I'm one of @alsobrooks.senate.gov constituents. It's impossible to reach her or any of her staffers, even though she's a Democrat.

And so, I leave enough voicemails that, at the very least, it'll be excruciatingly annoying to delete them.

Spite is its own reward when we have no other recourse.

It's an EP that's still analyzed frequently, mostly *because* of its context in time and politics. IIRC Frakes wanted the lead J'naii to be cast with a male lead. Specifically requested it. So yeah, sadly, even for its time it was held back.

It's the other awards shows that matter. Oscars is just pageantry and marketing at this point.

I suggest catching up on the destruction and chaos this very system has been causing this afternoon and all night. This is an extremely dangerous system.

Like this dude is using traffic cameras to silently watch one rain-wrapped tornado moving across the horizon while two other tornadoes are starting to touch down

Current radar of the US. There is a massive line of tornadogenic storms stretching from Texas to the Great Lakes. Just behind that is a record-breaking blizzard. There is also a cluster of tornadic storms in Florida. A screenshot of the ongoing livecast of "Ryan Hall Y'All" covering the tornadic and windiest areas of the storm in the previous screenshot. On screen is an embedded call from a young meteorologist named Andy Hill who is following a specific area very closely. Another screenshot of the ongoing livecast of "Ryan Hall, Y'all." On the left are several traffic cameras, which is how he is keeping an eye on real time weather in areas affected by tornado warnings. It is worth noting that there is a bar across the top that says "CRITICAL ALERT: TORNADO SIRENS REPORTED AS NOT WORKING IN LINCOLN COUNTY, MO"

I've learned that ppl all over the world truly think what they hear re: QoL in US is exaggerated

Our dangerous weather is famous

Weather stations everywhere were defunded last year

Understand how dire it is that our most reliable forecasting is now networks of 20-somethings storm chasers on YT

I'm in Southern Maryland, my NOAA weather radio hasn't been reporting anything since last year, it looks like all of our stations are offline even if the NWS site says otherwise. We need reliable and up-to-date reporting. This is a public service.

I will continue to be a PITA and say that reports about dangerous weather should not be behind a paywall

AI generated thumbnail for an AI-generated playlist called "Gothic Rock & Dark Metal Anthems." The band featured in the thumbnail is the famously goofy prog rock band Rush.

It's cool that YouTube just keeps getting worse at categorizing music lmao

I'm not much of a fandom person or even someone who really has "comfort characters," but I had one - exactly one - and this is pretty much the worst time possible for him to be casually killed off, and the creative behind him to stride off into indefinite hiatus.

The difference in that phone call between Justine and Marcus was *stark* and I really want to figure out - or have a good guess - who mis-remembered what and why.

Also the interaction between the cop and the junkie ... I feel like the latter might have been the most reliable narrator in the film.

I finally got around to watching "Weapons" tonight. I would just like to know how it is that I've watched multiple video essays about it, and not one of them has mentioned the narrative structure and perspective shifts? Because those are load-bearing elements of the film

Johannes Eckerström from the band Avatar, who was, in fact, a teacher until his band took off! 

He is a tall Swedish man with pale skin and long, wet, black hair. His face is painted with a black clown smile and black-and-red diamonds over his eyes. He is wearing long black gloves, a black vest, and black hat, and is reaching toward the camera while snarling.

Math teachers look like a lot of things lol

Dude speaks like a 9 year old, not surprised he's resentful of education.

He's talking about targeting careers.

I know from experience it's being used to "replace" or eliminate work done primarily by educated women.

The obliteration of the humanitarian field on both local and international levels, and the suffocation of libraries and schools, isn't a mistake.

Also an insanely intoxicated individual at the Blue Lagoon asked me if my facepaint was tattoos. So, thanks for that laugh, Blue Lagoon.

We were right there less than 3 weeks ago. From what I'm reading, there are empty lots in parts of Glasgow from historic buildings that burned in the 90s. I really hope the city can figure something out for that corner, and that the station is able to get back up and running soon.

So far all anyone seems to know is that it started in a dodgy vape shop. In videos taken really on you can hear the lithium-ion batteries exploding. Probably tried to use water to put it out. Then, *whooompf*
