I'm going to start keeping a log of the unofficial taglines. This goes to the top of the list.

When she wakes up, tell Ginny she's great and deserves more chips. <3

📌 Pinning because this is a lovely, clear exposition of a very common version of the defining right-wing social hypocrisy.

This was uncalled for.

In the immortal words of Shoresy, "Let's set the fuckin' tone!"

I and my three backup pairs of Duer field pants (fatigues) salute you. I will probably die mad that they discontinued these pants.

three people in my Baltimore network have contracted COVID in the last week, stay safe out there y'all N95 masks still work xoxo

Same!

"SHAKE. FOLD."

I wish I could turn this post into a little magical banner that would float above his head and follow him everywhere.

At what point will this lawless bullshit drive some of these orgs to just disobey on moral grounds? This stuff is paid for and sitting around. At what point does it just start...falling off trucks? I don't know how to misdirect a truckload of medical food, but surely somebody does!

Listen to Mr. Cubitt. Do you feel funny? Do you have a sore throat? Do you have "little cold" and think you should probably still go to work? Take a test. Remember, if you can only afford one test, wait a bit: It will be more effective on Day 3 of symptoms.

And wear a fucking mask in the meantime.

Fuck. Sorry. I hope you can get LOTS of rest and recover well.

My paternal grandma had TWINS at 40-ish after a gap of a dozen years. It was *not* planned and it turned out to be the kick she needed to divorce my grandfather.

He doesn’t want to “reduce chronic illnesses,” he wants to reduce people with chronic illnesses

They lie, they resist the progress of actual medical knowledge (however limited/biased it may be), and they DO NOT LISTEN to us. It took me five years to get my endo diagnosis. By the time I went for surgery it was stage IV and I weighed less than 100 lbs because it was strangling my intestines.

Jazz haters suck

Fingers crossed for a little mini gayborhood for you.

I remember his completely toxic harassment meltdown but I did *not* know this before. Ew. EW.

Oh, wow, this is the first time I've seen your work—so lovely!

Ugh, I should go next time. I am so lazy about getting across town to the market.

the USA built a system of higher education so good that smart/rich people from across the world came here, spending billions to learn here, subsidizing education for Americans while spending money to live in our cities and towns. our government arbitrarily decided we should stop doing that

UGH. I hope they get the permit and fix this.

📌 Pinning because I am shamefully monolingual and this is fascinating.

It is precisely the unsustainability and undesirability of AI that makes it so important for fascists to push thru. It is a perfect object for their attempt to make the world as they want it regardless of what anyone else wants. It's not about profit, it's about power

Seriously, this is how we develop sense of humor and advanced language skills! (Also, a ready supply of "kid stuff" that isn't the intellectual equivalent of mashed banana helps keep parents from going batty. It is GREAT for adults and children to be able to enjoy some of the same things.)

I feel genuinely silly for not knowing about this before. I'm gonna get it.

Cat just did a shot of Malört.

I think this is the case, unfortunately.

I have certainly had someone I thought would be in the know ask me why I'd put in a longer hyphen.

I take calculated risks, too! This is exactly why I talk about this stuff. I wear a mask *all the time* in indoor public spaces to lower my overall risk and make spaces safer for others. That's my "normal," so that I can have clear judgment if I want to make an exception.
