Press-on nails. Sanitary substitute for small bones in augury. Choking hazard. Chain mail slash unsubtle comment on the spiritual consequences of losing your humanness in the pursuit of technological mastery in an early Thunderdome battle.

Men are like 𝐶𝑎𝑡𝑠, I assumed we were all in earnest agreement in sincerely dunking on what a waste they were, then suddenly they release a new, uglier one it's all anyone can talk about.

“Dudes rock” vs. “remain vigilant against your unconscious allegiance to male homosociality, also conscript all fathers into service as laborers and sex workers, raising children as wards of a state that has purged itself of emotional attachment to wang,” how come my one never trends.

The Board of Immigration Appeals has ordered Emmy-award winning journalist Mario Guevara to be deported to El Salvador after 100 days in ICE detention, a country he fled more than two decades ago after being persecuted for his reporting.

The spectacle of Google's presumptive competitors fretting over whether breaking up the monopoly will cut into the blood money they'd been taking or—worse!—force them to build something. We gotta unplug this whole thing and plug it back in.

I'm so sorry.

Always a frisson of pleasure in watching Copilot try to come up with suggestions for my go-to hed. ("It's a conversation starter" is probably the winner this morning.)

"Phones which passed through Naval Headquarters on Haulbowline Island, in Cork, could be followed from the base into the waters off the south coast where signal connection was lost, and later at other ports and harbours."

It’s hard to believe big companies used to start or grow publications to produce work and put that work before an audience to sustain the work, rather than creating ostensibly new media merely as a subsidary sphincter of whatever bilious organ pipes into some lower fiduciary intestine

I try not to worry my pretty little head about things when I can use my grotesque enormous head for that instead.

Happy lesbian prophet/seer/Doctor of the Church invents the language of God to write dirty letters to Richardis von Stade and opera in which the only male part is for Satan who is not allowed to sing but only to grunt day to all who celebrate.

Always insisting on a difference of kind between enjoying the workplace drama of Star Track and wearing the ears and shit. Is getting mad that TNG's 𝐸𝑛𝑡𝑒𝑟𝑝𝑟𝑖𝑠𝑒 is carpeted more wholesome than getting mad about inconsistencies in TV physics? Less? Who's to say. Never feel guilty about pleasure.
