Better believe I hopped online and ordered one!

the US if Tylenol actually caused autism

And "unfair advantage" is the stupidest thought. Most of the guys who play in the NFL were "unfairly" faster, bigger, and stronger than their competition in high school football. Under the tortured logic of "unfair advantage" they shouldn't have been able to play either.

I once went to a meeting with Bruce Harrell where he told a room full of small biz owners that none of us had donated to him, so he would listen to us but we shouldn't expect him to do anything. Great choice, Pete 🙄

Out of the loop, but is the issue that it's such an amorphous term and concept that it means everything, and therefore nothing?

Charlie Bucket and his grandpa getting raptured, but then they start burping, which brings them gently back down

I'm not worried yet. Mock raptures had me projected as a 7th-round pick.

Bad endorsement from @petebuttigieg.bsky.social here. As someone who spent 14 years living in Seattle, I can say that @wilsonforseattle.bsky.social is by far the better choice for Seattle mayor. www.seattleforkatie.com

That monumental feeling of embarrassment every time Trump engages (or more accurately, rambles at) diplomats and leaders from other countries just makes me so fucking angry at the people who voted for this. As if there's anything to be gained from becoming an international pariah.

Shit begets shit. No surprise.

A software platform we use at work just rolled out a new AI tool, and that's exactly what it produces: "slick but shallow work that looks plausible on the surface" but isn't up to the quality of work we need to produce, so we fix, or re-do, or just forego using it altogether.

Nothing says “land of the free” like armed agents of the state saying “show me your papers if you want your daughter back” bsky.app/profile/nbcb...

Whether they're blaming vaccines and Tylenol, or selling dubious "remedies," what they're really doing is promoting the perception that families (and especially mothers) can prevent and treat Autism. And thus also the perception that people with Autism and their families don't need social support.

Tell me you weren't present at the birth of any of your children nor did you ever attend one of their pediatric doctor's appointments without telling me, etc...but then add being completely batshit senile on top of that.

Disney reverses course on Kimmel. Lessons: -Trump's anti-Constitutional stances, anti-1A in this case, are unpopular -Popular resistance via expression and spending choices can have an impact -Many corporate leaders are weak, amoral people who'll bow to threats unless they face countervailing ones

Four abstentions is ridiculous. Council members aren't elected to not have opinions!

Is it "accidentally" or "by accident"? Anyway, I sawed my assistant in half

Figure out what you want in a long-term romantic partnership and be upfront about it to the people you get involved with, even though it can be awkward. Post-30 you will see a lot of relationships/marriages fall apart precisely because the people involved did not do that.

Go to the dentist for preventative care if it is available because that shit will fuck your wallet and your mouth when you need crowns and root canals and implants 10 years later

We hear a lot about boys getting radicalized online, and not enough about how to stop it. This is good video with 5 specific things parents/adults can do:

Dutch late night TV has its take

The other side of our street was added to a Neighborhood Center via amendment yesterday, and I expect to have a conversation like this at some point over the next 20 years*. (Because realistically, it will take decades for more than a couple of parcels to be redeveloped).

Or else.

Wow, look at this scared little boy chucking a five foot nothing woman to the ground. Someday, when we get to the trials, may we have the courage to mete out the punishments deserved.

someone should go pick it up pick it up pick it up pick it up

"The most radical act in this world is just making something shitty you care about. Just make a dumb thing you personally love. Even if it's shitty. ESPECIALLY if it's shitty."

The pastor who officiated our wedding, Carol Jensen, was still out protesting Trump's lawlessness, sick from cancer and treatment, just a few months before she died. She definitely understood the concept of political legitimacy and leveraging her role and title in protest.

While I claim no insight into the mind of the tagger, I have to imagine that notoriety is a big part of the allure, and the City Attorney has now made these three the most famous taggers in Seattle.

Worth checking out. And if you think to yourself "yeah dumbasses, we all saw this coming", that's exactly what my Latino family is thinking too. It's a stunning victory of propaganda and media manipulation that so many were convinced that Trump was on their side.

I've had conversations with other parents about how having children aligned me even more solidly left, because conservatism, in my opinion, has nothing to offer my children, and two of the main areas I think of in that regard are climate change and LGBTQ rights. 🤡

Built in the 13th century. So that mosque stood for 800 years with every sort of person from every place and every religion in the world passing through Gaza century after century, only for it to be blown up by some shithead loser sitting behind a computer that we probably paid for.

He has three sons

Tim Walz: "I'll tell you what doesn't make people feel safe -- a tank next to Chipotle. It's stupid and it's for the cameras ... where are the 'don't tread on me' people?"

I dare say…Refuse to Lose?

rip to robert redford, i can only hope that my own demise will be greeted with a similar outpouring of public horniness

"They're politicians, what are they supposed to do? Literally fight in the streets?" Unashamed to say this made me cry.

Add your voice and send your letter!

not an exaggeration to say I am WEEPING with laughter at this reply from someone who hadn't seen that Robert Redford died today

Glad I don’t have to hold my breath when Geno makes baffling throws like that anymore.

We appease and empower stupid people. This is so pathetic. You not understanding science is why you are who you are and we are who we are. So stay over there away from the adults who are working to protect you from jamming your own fingers in a light socket

Replacing "transgender is like ferrari" with "transgender is like microwave" from now on after this great bit

Online trads going to church for the first time and finding out it's not an IRL version of their personal Based internet club always cracks me up

I’m truly curious who advised Bruce that going all-out misogynist is a good debate strategy. This isn’t a small town Oklahoma school board race.

It’s finally now my official birthday! Watching the Seahawks and then off to the movies for Spinal Tap 2. Should be a great cap to a fun long birthday weekend. 43 isn’t any kind of milestone but I’m still making it fun.

This may explain why there’s an aggressive response to people who merely post Kirk’s own words. It threatens the existence of the alternate Kirk - the motivational speaker that had been marketed to young kids and white Christian groups through selective quotation & clips.

We’ve been living through 72 nonstop hours of this exact tweet

Y’all, I have been saying since last year that Bryan Woo has the highest upside of any Mariners starting pitcher, and he is proving me right again and again.

To describe the current state of the world as a daily show of deepening horrors is a massive understatement. However, I read something today that I think more people should see and read. I hope she doesn't mind my me sharing it here. I'd rather be an X-Men by @gailsimone.bsky.social

Anything my kids access online has to be through my logins so I am able to monitor what they see and who they talk to. It can be annoying to have random video game playthroughs on my YouTube feed, but in this day and age it’s necessary.
