I was a trans kid. I was forced to out myself when I was an adult and that still fucks me up to this day. I also teach and you'll just has have to throw my ass in jail because I will never out anyone against their will. Kiss my ass.

This isn't quite true. It depended on where you lived. If you were rural you cooked and ate at home. If you were urban and you didn't have access to a kitchen, you ate out. It's the same for every era. In the medieval times, more folks were rural. After the plagues-- and the rise of--

By the way can you take notes? *gets message a half hour after meeting starts*

when I was going through some rocky career patch or another, mfers on ye olde twitter were quick with "learn to code"; how's that workin' out for ya, champ

I’m on Amtrak and the conductor just made the best quiet car announcement I’ve heard yet: “This is the quiet car. If you’re going to feel some kind of way when people shush you, then you should not sit in the quiet car.”

I learned about this through Chinese Vertical Dramas hilariously enough.

Clearly the answer is to pee in water bottles and then leave them in Labour's offices.

Don’t really care if you use DoorDash or not but you should have Catholic Guilt about it

Mr. Speaker—Bullying trans kids: -Won’t end this war -Won’t address the economy -Won’t make us more free It will only hurt our kids. Which is why we are a HELL NO on this bill!

...Do we not have a microwave? Are microwaves problematic? You can get a lot of single-serve healthy meals at like, Trader Joe's that easily microwave for much less than burrito taxi meals. I often don't have energy to ~cook~ but I have a rice cooker and the capacity to steam veggies.

I've recently spent some time on Mike's blog and found this piece from 2006. I remember he emailed me saying he wished he could do more stuff like this but people had come to expect his super-tight pencils. Breaks my heart because this is one of my favorite things he ever drew. His post in Alt Text.

And that PTSD moment when you smell fire and --yep, Simi Valley is on fire.

BRB gonna invent "Amish 2" where its rejecting any technology invented after 2020

Any chance I have to post Raffi’s Star Trek takes is a chance I am going to take

So it's just this www.youtube.com/watch?v=5RgR...

I truly and fully do NOT have time to watch this NEARLY-FOUR-HOUR vid the algorithm just threw me wherein a private investigator pulls apart the evidence that supposedly exonerates Neil Gaiman, but god DAMN, now THAT'S how you make a thumbnail! www.youtube.com/watch?v=3FQ8...

Well I have just had the dumbest two fucking days trying to get my account to open. How are all of you.

How badly is Florida currently fucking things up to be doing something like this.

I can’t believe I’m saying this out loud but public sector unions should absolutely be able to negotiate on compensation, are some of you out of your minds

I HAVE FIXED THE PROBLEM

No pleasure better than Being Right, especially over medical billing

This is about closing a loophole now that most software is deliveries digitally. You’d think people would like the “This is Designed to Fuck Larry Ellison Specifically Sales Tax” rather than fixating on the messanger

“Instead of student loan forgiveness we’re doing a coup forgiveness program”

So you CAN get reparations you just have to be a reactionary white person who tries to overthrow the government because black votes shouldn’t count

Now the German is demanding to know my exact ethnic heritage and the percentage points and can't understand how deeply fucked up it is for them to be asking me that question.

hey you guys remember how you were all "It's dumb to have an energy drink at 6 o'clock at night you need to have a good night's sleep" Well. You were right.

Not a German arguing with me about our shitty "Oktoberfests" and our "shitty right-wing politicians influencing theirs"

Now I DESPERATELY want to see Statham doing something like this: www.youtube.com/watch?v=v7K4...

Pancakes, eggs, coffee and the rest for a tip.

At least *someone* in DC has a spine.

You need to befriend white people of Irish ancestry. They're going to suggest you go to the fucking Holiday Inn.

Grogu chewed into a bag of M+Ms and the vet had to pump his stomach again

Is it the official policy of the US Dept. of Homeland Security that no Jews serve there? If not, who is the “we” defined by belief in Jesus Christ as savior? Or does the “our” refer to the Americans whose security the Department has a duty to protect, none of whom are apparently Jews?

The Seattle Times published a full obituary for Juniper Blessing. It's a moving tribute to a life well-lived. May she rest in peace, and may UW honour and carry on her legacy. Scholarships named for her might be a good start.

Imagine trying to argue that she doesn't have a face that would launch a thousand ships.

I regret to inform you all that the energy drink just seemed to speed up my heartrate but has done shit for my energy levels. (just the one. I didn't do two)

TOOT TOOT IT’S THE TOBLERTRAM

People are not going to let this go-- I fucked up and used "male socialization" when discussing trans women on a thread, and that was wrong. I apologize. What I meant to say was privilege. I articulated myself badly and accidentally did something heinous and that sucks. I deleted those posts
