He’s worried about stepping on flowers. He loves nature.

More than halfway now! Just look at that adorable vulture butthole; you know you can't resist the cuteness.

Prevention doesn’t look like DARE. Prevention looks like robust parental leave. A minimum wage adequate for a decent living. Well-funded public schools and after-school programming. Head Start. Healthy food. Community. Support for families. On-ramps to college. Safe housing for everyone.

I say it again and again: Because we don’t learn the real history of this country, we do not understand what this country is capable of. After 1870, 22 Black men served in Congress. By 1901, because of racist SCOTUS rulings, electoral coups and election cheating and violence, there were none.

Inside you are two giant worms...

And of course, AI can’t actually do this is the obvious thing, because AI cannot even try to imagine what this experience authentically feels like because it does not feel or imagine or understand anything at all Honestly a story about mental illness spat out by AI is existentially offensive

No, those Federalist Society debates weren’t a cost-free way to boost profiles and prove independence. The cost was just never going to be borne by the people participating.

The Voting Rights Act is essentially dead and it’s quite possible that we will, like when a similar SCOTUS gutted civil rights at the fall of Reconstruction, see a disappearance of much of the Black congressional representation, especially in the most heavily Black states, which are in the South.

And there it is. Not as bad as it could be, but pretty damn bad.

woke up in a cold sweat with the thought that one line posts should be called skittles

Heads up: it looks like *all* of Terry Pratchett's books are on US ebook sale for $2. I can't afford to get all of them, alas, but I'll be getting some. Even the Bromeliad books are on sale, so I will be getting those at least.

Without downloading anything new, where are you mentally?

They can't spread their pigshit in this field and it makes them crazy.

I’m here to vouch for long term shelter cats. My cat has been with me for about a year, but before that he spent FIVE! in the shelter. Not his fault he didn’t “show well” in front of strangers. It took a few months to win him over but now we are besties forever.

It was nice of him to hold the cat’s cigarette. Photo from my collection, no date/info.

The point at which a sane, morally principled award winning teacher who is angry about school shootings picks up a gun and thinks it’s the only way to make a difference is a bad place to be in. Dismissing him as a crazy person and blaming Dems is disingenuous and dishonest

I backed this; you should too! And if you don't know what I'm talking about go read Side Quested (sidequested.com) and THEN back the cute chaos vulture plushie!

tfw you loaded up on fuel to fly to pakistan and then the boss tweets that you’re not going anymore

I don't play tabletop games because it turns out I am extremely competitive in an exceptionally unpleasant way and I've spent too much time cultivating an air of genial support for others to blow it all on a game where the goal is to get happy bunnies to their comfy warren or whatever

Click through for links, Lenée's ask is pretty tiny. Maybe we can help her out and raise $100 today? Actually I tell y'all what, if we can get her that last $295 I will share pictures of my midlife crisis bad decision before they arrive on my property.

Omelas already exists: no need to build it or choose it. We already live here –in the narrow, foul, dark prison we let our ignorance, fear, and hatred build for us and keep us in, here in the splendid, beautiful city of life...

YOU SHOULD NOT FLIRT ... if the other person has no ability to exit. Can that barista just walk out? No? Right.

i’ve worked in tech more than 20 years. it has never been more ridiculous.

The richest man owns X. The second and fourth richest men control Google. The third richest man owns The Washington Post. The fifth richest man owns Facebook, Instagram, and WhatsApp. And now the sixth richest could soon take over both Paramount and Warner Bros. See the problem here?

Zero. Sympathy. They did this to themselves. Oh, and also? There definitely is an easy answer.

Just FYI there’s an account on here called @redditspaceviewes.bsky.social (with over 200k followers) that is posting a bunch of AI slop (including a “Saturn polar hexagon” with 8 sides) and claiming it’s NASA imagery. If you see anything posted by them, it’s likely fake.
