“Darkly amusing to see Bernie Sanders, who has often referred to the Nordic States as an aspirational model, cosponsor this.”

gotta convince this barista to marry me using nothing but my coffee order
It’s kind of incredible how he was apparently just working his way through conditions one could have to link to vaccines and eventually happened upon that took off
Andrew Wakefield’s earlier 100% fraudulent paper linking crohns disease with mmr vaccination is still published and in good standing with the journal by the way
fuck this so much
we are so not prepared for the mountain of dogshit “scholarship” about to flood journals everywhere
who even thinks of this shit
what is wrong with these people
It's all gender isn't a joke or a shitpost. Gender really is a driving force in this horrific insanity.
im not surprised the higher ups didn't consider this but they have hundreds and hundreds of guys whose job it is to obsess over this sort of thing. i think what this has to mean is not that the plan doesn't exist, but that people repeatedly handed it to them and they all just ignored the document
don’t get me wrong, sex is great, but have you ever had someone be patient and gentle with you when your abandonment issues are acting up
Bush II set the bar very high but between this, USAID, the mass deportation atrocities and a conservative projection of the result of the anti-vax movement I think we can pretty definitively say Trump is the worst President now
Long prior to the evolution of great apes (including humans), ancestral apes were climbers. But what sort of climbers were they? An argument exists that they were slow, leaf-eating 'cautious climbers'. I've just revamped my 2019 article on this subject... tetzoo.com/blog/2019/3/...
I don’t know if shaming the warehouse owners can stop the ethnic cleansing, but it’s good for the spirit.
I want to present to you all the chart of the pig domestication pathways from Max Price and Hitomi Hongo’s 2019 “The Archaeology of Pig Domestication in Eurasia.”
There is a delightful shitpost energy to these graphics and I have been sending it to friends captioned merely “pig chart.”
I feel like honestly we're being a little bit too generous to the median voter. The median voter isn't bigoted because they're just too stupid to know any better - they're stupid because they're too bigoted to engage fully with reality.
Oh to be a little Tardigrade walking across a microscope slide. 🫧🐻🧪
We're going to read about right wing women and "zionism for everyone" on stream at 4 pm on Saturday.

Another tough day for team “there’s no point in complaining about AI, just accept it.”
I met with AI data labelers in Kenya who are organizing their colleagues to fight the brutal working conditions and horrible pay given to the workers at the "bottom of the AI supply chain." They believe the NDAs they've signed are unenforceable so are speaking out:

Ohio school board member resigns following our questions about his social media posts denying the Holocaust.

picture gambling addiction in the 90s... everybody socializing. people living in the moment, not a phone in sight. beautiful
worth remembering, David Lynch directed “fix your hearts or die” specifically at transphobes. it wasn’t a generic “no mean people allowed” statement, it was said by his Twin Peaks character in defense of a trans woman he cared for and deeply respected.
In “The Mandalorian and Grogu,” we learn that Grogu’s preferred pronoun is “babyyoda.”
Thomas Massie may be on the right side of a couple issues today, but we shouldn’t forget that he’s bought and paid for by Big Listeria.
