this guy started the video with his qualifications as if there was any chance i wouldn’t trust this man about clocks

This sure is a sequence of sound-images or “signs” as Barthes would call them

The number of curable ballots from Seattle has edged downward a little since midday yesterday. There's now just over 1,700 curable ballots, which still skew younger.

no amount of state propaganda will ever convince me this man is my enemy

i don't think we'll ever see a faithful adaptation of tehanu as long as there is even one single man in the production chain with the ability to stop it from happening

a light sipping oil, for a night out on the town

Wow. We really need to get rid of design review. This is unacceptable.

lol

If yr outraged at Trump taking money allocated by law to specific federal programs & using it for only stuff he likes, wait'll you hear about the hundreds of millions in affordable housing money Mayor Harrell & the city council gave to the SPD

I keep looking at these bikes and thinking no no I already _have_ a cargo bike

Turning the Civil War from "a tragedy, brother against brother" into "The Good Guys Destroyed The Bad Guys" is necessary. It is absolutely essential. The fourth grade class I attended in the 1990s sang Dixie every morning and we need to completely stomp that out.

With the death of Dick Cheney, voters yearn for another politician willing to shoot people in the face

I will NOT lib out. (expression of stony resolve softening, warm smile spreading across face) Ah what the hell. Pass me a lib, brother

D&D is becoming left-coded simply by virtue of being a communal activity.

I think it is the job of the press to tell people what's in major legislation and how it will affect their lives.

On the other site, an 18-year-old Zohran canvasser described the legendary Wallace Shawn as "the actor who plays Dr. Sturgis on Young Sheldon" which is honestly adorable

Mamdani is not a radical. He has run a tight, smart, fairly standard local campaign. He'll probably get 20 or 30 percent of his platform if he's lucky. The one radical thing he's done is told the Times to go to hell. He has campaigned every step of the way like he doesn't need them, and he's right.

The thing people dont understand about menswear guy is that he likes it when you shop at value village and appreciate what you find there you don’t have to get bespoke new stuff Most dry cleaners will alter for not that much money

When I got out of college, I rented a room in my buddy’s double-wide. He was a firefighter. I was a firefighter. I made $26,000 that year and had 0 kids. He had 3 kids, 2 jobs, rented out a room - and still needed food stamps to make ends meet and put good food on the table for the kids.

no trials.

I think very often people do not realize the sheer *scale* of government, particularly the US government.

Can the Manhattan Project avoid building the nuclear bomb?

For reasons too complex to explain here, I wrote an Apple II program designed for Early Modern Age Catholics to determine if they're allowed to have sex with their wife, or if it'd be a sin. Here's the video of it running.

When people freak out about how apartments might impact like. A single tree? This is what I always think of. Most trees in the city get cut because of Rich Person Caprice

A Bard College student was kidnapped by ICE and Bard’s administration is advocating for his release and has created a website to assist the rest of the community in joining them. That’s what academic leaders should be doing for their students right now. www.instagram.com/p/DQKSTDJkeF...

she was just the best, every time I read something she wrote I'm like 'oh wow somehow I think *even more* highly of her'

In a group chat with all the fucked-up extinct Cambian sea creatures. They keep saying having vertebrae is nerd behavior and won't stop calling me "Backbone Boy" with a dozen cry-laughing emojis

Nazi tat affair useful because anyone doing bizarre prevarications atm re how its totally normal to have a Nazi tattoo, good actually, not a big deal that'd matter in an election, if anything its cringe you care, etc etc, has revealed you never need to take their politics opinions seriously again.

When you are pure of heart no amount of earnestness is Cringe. When you are a malevolent little freak no amount of sarcasm is enough to make you cool

take the good news wherever you can get it

If we are living though another Gilded Age I demand trains dammit

Before catastrophic floods swept through the Alaska Native village of Kipnuk on Sunday, the EPA canceled a $20 million grant intended to protect the community from extreme flooding. www.nytimes.com/2025/10/14/c...

oh you asked chatgpt? well I got high on paint fumes and asked the fae in the woods and they think you're lame as hell for that.

i don't want to wake up and immediately read what you lot have to say! many of you have untreated personality disorders and strange fetishes!

All of these protests have been on one side of the spectrum, too. It’s darkly funny to imagine how Dems would react if the largest protests in history were regularly being held AGAINST them - they’d have surrendered to King Trump years ago - but when it’s in their favor they just ignore it

"Ich bin ein Berliner" - uncool. So last century. "Ich bin ein Acht-Und-Vierziger" - slick, modern, infinitely cooler.

More on the CDC tonight: @jeremyfaust.bsky.social , who is impeccably sourced there (physician, Harvard faculty) has details on the divisions hit by the apparently illegal RIFS. insidemedicine.substack.com/p/breaking-n...

[disclaimer: i'm just talkin, these are normative statements, idk and am not commenting on what infrastructure exists irl] there has to be a way to absorb some of these people into state health departments..or set up an interstate body to keep tryna do this work..we just cant lose all this capacity

love taking my wife on dates to neighborhoods she's not been to and pointing out "ah yes... I've peed in that alley... oh several times here... once i peed here... oh this place was a #2 situation..."

The theocrats on the Supreme Court think it's good to rig democracy for Republicans. Every Democratic legislator has a simple duty to the Republic: End independent redistricting. Gerrymander out every single Republican seat. Beat them at their evil game.
