I love that twitter nazis pretended the left was upset about Clinton being in the files and it turns out not even Clinton cares. I like to think someone had a chat with him and it was like "everyone already knows you're a fucking creep. this is your last chance to look good before you die"

why would I do this to him, my only son

It’s hard for me to pick my favorite Xmas movie bc there are so many sub-categories: nostalgia, comedy, action…but tonight’s is at the top of most lists, including non-xmas.

One funny thing about weird hair color is that it drives predators away for at least two years after you grow it out

ICYMI bc I made this live pretty late yesterday. I’ve yet to find a single “save the children” social media ban that isn’t just a sneaky way for big corporations to make more money, usually while violating our privacy and making us all less safe.

📽️🎞️

Yesterday I was texting with a friend and mentioned Hebrew Hammer but she'd never heard of it, so I tried to find where it was streaming. Reader: it has BEEN DISAPPEARED!!! Apparently they tried to make a sequel where he kills Hitler & it never happened. This is antisemitic.

I wish I were surprised to learn that Australia's ban on social media for kids under 16 was pushed by an ad firm to get the government to stop considering a law that would ban online gambling ads. skepchick.org/2025/12/aust...

Blessing your timeline with a rare holiday Indy

do you hate scrooged or do you just hate me saying every line .5 second before every line of this PERFECT MOVIE

it’s called “class,” look it up

For my husband's birthday, I got him tickets to see one of his favorite bands, Nine Inch Nails. They don't do physical tickets, so I bought a template on Etsy & printed them out on cardstock. Since I had the cardstock, I also asked a friend to make a NiN-themed card. She Nine Inch Nailed it.

Occasionally Instagram tricks me into clicking on Threads. This is the first time EVER I’ve seen something there that delighted me

tonight’s christmas movie: I’m not trapped in here with you. you’re trapped in here with me

Over the past decade it's been fascinating watching Pinker realize that the idiots he's associating with are going to fuck up his life just a minute too late: Epstein, the "IDW," the "War on Science" book, this. There's something poetic about it. What rake will he step on next

actual name TK

this is how jordan peterson beat benzos

current state of head cold

Harvard physicist Avi Loeb has escalated his "It's Aliens!!!" bullshit to the point where he appears to be driving people to psychosis. This is bad! Thanks to @astrowright.bsky.social for laying it all out so clearly skepchick.org/2025/12/alie...

me: I'm really enjoying this wholesome comedy about a single Inuk mother living in a small town in the Canadian Arctic. I wonder what kind of reviews it got a top search result from r/television:

I kept putting off "prioritizing my health" until the past few months when I got tennis elbow, then as it healed I crashed my bike, and now as the bruises are healing I have a horrific head cold. In this thread, I'll detail the way this has inspired me to change my behavior moving forward. 1/1

In the comments under every video where I talk about the data and history of civil resistance, there’s inevitably one guy arguing for open warfare. I always call them a cop bc either 1) they are or 2) they will be so ashamed to be mistaken for the worst kind of person on earth that they’ll stfu

One way that the reaction to Rob Reiner's murder mirrors Charlie Kirk's is that the best way to eulogize each of them is to quote their words, and in both cases, doing so pisses off conservatives.

I know everyone is excited for when It Happens, but I really don't think I'll derive much satisfaction from it unless a guillotine is involved.

I just woke up and this is the first thing I saw. After searching the news I was shocked that there’s no evidence (yet) that the (possible) murderer is a Trump supporter. He is just…fantasizing about that. That someone murdered for him.

I used to run an entire network of blogs. The server cost $600/month and the ads on my posts alone paid about $300/month. Eventually the ad revenue dropped while I got constant legal threats from quacks & copyright vultures. Now I run 1 blog with only my own posts for an archive when Patreon dies.

idk who this influencer is but I do know he’s a giant piece of shit for hanging out in an airport lounge without a mask on while he’s sick. If he kills Ringo I hope someone beats the shit out of him.

