Tragic. I hate it.

During a military-style raid on a building in Chicago’s South Shore, one resident heard a knock on his door. 

It wasn’t the feds —  it was a mom and her 7-year-old daughter, pleading for help.

He let them hide in his unit for the next 3 days.

Would you like some good news? A new vaccine has just been approved for protecting koalas from chlamydia, which is one of their leading causes of death.

“I think it's worth to have a cost of, unfortunately, some gun deaths every single year so that we can have the Second Amendment to protect our other God-given rights.”

I learned this well over 6 hours ago and Im still thinking about it

TIL that Danny Bryson of News AF @robhasapodcast.bsky.social has never been on Survivor. And I'm still in absolute shock.

I've been watching all of #Survivor for the first time (im very unspoiled on most survivor). Ive just been waiting for Danny to show up, but HE NEVER PLAYED

Pay them what you owe them!

The Connecticut labor movement was proud to stand with members of the WNBPA at the Connecticut Sun game as they fight for a fair contract.

Respect the players by paying them their fair share.

(And the Connecticut Sun won 87-84!)

DS9 scene. Rom is a Ferengi hero who has a large bald head and giant ears and lobes that sort of connect to make a unibrow and a ribbed pine cone looking nose. He's wearing a jacket that looks like those lick and stick backsplash tiles you can get at Lowe's. He's pictured here standing in a corridor, talking to someone and holding/reading a PADD. Closed caption reads, "Workers of the world unite. You have nothing to lose but your chains."

We built a calculator that doesn't work, but don't worry, it's also a plagiarism machine that will tell you to kill yourself. It runs on the world's oceans and costs 10 trillion dollars.

when the AI bubble finally collapses and everyone who spent a year smugly hyping it suddenly has to come crawling back with their tail between their legs, i just want to say i am not going to be the bigger person about it. i am going to be meaner than you can even believe

Who was Blue Kim up against ?🤔

The HVAC specs for the BSL3 lab should not, and do not, need to be applied to the entire building

Tong has been one of the more active AGs in pushing back against the federal government's antics. But at least in my experience things are the about the same as a month ago here in CT. not great, but not as bad as it has been elsewhere

A two-panel comic titled “ADHD Paralysis.” The top panel, labeled “Looks Like,” shows a simple white character lying sideways on a blue couch, staring at their phone with a neutral expression. The room is messy, with clothes, books, mugs, and a backpack scattered around. A thought bubble says, “Whatever, I don’t care if it’s clean.” The bottom panel, labeled “Feels Like,” shows the same image, but the background is overlaid with a large block of cluttered, anxious inner monologue text about wanting to clean but feeling overwhelmed, guilty, and stuck. The text reflects racing thoughts, procrastination, and self-criticism.

It took me a long time to realize that not everyone has to argue/negotiate/shame their brain into doing routine household tasks.

Staaaaaahp! I am crying!

The newspapers are not making a big deal of this today. This is a big deal. Someone shot into a Federal building repeatedly, fueled by misinformation and politics. It should be front page news across the country.

Illinois is the first state to ban AI therapists Illinois Governor JB Pritzker has signed a bill banning AI therapists into law, the first in the nation.

Her name is Kirsten. She's a really good person and actually playing a pretty good game so far, so let's at least respect her enough to call her by her name when you're fishing for likes.

I’ve been teaching the histories of eugenics for over a decade and I honestly never thought I would be able to use an American Eagle ad in a lecture to demonstrate how dangerously normalized eugenics has become in 2025. A lot of it is the global ascendancy of far right fascism but also the pandemic.
