Y'all want pitchforks or torches???

The battle for my waistline is "separate and distinct" from my eating habits

”...at no cost to the taxpayers." 😒

Keep the margaritas & tacos away from the bigots today. Deadass. You ain't about to be enjoying the delights immigrants have brought you while hating them!

Day late. Dollar short.

Meh... Idk. If you have to be less of yourself to make them happy, are they really worth appeasing on social media? Besides, people change. What happens when "...too much politics," becomes "...they're so out of touch and disconnected."? I get toning it down but the split seems like a lot.

Everything about this is a RED FKING FLAG. 😳😖

If anyone is still confused... we're the bad guys.

I don't know who needs to hear this, but... not everything NEEDS to be EXCITING. Also, taking care of yourself is its own reward (with dopamine and everything). WTF are we doing here??? 🤷‍♂️

"Burger King is piloting an AI chatbot embedded in employee headsets that will evaluate their interactions for friendliness… " Imentiv advises clients on analysis of candidates’ emotional engagement and personality type." Free: archive.ph/2026.05.03-1... "Step it up lively." - Hartman, Scenes… 📚

Dear fucking god the Astronaut Suicide Mario x Old Spice ad is real?!?!?

Not really surprising. I imagine that the overlap between people who WANT TO BE COPS and people who NEED TO CONTROL is fairly significant. These offenses should equate to jail time and automatic firing, but... they'd probably just join ICE. 🙄🤦

I've got some edits on my own stuff, then IDK. Might dig into "Knight of the Seven Kingdoms" and the new Clarkesworld issue. Chill Sunday. 🙌

Has anyone studied why so much of middle America suckles on Trump's teet like this??? I know, I know *bigotry*, but this seems like another bug ENTIRELY... They're like battered housewives defending their drunk and abusive husband. 😳

It already is more important than us (to them)... They've given it land, financial backing, natural resources, and an ungodly amount of data, while homelessness increases, wages stall, debt rises, education systems fail, and our air and water are polluted... The anti-human legislation is imminent. 😖

As expected, we’re going to see more language from AI leaders countering the job killing narrative around AI. Besides growing opposition to data centers, Sam Altman in particular survived two attempts on his life in April. We will see more efforts by the AI industry to counter the doomer narrative

The tech sector has invented fracking machines to extract VC money. That’s it. We’re all collateral damage to this.

The Cooke family must navigate the apocalypse when a radioactive infection takes hold--transforming its victims into monstrous, insectoid creatures. 💙📚

Not to sound cold... but if this administration is STILL SCAMMING YOU--you probably deserve it. 🤷‍♂️

Explains a lot... TBH.

Time is a flat circle.

I knew that someone would go for the "It's not me!! IT'S AI!!!" excuse, sooner or later... not at all surprised it's him. 😒

The Milla Jovovich series holds a special place in my heart (like Kate Beckinsale and the Underworld franchise), but I'm looking forward to this... Cregger's definitely a top-tier pick.

Can't be too careful. 😂🤣

Life's hard... death has a payment plan.

What if death is a commodity?

I feel lost when I finish writing something... my days lose rhythm and color. Time to hunt the muse, again.

"When men no longer feel honored, they're more prone to embrace the far-right narrative of self-victimization." Yeah...no. Those aren't Men, they are *boys*.

You can’t learn from you mistakes or grow as a person if you are always defensive, seek to justify them, rationalize them, or you can just never be wrong

Today is a reminder that except for a brief period running roughly from Brown v. Board to Roe v. Wade, throughout its history the Supreme Court has been a reactionary force protecting the wealth of the wealthy and the power of the powerful, almost always hostile to equality and justice.

Never been happier to have a busy schedule. It's too soon to adjust my dystopia meter... again.

Today's been great, thanks for asking

$6 gas is gonna suck. My summer plans are going to consist of staying at home and sitting in the yard under a sprinkler.

*sighs* Global diplomacy has been reduced to 'yo momma' jokes... I guess it's better than nukes. 😕😒

Very very good explainer for everyone's questions $2000 would change all of our lives. It's barely a drop for people earning millions every year. It's a no brainer

Have you seen Super Mario Galaxy???

LANDSMAN: You've cut healthcare by nearly $1t & now you're gonna cut the EPA by 50%. ZELDIN: I hear from Americans across the country happy to get more back in their tax return LANDSMAN: You don't talk to folks. That really isn't true. Nobody is saying 'thank you' for cutting their healthcare

Something tells me this case will be a WAY BIGGER deal than the coverage let's on.

wishing a happy "please don't let 'skeets' stick" day to those who celebrate

Narrator: "And yet 'skeet' did stick... all over the upholstery."

You can't make a kid believe in Santa Claus, once they know there isn't one (...not without doing some SERIOUS DAMAGE). The move is to adjust. We don't need to agree on reality (we never did). We need to learn how to leave each other alone, unless someone's getting hurt. That's it. 🤷‍♂️

What happened to "...paying for it out of his own pocket"???

Another BANGER from John Oliver 🙌🔥 We've been talking about this for a while now, so it's good to see it get this attention.

Saving your money is a good life decision... giving up your life to save money, not so much.

i feel like society moved on from these too quickly

"Hunks of the dessert were being sold, with the proceeds going to [...] support healthcare, education, and social welfare across communities worldwide.” 👏 🙌

Editing is fun because WHY DO I HATE IT NOW?!?!?! 😖

Finding the voice. I try a little bit of everything for the first few chapters, but I'm blocked if I don't nail the perspective and tone. It's like writing a melody vs. mashing piano keys.

"Nigeria is facing one of the most severe diphtheria epidemics in its history, with more than 2,000 deaths since 2022. "MSF are treating thousands of patients all over the country, and have vaccinated 100,000 boys and girls in the state of Borno, one of the most afflicted regions."

Why are we giving perfectly good drugs to fish?
