Were there any astronauts canonically in fallout? That would be a cool quest line.

I hope my coworkers don't think I walk to the far bathroom because I am afraid of them hearing me pee. The real reason is to clear the move bar on my watch.

Nasa: we're going to orbit the moon in a very cool way! Me: hell yeah science!! Them: we're going to build a moon base! Me: yeah I'm gonna need universal healthcare, assholes

A few have suggested that some aspects of this mission--joy, international teamwork, diversity--are being played up to stick it to the hateful attitude of the administration. But I don't think it's that. I think it's just that those things are essential to and inseparable from a mission like this.

Also, we can get to the moon faster than a train can travel across the US. It's like our infrastructure is perpetually stuck in 1965.

My son "why are they all wearing their shoes inside?"

Had half a margarita and came home and put on ABBA gold. Happy birthday me.

The war is very bad but so much stuff before the war was also very bad. So many people sick or dying due to the closure of USAID. The ICE detainments. The mass government layoffs. The destruction of the East Wing. The decimation of science research and funding. Fluctuating tariffs. Travel bans.

Same vibe (4 years ago at the stone zoo)

My husbands 95 year old grandma definitely sits down on a holiday and calls all her kids and grandkids (there are a ton). She also sent me a birthday card. This is a GG appreciation post.

I went to a kids movie yesterday and people are so bad with popcorn they clean it out with a leaf blower between showings at our theater. Does look kind of fun.

"What you feel in your heart towards the series is almost entirely irrelevant. What matters is what you do, because J. K. Rowling is out there doing a lot of things...Nothing is adequate to the situation except the truth. There is no way to watch the new Harry Potter show subversively"

Kids if your easter basket has 12 tons of kit kats in it tomorrow, no it doesn't

If dipshits can say they can abstain from vaccines for religious reasons I am going to be having my children abstain from this. I can just say they are CATHOLIC because the POPE is against this shit.

I hate every bot I see. From gpa to gpt

1. "Here's an extreme idea. We're platforming it, so that people can watch out." 2. "This idea is gaining traction. We're publishing an op-ed in favour, for balance." 3. "This idea is popular now. Why does the left refuse to consider it?"

A big tent isn't an unlimited tent, you gotta have some principles that you want everyone to abide.

It's really important to find out you have the same taste in mystery novels as the elderly library volunteer Her: have you read these? Are they any good? Me: Yes! Do you like midsomer murders? Her: YES! Me: then you'll love this!

There is a kid at the library named Orson.

My pandemic Webcam broke 😢

My son insists on making his mii look like Bobby hill. Not on purpose he just likes it

Is this what you people fucking voted for

What's making me happy right now is thinking of Trump sitting/sleeping there, with ABSOLUTELY NO IDEA how hard he's losing.

Same vibe

The train stopped at south station and I didnt get up immediately because the crowd annoys me. Explain why some lady yelled "last stop last stop!" And laughed. It is too early.

Happy april 1st. Pretty sure I threw my mbta pass out with the piles of junk mail 😣 wooopsiiiiies.

The court is right — the government can't condition benefits on censorship it can't achieve directly. That goes for PBS, but it also goes for Brendan Carr shaking down broadcast licensees, Hegseth denying access to reporters that don't follow his unconstitutional rules, and more.

March books! Read the London Calling books because the third is coming out and they were very funny, reminded me of a more model and gay Bridget Jones. Husband Material is a love letter to four weddings and a funeral. I love how they both have their flaws and learn to love each other for them

We grabbed lunch and the food is good but they are blasting the local news and there are cop flags hung up. Too bad ollie liked watching the train go by from the window

Hunt is leaving greys. But the only thing that could bring be back is it turns out Lexie and Derek didn't die. McSteamy is also still alive but he works at a hospital in Hawaii.

That's right

Oh my god I remember a friend's boyfriend basically spent a whole evening saying "YOU'VE NEVER LIVED" about eating bacon??? (We all had had bacon he was upset that I stopped eating it at the time)

I was too busy this weekend to see the movie I wanted to and now the author has said something stupid. Just going to ignore it i guess. Ryan gosling is still cute.

The CNBC advice account about how to achieve your financial dreams simply reminds you to be Mark Mothersbaugh and write a song that is used in MTVs Ridiculousness, if you do that, you can retire with confidence

I don't 100% buy the "the same people who liked heated rivalry are now being homophobic bigots about bridgerton" narrative. There are probably a few but I'd be happy to tell them to go fuck themselves

The duplo train I got my son won't let you push it along unless it has batteries I guess? The back wheels are just locked? Wtf do i need a subscription too

lolling at this lucy arc

In all seriousness though, elder millennial jokes aside, I think it’s important to resist the media framing of any mainstream resistance to the status quo as just the shrill nonsense of middle-aged women with nothing better to do. This isn’t the first time they’ve run out this playbook.

Steve got all the peanuts comics on humble bundle for ollie to read. He would like you to know how cute early snoopie is:

Dozens of people showing up at members’ town halls in 2009 was enough for The Media to declare the Tea Party Movement™️ as a key force in American politics — for years — as the Obama administration was getting going. Consider that when you see how those same papers cover today’s protests.

NYT quoting AOC when she says “um”: This dumb girl can’t talk NYT quoting Trump after sticking a fork up his nose into his brain and rambling about sharpie pens: Doth thine lion howl with instincts known not learned by man, or sound his sonorous roar as prophecy to gaze back upon history itself?

People are mad the MBTA jacked up the prices for the commuter rails that go to the world cup. I think its good. It's only going to be rich assholes who can afford to go anyway. Those special event trains always sell out. Make some money off it.

just this week: -- OpenAI killed Sora -- Disney subsequently cancelled its investment in OpenAI -- Wikipedia is now banning LLM-generated content ...tell me again how this is all "inevitable" and you have to "get on board or get left behind"?

wait your telling me a candidate for president in 2028 is suggesting how we can make things better for ordinary people instead of talking about how gay his opponents are i was told no one can win this way anymore

Just wanted to confirm I can still read non-romance books. It is so good, I'm only like 40% and a part already made me cry.

if you’re really invested in watching a tv show or not respecting a boycott or whatever you could just do those things and nobody would know. nothing is forcing you to go online and list the the reasons why you’re still a good person

The beauty of Sora to me is I just feel vindicated in never taking the time to really understand what it was.
