This was my favourite Animorphs book

[To the tune of Pretty Woman by Roy Orbison] 🎵Baba Yaga 🎵Walking down the street 🎵Baba Yaga 🎵House with chicken feet 🎵Baba Yaga

Everything from preferred pronouns and drug usage to housing and healthcare are included in the "certain unalienable rights, among these are life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness" and it's the government's job to ensure that those rights are not infringed upon by any entity.

When modern Christians say “it’s not the government’s job to help the poor,” they’re not echoing Jesus, Paul, the prophets, or the early church. They’re echoing figures like Ayn Rand, who despised Christianity’s communal ethic of compassion and called altruism a “moral evil.”

I did both because I love engaging with engagement bait

Notice how it’s somehow the government’s job to legislate a few Bible verses on human sexuality over our entire country, but it’s suddenly “not the government’s job” when it comes to the +2,500 Bible verses calling for a generous use of wealth that prioritizes the poor.

tomorrow will mark 100 years since this six-time divorcee, noted pants wearer, and professional taxidermist in Colorado singlehandedly killed 140 rattlesnakes and turned into an overnight celebrity as "Rattlesnake Kate"

Notice how quickly “we want our nation to uphold Christian values” turns into “it’s not the government’s job to feed the hungry or help the poor!” which are actually things Christ taught his followers to value.

Not a drag queen AGAIN??? 🤯🤯🤯🤯

The really interesting thing about Yakuza is that they're really not all that bad. I hear so many stories about how chill they are when there's nothing that they want from you. But in the US, people want your phone, wallet, shoes, jacket, shirt, anything you got that has any intrinsic value at all

It is genuinely insane how every third youtube short is some dogshit ad that I scroll past without a second thought just to get to the same brainrot bullshit that makes my monkey brain happy

huge notice that pops up if you try to edit the cat article

It is Cybersecurity Awareness Month Rule 1: Never NEVER abbreviate Cybersecurity Awareness Month as CSAM

I think I like guns a little less every week

What we are witnessing is an outright abuse of power. This administration is attacking critics and using fear as a weapon to silence anyone who would speak out. Media corporations — from television networks to newspapers — are capitulating to these threats.

Well-said. So many needless deaths due to so many unnecessary guns.

yes yes... all these items are of... equal... importance?

I'm conflicted on the Newsmax v Fox battle. On one hand, fuck Newsmax for willingly pushing propaganda and lies so blatantly. But on the other hand, fuck Fox for willingly pushing propaganda and lies so blatantly.

The standard for VPs is 6 months. Biden has extended it to 1 year. Unfortunately, Trump administration isn't necessarily wrong here.

I love living in the United States of America, where demonstrating financial responsibility by paying off a loan lowers your credit score by 8-10 points

Walz says Harris "would have been a fantastic president... we wouldn't wake up every day to a bunch of shit on TV. We would wake up to an adult w/ compassion & dignity doing the work, not a manchild crying about whatever is wrong with him. May his fat ankles find something today. Petty as hell."

Imagine not being able to come up with "yes, it requires a man and a woman, and sometimes, a different person outside of the relationship will help give a same-sex couple a child." It's really not a difficult concept lmao.

Brent Hinds helped make some of my all time favorite tunes. Mastodon wouldn’t sound as unique as they do in the metal scene without his standout style of playing. Truly tragic RIP Time to watch the making of Crack The Skye videos for the billionth time

Germany gets 60% of its power from renewables and is shutting down its coal plants. No blackouts. No high bills. Every right wing lie about renewables has been proven false.

Considering running a social experiment with my coworkers where I start presenting as female and change my name just to see who gets sent to HR first

The CEO of a a multi-trillion dollar company went to the White House, openly handed the US president a gift made of gold, and his company got a special exemption to tariffs the president has illegally imposed. Also, the Founders took bribery so seriously the Constitution bans it 3 separate times.

weird how the guy born into obscene wealth, bailed out repeatedly, allowed to fail upwards forever until he fell ass-backwards into the presidency, and then was declared by the Supreme Court to be a Very Special Boy Who Can Crime Forever never stops whining about how everything is rigged against him

This is extremely alarming

Not to pile on, but every 'c' in 'Pacific Ocean' is pronounced differently.

Not a drag queen or a trans person??? How is this possible!?

Trying to read a news story, 2025.

Ozzy Osbourne: Welcome to Hell (affectionate) Hulk Hogan: Welcome to Hell (derogatory)

Lol they forgot to keep up the anti-socialist propaganda over the last decade and we all grew up without the inherent fear of a different system

Y’know what *might* work to reduce kids’ screen time? Well-funded, accessible, well-equipped places for *free* sports and outdoor activities. Not just expensive, private, very limited places…

Whatever Ozzy is ultimately remembered for, no matter how much his reality TV era altered perceptions of him, there’ll never be a better hard rock song than “War Pigs”

Sad but not surprising, given the drug and alcohol history. I'll be listening to Paranoid this week.

Ok Chili’s, go off

It should be rebranded as a habitually appeasing conversation simulator because that's exactly what it is

reader i sputtered

Me but with doordash lmaoooo

Large Language Models simulate conversation by predicting what the user wants the next word to be based on a massive set of training data that has been scraped from the internet and a smaller set of human-driven training data. They are conversation simulators, not living things or search engines.

One of the creepiest things about fascism is learning you know people who support it, and that often they are essentially quite normal. Not a revelation to learned people but still a shock to experience.

My head canon is people didn't make fun of Naruto for being cursed, they made fun of him because his parents named him after a Ramen Noodle Fish Cake. "Your name's NARUTO? LMFAO let's avoid this kid"

This account has quickly become a top 10 fav for me lmao
