My dog talked me into a longer walk in the woods than I'd intended. He has a very cute way of, when he knows I plan to turn back toward home, walking very slowly toward the other fork in the trail and looking back over his shoulder at me.

Billionaires must be targeted with tax policy and antitrust policy not because it helps everyone else (though it does) but because their political power must be limited so they can't wreck the world the way they're currently doing

Okay, well let's tax you however many times more we need so that it doesn't take ten numbers to describe your wealth and see where we get.

GRACE JONES — happy 78th birthday ❤️

A very sweet, older customer ordered a 2nd copy of a book about how 5G is destroying our brains by a lifelong MAHA grifter. She said "I wonder why more people aren't reading this," and then, after a pause, "probably don't want to know the truth." They're not reading it because it's horseshit, Dianne

[derogatorily] bluesky is a strong advertisement for the power of AI coding

The FCC is floating the idea of making shows put up a warning if they include or discuss trans people and trans lives. A short paragraph objecting to this would be helpful! The deadline for comments is May 22: www.fcc.gov/ecfs/filings...

This brought me joy.

“99.2% of GPS patients who received gender-affirming medical care continue to identify as transgender into adulthood. Of the remaining 0.8%, most did not regret the medical treatment they received.” This is why transphobes are terrified of youth care, and why youth care should be legal everywhere.

If I know a book was written by AI, I will not sell it. If I discover that a book I am selling has been written by AI, I will stop selling this. These will always be true statements for as long as I am running my business.

BREAKING: if you want money to cover your student loans, simply try to overthrow the government

the president of the united states sued his own government for ten billion dollars and “settled” it by directing that government to use taxpayer money for a nearly two billion dollar slush fund to distribute to his political allies at will typing it out barely feels real

Who among us wouldn't take advantage of the convenience and ambiance of downloading our many, many softwares at Best Buy were it not for the prohibitive taxes?

I've been trying to think who Altman reminds me of and he's the spitting image of Burke from Aliens

I will NOT leave my isolated Massachusetts fishing village I will NOT stop making sacrifices to the Deep Ones I will NOT refuse to interbreed with them I will NOT live on the surface world I AM A FISH MAN. Ph'nglui mglw'nafh Cthulhu R'lyeh wgah'nagl fhtagn

Way less saturated fat that way

After slowly losing my mind all day looking at book catalogs, I just came across a remaindered "Unofficial Home Alone Cookbook" published in 2023. If anyone needs me, I have become the Joker and I will be doing hilarious crimes

I was sober when this picture was taken

Joe: I am a 73 year-old retired mechanic in Forsberg, Nebraska. My 3 biggest problems are Iran's uranium enrichment capability, the casting of Helen in Christopher Nolan's "Odyssey," and the ability of Tennesseeans to check out "Roots" from a library 1000 media outlets: can we please talk at length

point absolutely taken, agree, "accuracy" is just a smokescreen for racist cruelty and hysteria, but, um, I do. i would go absolutely fucking apeshit for something like this.

Broke: Characters throwing up because they're pregnant Woke: Characters throwing up because they're becoming Brundlefly

So many people are like "I am in love with the man built out of dead bodies in Guillermo del Toro's Mary Shelley's Do Not Build a Man Out of Dead Bodies."

He’s offended because The Odyssey is about something near and dear to him: being an absent father while chasing vanity for 20 years

Today marks Nakba Day, an annual day of remembrance to commemorate the expulsion of more than 700,000 Palestinians between 1947 and 1949 during the creation of the State of Israel and the year that followed.   Inea is a New Yorker and a Nakba survivor. She shared her story with us.

Trans people are facing a decades-long, escalating, international effort to drive them out of society supported by some of the richest, most powerful people AND governments in the world and you are right that a few of them being snippy with you on social media is, essentially, the same thing.

Speaking of criminal enterprises, the millions of dollars Thomas has taken in bribes

We are living in an extraordinary age of censorship and you can count the hobby-less freaks behind it on one hand.

gwen does fantastic work as usual on some of the 401,000 trans people who’ve had to flee hostile territory in their own country in the past 18 months.

sorry, i work at a university in a red state, and it’s illegal for the women & gender studies faculty to spend research money to attend their conferences. what in the fuck are they talking about

Rewatching 30 Rock and I think this is still possibly one of the best constructed jokes in anything, ever.

On this day in 1985, the city of Philadelphia went to war against its own citizens. I wrote about it for @teenvogue.com back in 2020: www.teenvogue.com/story/histor...

i have yet to see a single cis person say something about the fact that the government just designated trans people a terrorist group and threatened to kill all of us.

Yesssss, we fucking back up fuck a box office let's roll

My stress dreams are almost always airport focused. Either I'm missing the flight, caught in security, or not getting to the airport in time for one reason or another. I haven't flow regularly in years. When I did, how did my stress dreams manifest? Well, obviously, zombie apocalypse.

Can confirm

Women don't want men with big testicles. They want men with gigantic, inflatable scrotums. Scrotums that strike fear in the hearts of their enemies. Scrotums that defy the world order. Women want mythologically accurate Tanukis.

Villain, I have done thy mother.

Sean Duffy’s reality series is getting slammed for all of the obvious reasons, but don’t look past the fact that his show is being sponsored by companies his department oversees and regulates. In other words, it’s not just a political mess, it’s also an ethical one. www.ms.now/rachel-maddo...

There *has* to be a reckoning for this. There simply has to be.

ok then

I won't name it, but there's a book coming out that has me thinking about this again and, honestly, Frankenstein might be the work of fiction most widely disrespected by supposed homages, adaptations, and "inspired by"s I can think of.

There's no trophy, deer, or trophy deer good enough to have me doing this in public
