Read this as an American woman and then go break something.

people gotta talk about their shingles experiences. no one is going to enjoy this

imagining an all night diner in a redwall world. little rat smoking while cooking on a flaptop. burned coffee in an acorn mug. the whole thing is inside a pumpkin

some significant part of this is just catch-all fear for “this is not the child I ordered” I think

we could probably convince dan of this tbh

What makes me angriest about the fake AI videos where people yell at ICE is that there’s a million actual videos, there’s actual priests being pelted with pepper balls, it’s just that the real priest didn’t say “we worship the real God not your ORANGE one” so he wasn’t quippy enough

Normalize leaving a man in the craft store.

I fucking love memes you can understand through the language barrier, holy shit

Wonder how many people have made Pee-tah and SuperFudge jokes at the Judy Blume service stop on the Garden State Parkway.

a lot of people debating the merits of that dogshit essay meanwhile the girl’s mom is retweeting demands to ban all trans people from teaching at any level. it’s forest for the trees shit

you have to be able to look bad faith in the eye and say absolutely not, even if that bad faith is coming from the highest levels of government if you can’t, you do not - in any meaningful sense - have an institution, and all the kids who go there will learn is to weaponize bad faith themselves

every trans person i see post about the OU suspension knows that the suspended target is trans & a grad student, & has an innate awareness that this is about purging trans employees. every cis person i see thinks the target is a rando professor & that this is about giving conservatives good grades

I was diagnosed with #HIV in 1998, when I was 30. Many of my friends had died of AIDS. I did not expect to live to 50. I’m 58 now. HIV treatment works. Treatment also makes it impossible for me to pass HIV on during sex. Ensure HIV treatment for all. End HIV stigma. #WorldAIDSDay

What if we razed every Data Center to the ground and salted the earth where they stood

My mom makes $80k a year and tried to tell me the poor people want to go after her for her "wealth". I laughed in her face. Mom, you are the poor. Just slightly less poor. If more people knew how much a billion dollars was, we'd have had a revolution by now.

John Lydon is responsible for plenty of crimes but "Never Trust A Hippie" still hits

Sometimes, you wake up at 6:30 to feed the cat, lie down to do the crossword, and wake up again at noon.

The guy shot two random people with a gun, I don't think you can say he wasn't assimilating into our culture

we figured out that life sucks a little less if we pretend we’re in a Miyazaki film

Fine I’ll alt text it

Tired: The Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade is a long consumerist advertisement for a corporation-based American hegemony that peaked before the forever wars. Wired: Shaggy and Busta Rhymes are dad rock now.

good to know!

the thing about getting better is you have to get way worse first

"It is against the TOS to be talked into suicide by our LLM" is possibly the most evil tech bro thing I've ever read

Big news! The groundhog is back at my sister's and she gave him a plum

BREAKING: This is huge news, the EU's equivalent of the 🇺🇸Supreme Court's 2015 Obergefell v. Hodges ruling. 🇪🇺Court of Justice just ruled all 🇪🇺countries must recognise same-sex marriages granted in other member states. This effectively legalises gay marriage across 🇪🇺

The fact more people don't know about shoofly pie and that it should be available everywhere year round but you only find it in this tiny pocket of Pennsylvania Dutch country is a shame. When I left Philly my favorite baker made me a shoofly pie to go and I ate the whole thing at the airport

I have 99 problems right now and money would solve 98 of them.

Holiday season remember! Don't ask strangers questions about their family if you're not prepared to be cool when they cry because they're in mourning, get anxious because they're estranged, or generally find the question invasive and uncomfortable. If they brush the question off, let them.

normalise serving chocolate milk at parties

Good morning to every single person in the Philadelphia area except Kevin shitass Patullo.
