me, age 22: these political shitheads are knownothing incompetents me, age 32: I should give politicians the benefit of the doubt, when they certainly have access to information I don't have and which shapes their choices me, age 42: these political shitheads are knownothing incompetents

"Are there even any-" it doesn't matter. Banning the few trans athletes isn't the point. The point, from Trump's ban on trans people in government to Britain's bathroom ban to Newsom's sports ban, is to make sure everyone knows trans women are OTHER and to act accordingly to us in their daily lives.

Happy There Is A Circulatory System Walking Through The Kitchen Day to all who celebrate.

Cowards die many times before their deaths, The valiant never taste of death but once.

On this eve of fifty Novembers the winds still howl the bell still tolls. My breath turns heavy as we drift into the long cold night. The Fitzgerald stirs beneath. I harbor their echoes and cradle her steel. My waves bear the sorrow of all I have taken.

as the various names of Geneva in various languages go, "Genf" is clearly the worst like, seriously? Genf? that's the sound you make when someone punches you in the stomach

only the first snow of the year, and already I've successfully slipped and fallen while shovelling! ("successfully" because I did not injure myself)

my grandfather joined the British Army when he was *fourteen* because he was one of five brothers and the year was 1930 becoming a child soldier is not the sort of thing you do when you have economic options

dang, not like other forgs I've seen

it's funny, without the assistance of words like "an," I might never know that there are people who pronounce FAQ by reading off the individual letters rather than as "fakk"

✋ Because I am neither a hack nor a quisling, and I retain my sense of self-respect

Snow!

Yeah :D

About 6 hours in and over $1000 raised! Come say hi!

"Ganymede, unlike Mars, has a magnetosphere, which helps repel away solar winds and therefore makes the surface of Ganymede comparatively safer than that of Mars." found on TVTropes, but I would not be surprised that this was the same logic that the writers used to make it a farm (and not Callisto)

among all the things that bug me about the Expanse series, something I haven't seen much discussion on: how Martian society more-or-less immediately crumbles as soon as extrasolar settlement becomes possible, because the writers want that to happen.

the end point of "sapphic means absolutely nothing"-marketing will be a cartoon series called Sappho And Friends' New Adventures on Lesbos where the first episode is about Sappho's bestie being nervous about a date with a guy she met

So you end up with a steam explosion happening *inside you*, simultaneously mechanically shredding your flesh and broiling it, leading to a rapid evacuation of shredded, partially-broiled flesh from the wound in the form of something resembling chunky salsa.

my biggest criticism of the Star Wars sequels is that since J.J. Abrams clearly cannot achieve orgasm without first destroying a planet, the narratives of the films are contrived to bend toward that end

SOCRATES: No god is a philosopher or seeker after wisdom, for he is wise already; nor does any man who is wise seek after wisdom. PLATO: Neither do the ignorant seek after wisdom. DARRYL, SOCRATES AND PLATO’S FRIEND: well well well if it isn’t the blowjob brothers

GTA VI delayed until 2026 so that Rockstar can add more business names that would seem funny if you were a British man in the mid-2000s

did a lot better than I expected on my Japanese lesson today. also I've been drinking. clearly the conclusion is to drink more while language learning so I stop second-guessing myself.

"Curtis LeMay is Burning in Hell" would be a good title for something

the thing that's always pissed me off about the Star Trek TNG game for the SNES is that it fucks up the planet names. if you're expanding on the Bayer designation, the Greek letter comes before the constellation! Mu Codis VI, not Codis Mu VI!

bring back maligning racism as the mark of a stupid person. prejudice is the mark of an idiot. if you believe that shit i bet you also don’t wipe your ass

Just need everyone to Google the name "Rosalind Franklin" at this moment.

I LEARNED THE ANSWER TO THIS Chris's Steakhouse was a New Orleans landmark Chris Matulich periodically got bored, sold it, waited for the new owner to fail, and bought it back cheap The sale conditions: Can't move it, can't change the name He did this six times Then he sold it to Ruth Fertel

The haters said they couldn't do it. And they were right. Honestly, great call from the haters.

i know i have determination because i'm still preparing to write this novella even though my experience tells me it's almost certain that it will end up going nowhere and gathering electronic dust inside my hard drive

as far as I'm concerned, timeless comedy gets that way because of sheer absurdity

Yeah I looked upon Cthulhu's dread visage and I was fine. Big octopus on a man's body. Not exactly "difficult to comprehend." Maybe you guys should go outside more idk

the collapse is coming. the infinite tech money loop might be ending soon

Wondering why no one likes your posts anymore, even among your friends? It's because @jay.bsky.team and team have decided to hide a huge amount of content from all of our feeds by default. Here's how to turn it off. First go to the hamburger menu in the upper left corner

I spit on the reputation of the U.S. Supreme Court, not that it can get much more degraded than it has already become by the repulsive actions of its disgusting GOP members. You can hear the transphobic sneer in these words.

imagine: a setting where quick interstellar travel is possible through lanes that send outbound travellers into the future and inbound travellers into the past from the perspective of their departure point, but ordinary people keep calling it FTL anyway and scientists everywhere are infuriated

If this meme makes sense to you, congratulations: you have spent your 35 to 45 years on this earth well
