I started reading this and became so discombobulated by the argument that I have decided to retire to my quarters for the day. Goodbye!

what if trump’s dying of some rare, secret disease and “the ballroom” is a last ditch effort to secretly research and develop a cure to save him, and the country 😉

“wow, you have so many healthy jade plants around your house!” thanks, I grew one big one that I accidentally knock over a lot 😅

ah, empathy is an original sin to these weird catholic converts but sympathy? light that shit and pass it, I guess

I think breadth is important, so this isn’t necessarily a brag, but I haven’t listened to a whole Drake song in 14 years

my older kid often texts me about the news because her class watches CNN 10 every morning. a couple of weeks ago, she asked me about hantavirus (which was followed up by a call from my younger about the epidemiology of the disease). yesterday before bed she asked me about the latest ebola outbreak.

Wemby taunting SGA lol

repost James Handlefini for one year of good luck

as someone who has both worked at a dealership repair shop and purchased new automobiles, I wish “traditional car dealers” the absolute fucking worst

I think this take crashed bluesky

When I’m watching a basketball game, I want them to use the weirdest camera angles possible. Anything is cool with me, so long as it makes it harder to figure out what’s going on. I watch to be confused.

great let's get this over with

you ever read something so french that you need to go flirt with someone who is not your spouse

back in 2014 I did this three times a week for lunch at a family owned thai joint. got to know the whole family, occasionally got free meals around the holidays (still tipped) and even got to try new meals they were working on.

really gotta hand it to him for this one

After years in DC with necrotic non-voting House representation, weird to be represented by the House Dem who's immediately on top of everything www.youtube.com/watch?v=0nOB...

I am getting my entire ass handed to me today, my god

seamus malekafzali in the new parapraxis talking about Iranian monarchies, what a kick ass day

really wish the IDF would stop kidnapping Alex Colston

I have intrusive thoughts about cornelia de lange syndrome every day of my life and sometimes it feels like the universe is fucking with me

today? fifteen coffees

One of my thoughts when Polis was first elected governor was "Oh neat! He's the first gay man to be elected governor anywhere in the U.S.! That's pretty neat!" And then for the next seven years, it's just been one "Please stop governing like a weirdo and making LGBTQ people look bad" after another.

Not nearly enough reporting about what's happening in Cuba, which the administration is attempting to squeeze, punish, and coerce into submission and violent self destruction. This is so much worse than the embargo. It's hideous. Haiti, Cuba, ongoing boat strike murders: anti-Black foreign policy

The WHO is declaring a global health emergency due to the sudden spread of Ebola virus in the Democratic Republic of Congo and Uganda. Dr. Craig Spencer, a public health expert and an Ebola survivor himself explains what we know so far.

Israel has kidnapped the sister of the president of Ireland.

gender discourse is funny because it can inadvertently reveal that some folks simply hate the people in their lives lol

having a dog with herding instincts is so funny because sometimes she’ll stare at me while I’m doing something in the yard, as if to say, “what the fuck are you doing?” and it’s like, girl, whatever the fuck I want

exactly! for me it is an act of self-harm

Herbie Hancock showing Quincy Jones how to use the Fairlight CMI synthesizer - one of the first commercially available digital samplers Herbie was an early adopter, using the $80,000 machine to compose and arrange, "Rockit," his classic work of early hip-hop/electro/jazz fusion.

this is simply one of the best names on earth, a delight to say

“What profit a man to gain the whole world if he don't have time to gloat?”

mine was definitely batman and robin….very distinct memory

Once again gonna point out that these cats were saying this in 93

cal ripken jr. gave my undergraduate commencement speech, which was predominantly a monologue about how getting hit in the head with a fastball helped teach him to be less of a piece of shit

👍 👍

If you took all of the pollution produced by data centers and dispersed it across the entire landmass of the continent it's effectively zero. What about locally around a specific data center? Ah hold on my wifi is acting up.

this is what makes me feel completely fucking insane. Israeli abuses in Palestinian prisons are *modern history* and have been well documented for decades and yet - still! - a bunch of journalists today are playing “he said / she said” with Israel’s continued horrific crimes against humanity

Washington Post in 1979: U.S. State Dept. found Israeli "abuse during interrogation of arrested Palestinians," including "refrigeration, use of electricity, hanging by the hands or feet, extreme forms of sexual sadism, interrogation accompanied by starvation, enforced sleeplessness"

I’m a character in a movie! I just fired a gun indoors! I can hear completely fine afterwards! I’ll go ahead fire it a bunch more times without any damage to my hearing! bang bang haha!!!!!!!!!

pushing out diverse people to accommodate diverse views about those people's inferiority, be fucking serious

Sy Ableman??

Xavier Becerra was HHS secretary from 2021 to 2025. In that time, 800K Americans died of COVID-19 as the U.S. reopened amid the pandemic and dropped federal relief. Why isn’t anyone talking about it?
