"mommy why is Teheran a green crater" "well, this one video game about depression got a good review from an ex boyfriend..."

I once saw a non-Native guy drive through a residential school memorial march on a reserve, while shouting slurs against Native people and it wasn’t called a hate crime. In fact the police defended him. That’s everything I need to know about ‘reported’ hate crime stats.

Not a fan of the trickle of commentary types migrating to YouTube from Tiktok, because they're so cowed by the algorithm they're indecipherable. "So he watched Netfilx with you-know-who and did what he did if you know you know..." I don't know! That's why I'm watching a video about it!! SAY WORDS!

I used to watch the Rapture wanting televangelists types for fun... Jack Van Impe would be sickeningly joyful if he was still alive. The only televangelists worse than prosperity gospel guys (though there is also a strong overlap).

This is what I grew up with. And when I reference the genocide of Palestinians and the war with Iran to my parents, they say, “I’m glad, it means Jesus will come back soon.”

The American evangelical right is absolutely shitting themselves with excitement over this. There is nothing on planet earth that they want more then a destabilized Middle East at war to trigger the rapture. This is 100% fact even though it sounds ridiculous.

on the stream today i was struggling with css grids and someone new said “just ask chatgpt lol” and i said i don’t have an account but i understand the impulse and then we looked at some css tricks articles together and they asked me for advice on their first dev rel job. real human hours

Yep

The dude sounds like the fucking loser in Portapique, NS, back in 2020.

My hottest take is that we condemn raisins in cookies when we expected chocolate but we should also condemn chocolate chips added to banana bread and cheesecake without fair warning.

i am starting to see stories of trump voters, whose businesses depend on undocumented immigrant workers, expressing how cruel these raids have been. i’d be willing to bet that they themselves have used calling ice as a threat to exploit their labor. i would refrain from amplifying their tears

So fanny packs/bum bags are back aviators are back hi-top fades are back mullets are back How much time do we have until some streamer idolized by adolescent boys starts unironically wearing a fedora

You don't have to be ChatGPT to be confidently and loudly wrong, turns out

The Flyer. 1/4

The media initially portraying this as a spat between two neighbors instead of a married couple enduring terrifying ongoing harassment over their love and inherent traits should shame multiple outlets.

Jonathan Joss was Comanche and Apache and an openly gay actor. He was murdered while looking at the remains of his dogs at his own house that was burnt down. The killer yelled homophobic slurs before shooting him. This is the real world consequences of the hatred that the right commodifies

The episode where bluey, bingo, and muffin are playing Grannies at the neighbours yard sale is comedy gold.

A house is a very large machine composed mostly of wood and full of expensive parts that keep breaking.

Canada's shameful secret.

I'm curious the assumptions that go into calculating data that says the tax disparities for median wage earners are so high between the US and Canada. I've paid staff in the US and Canada, and the US staff took home less. Compare BC to Texas, the difference is $150/paycheck thehub.ca/2025/05/27/t...

Hey you yeah you A month from now when you are really hot and go scrambling for a new fan or AC And can’t find any They are in stock now

Any money you spend on Harry Potter stuff is directly supporting this www.them.us/story/jk-row...

Watermelon. Artificial watermelon is absolutely gross.

There’s been some amazing Stephen King adaptations but when you watch a bad Stephen King adaptation it really gives you an appreciation for his prose because yeah the plot really is that stupid, the movie people didn’t come up with that

i will never forget the people and publications who legitimized this and other/future genocides by calling it simply a “debate”, like it’s normal and ok to argue for the murder, mutilation and starving of children

Fucking THANK YOU. Like, for real, I need a lot of you to dispense with the fantasies of objective, impartial tech. You are watching the intended purpose of this shit on display as we speak as Grok is hammered into compliance behind the scenes.

Everyone who has ever had to work under a conflict-of-interest policy knows that you can't do anything that even gives the suggestion of impropriety, because that is what destroys confidence in systems, and you will always be judged based on the worst interpretation of the situation.

Meshes well with my belief that if men were the ones who got pregnant, abortion meds would be over-the-counter and next to the Tylenol at the CVS, and you'll never convince me otherwise.

If you're doing physical therapy or working with a personal trainer, ask where you're supposed to feel each movement. Sometimes you will use different muscles than you're supposed to and hurt yourself.
