I am not happy that I was raised religiously, generally speaking, but it does mean I catch a LOT of references in Mountain Goats songs, so that's nice.

"We found something you might like." No you fucking didn't. You found other versions of a thing I already bought. Which makes no sense at all as something I might like and then buy.

A 34-year-old as a politician: My god he's like a baby. It's like they just elected an infant to be their mayor. A 34-year-old as an athlete: You have to admire the bravery of him attempting that dunk, knowing full well the grim reaper is right behind him.

Medicare for All would save $450B a year. Every dollar spent on food stamps generates $1.50-$1.80 in economic activity. Each dollar going to low-wage workers adds $1.20 to the economy overall. It’s not about what this country can or can’t afford. It’s about priorities.

The Shining was a movie far ahead of its time, truly an incisive film about the rituals and behaviors of working from home. And murder.

call them whatever you like, the reality is 'smart glasses' are surveillance devices designed by tech companies to violate consent and rewrite social norms. social shaming is still a more effective a deterrent than the law.

I've seen a white cat outside several times over the last two weeks and figured it had to be someone's, but it's cold and wet and it's outside again so I put out a bit of food and a box with a towel in a dry, protected place. Poor baby.

Between branches of government and the rise of AI, there seems to be a curious trend of people wanting no responsibility at all, to happily cede it to bad faith or black box, and just hope for The Best. It's apathy as a lifestyle.

Life is just becoming more and more convinced that capital absolutely HATES workers and wishes they would all drop dead, despite needing them to purchase their ever-worsening product.

If you're cancelling Game Pass today, grab a cheap indie game or two, and then put the rest of the money toward supporting indie games media by subscribing to your favourite podcasts/websites/etc.

I like how Apple Intelligence powers my daily medication notifications now. It's EXACTLY the same as before, but now it's a Priority Notification, with an AI butthole logo above it. FUTURISTIC.

It should be needless to say, but it is perhaps at this moment worth saying, that transgender individuals have the same right as anyone else to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.

I am looking to chat with people who have been disparagingly featured in Zack “Asmongold” Hoyt’s content. I would like to see how this affected you, especially if you can provide ample receipts and clear timelines. Please signal boost this anywhere you’d like, as I’m not on Twitter anymore.

they think they can just erase trans joy and trans freedom. they can't. they can make things a lot harder and more painful. but that joy and that freedom is not theirs to take and it is incumbent on all good people to say so.
