Every year we all cry out for a better more kind loving comforting year and every year we do it knowing the next year is going to be such dogshit, such incredible terrible dogshit and there's absolutely nothing we can do but withstand it for another year

And that's the triumph of the human spirit

ALSO ME: I wonder if there is a way that I could relax that would be more productive

When I was 5, I loved science, which I took to be planets and magnets and chemicals and shit.

Soon I realized science was a collective human activity, and these were just the objects of its attention.

Anyway, whenever I read an OpEd on how science isn't political, I think "Are you 5 years old?"

Democrats have spent years carefully abandoning political positions it fears might cost them votes, each time getting closer to the ultimate goal: a political party that has zero positions and therefore cannot lose votes.

Analysis | Virginia votes for divided government, rejecting Youngkin’s pleas Democrats took control of the Virginia House and kept control of the state Senate, dealing a blow to Gov. Glenn Youngkin’s conservative agenda.

Glenn Youngkin : I am a moderate republican please give me full control of the VA legislature so I can ban abortion and trans care to feed my presidential ambitions

VA voters : how about u get fucked

Absolutely nothing better than putting a pot of chili on during a nice fall day 😋 Cozy season is upon us (fingers crossed)

Maybe - just maybe! we should leave complex geopolitical issues to the countless experts/journalists/people who actually study/report/experience these issues every day instead of farming rage interactions on the internet from people who couldn’t find either on a map without Google’s help.

Yknow? I DON’T think we need to hear every single person’s take on the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. Especially not from people who have formed their entire opinion based on news headlines from the past 72 hours.

Also when talking about influencing systemic changes to a meaningful degree, that takes extended *time* (unfortunately). Writing a book where the oldest movement is just over a decade old feels…disingenuous at best.

If you are still playing videos at full volume on public transit in the year 2023, the other people should be allowed to kick you off at the side of the road/track. If you do it during my morning commute before my coffee? Immediate jail

Opinion | America Chooses to Keep Child Poverty Alive We have eased child poverty before, and we can do it again.

It is beyond immoral and unconscionable that in a modern and affluent society we still cannot take care of our children and keep them fed (He said, screaming into void once more).

if i send you a work email and there are zero exclamation points in it: you are dead to me. if I sign off with "Thanks" instead of "Thanks!!" i am angrier than i have ever been. i am on my way to your house. i have sworn myself to vengeance and will not sheathe my blade until it has tasted blood

Welcome to Bluesky! Here's a few rules you must follow:

1. Put a content warning on any post that includes the word moist.

2. Always use the hashtag #freethewhales. Otherwise, we will assume you are in favor of whale incarceration.

3. Tell five of your friends to join. Yes, it's a pyramid scheme.

just throwing out ideas for the bluesky dev team as i come up with them: bluesky should release a steering wheel peripheral that you plug into your phone or computer. you turn the wheel to navigate a menu with every letter of the alphabet, then to post it you honk the horn
