This whole thing is *wild*. Shouldn’t happen to any duck, let alone a musicology one.

What an embarrassment. Literally the mind of an 8-year old.

@kylec.bsky.social I just saw 9news airing a DHS propaganda ad. I’m done with this network now.

How long before tv makers put ads on these “Art TVs”? www.wired.com/story/art-fr...

How about we don’t have another year for a change. It’s getting monotonous.

Just today I have unsubscribed three times from Consumer Reports’ mailing list. Consumer Reports is a spam operation

𝕏 is sans-serif swastika

And a big fuck off to all the companies emailing me on Christmas Day with their bills

TIL that on this day in 1868 Andrew Jackson pardoned everyone who directly or indirectly supported the confederacy. Just one point in a long line of failures to hold insurrectionists to account. We really need to either reform or abolish the pardon power

Whatever the opposite of toxic masculinity is, this falls squarely under it. Just dads being their best dad self. m.youtube.com/watch?v=R9XN...

I know that Navy ship’s classes are usually named for the first vessel in that class, but maybe we should make an exception and call the class of the USS Defiance the ”Lolita class”

Genuinely feels like an astroturf campaign by AI companies to shame us into using their products

On December 10 at the European Parliament, during a screening of documentary films about Ukrainian children, the interpreter could not hold back tears as 11‑year‑old Roman Oleksiv from Lviv spoke. The boy had survived the missile strike on Vinnytsia on July 14, 2022,

Kudos to Flemish media for their consistency in pronouncing "Warner Bros." as "Warner Bross"

Something about the J6 pipe bomber so far doesn’t add up. You think the election was rigged so you bomb the DNC and RNC? Putting on my conspiracy hat, I think the bombs were meant to go off and create a massive first-responder distraction from the Capitol riot. Bet there’s a link to the White House.

I want guillotines, but with rotating blades because efficiency is important in a capitalist society

I’m in an Italian deli about to eat an “east coast deli burger” which has no burger patties but meatballs so don’t tell me innovation in this country is dead

A strong floor and no ceiling is a terrible way to build a house

Pointed out by my friend @carloshasanax.bsky.social . There's something weird and unsettling about a fairly homogeneous culture spread out across Europe that then collapses into an orgy of genocide. www.science.org/content/arti...

Imma come out right now and say passkeys are bullshit. I was all in on them when they first came out, but now when I try to log In to a website they want me to go to the other end of the house to retrieve my phone and take a picture of a QR code to log in. How is this better than a password?

What the actual fuck? www.9news.com/video/news/l...

Sometimes you read something you don’t understand, and you sit on that thought for a while, and then you conclude that it’s probably a good thing that you don’t.

I own two immersion blenders. Don’t know how this happened, but it’s a fact.

If, at the end of all this, Bovino doesn’t go to federal pound-me-in-the-ass prison for life, I will personally start a revolution

It’s really weird how youth protests these days are being billed as “Gen Z” protests. We didn’t call anti-war protests in the US in the 60s as “boomer protests”

Can’t get over that these billionaire choads use fucking gmail

You can only talk about shooting people when it's in Reno, otherwise it's just a sparkling death threat

Heard Fetterman on Consider This this morning. This man is not well. He speaks in platitudes and catch phrases without any coherent argument behind them

I just love that in Colorado, if you’re an independent, you can choose which primary you vote in. Last time, the Dem primaries had at best one candidate per position. Why would I vote in that? Instead, I voted for the least horrible Republican on their slate.

I don’t even care who voted for or against. As from now, I’m voting third party. Anything else is a choice between Republican and Republican-lite. From the very bottom of my heart, seriously, fuck these morons

“Vote blue no matter who” lol no fuck that shit. If all I’m getting is Republican-lite, why not just vote Republican?

Just called @bennet.senate.gov and @hickenlooper.bsky.social. Left messages for both. All I can hope is that the crush of calls scares them into doing the right thing and not cave

Putting food on the kitchen table seems to me to be the kitchen tablest of kitchen table issues

If billionaires are upset people want to send them to the guillotine, just wait until trillionaires find out what we want to do to them.
