Incredible thread. I had no idea where tipping came from. Whew.

How did I only just discover that Don Jr is marrying the daughter of a prominent Epstein enabler? Her late dad, a banker, wrote Epstein a reference letter calling him "a gentleman of the highest integrity" to help get him tax breaks &… his island. Can’t make this stuff up.

My old person hill to die on is you need to say “hello” and “thank you” to people working in any service industry. Treat people like people, you have to

i just told a friend on my couch, "shots fired at the White House" and they responded, in a tired voice, "ok"

The Giants did the Key & Peele skit to celebrate a win (via NBCS Giants)

It’s my birthday and all I want* is for people to have bodily autonomy. Celebrate my existence by donating to (or joining!) the Los Angeles Guild For Reproductive Health! We support 5 orgs providing on the ground abortion aid including @brigidalliance.bsky.social & @wrrapreprojustice.bsky.social

You just know someone has let AI write their wedding vows, love letters, parents’ obituaries, kids’ birthday cards… Such a powerful loss to self and community when people relinquish the truth of their own words, their own voices, and become epiphenomenal vessels for computers to talk to each other.

Ah, here we go.

The ants have discovered the house.

Giants are doing offense competently!

Arraez is a lot of fun. I like him.

style guide - “transness,” not “transgenderism” - “trans woman” and “trans man,” not “transwoman” - “nonbinary person” as the analogous usage for above - just say “cis,” it solves a lot of terrible convoluted sentences. eg ”biological woman/man” is incoherent — trans people are also “biological”

okay hi Americans I don’t know who else needs to hear this but ‘nonce’ is not a catch all insult for someone you dislike. it does not mean dumbass. it does not mean asshole. it means paedophile. that’s why we call him Prince Nonce. thanks for coming to my ted talk

During the Civil Rights era, white towns drained their pools and closed their municipal zoos rather than integrate. We cannot get better until we confront the evils of the past, because they are still here.

My fellow cis folks, The FCC is asking Americans to submit comments about whether the TV Oversight Management Board (TVOMB) should create new TV ratings to alert viewers to trans/gender content. Time to be an ally and tell the FCC absolutely the fuck not. It takes five minutes to do.

Morning! It's the weekend! Help a silly girl meet her goal, and get it over the line! Just a small amount more... Anything helps Thanks! ko-fi.com/dreamingnoct...

there's a burger chain in toronto that sells "california style" burgers, which means that the buns are inverted. not a thing in california. im losing my mind at how stupid this fuckin burger looks. i can't believe they sell this as a regional specialty.

Have you had any difficulty accessing miscarriage care after the Dobbs decision? I'd love to talk with you for a story I'm writing. (Please share!)

I don’t want to work anymore today.

As a science fiction writer I really fucking resent tech bros for ruining the phrase "artificial intelligence." 80 years of it being all about cool androids and interesting computers destroyed by five years of "Spicy autocorrect making everything shittier for money." NEVER FORGIVE.

This is an underappreciated way in which this article is terrible. People who get shot by the cops in Baltimore are “suspects.” People who assault cops while breaking into the capitol building to murder legislators and the vice president - AND ARE CONVICTED - are “defendants?” Okay.

according to a Dodgers press release, labor leader Dolores Huerta is throwing out the first pitch against the Rockies on May 26. the game is also Mexican Heritage Night.

I hate not being able to trust cute animal videos anymore because of AI. Animals do all kinds of cute and amusing things in real life! Why are you making fake shit when the real thing is already entertaining and charming af?!

They showed this version in schools for maybe 15 years and literally no one in my class had any reaction to a black woman being in it, someone yesterday said Eartha Kitt was Helen of Troy in 1950 and I looked it up and it was Orson Welles who cast her because she was a cabaret dancer and was hot!

Yesterday, Minneapolis joined cities across Minnesota and the country in passing a moratorium on data centers. This is critical so we can invest time and research to understand the full impact data centers will have on our electrical bills and water system.

Last night my wife said she grew up thinking the song "Mellow Yellow" was about the soft drink. I told her I'd always heard that it was about getting high by smoking banana peels. We checked Wikipedia, and...

DC friends, they've started up checkpoints again. There's a checkpoint at Rhode Island Ave NE and South Dakota Ave NE. And fuck ICE.
