A friend of mine has a date tonight and she promised to send me a photo of her date outfit but she didn't, which means she's really excited and I'm so happy for her :-)

Connected with a high school classmate on social media and suddenly started seeing suggestions of other people from my graduating class. Went to add one as a friend only to see she died of cancer aged just 43.

Too many of my friends are dying young. Fuck cancer.

And fuck the regime.

Happy upcoming birthday!

I am once again asking organizations to proofread their videos’ captions before uploading.

Just saw a TEDTalk excerpt where the speaker said "in thrall to" which was captioned "enthralled to."

Digitally re-created title page of John Locke's ‘Two Treatises of Government’

Preparing for the U.S.'s 250th by reading some of the documents pertinent to its founding

ND's Klau Institute for Civil & Human Rights is searching for a postdoc; candidates from political science, econ, and sociology are encouraged to apply. I've been on the Klau board for a long time and this is a great group of folks, esp director Jennifer Mason McAward. apply.interfolio.com/177620

The seditious conspiracy statute, 18 U.S.C. § 2384, criminalizes interfering with the government "by force," so it's not obvious how a video posted online would fit.

"Catahoula Crush" sounds like the name of a peewee baseball team

Bookmarking this so I can ask my wife later (she went to a Hebrew day school from grades 1-3)

"Journals of the Continental Congress"

Williamsburg, the capital of the colony

Dec. 4, 1775: The Continental Congress nudges Virginia to establish a new government in the wake of Lord Dunmore’s actions to declare martial law and free slaves who will join the loyalist cause. The colony should “call a full and free representation of the people,” the delegates resolve. 1/3

In my last story of the year, I participated in Antigravity Magazine's 2025 top 5.

A friend of mine used to have a theory that the U.S. presidential election was always won by the candidate with the best-looking hair.

Perhaps, similarly, the post of village mayor is always given to the man with the most impressive moustache!

Sulu's expression in this photo: "Bruh."

Sergei Lavrov is proof that, if mud or clay are not available, a golem can be made entirely out of shit.

"I will tell you this, though. Every night I go out on my front porch to watch the sunset, and the sun always sets on the left. This is no coincidence. The sun's woke agenda must be stopped."

Yeah, I had to do a cleanse by searching for my regular hobbies--folks doing gardening and carpentry and whatnot. I don't need my phone thinking I'm a dirty old man!

Getting the kid back to Sesame Street and Mr Rogers’ Neighborhood after a week with her Boomer grandparents who think the appropriate response to any strong emotion is to suppress it and say "I'm fine"

Public service announcement: Teaching your kid that emotions are bad is some shit-ass parenting.

It gets creepy! I wanted to buy my wife a bra using an Amazon gift card I got, so I had her use my phone to go shopping. Next time I fired up Instagram, I hit the "search" button to check in with a friend, and every single reel under the search box was some young woman doing a titty-shaking dance. 🤢

"At least $5.9 trillion will be inherited by billionaire children over the next 15 years, the bank calculates."

Lucky chicken.

I see CNN has forgotten the word "whom".

Must've thrown it out with their scruples.

Hi other tech folks! Does anyone have recommendations for trans-friendly recruiters on the West Coast?

I’m a lead product manager with around a decade of experience. Looking to shift back to a salaried position after consulting the last couple years.

Reposts appreciated, thanks!

Maybe he thinks, stupidly, that it will help him earn the Nobel Peace Prize.

Same.

If only there had been signs that a group of below average men who espouse misogynist views and are led by an adjudicated rapist would treat their female colleagues poorly.
