Armageddon is terrible, but our only other option was diversity trainings at work.

This is honestly the only thing that needs to be said. If we are naturally supposed to be submissive why the fuck do men have to keep telling us to be submissive.

I was just talking to a friend today about Dolly Parton's Imagination Library - new books every month, totally for free, for kids ages 1-5. My son was part of the program - this is a copy of the letter that came with his last book, right after his 5th birthday.

This quote from Apollo 14 astronaut Edgar Mitchell has been in my head the last few days

Once again, "Andor" delivers the goods. Bondi, finding out she's being tossed aside.

Willful ignorance of the past to preserve a preferred vision of the world is a gross disservice to all. Be honest with where this is manifest and why, learn from it, and do better. We start by acknowledging the past and its destructive frameworks, and intentionally designing a different future.

All right, live whatevering of Trump v. Barbara, the birthright citizenship case. Arguing for the bad guys is US Solitictor General John (voice is an immutable characteristic so let's show some respect) Sauer. For the plaintiffs it's ACLU legal director Cecillia Wang.

Some thoughts about writing stuff, in no particular order (this might be a long-ish thread): 1. When Old Man's War came out (2005), lots of people read it and assumed I was conservative, because of its subject matter, and sub-genre, me being a white dude from Ohio, and other various factors.

I have never wavered in my position that there can be no compromise with RFK Jr. He is a dangerous fraud who has caused incalculable damage to public health. It’s extremely disappointing that the President of the American Medical Association was doing a photo op with RFK Jr. this morning.

Nobody needs this much money.

As a baseball fan of many years, I’ve never seen anything like this before. I love it. Normalize giving your fellow humans hugs.

In all seriousness though, elder millennial jokes aside, I think it’s important to resist the media framing of any mainstream resistance to the status quo as just the shrill nonsense of middle-aged women with nothing better to do. This isn’t the first time they’ve run out this playbook.

I know I've seen it before, but the Golden Sisters of Battle still spark joy.

Every single word.

i said last year that these people were segregationists and that “merit” just meant “white and male” to these people

Representational art was rare in the Neolithic; abstract forms were more commonly used, and likely served as the basis for memory aids in ceremonial orality. I highly recommend "The Memory Code" et al by the remarkable Dr. Lynne Kelly (@lynne-kelly-42.bsky.social) www.lynnekelly.com.au

I'm slowly losing the ability to walk, as my discs continue crumbling (five years on and not looking good). It often hurts, but I'm in good spirits. And: really super grateful for VR, which is an accessibility tech for me now when it was a hobby and augmentation before. Headset > wheelchair.

The Jetsons lied to us

#ResistanceRoots #WomensHistoryMonth Matilda Joslyn Gage was born on this day in 1826 in Cicero, N.Y. She was an abolitionist, Native American rights activist and leading 19th-century suffragist, but she was largely written out of history by her colleagues due to her increasingly radical views. /1

Read the whole thread; woman was awesome.

This may be the most powerful 85 seconds I've ever seen on television.

It isn’t real, this is an ai image based off the Bloodborne disk.

This whole concept in LOTR is one of my favourite parts of the whole book. “Evil fucks up because evil people fundamentally cannot imagine that others are not motivated by the same things as them” is another theme that feels relevant right now

I adore versatility and diversity in art, and practice, and people. Takes me out of my sameness and expands my view; saves me from my narrow experience and shares new and forever changing worlds. Things that only agree, validate or amplify me just lead to more… me. How small and sad that would be.

CNBC labeling with as much green as possible - bitcoin up? Green. Oil up? Green (in as many categories and types of oil as possible). Oil going up is NOT normally labeled in a positive color, because the increased price of oil is a detriment downstream. But then, look who they're "interviewing".

✋ Former USG war crimes lawyer here. Apropos of SecDef's remarks this morning: Denial of quarter—even the declaration of no quarter—is a war crime. And recognized as such by the US Government. From DoD's Manual for Military Commissions.

Yes, the US destroyed the Shajarah Tayyebeh elementary school. Looking at the satellite imagery of the layout, it shares similar features and distances with adjacent IRGC buildings and could easily have been mistaken as belonging to the same compound. It is doubtful they knew it was a school… 1/

Pretty sure the Kool-Aid man stayed in this hotel room once

So according to the WSJ a US Senator conspired with another country to manipulate the US into starting a war, am I getting this right

Excuse the bad language, but this is where we are at right now:

this is what it feels like to post on bluesky

"Artists peak at 30", "30 under 30", "by 30 you should" ridiculous. Arts industries capital craves young people to exploit and burn out. It doesn't want older artists thriving and guiding the young. It also doesn't want artists to exist. Stop letting cannibals tell you you only matter on a plate.

Saw a few episodes of Apple's Monarch series during a bout of insomnia. Everybody's stupid and they all deserve to die. Not a single realistic survival instinct (or ability) in the bunch, and the world would have killed them several times over without the help of any monsters or infighting.
