So we’re in the unstaffed lobby of a hotel waiting for our check in time, and the fellow who has been running fire alarm tests went on break and came back and brought us both tea for while we wait. 😭💕 So tremendously sweet.

“Hey kid, do you want a donut from my bag? They’re the bad kind.”

Jesus, they weren’t bloody joking.

Care for a bowl of unlubricated Cheerios?

Bluesky fucks 🖤

Brutal new polling finds Trump's net approval is -16 — down 22 points from inauguration day. Every authoritarian action he's taking must be understood against the backdrop of his declining popularity. He feigns strength, but he's operating from a place of weakness.

Me, a vegetarian, to the noisy pigeons that decided to nest just above my bedroom window: I’m going to eat you.

Even the RNC knows. Plus, it’s not what she said.

Business plan for tech startups: copy the core features of existing successful companies, but honor user privacy.

I really wish we had a well funded, power critical fourth estate interested in investigating the source of this clearly coordinated effort by payment processors. Like, we keep seeing the impact of it, but I really want to know the "who" and the "why" beyond nebulous surveillance/puritanism forces.

Everyone please submit support tickets to Discord begging them not to implement facial scanning, stat. …Meanwhile, who is building a good clone for us to jump to if they go through with this dogshit?

"We might not be able to be on the front lines with people or putting our bodies out there, but it can save someone," Teresa Magaña told me about the whistle printing and distro efforts. She's the one behind the Form A Crowd, Stay Loud zine that's inspired whistle groups in at least 25 states:

always so funny to me when people are like “how am I supposed to explain Gay to my kids?” my kid asks me way harder shit all the time. “why did they build the road this way? why are some people bad?” I don’t know. please ask me about Gay

c o w a r d s . DECADES of supposedly pre-gaming what's happening right now, but it was never real. I'd call it cosplay, if that weren't so insulting to actual cosplayers; actual cosplayers don't claim to REALLY be Sailor Moon.

So sad my favorite local cafe closed. Clearly the rational solution is to go be in Japan near my other favorite coffee spots. 頭がいい😌

The Epstein emails should really end the debate over whether society should have billionaires. "Do you want there to be a class of people so powerful they can fuck your kids and no one will even try to do anything" seems like an easy sell if everyone in politics wasn't trying to get on their payroll

never mind the jobs you had, tell me five classes you took in college - Death and Dying - Muppet Magic - History of American Popular Music - Plant Sex - Cyberpunk *(Ultimately, I was a religious studies major.)

many such cases

square up on the dude, call him a fuckin' asshole on a live mic, back to work. absolute maximum respect

ok the full clip is way better than the little one going around. her whole team try to get her to bail on the event and she's like no, I came to speak. incredible example.

This is such a trivial complaint given <gestures vaguely at everything> but having a flatmate who stomps every time he walks and slams doors all the time is absolutely awful for my nervous system. Why are people like that? Doesn’t it hurt the soles of the feet? I don’t get it.

bro whistles are the NICE option. do you really want to challenge 1,000 nerds with 3D printers to invent something louder and more annoying???

A reminder that ICE hasn’t slowed down in Minneapolis at all. Outside of Minnesota, it might feel like everything has changed since Alex Pretti’s murder. But ICE hasn’t actually lost any power and they’re continuing to terrorize our communities.

The door chimes in this medical center are a chord, and they are the first chord of Claire de Lune, which in turn gets stuck in my head each time it sounds.

Friends, I recommend you ALL get on the phones and or send emails first thing tomorrow telling @democrats.senate.gov NO FUNDING FOR ICE. NONE. They are, per Chris Coons, planning to negotiate body cameras. This willl not change the violence, the invasions of our cities.

lol this would be the most Lucy football situation ever “Ok was he wearing the body cam?” “Yes” “Can we see it?” “lol, no”
