Trivago always makes me think of Truvada, and I can't believe it's accidental.

Seeing Grimes stan Nick Land on X, and feeling the need to tap the sign:

White supremacists + neo-Nazis have murdered literally hundreds of people in targeted attacks since the Oklahoma City bombing in 1995. The fact that far-Right politicians claim the threat to the public comes from anti-fascists who oppose them is because they fundamentally side with the murderers.

Have you, like me, spent the last 26 years worrying if the Canadian Potato Museum STILL has the display of various potato diseases with potatoes in little coffins? Stop worrying. I checked today. Still there.

Brand Manager getting ready for Pride Month

relieved to hear she's dropped out of the America 250 concert as well

Do you think that politicians should spend their time and energy killing people?

SAN ANTONIO! FOUND THIS DOG NEAR HEMISPHERE ON CAESAR CHAVEZ. PLEASE CONTACT ME IF HE BELONGS TO YOU.

I've been warning about this moment for two decades over at Techdirt The U.S. is too corrupt to regulate data brokers (and their exploitation and sale of location data) and the check has come due

I swear that "soft death metal" is one of my favorite genres: please recommend releases you consider to be soft death metal.

Academic writing should be financially compensated. Not all of us are on the tenure track and thus rewarded with promotion for our research and publications. So, as Harlan Ellison famously said: Pay the writer!

I just cutted and pasted 65 job ads today: because each section of the class needs its own ad of course.

Is that Sleep Token?

During this difficult time please give pam bondi the same level of respect she gave Epstein survivors.

Sure, I'll listen to the new A Perfect Circle song: a band that has not been good since 2003.

New Sallow Moth album from @gonemage.bsky.social and Allen Gingerich on Willowtip is fucking awesome, pre-order it here: sallowmoth.bandcamp.com/album/hydrop...

The most hilarious thing about the 9-5 world of "work" is that they're like "you're going to hand over your life to us, and we're going to give you ***slightly less*** than you need to live." "And the rest I need to pay for stuff?" "Oh, you can borrow it. From our friends here. With interest."

Idk who needs to hear this but ACAB includes penis inspectors

Thread 🧵:

It does puzzle me that God is alleged to be male: all-powerful but bounded by 1/2 of a gender binary? Doesn't add up.

1/ At 17 weeks pregnant, Emily Waldorf was suddenly faced with a life-threatening situation: Her baby’s foot was dipping out of her cervix. Doctors told her the longer her cervix stayed open, the higher her risk of infection. They knew how to treat her. There was one issue … 🧵

Texan Republicans getting ready to vote for Paxton:

Me finally watching Joker 2: Folie à Deux:

Dems I am begging you: do not fumble this.

Watching the rise in hiring AI specialists - and people rushing to rebrand themselves as AI experts - is hilariously depressing.

I caved and updated my operating system but ever since then this has been popping up everywhere: anyone know what it is and how I can get rid of it? Thanks.

everyone telling me james joyce was a real loverboy and like, we know he was a freak (complimentary) but did anyone ever tell him he could have taken nora's name instead of the other way around??? we could have had finnegans wake by james barnacle if he was really about the loverboy life

There is no indignity you can imagine that godbothering fascists will not stoop to in their efforts to torture and dehumanize innocent people.

Good morning.

hey so lots going on i know but this right here is a whole fucking slow motion ongoing tragedy

The slush fund for J6ers is an important step towards having militia members stationed at polling sites during the midterms. It's a promise to Trump's brownshirts that they will not only not be punished for their violence, but they will be paid for it as well.

New bigotry, same as the old bigotry.

My fellow cis folks, The FCC is asking Americans to submit comments about whether the TV Oversight Management Board (TVOMB) should create new TV ratings to alert viewers to trans/gender content. Time to be an ally and tell the FCC absolutely the fuck not. It takes five minutes to do.

Remember the “marketplace of ideas”? Yeah, that was a lie.

The war on renewable energy is short-term nihilism.

I thought this was pretty cool, Camila Morrone was great, but it would have worked better as a 2h film: at 9h it was kind of a slog, and that house got claustrophobic too soon. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Somethi...

The message shouldn't be "taxes are bad," it should be that you should get something for them, it's your money, it shouldn't be going to some rich dipshit's Dr. Claw-ass ballroom or into the pockets of J6 child molesters

Every Republican primary is between 99% Hitler and 110% Hitler and voters are breaking the lever they’re going so hard for 110% Hitler

While you talk about Nuremberg 2.0, Dem senators are voting for Trump.

Funny how two+ years in and we're not hearing about all the massive success stories AI must be responsible for by now

LinkedIn trying to make me play an online game called Zip with work colleagues is the most pathetic thing.

We need to give a paycheck to every person on Earth, including those sitting at home doing absolutely nothing. Doing nothing is morally superior to making it your life's mission to do harm to others, as JD Vance has.

The thing is... even if Paramount does eventually replace Bari Weiss with someone who actually knows how to run TV news, it's too late. Ellison has shown his hand, has made it clear that he has a very specific ideological agenda he's injecting into these brands.

OK I'll bite. What's a "Granta"? Wrong AInswers only.