Boiled water for my neti pot and it was still too hot when I poured it in and the plastic got all soft and now I feel safe from brain eating parasites but pretty certain I’m gonna be shooting microplastics straight into my thinky meat

Tonight’s Christmas movie is the debunking of Steven Pinker’s The Blank Slate, which premiered two decades prior to that book

on the downside, I woke up with a sore throat. on the upside, I remain UNDEFEATED

he needed a bath anyway so I didn’t stop him from rolling in something on our hike. it was so rank that other people on the trail gagged when he ran past. now we’re both annoyed.

oh hell yeah I love Bill Bailey and am so glad to read this! I used to love Richard Ayoade until he blurbed Linehan as “a man of great principle” and realize he has none

Until my husband got citizenship, we decided to avoid flying anywhere. At some point it felt kinda silly to even avoid quick domestic flights that didn't involve an int'l terminal, so we did a trip to Vegas. Suddenly it doesn't seem silly.

A music site shared David Byrne’s playlist for “people who hate Christmas music”. It was Spotify & while I love Xmas & Byrne, I am an OG Spotify hater bc they pay Joe Rogan to spread nonsense (& now advertise for ICE). I expressed my annoyance to my husband who REMADE THE PLAYLIST FOR ME on Apple

Earlier this year, the Supreme Court ruled that parents could opt their children out of being in a classroom at the same time as a picture book about two hamsters getting married. Now that decision may lead to kids dying of preventable diseases, because this is Hell. skepchick.org/2025/12/anti...

I’ll be so sad if it turns out jordan peterson is dead and it’s not for something AT LEAST as funny as the time he flew to Russia to get someone to do put him into a coma so he could sleep through Xanax withdrawal like he did in 2020 www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

On a hike today, my friend & I approached a fork. She stopped and pointed at the right side. I said, "No, we go left, remember?" Bc earlier we were confused by this exact intersection. That's when I realized she was pointing because we were obviously walking in circles. How have we not died yet

There's a portion of my audience that absolutely hates how smug and condescending I am when it comes to discussing stupid people. I hope they're sitting down. skepchick.org/2025/12/anot...

This is great because it demonstrates that transphobes actually do know that gender has nothing to do with anatomy or genetics. These are gingerbread men despite having no penis or testicles, and DNA that is mostly butter.

One downside to accidentally buying an extremely well-built midcentury house on bedrock is that I LIKE the excitement of a little earthquake that does no damage, but no one in our house or neighborhood has felt a single jolt of our recent swarm. This means that when I DO feel it, I need to worry.

maturity is this: *rewatching Lethal Weapon bc it rules despite Mel Gibson being a piece of shit * knowing it is a Christmas movie * realizing Danny is JACKED and has a perfect family and is a good person IRL and mel only beat gary busey by squeezing his neck w his thighs then cuddling Danny

called it

The New York Times is bad and no one should read it ever and definitely no one should play the free games on their app. Okay, that said, it's so annoying they reset Sudoku at like 3pm PT. It's not even the next day in New York! Give me a fucking minute. Not that I play it, as that would be wrong.

rode my bike to the mailbox w panniers full of cards for patrons. This is one of my favorite winter traditions now. Advice needed: would it be creepy if I drop off some of the Bay Area cards in person? I can see how it might be and I don’t wanna freak anyone out but some of these are bikable

Yep! This is what happened to us: my partner passed his test and then was sent home and told to wait for a letter about the oath ceremony. We had a few weeks of anxiety before he finally got to take it. We’re lucky to have good jobs w flexible schedules to afford & navigate the process.

me: religion is so embarrassing me listening to John Denver and the Muppets: A Christmas Together: god is real and he made a little frog puppet to tell us to be good to each other

An "AI" I would actually use: a little alert letting me know 30 days later that it was gonna go ahead and delete these photos for me

watching a commercial for a drug called “cobenfy” makes me realize we could crowdsource the end of Big Pharma advertising by listing every possible syllable mashup and mocking it before it can be trademarked. Cobenfy—for when Pablux isn’t enough.

the context is that I made a youtube video where I say that raising a 3-month old puppy was harder than i thought
