I will never not be bewildered by people taking extra effort to be rude pieces of shit online

“Just eat rice & beans! It’s cheap & healthy!” I’m allergic to both rice & beans. I’m not alone Some people lack the physical capacity to cook Sometimes the most affordable option isn’t an option. Food isn’t one size fits all & disabilities are complicated. Believe us when we say we need help

so as this video points out, youtube is doing some hinky behind the scenes AI processing that's causing some videos to glitch/flash at regular intervals, and Anton is trying to get to the bottom bc it's a safety risk for ppl who're sensitive to flashing lights www.youtube.com/watch?v=2HY-...

Can’t say I know much about the powers of the Irish president but it’s interesting that this woman ran as a left-wing independent, won 63% of the vote, was lauded by her opponent, and is succeeding the man who took his adorable dogs everywhere. Seems a proper country.

What was a bear worth in Elizabethan England? Well, thanks to a deed held at The National Archives [TNA C 146/8581], we at least know a few specifics, like Nan, the old she bear, valued at 30s in 1590. www.nationalarchives.gov.uk/explore-the-...

Look I don't mind americans and the global anglos in general engaging with posts clearly not about them, it's when they try to derail the conversation and make it about themselves that I start to hear the Kill Bill sirens

Oozing with flair, and now a little more practical—it’s hard not to love Maeving’s latest ride.

Just saw an American comment on the Irish presidential election by saying "The backlash to Trump is here and its name is Connolly" and I am begging people to at least consider the idea that other countries have their own politics with its own motivations rather than just being reflections of the USA

Here’s where it gets personal for me. When I was 9, I started experiencing suicidal ideation … disinterested in living, and at least some of the time contemplating death and how it might happen … It’s easy to imagine how I would have used programs like these chatbots.

….you need to read and understand your contracts. You need to have your contracts read and understood by someone who a) understands the purpose of contracts & b) has *your* best interests at heart. Please, for the love of god, do not rely on some corporation's "AI" to "summaries" your contracts.

So many mushrooms in our local park this year. Here's a selection. 📷🍄

They have a quota of how many of us to lock up a day. A quota. Of how many Americans to jail every. single. day. That's neoliberalism working just fine.

"Women are not usually into science fiction"is legitimately one of the stupidest, most divorced from reality sentences I have ever read in my life

ya know, it only takes like 2 or 3 days of hunger before desperation sets in...42million is a lot of desperate people

This is a masterclass in repeating carefully workshopped robotic talking points that miss the forest for the trees and are irrelevant to the question at hand: Trump chose to build a ballroom instead of funding programs that would feed those kids.

they say stuff like this and you realize, they believe women just fine. they just don't care when we're hurt and think men should be allowed to paw at whomever they want without consequence.

Oh, life is a glorious cycle of song, a medley of extemporanea, And love is a thing that can never go wrong, and I am Marie of Romania.

tired of repeating the obvious: many men see sexual violence as, at worst, a forgivable vice or indulgence, a wink-nudge indiscretion. tacitly permissible, and women & children just chronically "overreact" and become "hysterical."

signs like these are up all over Chicago cafes and storefronts (here, cafes in Brighton Park and Back of the Yards) warning ICE not to enter without a judicial warrant

I spend all this time trying to figure out what the master plan is, and it always hits me: nothing. Just conspiracy brain worms all the way down. And the most smug self-righteousness as Kennedy and cronies destroy over a century of concerted scientific effort and hard work.

Welp The dead internet theory is feeling pretty smug right now

Show me where a water company doesn’t require improvement. Bring them all back into public ownership. Water wars are coming and private companies run for profit will harm us.

The vast majority of people are one accident or serious health issue away from financial ruin. They judge those who need social assistance without realizing that it could easily be them needing assistance tomorrow. You are closer to being disabled or homeless than rich.

So, Foster and Rahmstorf have clearly looked at the models. And all of them have us at 2.5 degrees by 2050. This should be fun (1) (1) If you are a rat, a cockroach or some form of necrophage.
