Josh Johnson is getting me through this one set at a time. www.youtube.com/watch?v=pxPL...

going to put on some music, enjoy a Tuesday afternoon, and think about where to live next. I am determined to plan for a future, whether or not I have to drive back Furiosa-style to wrest it from warlords.

Anyone screaming at people for talking about goofy stuff like movies and art online "while the world burns" has not for a single second considered or cared that the person talking about their joys night be doing so TO GET THEMSELVES THROUGH THE BURNING TIMES.

A tricky thing about modern society is that no one has any idea when they don’t die. Like, the number of lives saved by controlling air pollution in America is probably over 200,000 per year, but the number of people who think their life was saved by controlling air pollution is zero.

If I were to run for President, my platform would be simple: We Fight. We fight for health: supporting science, and providing healthcare to all. We fight for fairness: equal votes, equal representation, equal access, equal opportunity. We fight against oligarchs: at home and abroad.

Now free to read for everyone: Female monsters, gooey horror, Renaissance comedy, second-wave film critics, and much much more. It's a good time. Unless you hate horror, in which case it's a terrible time.

I wrote about the really horrid uncomfortable feeling of people laughing at something you think is cruel www.theguardian.com/us-news/ng-i...

Just sayin, if you invite me over next month and you have an Echo, you might not by the time I leave

People are like, "you'll get more conservative as you get older" but I'm 42 and my biggest fear is running over someone from DOGE with my car... and having folks think it might have been on accident

Feels like I'm leaving money on the table by not doing a scam or swindle of some kind. Would you guys buy a car for $100,000 if I pretended it can drive itself. What about a fake currency

You’re stranded on an island—which three books are you bringing with you? #booksky 💙 📚 (this can also be the "books I'd take with me next time we evacuate for a wildfire" list) 1. Among the Red Stars 2. Star Trek: Metamorphosis 3. This Is How You Lose the Time War
