I've always taken to heart Dean Wormer's admonition that "fat, drunk and stupid is no way to go through life, son." That's why I don't drink.

if your 80yr old parent was talking about having conversations with someone who died ~27 years before they were even born, you'd be getting power-of-attorney in place bsky.app/profile/atru...

Cat: “I cannot convey to you just how much I genuinely despise this food.” Me: “Here, have this instead.” Cat: “OMG I LOVE IT.” Me: “It’s exactly the same bowl of food. I just took it away for six seconds then put it back in the same place.” Cat: “I am fire and the wind. Do not attempt to know me.”

At Trump’s State Fair, a riot among the entire crowd almost broke out but thankfully those two guys worked out their differences.

power has blinked four times in five minutes. This has never happened like this in many years! Sucks to be working from home today!

Have a nice, refreshing Reflecting Pool drink this July 4th!

Darnit, I have YET to catch a World Cup match, because I forget to see what time they're playing, then completely forget about it.

1/2 One of my favorite "Constitutional Amendments that has zero chances of passing" ideas is an age limit of 75 on Congress, Federal Courts, and President and Vice President. That's FAR more lenient than the current limits on the top military generals:

Viva La Dirt League may not be well-known, but I'm a big fan!

My sister sent me an image of Worf outside a Waffle House with the sign altered to say WORFLE HOUSE and of COURSE our noble Klingon would patronize the restaurant with a warrior code.

Experts are patiently explaining to me (thank you!) that the Kamchatka quake was just really big Like intellectually I know that it's a log scale and I can do log math But I just don't readily *think* on a log scale Kamchatka (8.8) was 20x bigger and 89x stronger than Venezuela (7.5)

Newsom: “It's time for a national billionaires’ tax” Also Newsom: “Last night, it became certain that a wealth tax would be placed on the November ballot in California. I’m voting no.“ substack.com/home/post/p-...

At 11:00 p.m., more than 1,000 vehicles were stuck in line waiting to leave Crimea, with wait times exceeding 3 hours. By 11:50 p.m., an air raid alert forced the Kerch Bridge to close – and it remains shut. Next time, think twice before vacationing in occupied territory.

My not-so-hot take is that what Mamdani is doing *IS* incrementalism, and the bar is so deeply in hell that a politician just doing *anything* good consistently is a total anomaly for people. And I think for now that is good and fine, because it is restoring people’s faith that better is possible.

I feel like I'm going crazy or something. I stopped at a red light and someone showed up in the lane beside me and just kept going. And on the other side of the road a police car was passing by and did absolutely nothing about it. Why the hell are they even here?

Hora de ir a dormir. 😼😼😼😸😸😸😸😻😻😻😻 Time for bed. 😼😼😼😸😸😸😸😻😻😻😻

if you feel the need to declaw a cat, you simply should not have a cat i propose cutting the first knuckle off people's fingers if they do this. it's an equivalent surgery.

If I could say one sentence to cats and make them understand it, it would probably be "If you are going to puke, please do it on a hard surface."

People who confidently declare that all cats are "mean" really have no idea that they're telling on themselves for having boundary and consent issues.

Well, I've been affected by the Bungie layoffs, and I guess I'm now looking for work. I'm a senior narrative designer on Destiny 2. I'm going to thread a little list of stuff I've done on the game; normally I go out of my way to avoid attention, but today I'd appreciate reposts.

Why?

Trump Officials: "We are gutter racists who believe non-white people are racially inferior to whites. We have said publicly that non-white immigrants dilute the racial purity of our nation and thus we do not want non-white immigrants here. This is *entirely* about race." Sam Alito: "But *is* it?"

saying a certain group of people is "poisoning the blood" of our country is race neutral and not overtly racist according to Alito. this supreme court basically just ruled that Nazi-ism would not count as "overtly racist" and that Mein Kampf was a "race neutral" book.

Dems have to run on this hard. Do not let the RFK types try to spin what his own party just signed off on here. Actual Monsanto, the comic book villain of Adbusters days, was shielded from liability over poisoning Americans. I don't care if it's slopulism: this Supreme Court wants you dead.

The level of shade being thrown in this BBC headline could keep us all cool right now.

85F, 80% humidity in Tampa at 8:30 am. "Feel Like" is 95F.

9 am and it's "sweaty ass crack" levels of humidity in Florida.

Timeline cleanse? cats helping 😂

I am also a “Galileo was a dick” truther if you take the pope’s money to write a book, and then that book features a character straight-up named Simpleton who quotes the pope verbatim just so your self-insert character can look smart by correcting him, you cannot be surprised when the pope is mad

Has there ever been a big archaeological artifact/treasure that was discovered/recovered due to some rich collector dying?

I went to a restaurant. It was packed. No place to sit & a wait that was over 30 minutes. I pulled out my phone, held it to my ear & said loud enough for everyone to hear, “Hey. Get over here, he’s here with someone else.” 5 couples got up & left quickly. Got a table in under a minute.

When I die and get reborn as a cat, you won't know it's me but there will be signs.

If rumours are to be believed I'll be living with a seventh different Prime Minister shortly. If it carries on like this I'm going to stop making the effort to learn their names.

A lot of people don't realise this but in the UK we have to replace our Prime Minister every two or three years or else the rights revert back to Marvel

"I have accepted Keir Starmer's resignation as my chief servant and have invited Andy Burnham to lay out details for how many meals a day he'll give me"

@fakehistoryhunter.net have you tried the County of Fortune demo? You built multiple small freeform villages, and connect them together with trade routes to make the entire county prosperous. The demo only goes up to tier 2 towns, but I am entranced with it! store.steampowered.com/app/3204330/...

I like to share what I find on reddit.com/r/shittyfood... with Bluesky because I’m a person who cares about my community:

So many small businesses use AI for ads, and when I call them out I'm the bad guy because "they're just a small business trying to get by." But here's the thing: MOST ARTISTS ARE SMALL BUSINESS OWNERS!! What about OUR businesses? Why must we suffer so others can get ahead?
