Hey @schumer.senate.gov @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social, it's beginning to look like the "kitchen table issue" is fucking corruption. So maybe lean in on that? Otherwise, you guys kinda look... well... corrupt. Or incompetent.

Melinoë: Zagreus:

lately when i’m feeling hopeless i just think of the Katamari cat wearing scuba gear. if she can survive in an inhospitable environment then so can i

This shit is going to absolutely crater the U.S. economy when it collapses

I would like the child sacrificed to stop, either by we stop doing them, or we acquire an orb with some kind of enchantment, I don't want to be too prescriptive about it, but an orb or other artifact with magical properties that causes them to stop.

re: DHH I love when Wikipedia piles on citations lmao

This made me laugh extra hard today

"so, um, this law you passed...yes, we know we're not complying, and, well, you see, it's *inconvenient* that we keep getting caught trying to mislead you. Could you scrap it? Cheers." -- Cupertino www.france24.com/en/live-news...

every time a driver runs a stop sign or doesn't check a blind spot or punish passes, and nearly maims me with their weaponized incompetence, i know with certainty that they are shaking their fist about all of these damn cyclists on the road who need to get out of their way. car brain is a sickness.

the fun thing about cycling is that if you Follow The Law™ when you are forced to ride with cars, it will probably get you killed by some inattentive driver, but if you ride in a way that is safe for you, you get branded as reckless by news org hit pieces and threatened by aggressive drivers instead

And report that toaster on SaferProducts.gov - a government website where you can report unsafe products, search for unsafe products, and download a lot of data.

You see this outside go back in.

So busy haven't even had a chance to come on here and say something weird about birds.

Just in case you were wondering, Mr. Tailwind CSS himself is all cool with the fashy vibe. (This comes as no surprise to anyone paying any attention for the last several years…he's always palling around with best buddy DHH.)

to the older crowd: "oh yeah so btw he has a new linux distro and of course it uses the transphobic window manager" to the newer crowd: "oh yeah so btw he built a web framework and also has been moving further and further right for years"

It's fine, I got over both of them with a crippling Nubby's Number Factory addiction

If they had a right-wing, “tough-on-crime” coded mayor there would be endless national profiles about him and how he finally brought sanity back to Chicago.

All my best to this FEMA employee, and may they succeed in their mission:

I know we've worked hard to move history ed away from names and dates but I think we might need to swing back to chronology a bit because "who was president on january 8 2021?" and "which came first, the clinical description of autism or tylenol?" shouldn't be this hard, especially for reporters.

just saying: it's possible that "I'm gonna dramatically constrict my state capacity while plotting dramatic imperial expansion, and expanding my set of internal enemies while alienating most of my foreign allies" is the beginning of a world-historical masterstroke. but also possible that it isn't

tylenol is basically worthless, i ate like half a bottle and guess what, still hungry

So, like, she was just lying during her campaign? Calculated that appearing in lockstep with Biden was more important than demonstrably-vital voter blocs? Too demure? What's the takeaway supposed to be, here!

the Snake vs Monkey mode in Delta is AMAZING!! all the different ways he catches the apes is so cute, they obviously had a blast making them all 😆💕

Too late, Batman. Once this Tylenol floods the city's water supply, my wiki won't run out of editors ever again

the UK recognizing Palestine is just the first step - now that they're a state they can be declared a state sponsor of terror and Britain can join the war on Israel's side

This isn't very juicy couture of chuck Schumer

...FYI several ppl commented that The Economist doesn't name authors for many articles. which seems fine if it's a short news summary, but not in the case where it's one writer's interpretation of a study. especially when the interpretation is 180º different from the researchers' own conclusions!

...knowing Jəsse's the author (& that gender-affirming care practitioners are well aware of his biases & tactics) utterly changes the meaning of the last paragraph. without attribution, it makes it sound like the authors are suspiciously dodging the question. in actuality they know he's a bad actor!

...apparently he tweeted about it several days ago. it seems weird that The Economist purposely hid his name from readers. unless of course they knew that readers might already be aware of Jəsse's long history of bias on this issue...

so the Economist article isn't attributed an author. but someone in the replies of this 🧵 tipped me off that it was Jəsse Singal. & it turns out that it was, which in retrospect isn't surprising (as he's one of the ppl who would never answer this question):

Tylenol ain't taking this shit From tylenol.com

how are anti-vaxxers taking the tylenol revelation? doesn’t it seem kind of like telling a 9/11 truther that it wasn’t bush after all, it was like, the mayor of omaha

Trying and failing to think of a more specific and impressive endorsement for a book than "it charmed the Wikipedia editors into playing along"

Tl;dr: Quantitative Easing *did* happen after 2008, but it went to Silicon Valley and tech oligarchs who used it to build gambling apps that drove our parents insane as our high streets and communities died and got replaced by drop-shipping ecomm sites that decimated labour rights and human dignity.

been raptured for 90 mins now. lines are insane. VERY disorganized. scalpers by east entrance

Takedown? More like Mira Shutdown #kpdh #mira #mirakpdh #kpopdemonhunters #moonbyul

Happy Yuqi Day!

Another day, another FAKE study about Trans — totally misrepresented by the Corrupt Media to push their phony panic stories from YEARS ago. Those stories turned out to be 100% WRONG, but they keep lying anyway. DISGRACEFUL!!! Maybe time for the FCC to take a VERY STRONG look at this?

"Are ghost candles a fire hazard?" Is that a real candle that looks like a ghost or a candle in another plane of existence that looks like a ghost and was lit by a ghost or did the ghost light a real candle in our plane of existence and the appearance of the candle is irrelevant. Help us help you.

To be more specific: in the book, several chapters are heavily redacted. This preorder bonus is one of those chapters, with all the redactions removed

We have yet another cool Antimemetics pre-order offer

Fun story this morning. I spoke with Curtis Evans, the retired Marine in the viral photo below who took part in the anti-ICE protest at Broadview. He's a thoughtful guy, well read and with a dry sense of humor. Story @taskandpurpose.com taskandpurpose.com/news/marine-...
