Oh. More g3noc1ding. Ok.

We love a good ol’ “fox guarding the henhouse” business decision

It’s pouring rain here right now. Out of left field. Not a hint of it in the forecast. Wild.

All I see is a Garbage Pail Kid… amazing.

I’m pretty grossed out that @burningman.org is still using Twitter to report traffic and gate times while their account here is totally inactive.

Well, dammit, Bill Moyers. Godspeed to you, and thank you for everything you brought to the medium. Your conversations with Joseph Campbell reconfigured my mind in a way few other ideas and dialogues have.

Colman Domingo to Tina Fey in “Four Seasons”: “God your face gets so loud sometimes!” I feel so called out.

Bay Area buddies... Anyone happen to have a spare ticket to Empire at the Greek tonight?

Be like Sam.

Attorney General Ken Paxton has filed a motion to appoint a Consumer Privacy Ombudsman in the 23andMe bankruptcy case to ensure that the highly sensitive personal and genetic information of Texans is safeguarded throughout the bankruptcy proceedings. www.texasattorneygeneral.gov/news/release...

One cannot help but wonder if the Curia will go the same way so many other bodies politic have in response to a liberal leader. That is to say, can we expect the next pope to be an arch-conservative? Even if Francis softened the College of Cardinals, alliances can be awfully powerful.

Is anyone having trouble with 2FA on United? I have tried all three available methods (app, sms, email) and nothing is working.

Since Cory Booker is rightfully getting a lot of positive attention I just want to add that he has very consistently been one of the only high-level politicians who actually cares about good drug policy and cares about hearing from people with lived experience in addition to other experts.

All I keep thinking about is how Pete Hegseth raised questions of the competency of a Black four-star general and Air Force fighter pilot who was the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff. Hegseth asked did he get the job “because of his skin color? Or his skill? We’ll never know, but always doubt.”

Can someone please take the transcript and throw it in NotebookLM and make a podcast out of it please? Thanks.

Let's be super clear that the REASON they used Signal was to set disappearing messages. They are intentionally violating federal record-keeping laws.

Like, do they ALL have brain worms??

I did not realize that I was wading into a misogynistic slop house when I started watching Homeland.

This is a Hitler-screaming-in-his-bunker-at-generals level of lunacy

Democracy dies in darkness, indeed. Kay Graham would not have believed this could happen in America.

The way an evening with folks you weathered many a storm with can fortify your soul.

I knew episode 8 of The Pitt was rough – I'd heard the buzz – but in no way was I prepared to sob for 20 minutes AFTER it ended. I think my whole body released a week's worth of sadness.

Welp, the GOP is finally getting the "trickle down" effect it's been harping on about for 45 years.

If you’re going to force me to look at Nazi salutes by using them as the images for the articles you publish, have the fucking decency to call it what it is. Provocative gesture? Literally what the fuck is wrong with you.

when the crowd cheers for the Nazi salute, what you have is a crowd full of Nazis

I’m stuck in meetings for a couple of hours and he proclaims himself king? I have no more spoons. None.

This is such a great example of how accessibility features (in this case, alt text) create a better experience for everyone. #a11y #accessibility

I understand why these stories exist but it’s important to be clear that he’s not “saving” 16 billion, he’s choosing, personally, without oversight, to wipe out 16 billion dollars of government services to veterans and the disabled and food safety etc etc

Measles high infection rate is the reason we have not yet been able to eradicate it. That rate means you need a very high vaccination rate to prevent outbreaks. It is possible, but not with current levels of institutional distrust.

New theory: Elmo put a neuralink in Drumpf and is just, you know, homonculusing him.

I for one am looking forward to bananas and coffee grown in Nebraska

Well if THIS isn't a GenX siren signal I don't know what is. cruelworldfest.com

Not every feature with "privacy" in its name is a privacy feature. Adding built-in #adfraud risks to the web browser doesn't just put legit ad-supported sites at a disadvantage, it creates risks for users www.adexchanger.com/data-driven-...

If I’m a business owner, I am immediately degendering all my bathrooms.

What do you mean, "it's not Thursday?!"

Not a clown show. Don’t fall into the trap of “they’re incompetent.” They’re not.

Hey, you know what’s fun about this current news cycle? It makes it SUPER easy to trigger an autoimmune flare. Take care of yourselves out there, kids. You’ve only got this one meatsuit.

SQUEEEEEE!! I still have my old Pebble. Nothing else has really ever been as perfect. I cannot wait to see what the OG founder does with this!

Make it stop. Please.

(Billy Idol sneer) It's a nice day for a…WET WILLY! It's a nice day to…STARTLE FRIENDS!

Something something Monopoly money and paper tigers.

REAL INTENSE CANCER DREAM LAST NIGHT. Because I was out of town my doctors sent me a scalpel in the mail and told me to cut it out myself. As my son said to me when he was four, “why does my brain show me things I don’t want to see?”

Entirely too relatable.

Even Ayn Rand is rolling in her grave at this one.

So that's fun.

What the actual FUCK. This is horrifying.

And now the ADL is being an apologist for an actual Nazi using a Nazi salute at the Inauguration.

This one is personal.
