If you don't understand why it's grotesque to respond to attacks on synagogues and harassment of Jews by talking about Gaza and Zionism, think about what you'd think if/when a politician responded to an attack on a mosque by complaining about Saudi Arabia or the Taliban.

Every summer I become a monomaniac who only cares about Salads That Eat Like a Meal, and if you add as much veg as I did, this counts as a salad: www.recipetineats.com/sesame-noodl...

I saw someone posting "The A in LGBTA stands for Ace, not Ally!" and. Listen, as an Ace, if you don't think we belong at Pride, I got a brick for you. But if you think "I wish I belonged at Pride, but I'm not queer enough," or "I'm not sure that's me," you belong at Pride.

Friends...it's the start of Pride Month, so I'd like you to meet the amazing ribbon eel. Ribbon eels (likely) all start out male & then all become female later in life. And they rock both ways.

Hello from the endangered modernist masterpiece that is Pride Cleaners Architect: Gerald Siegwart, 1959

I will repost all the cool art and shitposts that are Pride themed, as you may have noticed by now.

Happy Pride month, from VGAPride and my 60mhz Pentium running MS-DOS.

happy pride 💕

Happy Pride Month. If you're a gay man, please remember your power. People often think that gay men are innately fashionable, which means if you wear some stupid shit for long enough, straight people, including homophobes, will copy you and then you can laugh at them.

🌈Happy Pride Month🌈

This is Bodie. His presence indicates the beginning of Pride Month. May his whimsy and steadfastness bring joy and confidence to all. 14/10 the parade starts right behind him 🌈🐾 (IG: hellobodie)

Happy Pride! Remember why we have it.

because Jurassic Park is trans rep

when a government system is badly designed, and officials act like it's the public's job to compensate. Like. It's not life-ruining, but c'mon. Is this public service?

you want me to read a pdf? The thing that killed Caesar?

I requested my library buy Linnea Sterte's A Garden of Spheres, and they said, "no, we can only buy things available from Amazon." And like, I get that libraries can't go on a trek to the caves at the top of the world for individual books, but really? The publisher sells it from a webpage.

Industry should stop inventing new kinds of rents to seek and invent a robot that will vacuum my stairs and then clean its own brush roll of all the dog hair

A thing that underwrites all city politics is that every city is a hostage situation where, as long as you pay the cops whatever they want, they will not turn their guns on you. Obviously no one says this out loud, because they guys with the guns get upset when you do, and no one wants them upset.

Not wrong. (also you could use it to beat a burglar unconscious, then toggle the cradle and call the cops)

Day 30 of #Coverbirds QUACK magazine publishes an annual Sexiest Duck Alive issue and who else could be on the cover but Ruddy Duck? Any questions? I didn’t think so (1/8) #birds

I believe this is, for the majority of cases, still true. It's harder to spot AI video than it's every been, but if you check the account and notice that they keep making the same general story-shape with the nouns changed around, that's a dead giveaway.

The sad person almost certainly does not exist. The family member telling you to check out their son/brother/daughter’s handmade crafts does not exist (and will look different ten reels down). The rude person at the farmers market sneering at them, smashing their pots, stomping the blanket? Nope.

2. A video game! Heaven's Vault from @inkle.co. You play a young archeologist in a strange space setting. It has language puzzles, *and* one of the best storylines ever, amazing engagement with reconstructing the past. store.steampowered.com/app/774201/H...

Whoever's buying streaming access to MMA fights with my email, write me an essay on abolition and I'll consider sending your confirmation code

Lovecraft: cthulu is really the peak of masculinity if you think about it Barker: oh yeah? how do you figure that? Barker: how do you define peak manliness howard Lovecraft: oh well that's obvious Lovecraft: peak male performance is a reedy academic given to fainting

Here's the serious bit for anyone who'd rather skip the 4000 words of jokes

Should I regauge this whole sweater to 31 sts/10 cm. It has the advantage of it's a big enough project that doing it, realizing I fucked up, and doing it again will definitely keep me from thinking about *gestures broadly* for a month and a half www.ravelry.com/patterns/lib...

When people ask for shipping supplies recommendations I do not hesitate to link refuseuline.com Quite literally I just reference this, there are so many options that are better and not evil.

As an anthropologist, I endorse this message!

Maybe owning more tiny knitting needles would set me right

If you're not deeply plugged into #wikipedia culture, it's very likely you haven't seen this, but a union-busting scandal is brewing at the wikimedia foundation! en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikiped... Many volunteer editors are mad about surprise layoffs last week and the seeming relation to #unionization

where do i go for the fresh Time Team memes, like "GeoFizz has found twelve-pence, and Stuart Ainsworth has discovered a roman villa and a viking burial"

apparently artillery guys have been naming their big fuck-off engines after women forever, and the reason we call guns "gun" is because once upon a time someone was like "We call this one Lady Gunhilda!" (www.etymonline.com/word/gun)

Ok hive mind! Help me pay an artist! 💰💸🤑 I’m looking for an established fiction developmental editor. Ideally, someone familiar with campy urban fantasy. The project is ~50k words, and I’m happy to pay by word or hour at a competitive rates. Thanks 🤓

Well done for trying your best, Steve!

I just signed into my google account to access a file saved in drive and it asked me for my motherfuckin *home* *address*?

People who make it through the second intermission in the vid show are so powerful

Shake it, baby! 🐢

The full ‘Heated Rivalry’ parody with Nadine and Ksenia!

there's a somewhat famous graph showing how artistic ability and the ability to perceive artistic ability do not keep pace with each other, but rather out of phase, causing one to be able to see flaws one is not able to correct, causing frustration.

I volunteer with BIJAN, and if you've ever thought about donating to the bond fund, please do so now -- the coffers are really, really low and it's heartbreaking to have to turn people away when a couple thousand dollars could get them free.
