Joke's on it, I almost always have my sound off.

We’ve been lucky to receive high-profile support since we started our campaign, and we know visibility and vocal allyship matters. It doesn’t come much higher than Sandi Toksvig, who’s done so much for women’s equality and inclusion. Thank you 🙏 notinourname.org.uk

Even long BEFORE genAI was a thing, I wouldn't cite a paper that someone just handed to me (even if it was my advisor) without first *at least* skimming it to make sure it actually said what the person said it said.

I must not fear; fear is the mind-killer.

If your genitals could speak, what would they say?

Same if your friend has a disability!

pro tip: if your friend has dietary restrictions and you respond to that with shit like "how do you live? how do you even function? i could NEVER live like that" 1. shut up 2. you're annoying thank you!

The Good, The Bad, The Ugly, and Grogu

Published in The New England Journal of Medicine. Peer-reviewed. Large sample size. Sound methodology. An antiviral pill has, for the first time, been shown to prevent COVID-19 in individuals exposed to SARS-CoV-2. Ensitrelvir blocks the enzyme coronaviruses need to make new copies of themselves.

This is often exactly how I feel socially. A tiny me is seated at a control panel covered in buttons, dials, and switches, all of them are labeled in hieroglyphs, I have no idea what any of them *actually* do, but I've slowly learned that people like it when you press some of them in certain orders.

A, E, I, O, U, and sometimes Y

Counterpoint: one of the most deeply emotional films I've watched in the last decade, centered around building friendship in unlikely circumstances and humanity uniting in the face of extinction, and with one of the best scores I've heard in a film since LoTR.

Ratios like this are what grant me my enormous powers.

There are three things I can't stand in this world: people who are intolerant of other people's cultures, AI slop meaning that lists of three are now suspect, and THE DUTCH!

My daughter's pithy summation: "Covid reminded people they lived in a society; and they hated it."

Coily the Spring Sprite took a weird job #MST3K

slightly increase a band linkin national park

We're seeing drops in traffic of 500%, 600%, sometimes even 1500%!

If I'd known 20 years ago that "doom" was a thing I could get a doctorate in, I'd have majored in a very different field.

This isn't *just* about the theft. Don't get me wrong, it is *definitely* about that. But, imho, there's something else to be seen here: this is the *only* way these data centers survive, is by theft. This isn't just about profit—it's existential. They WILL NOT continue to exist without theft.

Why does it look like Grogu is Force-pushing estradiol pills at me?

I'm one of those people who's always going to be salty about the powers-that-be making baseball "faster". Used to be that "here's the windup... and the pitch" meant something because prior to that it'd been five solid minutes of people talking and spitting and the batter kicking the plate.

He's the first Pope from Chicago, he's gotta be ready to dominate on the basketball court at any moment!

Didn't think it was possible, but somehow the French managed to make 'Dune Messiah' MORE horny.

He was very weary; the day had been long, and full of dragons.

Me: "May the Fifth be with you." Them: "Don't you mean May the Fourth?" Me: [taking a swig straight from a bottle of whiskey] "Nope."

Great, this is gonna set all this off again 🙄 Is @foldablehuman.bsky.social gonna need to make a sequel?

300 And Grogu

I can't really blame the dog, after all @hbomberguy.bsky.social assured me that horses aren't real.

I do this with my wife ALL the time, and that is also almost exactly her expression.

The Rocketeer (1991) is an underrated gem and I will die on this hill.

Why are you trans? (Wrong answers only) I was fed up with all my clothes having functional pockets

i think more types of business should have a cat that resides in them like bodega cats, i think it should be a law

This Is Just To Say I have turned off the AI features that were in the update and which you were probably hoping to monetize Fuck you they were stupid so unnecessary and so annoying

Tim Curry's true talent lies in his ability to be unreasonably horny even in roles that absolutely do not require it, and yet make it feel completely necessary not just for the role but for the entire film.

Me too, Bluesky. Me too.
