Classic Iron Chef is still an untouchable competition cooking show. Top tier.

I'm in this manga and I'm not thrilled about it tbh

This would break me. In a good way.

damn. I just searched and the piece I wrote for them years ago about domestic violence and Title IX is gone

Literally me.

Thinking about the airplay of this song in my white working class hometown in the 1980s. How it spoke to a lot of people’s imaginations. How it might have, in its original, moved those imaginations.

Saw the convo blew up a bit in mothering churches about the appropriation of wrapping practices. And I guess this is where the appropriation gets extractive. When we as a society are left on read about the benefits of deep pressure stimulation, for nervous system regulation.

Game dev.

Remember: When Tylenol was poisoned *by an outsider* and killed people, the company recalled all their products & redesigned them. When Intel’s Pentium had a bug so obscure it affected 1 in _9 billion_ long division calculations, they recalled their chips. ChatGPT was made deadly *by its team*.

Damn right they did!

as someone who absolutely hates cardio this is unfortunately true lifting heavy things (fun, cool): good for you, which rocks doing cardio (miserable, sucks): also good for you, which is bullshit

I used to have a policy of generally giving the “everyone rejects me and leaves me eventually 🥺” girls a chance and discovered just how many people are capable of manufacturing rejection in their heads, then reacting to it with aggression and hostility before it even actually happens

Packers fandom is pure pain.

Peak American Culture is here

The rare mascot we need AND deserve.

Happy Pop-Tarts Bowl Day to all who celebrate

This has been the best Christmas I've had in a long, long time. It's been the least gaslit Christmas I've had in almost a decade. Being free to focus on what this season means to me without fear of judgment has liberated my heart and lightened my burden. I am grateful.

Performative hate and virtue signaling are the same damn thing.

The length of this video is too perfect. I keep laughing before it finishes and I'm not done when it starts again.

"Early gender gaps condition future educational decisions and labor market and social outcomes. There is extensive evidence reporting the existence of significant gender gaps in mathematical and scientific competencies at age 15..."

I'm gonna listen to this one. If anyone out there wants to hear what AA speaker meetings actually sound like, this is exceptional but actually very realistic. I have laughed harder than I ever believed possible in random AA groups. youtu.be/hoxofrHTIwE?...

I rarely visit Facebook but after some excellent interactions on FB Marketplace and now this interaction, I may have to rethink engaging there. I'm gonna have to see how many guardrails I can put up so I can focus on the real world support groups. This is a tool for making connections.

Growing pains are real. Knowing what they are doesn't make them any less painful. The proper context can shape how I interpret the pain and what I get to do with it. My endings are my beginnings. I am never alone now. I am becoming someone I can love and forgive.

You guys... I got an Agatha All Along Tarot deck! I didn't even know it existed until I opened the box. It's so beautiful 💜 Behold...

Please be the New Years gym person, we can be buddies and struggle learning more machines together 😁🥰

When he’s short and a whore… A tater thot, if you will.

We did it! 🎉🥳🎊

Seasons greetings.

They've always had them, if you have the imagination to see them. Cathedrals everywhere yadda yadda

The framing of the picture with the hills in the background as the focal point and the turtled Cybertruck half off in the foreground is absolute art.

It doesn't matter how big a freak she is in bed, sex puts women in a vulnerable position by its very nature and the way society treats sex sure doesn't help. If you wanna unlock a woman, you gotta create a safe space for us to unlock ourselves. It's a conversation, not a lecture. Remember that.

hot take: If my mind isn't turned on by you, my body won't be turned on either. Men who say that we weren't wet enough during sex, it is because you haven't gained access to our body due to us not feeling safe with you. All it takes is for you to stimulate our minds and the groundwork is laid.

What's the opposite of a culture clash? I think I found it! "We'd better hold hands pretty hard" youtube.com/shorts/xBLED...

I have had such an insanely offline Christmas. I am exhausted and ready to be restored.

Why haven't I been doing this? The kids ate it up. Simple pan-fried chicken. It stayed moist. Simple dredge. Made a dip from ranch and nori seasoning. That gets carrots eaten, too!

"Gandalf is the magical reindeer" The way I looked at my oldest lol. He looked back, realized his mistake and immediately followed up with "YOU SHALL NOT PASS" and imma give it to him. 😂

It's Christmas Eve and we are watching Five Headed Shark attack. This could be the start of a great new tradition. The Christmas Eve Bad Movie.

I hear there is a wave of people coming from twitter? I have a starter pack of non-AI cat accounts that post their own images and use alt text. go.bsky.app/J8yqxnN

Yes

Drove an hour to get a trunk full of Nerf guns for $60. My oldest does not care about new vs used and even if there are some dudes, this was a haul and an adventure. I love getting second-hand stuff when I can. I hate bringing new plastic into the world. This is an easy reuse scenario.

Merry Pissmas Eve!

How the fuck is Liberal Currents publishing the most charitable take on Soviet planning and political economy that I've ever heard?

BREAKING: Judge James Boasberg rules for those deported under the Alien Enemies Act on March 15 — certifying a class, finding the U.S. maintained constructive custody over them at CECOT, finding they were not given due process, and ordering return or that such process be given by Jan. 5, 2026.

People did this with Melania as well and it is absolutely misogynistic to believe that these women lack agency here when they have the power and resources to leave if they so choose. They both know what they're dealing with and they don't care to change because they directly benefit.
