those fuckers put AI on my phone without asking this sucks

How the hell did I miss this? Its like minutemen + saccharine trust what a great album www.youtube.com/watch?v=2S7c...

Lionel Richie for Senate No, really, why not? He seems okay, he's from Alabama, and he could maybe win

Part of the nice thing about this app is that it is not really that engaging. Less is more, I guess.

Bluesky seems very nice and friendly to me. Not sure what the fuss is about, but if you feel like people are being rude to you.... maybe the problem is you?

Unless they are talking sbout formal systems, anyone who says "you can't do xx without yy" is wrong. You actually can.

Back in covid quarantine. Fuck you to all the politicians, covid denialists, right wing hacks, eugenicists, racists, libertarians, corporate shills, originalists, tech bro utopian shitheads, and other random assholes who made our covid response a world historical disaster. Great fucking job.

Except they didn't. "Don't believe the hype" should be the first rule of bioethics and related fields

Dear NPR reporter: No, I don't want to talk to you for half an hour about my area of expertise so that you can learn "background" and then create a segment that doesn't mention me or my work. Why would I want to do that? And no, it is not part of my job.

My high school graduation was NOT like this

The room is starting to fill up for the graduation celebration for Rickard's High School class of 2025

The signifier and the signified have finally had enough of each other's bullshit

👋 Hi, we’re Unbreaking, a volunteer-run collective working to document our current moment of institutional collapse and its human costs—as well as the pushback and resilience work already underway. We believe this is critical work for building and retaining political agency.

We should all be alarmed that the people in charge of our public health institutions are calling for a review of the safety of medication abortion based on an unvetted and flawed report. The science is clear: this medication is safe and it works.

almost shot myself in my finger with my new nail gun. Be careful out there folks!
