Frog and Toad ate many cookies, one after another. “You know, Toad,” said Frog, with his mouth full, “I think we should stop eating. We will soon be sick.” “You are right,” said Toad. “Let us eat one last cookie, and then we will stop.”

masterfully agile of you, president scrummaster. this will surely remove all impediments to efficiency and good governance. finally government run like a poorly run tech company, with leaders who don't understand production or the "customer", everything we ever wanted and nothing could go wrong

Remember to keep your eyes on the prize: the future world you want to build Don’t drown thinking only of the things you are against Remember to dream of and work to create what you’re for

The focus of Democrats like Durbin and Klobuchar on doing away with 230 while the republic is being destroyed right in front of us is just part of the world-class point missing that has become the Democrats' trademark.

Do you like having free access to #recipes online that are real, work, have actually been cooked by actual people & will probably also work for you? Don't use or share genAI swill. Don't trust the AIsearch summaries or w/e GPT/Gemini/etc is hallucinating. Support cooks & creators & share our work! 🍽️

Food pic Friday thread! I'm working on a bunch of new posts, & will post recipe links when they're done. Here are some teasers! Indian food deep dive this week: palak paneer w/ homemade paneer, sambar dal, basmati, buttermilk na'an, cucumber raita w/ coriander chutney & mango pickle, yum man. 🍽️🍜

Fucking set it all on fire. Burn this fucking shit down. After it is fully burned, pour gasoline on the ashes and set them fire some more just to make sure. If you feel the need to be like anyone in this ad, I greatly advise that you should probably seek professional help. Fuck. I hate it here.

It's pretty cool that Eater put together resources for restaurants about how to handle ICE raids

I was at a punk show in 83 where a skinhead jumped up on stage and gave a Nazi salute. The bass player hit him with his bass, knocking him into the crowd and 150 people collectively hauled his ass out of the venue and threw him in the mud. This was the right and only appropriate response.

20+ years ago my college dorm had gender neutral restrooms (showers were separated by gender on alternate floors, but if it was late no one cared and they all had stalls with curtains, so again, who cares?). Was approved by unanimous silent vote every year. Was absolutely not a problem for anyone.

Just a reminder that you're not crazy to think it's mother fucking insane that all *flails wildly* THIS is going on and we still gotta go to our dumb little jobs and do the dumb little tippy tappy on the keyboard. Let alone like fucking feed ourselves and take care of shit.

does your timeline need some happy little trees? Yes, it does.

Also acceptable: exemplary service in the dish pit... still looking for a good print/woodcut/icon poster of "Everyone wants a revolution but no one wants to do the dishes" for ours (and @greeshmcqueen.bsky.social has a b-day coming up if u have links).

I heard the NEA is only considering proposals related to 1776 & the USA’s 250th birthday & I was feeling intensely patriotic, so I’m printing these really big posters inspired *directly* by the Founding Fathers The cut was carved from the masthead of a 19th century newspaper

“After we’ve discriminated against, deported, or disparaged all the immigrants, the gay and lesbian and transgender people, the developmentally disabled, the women, and minorities. Once we’ve ostracized our neighbors and betrayed our friends… what comes next?” - Gov. JB Pritzker

I want this energy from every single one of our elected reps rn: "My oath is to the Constitution of our state & of our country. We don’t have kings in America – & I don’t intend to bend the knee to one(...) Tyranny requires yr fear & yr silence & yr compliance. Democracy requires yr courage. " - JBP

The root that tears apart your foundation begins as a seed of distrust, hate, and blame. The seed that grew into a dictatorship in Europe didn’t arrive overnight. It started with everyday Germans mad about inflation and looking for someone to blame.

@govpritzker.illinois.gov is using his "state of the state" speech today to bring the fight straight to Trump/Musk/MAGA. "My oath is to the Constitution of our state and of our country. We don’t have kings in America – and I don’t intend to bend the knee to one."

It's so disappointing to have aldermen vote against this based on "equity concerns." Poor and POC Chicagoans get injured and killed by drivers at disproportionately high rates, and this measure would have saved many of their lives.

They screwed this all up.

Want to go visit the national parks this year? Sorry. The reservation system is shut down, EMT personnel are gone, so don't get hurt or lost. No one can clean the bathrooms or cabins, so they'll be closed. Rangers are fired. www.sfchronicle.com/bayarea/arti...

This commission statement refers to people with Autism, ADHD, asthma, auto-immune disease, and chronic illness as a “dire threat to the American people and our way of life”. This is a manifesto against disability. This is the language of eugenics.

Favorite paragraph from this:

Measles high infection rate is the reason we have not yet been able to eradicate it. That rate means you need a very high vaccination rate to prevent outbreaks. It is possible, but not with current levels of institutional distrust.

First Trump take egg. Then crash plane(s). Now, Doge cancel summer cowboy vacation? Concerning. Very not yee-haw. Where wear cosplay America horse man hat now?
