Tim Curry could play a burlap sack and I would pay money to watch. Ditto Ian McShane for that matter

The U.S. *was* feeding poor people then Elon Musk, Donald Trump, and JD Vance illegally killed off USAID.

It's so funny to watch them periodically half-ass try the "Your body belongs to the Reich and it is your duty to keep it fit for the Fuhrer" stuff to their base of the laziest people in America whose idea of attending a political rally is to drive their trucks around a parking lot.

Let me just say: I have run more than a dozen marathons and an ultramarathon and I have worked 13-hour days in a cornfield in the scorching-ass sun, and none of those things broke me like breastfeeding. It’s not a question of will. I am a determined person. Sometimes your body just WONT DO IT.

Anyone in Austin able to temporarily foster this sweet cat?

Demonizing formula is, however, consistent with ongoing Republican attempts to make women’s lives harder and keep them at home

As with everything he says, this is wildly uninformed. Formula keeps getting better and saves lives. And modern research indicates that outcomes are roughly the same. There are reasons to breastfeed but your child isn’t suffering if you don’t

A reminder that you can find MAN FINDS TAPE in select theaters and wherever you rent your movies. Check out the website for more info! www.magnetreleasing.com/manfindstape/

Justice Jackson nails it, but that this has to be spelled out is so depressing.

Kavanaugh pretty much just said this out loud

We know this isn’t true because if the EU was Nazi-like, Musk wouldn’t be fighting it. He’d be saluting it.

So how many family owned farms went under before now, how many of them were acquired by megacorps, and how much of that bailout money goes straight to millionaire or billionaire farmers who don’t need the bailout that all the rest of the laid off workers aren’t getting?

Conservatives seem to love rural socialism but hate urban socialism and I can’t figure out white that’s the case

More than that, his crew threatened to open fire on the murderers. He rescued civilians, returned to base to refuel, flew back, and rescued more civilians. Then he denounced the crimes to his HQ. For all this he received death-threats throughout his life. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hugh_Th....

I have been perfectly happy since the switch to Tidal, the playlist transfer was pretty seamless and my literal only problem is remembering which icon to use on my phone to get to the music since I can't find the green circle anymore

Thread, long but very worth it.

I've seen this passed around quite a bit. A LOT fucking happens these days, so it can be hard to remember events, but Milo was the one who famously outed Loomer's affair with Trump & got her banished from Mar-A-Lago. Meanwhile, Tucker is in with Nick Fuentes, who was Kirk's biggest rival. Civil war.

Pabers in de bocks or pabers on de flore…. dat is de existenshul question. McQ we see heer haff chosen de rode less trabbeled, owtside de bocks. #cats #catsofbluesky

the fucking Calibre e-book manager has gone AI slop calibre-ebook.com/whats-new

If you're looking for a payroll service, and are looking at Wave, DO NOT. Look anywhere else. Hiring a necromancer to resurrect an accountant from 1902 is a better choice. They 1. Failed to pay my state withholding taxes 2. Failed to file returns 3. AFTER TAKING THE MONEY FROM MY ACCOUNT

I'm just a bumpkin at an under-funded teaching college who spent 16 years in a book doing this thing Wurman et al suddenly discovered. Silly me. Since I traced migration & citizenship from the colonial period through 1888, yeah, pretty clear the 14th Amendment is intended to repudiate Dred Scott.

when you're a size 8 but the 10 was on sale

They’re clearly plugging this dude into an IV regularly and, if this were Biden, there would be demands for weekly hour long press conferences from his doctors on his health. But that’s not how authoritarianism works so stop asking questions already.

I am begging you to keep making your thing, even if it is messy, even if you don't think it will sell. There are losers typing keywords into water-guzzling shitmachines and thinking they are a gift to the arts. YOUR THING IS ALREADY BETTER THAN ANYTHING THEY WILL MAKE BECAUSE YOU ARE MAKING IT!

Great thread in which the congressman uses the plot Beverly Hills Cop to expose the lawlessness behind the “stablecoin” scam

Who has made this 🤣

Our gorgeous #WakeUpDeadMan end credit portraits, painted from life by Isabella Watling. We’re still in theaters, see my pinned post for a theater finder!

1000000000000000000x cooler to do this & pay an artist to do what they’re trained to do than to fire up the art theft tech to generate crap.

PSA: If you’re giving a talk, your slide titles should be in black >24pt font if you wish for blind people in the back row (it me) to understand anything. Funky colors are not going to make your talk more interesting, but they WILL make text harder to read.

Similarly, if you’re emailing something, don’t use cursive if you want to me to read it.

Perfect response to Senators and Representatives pretending they know nothing…are they admitting incompetence or admitting they are liars?

There's a subset of GOPer that seems to have entered politics almost entirely for the potential to be adjacent to killing people and well imo that sort of person probably shouldn't be in office

My dad abhors any negative comments about immigrants. Asked him recently why he’s so strong on it: ‘Because we’re always happy to take the rich and clever ones. Which means it’s not about disliking immigrants. It’s about disliking the poor and vulnerable. And that’s a bad human instinct.’

Shop now while you can still make good decisions!

During the Plague Year, I wasn’t able to travel home for the holidays, so I spent some time in lab catching up on extra work. I did not graduate any faster, but I did run into a PI who was all “WTH are you doing here? Go enjoy your staycation.” And honestly, that’s the attitude we need.

Statistically speaking, that experiment you want to repeat because you’ve hit a wall will probably fail, and then you’ll wonder why you wasted your Thanksgiving on something that could have waited until Monday. Sometimes the best thing you can do is recharge and rethink. Go see your mom.

😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

Not sure I understand the news value in bringing Tom Cotton on your TV show to repeat a monstrous lie you watched him say on television earlier this week

Filing a false report with the police is a crime.

I know this won’t do a damn thing but I hope this finally exposes George Strait for the racist asshole he is.

UK is finally all waking up to the fact that Brexit was entirely a Russian/Kremlin plan to divide UK from EU, and destroy the Western Alliance; just as they've also divided USA from the Western Alliance; having destroyed all USA Trade/Military/NATO Allies; NONE of which benefits Americans, nor Brits

One of my neighbors has been putting up these fish facts posters. All kinds of different fish, marine, freshwater, deep, shallow, all kinds. This is a good one. “Stg this real fish” took me out. Good work, neighbor.

This really is a must read for anyone in academia.

Fun that that this country is burning down because a handful of emotionally stunted dudes were furious they can’t get laid without living up to the low bar standard of “don’t be a fucking weirdo”

Trainwreck? In October 2024, The Economist called Biden's economy "the envy of the world."

Republicans use the "I'm not familiar with that" dodge several times a day now, and if a reporters or anchor isn't ready and willing to shut them down as soon as they try it, that means they're either incompetent at their job or a willing accomplice to the lies. Either way, never trust them again.

🇺🇸 trifectas get <one> shot at doing something Obama chose policy (ACA). It didn’t fix the authoritarian problem Biden chose policy (ARP/IRA). It didn’t fix the authoritarian problem The platform must be <immediate> institutional reform next time. Right from the start, as @dhnexon.bsky.social said

Another account spewing AI videos and “following” tens of thousands of people. Block these clowns on site.

Sure. Or grill them harder. Question their competence. “You’re a US Senator. How can you not know about this? This is a big deal. So are you genuinely ignorant or are you lying about being ignorant? Which do you think is worse for your constituents and American democracy?”

If they pretend they haven’t heard about the story of the day, end the interview right there. “I’m sorry, Senator, we wanted to get your perspective on this story, but it seems you’re not fully aware of what’s going on.”
