Unfortunately, in US journalism it is considered neutral to spread a lie, but it is considered "biased" to call out a lie. So, there is a structural asymmetry that rewards colorful lies with virality.

Mulder and Scully doing the meme before it was a meme.

Thus do I refute you.

@nuclearanthro.bsky.social If there's no ceiling, how strong does the floor have to be for us to launch all the Vichy bastards into the sun with an Orion drive?

I’m really scared not having much movement on my MA with little time left. This is really dangerous for my family I need serious attention and help!!!

Like literally. Strong floor, indeed.

Guys, guys, guys... "No take, only throw" is RIGHT THERE. THAT'S what Americans *really* want.

@jjgass.bsky.social can you boost this ask? bsky.app/profile/pope...

McCarthyism

Another example of why pregnancy is unsafe in America. You won’t have reproductive freedom. You could be criminally charged for pregnancy loss. You could be given drugs during labour and then reported to social services for a positive drug test. Despicable.

this might be the funniest email etsy has ever sent. I was not prepared.

Time to invoice the telegraph for using my illustration, I guess

I hope the Sony execs have an AI transcriber replace their hair tonic orders with nair

This shit is why I'm getting less and less work on anime and having to scramble to ask around with YouTubers for help letting me do their CCs just to pay my damn rent. There's enough anime to caption out there that I should not be fucking struggling.

😡🤬 I want a fucking programmable delay line that doesn't cost an arm and a leg, and the best option might be a fucking FPGA? Are you fucking kidding me? I just want a highly configurable LED driver

Great question I guess he was true patriot and she was a lowly National Guard member.

That's actually one of the things I find creepiest about the rural west. It's *so* *white*. In Virginia and North Carolina I had Black and Latino neighbors. The west is super segregated in a way I find really off-putting.

Quality effort at Ōtepoti Dunedin Santa Parade today F.A.B Virgil

Tragically, this decipherment was only necessary because of a one-man Spanish Inquisition, a deliberate, decades-long campaign by a single Catholic priest, Diego de Landa, to destroy the Mayan language & culture.

Time sensitive need, CashApp is the only way they can get money, last update $375 still needed! Please give if you can!

i think we should separate the terms: AI: science fiction stuff Machine Learning: niche useful stuff done by scientists LLM: obsequious chatbots built on mass scraping Reddit threads

I guess it's harder for dramatization but I'd expect an actual sneak attack with a nuke to be a deep sea glider going off in, say, San Diego. Any manned platform big enough to be a launch platform for an icbm is going to be tracked a dozen different ways.

Watching Lycoris Recoil, (saw a short with a lady in a giant hamster costume fake her death because it was basically a bomb disposal suit) Had a "oh no, I'm going to have to drop another series" when an episode started about panties, but, so far, not 🤮 causing perving?

"It's bad that it's 8 pm and you didn't eat anything all day" "I had a bite of that sandwich" 🤬😮‍💨

Someone has got to have already done the research. Why are antibalistic inflatables not a thing? Bouncy castle but uhmwpe/aramid

A Maine woman retired early to be a caregiver for her terminally ill mother. Now she’s facing cancer herself, and because ACA subsidies won’t be extended, she is losing her healthcare. Her costs are going up for $49,000 a year. This isn’t healthcare, it’s eugenics. Medicare for all.

France has a stronger claim to The Falklands than Argentina, but ultimately, the island's population has chosen to remain British via democratic referendum. Geographic proximity doesn't trump self-determination.

I need a dinosaur expert. Dinosaur experts please DM me

Fundraiser to pay for an emergency kidney procedure, anything helps we have less than $14.1k left to raise in less than 2 weeks to avoid medical debt truly anything helps. Shares and especially generosity would help a lot at this time, we are getting so close to our goal gofund.me/16ef32cb1

Anyway, I literally am short rent, due in six days, because the anime workflow I once had in spades has run dry thanks to nonsense like this. If you're a content creator who could use captions for a video, please consider commissioning me. 113 minutes of video by next Thursday could make it happen.

instead of "an expert" I would use the word "adept," to avoid the unintended and false implication of expertise in statistics being bifurcated -- "to lie" or "to be truthful" -- as symmetric applications, like prosecution or defense

11 stars, not 13. They're not praising Lincoln, they're saying the confederacy ultimately will win.

45 minutes left!!!

Important 🧵. I want to make a couple of points. 1) SOCOM should be dismantled because it doesn't understand it's job. Officially it's a global, not geographic, combatant command. Its job is to manage the global SOF enterprise, including be the joint proponent for most, but not all SOF functions. 1/

There's an urgent recall on a subset of FreeStyle Libre 3 and FreeStyle Libre 3 Plus — they show FALSE LOW GLUCOSE READINGS. The website to check the serial number of your sensors is www.freestylecheck.com/us-en/home.h...

*This* is the America I grew up believing in, and will always work to achieve.

Autopen is used because Sleepy Donnie needs his nappy-times between being pumped full of Adderall and having his catheter bags swapped out and his diaper emptied. "What the President Does" is a roulette wheel of which Cabinet member has spoken to him last, and there's policy "freelancing" going on.

Exclusive: Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth gave an order to “kill everybody” in the first strike on suspected drug boats in the Caribbean. After two men survived, the mission commander ordered a second strike to comply with Hegseth’s instructions, according to two sources.

Ask yourself why there wasn’t this level of wall to wall coverage for this shooting wgme.com/news/local/i...

Haha holy shit. Unbound nonsense just keeps going and going. This was the publisher that made you crowdfund your own advance and pay for editors/designers/etc btw.

Have I got a book for you if you weren't taught historic US immigration policy. My book about how the US migration & citizenship policy history and law, from the colonial period to 1888 is available for pre-order for March 10, 2026 delivery. Order info in the link on my bio.

And still, there are those who say that Americans can’t do irony.

ordered food here. the server did 7 frame-perfect turnarounds in a row and launched themselves through the door speeding past my table at 700km/h but the plate was perfect. 5 star service, would eat here again

Godamn ants Good news, they're almost all going for the bait (honey and 5% borax) and only a few are running around Bad news, sooooooo many ants 😬

We're hosting an emergency fundraiser to help fund a kidney procedure, this account is ran by someone in the US and is currently uninsured and we need support. Currently we're $14.7k away from meeting our goal and avoiding medical debt, any bit helps gofund.me/16ef32cb1
