Santa doesn't need to go down chimneys but he does because it soots him

First up: HOLY SMOKES, we got a live one, a bonafide treatment for ALS! 🧪 🩺 from @washumedicine.bsky.social source.washu.edu/2025/12/new-...

Make sure everyone at your job understands this

Please please please read this quote (2nd pic) from James Cameron on what the Avatar project really is. It’s absolutely disgusting.

TAKE YOUR TIME… NANCY IS THE BOSS AROUND HERE

Stop reposting AI pictures, I don’t care if you think they’re funny. I don’t want to see those stupid swollen Jake Paul faces again.

My friends, I say this with all the love in my heart: Right now might not be the moment for “But we should be TOLERANT and NUANCED about the plagiarism machines!” Your tolerance and “nuance” will be weaponised by the grifters and their apologists. Please respect yourselves more.

So I do incident investigations in a heavily regulated industry. It’s minor procedural manufacturing stuff mostly, but can impact safety/health of end users if not done. … in an investigation last week, two different engineer SMEs brought up that they asked AI & gave its answer. I was not pleased.

This is low key one of the most embarrassing things I’ve seen someone admit non-ironically. His big source to back up these claims? One of the ppl involved in its data gathering is in the comments pointing out the warning at the top…which explicitly says it doesn’t have the data Matt says it does.

The answer is: people have personal, political, and bodily autonomy. If a movement has meaningfully helped them accomplish that then it is good. If you are proposing to take that away from them because you are asserting they somehow can't be trusted to make their own right choices then you are bad.

My officemate doesn't understand how computers work #cat #cats #catsky

Will anyone be there to list off every item of food in the kitchen if I so much as glance in that direction?

welcome home to your parents’ house, the channels are Yellowstone, masterpiece mystery, and Jimmy fallon, btw someone from your high school died in a real weird way

Oh i forgot how cute baby gulls were for a second. 🪶 🐣

"Well Dr Wolf, unfortunately we've decided not to hire you. Because. Well, because frankly we've combed through your social media, and you're just not very bright." "I'm sorry did you just say because I'm so very white?"

Holy shit this actually worked

critical story about corruption among trump’s appointed leaders at FDA. very serious implications for drug safety

The Marshall Project is exploring all the ways menopause and perimenopause affect women behind bars. If you are a women’s health expert, formerly incarcerated, provide healthcare to people in prison, or have a loved one going through menopause behind bars — we want to hear from you.

Burdening the public with one’s private ailments, if presented without sufficient decorum, is a disadvantageous way to become the talk of the salon

Speaking as a connoisseur of shitty dingdongs fighting with each other in the most embarrassing way imaginable I am enjoying this thread quite a bit

This is the best piece I’ve read so far on why the Guinea-Bissau RCT, in which a proven life-saving vaccine will be deliberately WITHHELD, is unethical “When benefit is established, withholding an intervention is no longer neutral experimentation it becomes premeditated harm”

SEASON'S GREASONS

How your email DOESN’T find me

NEW: They kept saying they were gonna do it and now they've done it A group of clowns (Senators) have introduced a bill to FULLY REPEAL Section 230. No reform, no replacement, just utter destruction of all online free speech. We can't let this happen. Share & take action www.badinternetbills.com

Reminding everyone for no particular reason that Section 230 is one of the last things standing between free speech online and Trump having control over everything you see and say on the internet

A billion dollars is the socio-economic equivalent of a loose nuke, and we should work to prevent the acquisition of the former with the same urgency and ruthlessness we use to prevent the acquisition of the latter.

It me

if tumblr dies I need this video to make it's seasonal rotation here instead just in case, Happy holidays 🎄

Sure, trans people are weird. You know who else is weird? Literally everybody else, you chucklefucks, and anything you want to do them I insist you start by doing to me first. Let's fucking go you bigoted pieces of absolute shit I can do this all day.

The only losing issue about trans people is not accepting supporting and defending them, that's how we all lose, you capitulating collaborator fucks, fuck you.

Trans people are a "losing issue"??? PEOPLE are not "losing issues." They are who you protect and care for. They are who you take risks caring for and protecting. You saying trans people are a "losing issue" is antihuman and disgusting and proves you don't get the point of literally anything in life

I am filled with a rage that words can’t really do any justice this morning. I will get banned if I speak about what I want to do to these people. I wish I could do more as a cis person, I will continue to try to do more…but it’s hard not to give in to the seething rage and despair sometimes.

Sorry no trains or health care gotta spend 1.6 million dollars a minute on the military. totally sane country

still think usaid is the biggest story of the year

White men—30% of US population!!—are CEOs at 72% of Fortune 500 companies, direct 83% of the movies made in the US, serve as 70% of US Senators, & on & on. Their representation in key industries is at least double what their share of the pop predicts but it’s still not enough for them!

I think I was about 20 before I realized the lady in I Saw Mommy Kissing Santa Claus was kissing the dad. Before that I always just thought it was about a lady who really wanted to fuck Santa Claus, and who could blame her?

the unstated assumption of Yglesias saying that we need to be with the Nazis for Discourse Reasons is a presumed interest in finding common ground with or convincing Nazis to stop being Nazis. i'll just say that is not how i, personally, am interested in solving the Nazi problem.

I cannot begin to explain how hard Murderbot hit me. Still one of my major comfort reads.

Day 12 #artAdventCalendar is my #linocut of brilliant trailblazing US #geologist & prof Florence Bascom (1862-1945) 🧪🐡👩🏼‍🔬⚒️ #histsci who championed women’s education, & used polarizing microscopes for detailed petrographic analysis to show that rocks previously identified as sedimentary were in fact 🧵
