Today is also the anniversary of FDR's signing of Executive Order 9066, which authorized the forced removal of 120,000 Japanese Americans from the West Coast. February 19—not a great day in American history!

I think its very funny that I will have A Symptom™ and I know I have a condition, and am even on medication!, that could cause That Symptom™ and still I'm like, "eh its just my brain making it up, I'm probably dehydrated"

transmasc cloud send skeet.

Nobody is saying the Democrats are exactly the same as Republicans wrt trans rights. What we are saying is their acceptable compromises aren't acceptable to us. I will not share a tent with people who are fine with our segregation and second-class status.

I do think its insane I have to write a two page long email with citations to my CEO to justify what we're working on and that we did in fact talk about this 3 months ago.

The LAPD is citing truancy laws in an attempt to squash the ongoing school walkouts against ICE. The LAPD is also threatening to arrest any parents or adults who support the kids in their acts of civil disobedience.

it's wild to be rooting FOR big pharmaceutical companies. RFK Jr needs to be ground into a fine paste

In terms of what cures are being lost: - Epstein-Barr virus is perhaps the major trigger for multiple sclerosis - herpes simplex virus causes cold sores, genital herpes, infections in babies, deadly meningitis - shingles virus causes an intensely painful disease

lol. lmao.

They're calling HRT a "sex-rejecting procedure" now. I guess that means my wife gives me HRT every night!

we should go back to keeping the internet in a room you can leave

I think Mr Beast is our generations Ophra but he's way worse (matching our generation world suckage)

The Post and the Furious: Tokyo Draft

Omg first draft saved.

DRAFTS??? DRAFTS????? DRAFTS????????

Time to pretend my inability to use discord was actually a moral high ground I was taking the whole time.

Kinda wild how I enjoy each of my teammates individually but as a team they are so low energy and lazy that its unbearable at times.

I'm convinced AI is our generation's radium - a discovery with genuinely useful applications in specific, controlled circumstances that we stupidly put in everything from kid's toys to toothpaste until we realised the harm far too late where future generations will ask if we were out of our minds.

Ngl kinda sucks to see your country get boo'd and both a) enjoy it and b) feel it's deeply deserved. But also I feel for those athletes.

I need more drag kings in my life.

I used to love computer it was my friend. Now I have hate in my heart

if you can't accept that great authors were creeps and weirdos you simply can't be a fan of science fiction

I have decided that because I was NOT invited to a nice demo meeting where all the other team leads were, I'm not gonna stay here. Like unless I get my promotion in the next month (doubtful) there's no point in being at a place that has only given me more work with zero recognition.

It is literally too early in the morning to be having an existential crisis over the worth of my work and the meaning of my life and YET HERE I AM BAYBEEE

VOLUNTEER ON A DINOSAUR DIG: We run one of the only free dinosaur digs in the USA. We work public land and the fossils go in our public museum, forever. It's hard work, but we find some cool things. If this sounds like you, we're taking applications. Link in comms. #dinosaurs

i am trying not to joke about the Epstein stuff because it's so horrible but there's also this ridiculous element where it's like... discovering Dracula is real, he's taken over human society at the highest levels, he's involved in tons of evil and also he's a huge dipshit

Literally decided to start interviewing to leave this morning then I had a user meeting today and Horny was there giving some good suggestions and insights and when I say it was sooo revitalizing to talk to weirdos and perverts about shit the kindness, the sincerity, the love. Crawling thru glass 4u

shout out to my boss who reschedule my 1v1 after I spent last night outlining how I'm going to ask about my stalled promotion lmao

Do you think it might have been a mistake to make the machine where we're supposed to get all our work done the same machine that we use to talk to everyone we've ever met, experience every song and movie ever made, watch porn, play video games, and fight to the figurative death with total strangers

some people think "posted 50 or more times yesterday" is a serious black mark, but I'm here to tell you it's the "no gap in posting longer than 4 hours" people to watch out for

The American People's Princess

Re-sharing, still looking for folks.

It will take us a while to relearn how to think about photos the way we do words or drawn images -- an expression of opinion rather a document of reality, except, ideally, when credentialed and moderated by some form of intellectual review. but in many ways they were always that

Last night, at least one federal agent shot me multiple times w/ pepper balls in my leg after they dispersed hundreds of protesters away from the MDC driveway on Alameda Street in DTLA. I was covering the protest for @lataco.bsky.social. This is the 2nd time I've been shot by the feds since June.

BREAKING: The two federal immigration agents who fired on Minneapolis protester Alex Pretti are identified in government records as Border Patrol agent Jesus Ochoa and Customs and Border Protection officer Raymundo Gutierrez.

I think it's cool when in a relationship your morality lines up in the Perfect Way™

Just got gassed pretty good at the labor union anti-ICE protest in Portland. Massive march, 5-10k strong. Vibes were very much liberal rather than radical. Lots of kids and older folks. They gassed the whole crowd as soon as it marched on ICE, in broad daylight.

Screamed so loud the cat on my lap almost bolted at that fucking shotgun scene lmaooooooo

Getting crossed and watching platoon for the first time, as one does.

I am once again angered that all evil people are not smart Hannibal Lectors but are much more malevolent Beavises

SCOOP: 404 Media is publishing a version of the user guide for ELITE, a tool Palantir made for ICE which brings up dossiers on individual people and provides a “confidence score” of their address. The full user guide here:

Jeffrey Epstein Sent Five Nights At Freddy's Porn Via 4Chan Links, Emails Show

Anti-DHS protesters in LA moved a huge dumpster, partially blocking agents in their building.

It's near-white out conditions in Chicago as the snow comes down, and tonight's anti-ICE/CBP rally is wrapping up in front of city hall. But not before the crowd bounces and chants, "I believe that we will win!"
