Colorado seems to single handedly be keeping the dream of the self serve frozen yogurt place alive

I can’t wait to get my med bed card to admit me to the new med bed hospital. This is what’s going to fix me.

Most people who write about politics, right or left, have internalized the concept of the Trump supporter as the authentic american Volk and so many of their conclusions proceed from that bsky.app/profile/qjur...

as a always flu shot getter it’s always interesting to me how the flu shot is often where even generally vaccine-friendly people lean antivax

Trump is building a personalist regime where every university must bend the knee or lose funding and every business must bend the knee or face tariffs, H-1B fees, and regulatory blackmail. You can't cover each domain in isolation; they are all the same story.

it pisses me off so bad when a transit agency doesn’t fare cap or where they have some sort of unclear way to get linked into the system that fare caps

I think you can divide the US into cities where 1) everyone wears blundstones (Durham obviously in this group) and 2) no one wears blundstones and frankly I’m shocked I haven’t seen anyone other than me wearing blundstones in Denver

nobody on earth wishes you more harm than the people in power and their financial backers

rebranding Medicare for all as medbeds for all and winning all 50 states

Am I watching things on television that are different from what's happening?

the pro-life comments from klein really are galling because despite his constant hectoring about persuasion, klein doesn't make any attempt to explain why he thinks pro-life democrats can win back red/purple seats. he presents it as a given without making the case.

one of the major problems with trying to navigate any major us city on foot arises as soon as you need to use a bathroom. what is it like to live somewhere where using the bathroom isn’t illegal.

Eric Adams has received the promise of a MedBed slot in exchange for dropping out lol

hyperfixating on the 1998 classic album by Manu Chao, “clandestino”

Denver feels like a great place to be vehicularly manslaughtered by a fully electric hummer

fuck you and your unwalkable city. i'll die crossing this damn road if i have to

In a nightmarish unethical psychological experiment at a hotel where they’ve locked the tv settings so you can’t turnoff motion smoothing

Ohio State history professor Hasan Kwame Jeffries — Hakeem Jeffries’s brother — is on Charlie Kirk’s professor watchlist, and he has some interesting quotes in this!

the place with the worst vibes in any city are commercial areas that have been designed to be insanely inconvenient to use transit to get to (or leave)

The rebranding of reactionary gender and biological essentialism as “heterodox and challenging ideas to which liberal students must be exposed” is one of the greatest achievements of our stupid era. Congratulations to the reactionary centrists who helped make it happen - you dupes, you utter dolts.

Extremely late to watching “civil war” and I kind of wish I’d done it closer to the release date so it would fill me with less looming dread

The NFL is like Big Tobacco, then. Forever "studying" an issue they KNOW they've had evidence of FOR DECADES. The only reason the league & sport are still around is bc USians esp love gladiatory violence. Heck, if they could mix Amer football w/guns (ala The Last Boy Scout), they would.

this is the ideal Houston house

is this good

me posting from like 2005: its so insane that they expect me to believe tina on the l word is 14 weeks pregnant when the actress looks like 32 weeks pregnant. be so fucking for real right now.

So far there have been zero trans women reported as having visited epsteins pedo island. But lots of people who want you to think trans women are threats to children seemed to have gone there at some point. Curious...

Here we go! Over 13,000 H-1B workers have joined 200+ land-grant, sea-grant, and R1 research institutions so far this fiscal year. I also found that public institutions in large, Republican states are disproportionately affected by Trump's $100,000 H1-B fee. Find your state or your school:

It’s so crazy how these freaks think every disease is cured by a parasite cleanse. They’ve got one hammer and it’s for killing parasites.

gotta remember that no one likes this shit

I joined this Facebook group about technology and parenting because I’m addicted to joining Facebook groups and their kids are constantly finding new and exciting ways to look at porn. On Spotify???? Using Google Maps???????

Had a person I’m on BRIEF zoom calls with every other week tell me she bought bolder glasses inspired by me and idk if I just have glasses blindness but I didn’t realize i was giving “loud glasses person”

the fact that so many people frame autism as “a problem that needs to be solved” is a constant reminder that being “not normal” isn’t acceptable to a large amount of the world. it’s the same reason there’s a trans panic right now too. they think people are defective

it’s crazy how much pedos want everyone to believe this. There’s less than 15 countries on earth where average age of first marriage is below *20*.

I’m going to be so mad if none of these idiots get raptured PLEASE take them to hell already I assume that’s what rapture means here

What they’re doing is coherent. It’s about repealing the idea that women can and should get to choose when and if to have children.

Abortion bans making pregnancy more dangerous, shaming women for using tylenol, making the world more dangerous for babies: this is all pronatalist because pronatalism is about recreating mandatory childbearing, not making childbearing easier.

back on my bullshit (listening to the Angus motion picture soundtrack)

Tip to ruin your own day is to start thinking about how good you felt when Bernie won Nevada

for all the flapping about Uncommitted during the primary it has always been the Blue Dog centrist types who are most disloyal to the party

Listening to s/t by charmer which I still love but the fact that I was obsessively listening to it right before/during COVID lockdown gives me the weirdest feeling of nostalgia

I don’t like living in a time when it seems like 50% of the population is in active psychosis at any given time

i love the experience of finding a completely new-to-you kind of guy

If Trump's gonna bring back stagflation the least he could do is also bring back quaaludes

never let not being able to pronounce “acetaminophen” stop you from creating a completely unfounded panic king

If you, like me, are the parent of a neuro-atypical child dreading this autism press conference, please remember: These are the people hurting our kids. Not us. They are the ones stigmatizing and pathologizing them. They are the ones peddling untested science. And we should be very, very angry.

My professional assessment is that Ezra Klein is a moron @jezebeldotcom.bsky.social

The United States also already has a major physician shortage, which is bad now and projected to worsen to pretty extreme levels as Boomers continue to age. Making H1-B visas dependent on a $100K bribe is going to cause thousands of medical students & residents to stop coming here every single year.

Currently, the strongest study we have that examined this is by Ahlqvist et al (2024), a study of 2.5 MILLION children...its a prospectively controlled study and adjusted for confounders (environment, genetic). It showed no association between acetaminophen in pregnancy & autism

RFK Jr. has had a vendetta against Tylenol ever since he was caught tampering with all those bottles back in the 80’s
