After the first “HR chatbot coaches laid off employee in how to commit suicide” headline, it’ll become a corporate standard.

No one is coming to save us. Instead the bad guys are consolidating power.

Righteous anger at the genocidal policies of the state of Israel is sure giving a lot of folks what feels like a free pass to demonize Jews in general.

The Lawrence Summers Center for Gendered Computational Excellence and Moral Turpitude.

We should work toward building an Air Bud Cinematic Universe.

He’s leaving to spend more time with the kids.

Mid Isaiah Scroll. It’s just deutero-Isaiah and the stuff shared with Kings.

For the record, I am not down for Gen X’s generational on-shitting. There are still plenty of boomers alive and we haven’t even gotten a smiths reunion tour yet.

What in the demobilizing bullshit…?

Lefties need to resist the urge to watch this and feel like it’s a win for us. We need to feel this man’s grief and recognize his anger at not being able to love his country right now.

We need to be cultivating anger and humility at this moment.

36 years ago today, the Pale Blue Dot picture was taken by Voyager 1, from an unprecedented distance of over 6 billion kilometers (3.7 billion miles, 40.5 AU).
The Earth appears as less than a pixel; just a tiny dot against the vastness of space, among bands of sunlight refracted by the camera lens.

Real talk: Your rhetorical gifts are wasted on the academy.
