"babies are born worshipping unknown gods" is one of the most incredible dwarf fortress bugs i have heard of. its poetry.

the yellowcake paper openly admitting that their editorial standards are no higher than the new york post's

Nothing ventured, nothing gained

Dressing a giveaway to insurance companies as progressivism was the point of doing universal insurance without a public option

theres a reason you never, ever, ever under any circumstances adopt the rightwings framing of an issue: their brains are so warped by their cruel, mendacious worldview that their priors are built into the foundation of everything they talk about. to adopt their framing *is to accept their worldview*

"I'm too old for this shit" written in the style of the Mamdani Sign Generator, https://homes.luddy.indiana.edu/ccshan/for/for.html

the zohran meme generator, but changed to be some C code, entering the main function and starting a for loop.

pre-writing a devastating obituary for your enemy is god-tier hating of a kind you don’t often see anymore. renaissance haterism. beautiful stuff.

It's funny how laser weapons in sci-fi are associated with "kids' shows" because of the way a lot of media historically used them as an excuse to avoid blood and gore, when the reality is that a pulse laser weapon used on a human being would be almost unbelievably gory

matrilineists: yeah we just write down who comes out of who

judge: simple & ea—

patrilineists: their system will make men feel cucked! we propose a vast surveillance system enforced with physical & sexual violence

j: and that will make men feel less cucked?

p: no it will make us feel more cucked

What haven't men ruined

Apparently one of Mark Zuckerberg's daughters is named Maxima, so that's multiple acts of naming your kid after a Nissan in the wild

Mamdani, aged 11, asking for SimCity 3000

Turns out you could not, in fact, cut back on funding

one of the things that always makes me see red when depp v heard comes up is heard was like the perfect victim—she was pretty, white, well-off, and *had the mental wherewithal to extensively document the abuse she was subjected to as it was happening*—and people trot out She’s No Angel anyway!!

"your passport says you're 5'7" but you were 1'8" when you were born so that's what we're listing" this is what that sounds like

"without subjecting anyone to differential treatment."

This is flatly false! Trans people with a passport that does not match with their plain appearance when presented to a border agent is subject to additional hassle compared to a cis person presenting a passport.

in practice people only avoid assuming pronouns for people they suspect might be trans, it's just woke degendering

photo of a sign outside the door of the Oval Office, reading "The Oval Office" in gold bullshit script, made out of three sheets of paper

[P] Found a higher-quality photo; IT *IS* TAPED UP SHEETS OF PAPER!

Police: Portland area crime ring trafficked 44,000 stolen catalytic converters; 14 indicted The thousands of catalytic converters, stolen since early last year, had an estimated street value of more than $22 million.

remember when everyone blamed the plague of catalytic converter theft in portland on the homeless?

and then it turned out to be a small ring of professional criminals — led by a man LIVING IN LAKE OSWEGO?

this fact should be immortalized, it should be engraved on a shrine that is also a shelter.

🧵

honestly the entire thing mostly just feels like an excuse to blame neopronoun and they/them people who wanted a shot at ever being gendered correctly for the bad behavior of pig ignorant cis people half a decade ago and have since basically given up

let yourself taste the hope and then move on it's not real

mamdani is human. he'll fuck up and fail, especially with a hostile press and the giant mess that is nyc's politics. but today is a great day for the brave women who told what cuomo did, and for those of us who care that it should matter. that power shouldn't go to those who hurt the poweless.
