When i was in middle school, i once asked a teacher if we might one day gene engineer humans to be able to accept animal organ transplants. They looked at me like I was crazy. Yesterday, the FDA approved using animal organs that have been gene modified to work in humans.

I was pretty damn close.

I feel like a prison that you enter without trial and can only leave by dying is just a death camp with extra steps.

Do we have a source for this statistic? I dont want to repeat it without fact checking it.

supporting your public library is so sexy

Today my anxiety is like 'hey I know you walked into this work training with other professional peers, signed in, put on your preprinted name tag, and sat down at an assigned seat.. but what if you're still in wrong place... '

Charlie Chaplin dressed as hitler

Remembering today that Chaplin self-funded The Great Dictator because the studios were too afraid of taking sides when there were so many Nazi sympathizers in the States that they didn’t want to alienate

So if I’m understanding today correctly, the world’s richest person Elon Musk, whom no one elected, is taking over federal payment systems and employee data while the federal employees who investigate and prosecute public corruption are being fired en masse.

The "first they came..." poem gets quoted and quoted and quoted and quoted and you know what, we do in fact know who they're coming for first, right now, and that is trans people, and the answer needs to be "absolutely the fuck not, you motherfuckers," full stop.

My first reading ofthis was that a punk band played really well behind that dudes office.

If I was president, and I thought I was immune to law enforcement, and some 4chan dweeb sieg hieled at my party... his next thought would be 'is this a sleeper hold?'. That's all im'm saying.

What are they even collecting our data for. Are there rare data. Are there data shinies

someone on tiktok said, “we’ve got 7 lex luthors and no superman,” and i can’t stop thinking about it

He did WHAT to the merchants? And the MONEY LENDERS too?!?! I didn't know this, unfollowing him now

At this point i think itd be funny if Nintendo never announced the Switch 2 and it just showed up on shelves one day.

After over a decade of doing mascot work on the side, i can definitively say: Spongebob Squarepants is the most popular cartoon that kids want to punch. I used to think it was the padding... but Bluey has just as much padding and foam. No one punches Bluey.

To an asshole, all virtue is "virtue signaling."

Cyclops cause he's a mostly decent skinny dude whose done his best to turn his anxiety to his advantage.

One thing about me is that I do absolutely suck at listening to stories about weird, apparently paranormal things that happened to you.

100% intolerable “that was definitely a drone” and “you can stop worrying about your past lives because they don’t exist” shit.

I honestly kept watching that guy's comments and waiting. Dudes profile pic yelled 'eventually problematic'.

To prove im not an AI bluesky's captchas made me pick from pieces of art that AI made... the future is wild.
