The phrase “ parents have a legitimate concern about integration of races in schools and as a party, we haven’t done a very good job of listening to those concerns.” would shock and offend I would hope. A similar statement about trans kids should also shock and offend.

I genuinely ❤️ Washington, DC. I really do. Sorry to be so sincere and all that but I just kind of feel the need to say this. I lived in Arlington for years and went into DC as often as I could because it genuinely is amazing.

i bet the realities of being a ninja really set in when you're trying to get all your throwing stars back after a big battle

And we see once again the magic "maybe in the next 5 years" timeframe. GenAI is perpetual futurity; everything is going to happen 5 years from now, maybe 10. Just you wait. And in the meantime, more venture capitalists belly up to the bar, because what's the harm in another round of drinks, right?

Local journalists make everything Middle East analysts do possible

Israel's murder of Anas al-Sharif and several other journalists isn't just an egregious war crime during a genocide

It's a direct attack on the world's ability to know what's going on in Gaza

Remember that

BBC International Editor Jeremy Bowen has confirmed that the entire Al Jazeera team in Gaza City has been killed.

Do not mistake my rewinding for kindness.

Just sent a text that was emotional, vulnerable and included the phrase “I think I’m finally healing.”

Unfortunately, I sent it to my plumber and he just now replied with “I’m proud of you!”

Fuck this AI shit

It’s unprofitable dogshit that doesn’t work, nobody wants, and makes everything actively worse??? But I’m not an Economist so what do I know

in case of
emergency

crumble

actual thought I just had: “is there a way I can carry emergency feta cheese with me everywhere?”

oh noooooooo

how did any of us get through school without it?

😂

[20ish years into social media] I really need to get over typos and move on.

so many question!

very confusing (JW PEI?) ad: left: sultry woman in a lavender shirt holding a…plastic pigeon; right: two images of the pigeon, one with wings raised the ad says: back to school sale

do what now

WHAT part 2

I have no idea about the person/people in the car. I hope they got out before it burst into flames.

in 2025 this country still treats internet/cell service like they’re a little luxury instead of vital utilities

I did finally turn around, go back down the mountain, and drive 20ish miles to get up the mountain a different way.

Where the wreck occurred and for a lot of that drive, in fact, there’s no cell signal. I could have done the emergency call I think, but goddamn.

I sat there for a while unsure what to do because executing a 3-point turn in the dark was gonna be tricky. Emergency vehicles showed up a few minutes later.

I was probably about 10 miles from my house at this point.

it’s not everyday you come around a hairpin turn at the top of the mountain and are greeted by a stopped vehicle in front of you because in front of it is a car halfway off the road fully engulfed in flames

Oh, I know!

I haven't been feeling well. I've got butterflies in my stomach, ants in my pants, a frog in my throat and a bug up my ass.

I showed up to my evaluation last year with a spreadsheet. 😂
