Did you know you can shrug and say "No can do boss" when a court orders you to do something

Hi everyone! My name is Andrea LaFlamme and I'm running to unseat Susan Collins in the US Senate. I'm a feminist public health professor and the ONLY candidate in this race who has worked in education, municipal health, and as an elected union leader. (1/2)

Danglin’ Pangolins… Because - why not? Late for #worldpangolinday but here we all are Available ko-fi.com/s/f5de438a68 #pangolin #art #pangolinart #bsnm

The first superman comic was published in 1938. Sigmund Freud died in 1939. That means there was a real possibility that Freud wacked off to a picture of Lois Lane.

Given the choice between the irradiated hellscape of post-nuclear Sheffield and another Zuckerberg social media platform, I can't be entirely certain I wouldn't choose gnawing on a dead rat in the remains of Atkinson's department store.

My GOD Threads is awful. I was going to add a whole list of reasons, but I can’t improve on that

I keep reinstalling Threads because Instagram shows me a truncated post and I think “What does it say? What is this??” and the answer is always Something Stupid From A Dickhead

I remember when ‘Brexit Means Brexit’ became a way for silly people to insist that they supported something they could neither justify nor explain. Obviously the context is very different, but something similar is already happening with the ‘war’ in Iran. And it’s mostly the same people doing it.

My superpower is noticing a typo ten minutes too late.

“I have usernames older than you.”. Holy shit

THREAD: We just released a tool that allows you to search billions of dollars in wealth, ties to the most powerful companies in the country, and details of the personal finances of President Trump and over 1,500 of his appointees. Here’s how it works 1/

I bet calling it a “solar system” gave the sun a big head

Wrong, asbestos actually successfully performed its intended function

Seems like a good year to try to bring back asbestos insulation if that's your thing

Strong recommend if you are interested in cosmology. The videos are succinct – most around 6 minutes long – and the explanations are satisfying. Same goes for the "Quantum 101" videos.

She's right, you know.

Sorry I know the world is in a terrible fix but I've been laughing at this for ten minutes now

Elected Democrat Thrilled He Doesn't Have To Do Anything

Am I the only person who hears the refrigerator stop running and it feels like such a relief from something you didn’t know was causing you to set your jaw until you released your jaw when the noise stopped

I've literally never heard any military talk as much about how they totally aren't running out of munitions and now I'm wondering why they keep harping on it

okay I'll bite what's a kristi noem

Soak testing the Beeb after replacing a suspected faulty 6502... and now we play the waiting game! Thrust is a good test as it's demo mode keeps the chip active (and it reliably crashed every 20 minutes or so before with the old 6502...)

Did you just hear the ICQ ᵘʰ⁻ᵒʰ! when you read this post

Buckle up kids, this is an astonishing story that — as Douglas Adams once said — could only happen to a writer …

Here’s a fun story. Erika and I are on our way out to grab lunch when there’s a knock on the door. I go to answer and there's the mailman and he's holding a copy of my book. Which is odd. Why is the mailman holding a copy of my book? He hands it to me. I open it up and it’s signed. "To Jared."

“It reminded me of the quote that is often attribute to George Orwell that states, 'Don't tell him your name, Pike.'”

this is what it feels like to post on bluesky

I wonder how many corrections I'll get for this?

George Orwell: "Don't tell him your name, Pike!"

SCOOP: Proton Mail provided Swiss authorities with payment data that the FBI then used to determine who was allegedly behind an anonymous account affiliated with the Stop Cop City movement in Atlanta, according to a court record reviewed by 404 Media.

There’s good computer and bad computer. Good computer makes you smarter, bad computer makes you stupid. Bad computer is winning

Andrew Neil lives in a mansion in France that he moved to using EU rules where he doesn't pay any tax in the UK. And he spends his time moaning about the EU he chooses to live in and the poor state of the UK, which is due to tax dodgers like him.

On NJ Transit on the way home and the train just died. Just another day/reminder of how “the richest and most powerful nation in the world” cannot do mass transit. We can afford a war and build concentration camps, but not mass transit.

Do you think that before we had houses, they called them cave flies?

Letting Kristi Noem give a press conference before she realizes she’s fired is a pretty hardcore start to white history month

True. I’ve been to Luton.

Steve-O was on Joe Rogan's show trying to defend trans people and Rogan went off, he called trans people "fucking perverts" and "mass shooters" who have done the majority of school shootings. Completely unhinged bigotry paid for by your Spotify subscriptions.
