i'm a single issue voter and the issue is invent a cigarette that's good for you

The wizard's pajama robes are set on a little table next to the bathtub. He carefully steps into the bath. It is just the right temperature and the bubbles smell of jasmine.

It’s a disgusting double standard that exists to help the non disabled avoid facing the uncomfortable reality that one day they will lose their health. It doesn’t matter how fit you are, how hard you work or that you do everything “right”. You can become disabled at any time

I need people to understand that the only way to stop Trump from doing illegal things is to take action and provide opposition ; he’s not just going to start following laws

Just a superb owl couple, dressed and skating on a frozen river in seventeenth century Europe, with him holding a mouse in its beak, and her looking a bit grumpy because of the state of the world. This is what I call a #timelinecleanse. Not one #superbOwl but two #superbOWLS on ice. #skystorians 🦉

You bolt awake in your laboratory in Boston. You are not online. It is 1876. You are the inventor Alexander Graham Bell, and you have changed your mind. The future cannot come to pass. Phone must burn.

In June 1348, the first recorded death from the Black Death occurred in England. The disease entered England through the port in Weymouth. Over the next year, between one third and half of the population of England died of the disease

The FIFA World Cup has landed in Philly.

I made this Pride flag using only NASA images and our team thought it would be cool to share on social (I work on the NASA heliophysics communications team), but it's getting all sorts of hate on the bird app and Fbook. Thought y'all might be more appreciative of it here. ☺️🏳️‍🌈💖

the entire point of life is to be kind and weird btw

reports are coming in that jimmy fallon is slowly animorphing into a blind mole

The arc of the moral universe is this cunty rainbow, actually

The day after we got the world's first trillionarie but probably not related oooooops!

Happy Pride and all but personally, not with a 10-foot pole

Happy Pride to this Caravaggio self-portrait that made one man so gay he had to go to the hospital

Reuters: US JUDGE ORDERS TRUMP ADMINISTRATION TO REINSTALL SIGNS, EXHIBITS IT REMOVED FROM NATIONAL PARKS DISCUSSING TOPICS LIKE SLAVERY, CLIMATE CHANGE

Elon Musk just became the world's first trillionaire. The typical American household would have to work more than 11 MILLION years to make Elon Musk's level of wealth. We need a wealth tax.

It’s my birthday today. And I’m feeling extremely depressed today (/ this year, for various reasons). If you wanna do something nice, genuinely the nicest is when people read and share my work with others you know … I’m gonna share a few for you all to consider …

I literally had a high school ex (4 years ago) who was chronically undermeployed and drowning in his parents' medical debt tell me he was a libertarian because he'll be a billionaire someday and doesn't want to pay taxes then 🤯

Trump's war has wiped out an entire year and a half of wage growth

The government needs to leave X. EVERYONE needs to leave X.

I often hear people say that we need to include the Global South in CO₂ removal (CDR). I disagree. CDR is waste management and a bummer. Rich countries created this CO₂ mess and it’s our responsibility to clean it up. The Global South shouldn’t be burdened with this task.

This pride, try screaming

anyways so this is like the entire ai industry rn

actually extremely on brand to have to pretend to celebrate america's semiquincentennial in this, one of the worst years in living american memory

what is the purpose of mosquitos, really? why don’t we just kill all of them?

This just happened at family brunch on Sunday. "Animal" by Neon Trees put me back at Sports Authority in 2012 and it was miserable

You have to stop reporting what Trump says about the war or negotiations. This man either has no idea what’s going on or is just manipulating the market or both. There’s nothing valuable here. It’s a complete waste of time and it’s keeping people from preparing for what’s coming.

it’s pride and i know people have to navigate this stuff so i will tell you what i tell my students, which is every every time you say “that’s gay” or “you’re gay” i have lgbtq family members and it is a dagger in my fucking soul, every day you do that. so do with that information what you will.

Capitalists and their managerial class are fully detached from the reality of business. They don’t know how things are made anymore.

What is "Asleep at the Wheel for 200, Ken?"

A bunch of people on this site are being stupidly literal about the "HR lady" thing. It's not just about HR depts! It's about this idea -- absolutely ubiquitous over on X & in tech company boardrooms -- that bold, risk-taking "masculine energy" is being restrained by niggling nanny-state rules.

One interesting thing about The Iron Giant (1999) is that it's legit one of the best films ever made.

bisexual final boss

Are you telling me there is a limit to how hard you can squeeze working people??!!

We named our baby after a family friend who died of pancreatic cancer, one month after diagnosis. I want my kid to live in a world where this famously vicious cancer has better outcomes across the board

The media is going to learn absolutely nothing from this. The next time Democrats are in power, conservatives are just gonna rebrand "political correctness" to something new and we're gonna do it all over again.

Sorry baby, I passed

America was founded on an ideal, and that ideal was, "Fuck this tea"

Werner Herzog presents: "Vanilla Ice at 250: Lessons of Darkness 2, the Melted Boogaloo"

one reason we need to tax the rich is so that losing an unfathomable amount of wealth is something that will effect how they personally live their lives and not just an accounting error that doesnt even create a blip on their personal financial radar

I stewed on these ideas all day and then listened to a new @cancelmedaddy.bsky.social EP about "The Overseer Class: A Manifesto" by Steven W. Thrasher. Bought the book thru the affiliate link--this SO resonates with my experience in academia

The biggest skew in my professional life is how salaried, institutionally protected people - academics, nonprofit employees, the few commissioning editors left - just do. not. get. that the rest of us are wildly precarious, have fk all pension, can't afford to do what is to them basic stuff.

Of all the many things wrong with publishing today, chasing debuts is among the worst, especially when it's paired with a failure to edit and the subsequent abandonment of marketing promises. It's so destructive to young writers.
