This is from 2022 but it's still true.
Seriously if you cut out all police dramas from your viewing you suddenly realize how many fewer things you can watch.
When you buy Harry Potter, you are *literally* hurting trans people and queer people. In real life. She uses that money to lobby for legislation that hurts transgender people. And she is winning! Due to the massive amounts of money that you give her.
For years on my old blog I published the names of servicemembers who died in Iraq & Afghanistan. No other outlets were.
These are the first 4 Americans to die in the Iran War.

Sgt. 1st Class Nicole M. Amor, 39
Sgt. Declan J. Coady, 20

That's funny, I could have sworn he said something about not needing Royal Navy vessels because the war was already won.
You broke it Don, you fix it.
Every right-of-center regime in my lifetime has done politics by pandering to the two core principles of the American Rube: (1) things are bad because of Those People and (2) being Tough / Not Woke is the forbidden ritual magick that would Fix Everything if our weak leaders would just use it. (1/2)
A really interesting realisation I've come across in my work when discussing the size and scale of extinct animals in relation to their environments is that no one knows how tall a tree is
i will die of starvation before i pay "dynamic pricing" for a loaf of bread, hate these freaks
“Fuck! I’m dying!” during a press conference. “Fuck! I’m fucking dying! Oh God, it hurts! Ahhhhhhh!” Trump said in response to a question about the ongoing war in Iran

No quarter is the refusal to take prisoners and instead just execute everyone. It's been considered a war crime for over a century.
the stink of gender resentment coming off Silicon Valley has been obvious for a while. these men hate women because they hate being told no.
My vibrator never tells me no. Except that one time I lost the charger.
Currently talking to all these fine people about THE STORY OF STORIES at South By Southwest. Signing at the SXSW Bookstore in the Hilton Downtown at 4:15 this afternoon. Language did not give us stories; stories gave us language. #SXSW

I could write an entire essay about the absolute complexity of the reaction on his face to the most crazytown bananapants batshit answer I’ve seen in a hot minute
I'm suing Grammarly over its paid AI feature that presented editing suggestions as if they came from me - and many other writers and journalists - without consent.
State law requires consent before someone's name can be used for commercial purposes.
