I’m reading an article about Chris Cornell and how he didn’t like Sammy Hagar or Bono, and I was right there with him, and then he mentioned David Byrne and Prince in the same list like, gtfo

i’ve never had Manhattan clam chowder, but as I’m sitting here chugging Clamato- that’s basically just hot Clamato, right? with potatoes in it? i think we’re about to become a house divided

this is about MeEeeEEeee

ICE is attempting to forbid prayer outside their detention centers it’s particularly interesting/galling in light of the same administration’s push towards religious freedom they wouldn’t be doing it if it wasn’t having an effect i hope the christofascist agents have a crisis of faith/conscience

It looks retro Irish-for-St-Patrick’s-Day but would kill a child reared on Potato and British Colonialism.

i’m torn on this i will happily look the other way if my kids are watching most age inappropriate things; exploration is part of learning i watched RoboCop much younger than I should have. i still turned out OK as an adult (within reason) RoboCop never offered to help write a suicide note, though

if i was Baron Harkonnen, i would simply never get out of that oil tub thing

i don’t think i’ve ever been called out to this degree. i know the experiment’s going badly, Kelly. no need to point it out i’m conducting it in full view of others. we’re ALL watching, all taking notes the subject is being HIGHLY uncooperative, but she’s SUPER charming, so we keep choosing her 🤷🏻‍♀️

I think I got to the bottom of this: @jillbles.bsky.social was right, it was dehydration It’s hard to know for sure whether I have POTS or chronic dehydration, but it was significantly worse last night, as a side effect of meds I’m currently taking off to shower and drink ½ gallon of clamato

thank goodness for naps. Naps are amazing still not 100%, but significantly better

i am suddenly and inexplicably sick as a dog i went from feeling fine to being genuinely worried I was going to pass out in the matter of about a half an hour

i’m never sure if I’m high class or low class, but I had a brie and bologna sandwich for lunch

as a computer scientist, i am BEGGING people to realize that there is no cognition inside of an LLM no reasoning, no thought process, no self-awareness I read a lot of arguments (for AND against) LLMs, and both sides seem to think there’s a consciousness or intentionality or even a moral alignment

actually, my greatest fear about changing my profile picture is specifically that people won’t know who I am i know that that’s probably not likely, but I also like to do silly variations on the name, and the two in conjunction could work together against me

new pfp, who this? shout out to @thoughtographic.bsky.social (one of my top-2 favorite Justin McElroys) for the art

I’m only ok for four more days and then I’m going to be flat broke and unhoused without even SNAP. 😰

remember that desirability will not protect you don't confuse approval with safety you can't opt out of patriarchy they trivialized femininity, now they want to monopolize it don't suppress the feelings that make you human stop performing the version of yourself you think will most likely be loved

Satisfactory is, as predicted, CONSUMING my free time an exceptionally well named game, honestly this is scratching in itch i haven’t had satisfied in a very long time.

we don’t really talk about politics at work, but I’m interested to see who is in a good mood and who is particularly churlish

i will carry a torch for her for my entire life she was brilliant on Taskmaster. a sparkling wit, shrewd thinker, a lovely personality, and SO DRIVEN she taught herself how to ride a bicycle in one session because one of the challenges required it the fact that she’s an ally is icing on the cake

Schumer needs to resign. Period. Full stop.

But WHY should anyone's focus be on flipping red and purple states to blue? Is the purpose to HAVE power? Or is the purpose to USE POWER to do certain things? Mamdani is proposing using power in good ways. Third Way is proposing that we give power to Democrats with no thought to how it is used.

@erinbiba.bsky.social a little something to celebrate this moment

has anyone checked in with James Carville since last night? i’m dying to hear polo shirt Skeletor try and frame this in a way that doesn’t reveal himself to be fully out of touch

well it seems that they can suck it

i’m not the sort of person who I thought would ever say “boy, I’m sad Dick Cheney died“, but I do sort of wish he had stuck around another day or two

If you’re wondering what the future of the Democratic Party looks like, watch the young, brown democratic socialist on the TV right now.

santos is really ramping up the Corky St Clair vibes tonight

it is three minutes to midnight, but I have successfully established a perimeter

english friends, help me out i’m trying to understand what’s up with the former Prince Andrew Andrew Mountbatten Windsor is: - no longer a prince - no longer the grand old Duke of York - a commoner (no peerage) - not allowed to live in the Crown Estate but he’s still eighth in line of succession?

reshared for alt text and my excitement smashing through the ceiling like a cartoon rocket

they should call me sleepyhead the way im passionate about her pits

I got hit with a gigantic wall of tired while putting away groceries, so I never even had supper, let alone the energy to try on all the new lovely stuff @editrixbecks.bsky.social gave me SO MANY gorgeous things, some of which I can wear now, and some of which my body needs to mature into 🤞🏻

@brianna.bsky.social eat my nonbinary ass you quisling

🤬💔😞

Running out of funds fairly quickly just staying sheltered right now

i feel like i’m becoming completely unfiltered/uncovered/honest-to-goodness-what-i-look-like headshot, will probably delete pretty soon

i think that if you send an unsolicited dick pic, you should get exactly one warning for being an inconsiderate asshole if it happens a second time, i think you should be branded, so others know the sort of person you are, and what you might do to them

There is neither dignity nor respect in segregation. It doesn't matter which group is being segregated; this is a universal truth.

I’m Team Meggie all the way Stone rants about Platner Random person agrees, links to a Platner reddit post as evidence Stone is confused, SWEARS he’s being accused of being the real author of Platner’s post Meggie tries to correct him, he turns on her, says she’s doing her jewish identity wrong

i wish amoxicillin wasn’t such a horse pill i dry swallowed it, and it went down sideways
