Jesus fucking Christ.

Seeing people in my academic cohort get promoted to full professor this year, and I'm just sitting here, unemployed for 6 years, struggling to clean my house and get my kid to school. 😫

Ouch.

Clint?! I wanted the Wizard. 😭

Money is made up. Scarcity is a lie sold by billionaires to make themselves richer.

I know it's not enough, but seriously, couldn't have happened to a more rotten guy. I've had a vendetta against this guy for the last 20 years. At least he's not failing upward this time.

I wish the New York Times hated rich pedophiles as much as they hate trans kids.

The article from Askell linked in this essay, about how killing predator animals is morally good, is perhaps the most idiotic thing I have ever read. This is a person with a PhD in Philosophy.

The only reason anyone in this house keeps me around is because I feed them.

Night in the Woods' publisher says TikTok is creating and running racist GenAI ads for its games without permission. https://bit.ly/4kKnB5L

Today is the first day of Ramadan, the first day of Adar, Lunar New Year and Mardi Gras. This means that for one reason or another, the majority of humans on the planet have a reason to eat fried food, and that is beautiful.

I was compiling data on witch burnings, as one does, and stumbled upon an important truth

No need for private texts here, Dr. Malone. AAP expressly asked for a preliminary injunction putting the February ACIP meeting on hold, since they're harming people. Public documents: litigationtracker.law.georgetown.edu/wp-content/u... Docket: litigationtracker.law.georgetown.edu/litigation/a...

They are dismissed as hysterical or non-expert or irrationally cautious. Then you wake up one day and Peter Theil and Elon Musk own your water and your attention and your political process. Then the men emerge to tell us what women told us a decade before.

I know the city has had its ups and downs, but I still think it's wrong for the govt to nuke El Paso

I love all my children equally *jump cut* I dont care for Aerion

Hot damn. I think my family might qualify for Canadian citizenship now.

At the risk of sounding like the coolest person ever, who even irons their jeans? You're not even supposed to wash them...

It's 10am. Have I done any sewing? No. But I have bought a loom and 3 books about weaving passementerie trim.

This is one of things. Bigtime.

U.K. might lose a prime minister because a guy who worked for him knew another guy who hung out with Epstein. Meanwhile the U.S. opposition party is telling our President, who was Epstein's best friend, that his secret police should get better training so their public street murders look less messy.

Recently wife and I stunlocked a guy who works in the bleeding edge of AI (San Francisco) and asked him if, instead of putting AGI in a brain implant, he can just start with a consumer printer that works reliably. Genuinely he did not know what to say.

Not surprisingly, I'm in the local ASOIAF fandom cluster. Hey, @patman.bsky.social, check out your nearest neighbor. 👋

I think I might be too autistic to get truly immersed in Bridgerton.

Who's the Super Bowl halftime performer? Wrong answers only. (She's not a bad bunny, she's just drawn that way.)

No Kings includes Draft Kings

I'm still sick, but I woke up relatively early this morning and felt pretty good so I made pancakes and eggs for breakfast and ran the dishwasher and started laundry. I must have overdone it because then came the nausea and overheating. 😭

The pronouns labeler shut down but there's a new one over here

At what temperature exactly does rat piss freeze? 🤣

I may have a stroke. Someone said protests don’t belong in church and it took every ounce of self-censure within me not to say “Deborah you are literally a Protestant.” A PROTESTant. I assume they think Luther was nailing Bed, Bath, & Beyond coupons to the door.

Obligatory 18th century dress workshop selfie.

The Epstein emails should really end the debate over whether society should have billionaires. "Do you want there to be a class of people so powerful they can fuck your kids and no one will even try to do anything" seems like an easy sell if everyone in politics wasn't trying to get on their payroll

PSA: 1. If you are not silly, it is vital you become silly 2. If you are silly, you must stay silly 2. If you used to be silly but have stopped, you must make all efforts to return to silliness

I have been laughing at this for a solid five minutes.

I told my spouse today, we're so old the musicals we saw as first runs are coming back as revivals. 😭

It's time to revisit this 2016 platform plank

We just have the president of another country locked up in a jail in NYC.

I think about this post a lot.

Alex Pretti was a colleague at the VA. We hired him to recruit for our trial. He became an ICU nurse- I lover working with him. He was a good kind person who lived to help and these fuckers executed him. White. Hot. Rage.

On a downtown street in Minneapolis, as people stream out from the massive march, Mary Tyler Moore says “fuck ice.”

when you TELL THE TRUTH about how current American atrocities are an extension of the atrocities that the United States was “founded” on - colonization, slavery So many people just IMPLODE into nihilism or denial. The truth is the only platform you can stand on to build anything sustainable

Oh, wait. Somehow she got even cuter. (I think her nose is cold.)

I had a dream a few weeks ago that I was at a Blues Traveler concert, and now they're going to be in town this summer? 😮

I wish I had never found out about Nerds gummy clusters.
