Epic thread. Worth a read if you’re interested in long-term storytelling.

STEPHEN MILLER: you have no idea what you have awakened. we will save the West. we will turn darkness into light. we will rise like a phoenix from the pit of fire and EVERYONE ELSE AT THE DUNGEONS AND DRAGONS GAME TABLE: ROLL THE FUCKING DIE ALREADY

He’s absolutely already told Stephen Miller to get rid of another one so he can do this again

They still haven't consolidated full authoritarianism yet; they can still lose

Oh wow.

We really can’t understate the psychic toll of knowing that the United States government is trying to kill as many people as possible

Hnnngh I’m trying to hear the falconer but the gyre is dummy wide

I’m not interested in stealing anyone’s boyfriend. If I wanted a boyfriend, I would simply go to the Boyfriend Store and get one

Not to state the obvious, but if you're getting a disease 5-10 times, you're clearly NOT developing natural immunity .... (wear a mask because immunity to covid doesn't really exist!)

No shade to anyone, but I have just realised that most folks don't realise that US govt linking autism to Tylenol doesn't have the getout clause of "just use ibuprofen". Why? Because NSAIDs are contraindicated for pregnant folks. See FDA, and Gov.uK here www.fda.gov/drugs/drug-s...

Call me Icarus the way I’m regretting these hot wings

Here is the current bottom of the thread if people want to read up from it: bsky.app/profile/raha...

The updated COVID/histamine link thread because people keep tagging me in to explain it and I keep intending to update the post from 2023 (synecdochic.dreamwidth.org/805203.html) and just not having the capacity because of my own health shit so here is a thread I can pin

woke up as a skeleton and so obviously first thing i do is try playing my ribcage xylophonewise right? bad idea, i hit one rib and instantly pass out from the pain. don't even know what sound it made. life as a skeleton sucks. i gotta pee and i don't understand what to do about it

The brain damage from 2019 is pretty undetectable at this point, but I continue to need to google every knitting technique that I don’t use in every single project. I feel like I should be able to retain knowledge of German short rows! And yet. Aaaand yet.

Catching up on ROH and amused to find, in Jordan Oliver vs The Beast Mortos, a non-porn use case of “oh, this twink is gonna get destroyed.” 🤼

everything about this is iconic, from the hair to the shoulder pads to the reveal that she addresses herself as “bitch” to the absolute murder in her eyes in that first shot. that is a woman who homophobes would cross the street to avoid for fear of their life. absolute ally goals

What if they’re RIGHT, but “the rapture” is actually a man from Mars, and you try to run but he's got a gun and he shoots you dead and he eats your head, and then you’re IN the man from Mars, and you go out at night eating cars, and soon enough bars (where the people meet) and finally just guitars?!

Trump Spends Entire U.K. Trip Trying To Figure Out Where He Knows Prince Andrew From

Oh hey, I was told that political violence was bad, but Elon Musk just unbanned a guy who founded a violent neo-Nazi street gang that requires people to commit assault against unarmed protestors in order to advance ranks in the gang.

I meant this deeply: My work now is all dissent work. I write for a future I likely will not see.

One stark marker of how much our society has devolved in just a few years is Bob Iger personally got on a call to convince us to let Disney/HULU make the 1619 Project. That America no longer exists.

Disney adults canceling subscriptions, vacations, etc really are making the Harry Potter adults that threw a fit over a $60 video game look like huge bitches

“A successful and healthy response to COVID would have seen our public toolkit expand over the last five years. Most critically, we would’ve seen a comprehensive plan for upgrading indoor air quality in all public buildings.”

The best thing about the ABC/Disney boycott is that zero point zero percent of participants are involved because they love Jimmy Kimmel so much and really want him back on television because's so funny and great. It's a movement of pure political principle.

tony khan i hope both sides of your pillow are cool at all times

you come to me, on this, the 21st night of september, and you ask me if i remember

You guys, so many Romance girlies are reading "On Tyranny" that they've broken the Goodreads recommendations algorithm. 10/10; no notes. #romancelandia

A press release to beg people to stop criticizing Trump and DHS & ICE agents who are attacking U.S. citizens, kidnapping people off the streets, operating concentration camps where members of Congress are not allowed in, and rendering people to foreign lands they've never been to 🤔

As a Troubled Teen Industry survivor: yeah. Fun fact: when these camps kill kids, they just dissolve the corporation, rename themselves, and repeat the next time they kill a kid.

Obvious to say, but the algorithm will be manipulated to amplify MAGA disinformation and throttle anti-Trump posts.

Dear #AEW, - More intergender matches, tags, cooperation/fighting - More women's stables/groups, storylines - Women's tag & trios belts - What do the Death Riders think about DCF/Triangle of Madness? - What do the women think about Death Riders/DCF? - Conglomeratin'!

Things I loved about Stat's win last night: - Pinning Toni, not one of the other two. - Winning cleanly. - Not joining the Death Riders. - Not turning on Harley after. Things I didn't: - The match was too short. #AEWAllOut

I do not like this thing where my phone autocompletes words while I’m texting. Clive Barker’s _The Great and Secretary Show_ would be a very different book.

I swear birds know when you’re opening the Merlin app.

Someone canceled a ONE HUNDRED FIFTY THOUSAND dollar wedding

I personally wouldn’t fear anyone the way I would fear the wrath of a grown adult willing to shell out $100,000 to get married in Cinderella’s castle.

The tacky aftermath. #AEWAllOut

The effect of car dependency: in 1940, Basil Rathbone was photographed wearing an overcoat outside his home. As more men relied on cars, overcoats became shorter to accommodate drivers. Today, the right is marketed as an "overcoat," even if it would've been considered more sport coat length in 1940.

Hangman has so many boyfriends we stan a poly king 🤼‍♀️
