If you want something wholesome and endearing to do today, keep the Tesla stock on your screen.

short chaos memo today.

So now that apparently we’re doing the whole is autism caused by vaccines scare mongering again (I’m Wakefield’s number two hater), I’m reposting my nib comic about autism and vaccines thenib.com/how-anti-vax...

"we're going to take an hour of your life away so that you have more sunlight for work" sounds like some DOGE shit

Need this game badly

Tomorrow in NYC will be sunny & pleasant. This will be important.

Can someone please tell this stupid sonofabitch how tariffs actually work?

Good Morning! Are you just finding out about the Amazon boycott today? Welcome! Didn't have a chance to prepare? OK. Pick 1 thing you normally buy that you can shift. One real easy one...switching from Audible to @libro.fm for your audio books.

This makes life harder for Mainers and government less efficient for no good reason.

Sometimes I really regret not following my high school dream of being a cool radio DJ

[doing my daily affirmations in the mirror] i am the horror and i will be persisting

I'm not sure whether this weird musical theater thing they keep doing is meant to shame their opponents (who cannot be shamed) or assuage their constituents (in place of actual action), but someone needs to tell them it's not working

Fresh from the kiln

I've officially been sick for six days and while I'm able to prop myself up enough to work at a snail's pace today, I am snotty and coughy and I just want to go back to bed

Mexican communities across the U.S. are mobilizing against Trump’s deportation threats, staging widespread protests in urban barrios. Despite their scale, these demonstrations have received little mainstream media coverage.

I am not making this up- this morning I woke myself up croaking YOU'RE JUST MAD BECAUSE I CAN GET MORE GIRLS THAN YOU because I had a dream a homophobe was protesting a parade I was at NyQuil, man

If he had listened to a single Noah Kahan song he would have known what to expect

Absolutely never going to stop bitterly laughing at how every time someone posts a "support THESE companies and boycott THESE" and then a few hours later they post an "updated" list after feedback where half the "good" companies moved to the other column because actually all corporations suck

im going to lay on the floor

“VANCE SKIS IN JEANS” is so devastating

Fox News reported that JD Vance had to move to an “undisclosed location” due to protests at the Vermont resort where he’s skiing this weekend. For inflicting misery on the world and here at home in America, this is exactly the energy that should greet Vance wherever he goes for the rest of his days.

Waking up with arguably the worst sore throat of my life and a lot of chest pain today. Whatever I've got going on is likely just regular flu but damn she's keeping me on my toes, with a fun (shitty) new symptom every day

One data point from today's economic blackout: PSB took in about twice as much cash as we typically do. It would be damn swell if that kept up.

Last night I'd really thought I'd kicked this thing but this morning I have completely lost my voice and have a low fever again. I'm so mad. I have so much I need to be doing

I would suggest that if you're participating in the blackout today, that should also include which media you are consuming/sharing.

My Murphys? Dropkicked

There was a Pokemon Presents today and I missed it??

Very full of feelings that my wife's mom and sister have both reached out to see how I'm doing. Feelings very loved

Spaghetti, sauce from a jar, bagged salad: when you want credit for cooking dinner without any significant cooking.

spotted this at the gay bar in NOLA over the weekend and i’ll never stop thinking about it as long as i live

Thought I was just dealing with some bad med side effects today but the accurate recreation of the Exorcist is just performed is pointing to something a bit more buggy. Ughhhh. Wife didn't even blink before helping. I am so lucky.

...someone just posted on FB that they're filming part of the third season of Severance in town today????? Here???? In Orono??? I'm not convinced but WHAT

Remember folks, it's just as important to call your reps and thank them for doing the right thing. Even if the bar is on the floor.

Fun fact about Medicaid, folks who aren't really into politics don't necessarily know that they are using Medicaid. A shocking number of folks in Maine don't know that they use Medicaid; they use "MaineCare", unaware it's the same program. 62-90% of MaineCare is federally funded. #mepolitics

why am i here *mindless scrolling* this is effectively making me feel worse *still scrolling* i literally can't stop what the hell *more fervent scrolling* SOMEONE HELP I CANT STO

Chest rub enjoyer #yourdailyjacques #frenchiesofbouesky #dogsofbluesky

This vote was to start the process of the cuts. It WILL come back for a final vote. There are some chances to slow or potentially stop it. Need constant pressure on GOP Focus on GOP swing seats & key committees. Energy & Commerce is where the Medicaid fight will go down. Ways&Means for tax fight.
