This is why I don't watch the news or listen to anything they disseminate. I do follow independent reporters.

All the greedy streamers are jacking up rates $30/year. Nope. HBO, Disney/Hulu, Peacock --- really, I'm not getting that amount of value from any of you. Might be time to read more books.

Send Disney all your extra Tylenol. I bet they could use it right about now.

We are living in the dumbest timeline. Our health is in danger from the agencies created to promote health.

I fully support the upcoming rapture. Godspeed y'all! #TeamRapture

Got my Covid and flu shots yesterday. I’m ready for the season #vaccination

My early thoughts on the Anthropic settlement: a) good, fucking pay us b) no, that’s not enough c) shouldn’t have stolen our shit to train your stupid mediocre plagiarism artbarf robot in the first place, you fuckers d) this isn’t something to celebrate; it is a Pyrrhic victory at best

For context that's a third the price the RIAA expected a single human to pay for just downloading 24 songs a decade ago (after cutting the ruling down from $1.5m, or $62,000 per song), and that's not adjusting for inflation:

A habitable planet is more important than the profits of a few fossil fuel companies. Pass it on.

The thing about mitochondrial challenges is that they don’t explain why the Epstein files are still sealed.🪄

Dan Jernigan: "we need to go back to following the science." Remember when that wasn't a radical idea?

I am loving Divine Rivals by Rebecca Ross. Enemies to lovers, “You’ve Got Mail” in a war torn fantasy setting where the messages are receive by magic wardrobe. I’m only 60% in , but already picked up the sequel. #booksky #readersky #romance

The Lazarus Project was great but I'm super bummed there is no season 3. Netflix has revived some shows, but I'd take a movie if a season is too much. thedirect.com/article/the-...

When did Amazon Prime add live tv streams?? Local news on repeat plus 500 channels of 💩

My grade school astronomy teacher always talked about Betelgeuse and he would have loved this post.

No Colbert, no need for Paramount Plus. In case you need it: support.paramountplus.com/s/article/PI...

why destroy the department of education? would you believe there's a creepy evangelical organization operating in broad daylight but under the radar whose meteoric rise goes a long way towards explaining it? today's column: buttondown.com/theswordandt...

I convinced my family that we needed cake for dinner. Wasn’t hard😋😋

Timeline cleanser.

and CNN, NBC, CBS. I'm not watching ANY mainstream news anymore. Bring on the independent journalists

Stay safe

As Trump and Musk attack each other, don't forget: their ongoing DOGE cuts have made your life worse. It doesn't matter who wins the Trump-Musk feud. Thanks to them, millions of Americans have already lost crucial public services. youtu.be/M5LD2CSOzmI?...

yes, the MAGA dads are fighting but this is a big deal, too:

Keep posting those screenshots for me

My goal has been to make Illinois the best state to raise a family — that starts with kids having access to what they need so they can focus on learning and growing.   Illinois was among the first states to implement SUN Bucks, and this year is no exception.

Watched Sirens and I’m not sure my time was worth it. I enjoyed cast, script yet the conclusion was unsatisfying. #netflix

WTF is wrong with everyone supporting this horrible, murderous legislation? We are beyond defining them as stupid, amoral, craven bootlickers. How do we fix this??

Rfk needs to go. Why isn’t big pharma fighting harder?

Grosse Pointe Garden Society on Peacock. Recommend! Gardeners covering up a murder in the most garden-y way. Intrigue, suspense, entertaining characters. I hope it gets renewed for a season 2.

Suits LA was not good. I’m not mad about the cancellation. I wanted to love it, but they should have made it its own thing because it lacked all of the magic an OG Suits fan expected. If you want to grift on an existing property, it has to match.

Here is a list I recently sent to premium members of what each of us can do to stand up for democracy and defend our elections. Democracy Docket is dropping the paywall and publishing it because we must all feel the power we have to stand up to Trump and protect our democracy.

If we come out the other side of this with democracy intact, I want to see some minimum job requirements like “worked in profession.”

Love my governor. I know people are hoping he runs for president in 2028 but I really don't want to share. We had a string of criminals before him

Call me crazy b t shouldn’t the surgeon general be a surgeon? Or at least have some surgeon-y skills ?

The cuts to science are ruining our future.

Just got an email today that moves me one step closer to unemployment. SIGH.

I’m so angry with these craven aholes trying to ruin my kid’s college education. We have saved for years and now they are fucking with the loans. #impeach #tuition.

top notch meme 🤣

I forgot to attend ! Thanks for the replay

I’m shocked an unqualified drunk who blasts war plans over Signal can’t do the job and everyone hates him. He should be fired #signalgate

If we are all so fat, bring down the $1k/ month cost of GLP-1 meds

More journalists need to talk about this the way Japanese articles do

There's a lot of good information about digital security here. I was using about half of these products, but have added several more and they've all worked flawlessly. karpathy.bearblog.dev/digital-hygi...?

All of this. Many women are getting late diagnosis too.

I know there is some anxiety around how to protect yourself in light of Muskrat and his herd of shitler youth getting their hands on all our personal information so here are the steps you can take to protect yourself. I’ve seen these in various threads but thought it worth putting them together🧵 1/?

Least favorite trope? Fated mates. I hate it. Can't stand it. #readersky #booksky #romantasy
