A Brief History of Kids Today Are Selfish 🧵

I do not think there is sufficient appreciation for how catastrophic yesterday’s decision in Slaughter is for this country. As Justice Sotomayor said in her dissent and she intoned from the bench yesterday, “today the majority reshapes our Govt.”

Best Twitter riposte of the day.

the feds have done more to harass americans angry over good and pretti’s killings than they have to investigate them

a real "best drummer in the world? he's not even the best drummer in The Beatles" situation

Me after reading the first post: c'mon, Walt, that's silly After reading the second: oh shit, he's right

OUR PRIDE FUNDRAISER IS LIVE ON INSTAGRAM! This design is exclusive to these annual auctions, so this is the fourth ever set to exist as we run our fourth fundraiser for Space Youth Project!

Honestly, just a great answer.

One of my closest friends is in a very tight down ballot race and I keep scrolling here looking for info like I would for a US House race or something and IT IS NOT WORKING.

I regret to report that I have once again somehow gone over my monthly budget on #ttrpg.

I don't recognize the names and normally I would object to the abuse of statistics, but fuck it, great speech. Love this city. Love the joy.

The syllabus of this case does an excellent job of making the reader ask "huh? are we really deciding constitutional gun rights based on how much beer early Americans drank?" The historical interpretation approach sounds so much more sensible in the abstract than when you read the actual analysis.

Ossoff on Mike Collins: "He's pro-war. He's pro-tariffs. He's pro-cutting your healthcare. He's also a notorious bigot and antisemite, and an election-denying extremist who is only a congressman because his daddy was a congressman, and is a Trump puppet who will serve his needs & agenda mindlessly"

Probably the most nakedly sociopathic thing I've ever heard anyone say. I lack the words to describe this evil.

All of these are gonna get stolen. All of them. From pix11news on IG.

Name a TV show you're positive no one remembers but you.

From the bottom of my very being: Go fuck yourself, you piece of shit.

My @shelbykat.bsky.social space dice arrived (so lovely) and they came with a surprise gift! Thanks, Katie, made my day! 😁

Would probably have understood herself and come out a lot earlier if her parent wasn't awful.

Pretty sure the large gap between mothers and fathers has no root cause or further social implications.

💯this. I cannot imagine having been a feminism or race scholar these last 10 years. The power of that "I told you so" frustration could power a sun. Cassandra had nothing in comparison.

🎶In the greatest city, in the greatest city, in the greatest city in the world🎶

New York City is the most perfectly "American" place in the nation, just one wave of newcomers after another, gradually building up the culture, one remarkable cultural collision after another. MAGA chuds hate NYC not because it's awful but because it disproves every lie they tell about immigration

Weird request: Does anyone know of someone who could help me work out the ocean currents/wind patterns on my OC world with weird climate and cosmology? Happy to pay for someone's time. Purely for personal use. #ttrpg #science #climate #ocean

I'm not really a sports person, but I LOVE New York City and I LOVE joy and this is pretty great, not gonna lie.

Remember this scene the next time a corporate reporter tries to insist that a rural diner full of white men in their 60s is somehow a more authentically "American" place, somehow more representative of who we are as a nation.

The Lincoln Memorial is this nation's secular temple. It's solemn and sacred space. And this is desecration.

I'm more and more coming around to the view that parents of sons needs to treat "you matter because you're strong" as every bit as horrifying and pervasive as parents of girls treat "you matter because you're pretty."

In trying to think about this I looked up a few dates and I cannot wrap my head around the fact that Trump announced his candidacy (June 16, 2015) 10 days BEFORE Obergefell was decided (June 26, 2015).

100% true. I still think about my biggest mistake about 10 years later. But I owned it internally. And we owned it to the judge. And the judge was gracious and we won anyway.

Don't anyone tell him about roads, which could also be turned vertical. They won't fit on his fun little cardboard rectangle!

Ramona was awesome to work with and I absolutely love how they came out. Some of the details tie into the lore in really fun ways. (And for everyone who doesn't automatically recognize medieval welsh instruments, that's a crwth!)

My god, Octavia Butler, just miss ONCE

When you follow a bunch of TTRPG artists, the start of pride month is pretty dang gorgeous. So much art!

I think we all know that if Harris were President, America 250 would be the concert of the century. Swift, Beyonce, Grande, Bad Bunny, Eilish, Lamar, Carpenter, Weeknd, prolly Springsteen and McCartney. Like, musicians would be murdering ppl to get a slot on stage.

We do not help men when we emotionally stunt them

Take it from an immigrant, 👇 kind of stuff is what makes America a uniquely amazing place: a blend of cultures to make something innovative and new (and frequently, delicious).

Very interesting 🧵. My instinct was the opposite, and that is precisely why you should ask an expert, like 👇, and not just go on "lawyer instincts."

Did not expect to see the problems with the entire digital economy so expertly and succinctly stated in a papal encyclical.

A PhD student at Stanford noticed her classmates were asking Al to write their breakup texts. So she ran a study. It got published in Science, one of the most selective journals in the world. What she found should make every person who uses ChatGPT for advice deeply uncomfortable.

Here it is. Precisely what everyone should be saying. So clear. Simple. Decent.

I always come back to Lincoln on Memorial Day

Deleted a post because further context revealed that the person I was making fun of was being satirical.

I highly recommend that everyone follow artists. If you do, your feed is filled with art every day. Real, original art. It's bonkers that you can even have this. Amazing. Undeniably cool. And then support those artists, when you can, because that helps the delight continue.

I didn't get into Cambridge's philosophy undergrad. Went to Chicago instead. Met the love of my life. Became fascinated by the last subject I wanted to explore. Law school, marriage, kids, in that order. All because I bombed the Cambridge entrance exam. Best failure, among many, of my life.

Hi! I'm challenging Simon in large part because of her NIMBYism. I know that we need new homes in our neighborhoods to accommodate everyone who wants to live here & will fight to get them. Chip in to help me win! www.secure.actblue.com.actblue.com/donate/lydia-green-1
