Worst. Episode. EVER.

I mean, is it really a family community concert if the opening band doesn’t sing a song called “Big Pussy Energy”? She just really loves cats! She could stay home and pet her cat all day! Haven’t seen her live for almost 20 years but Abbe May hasn’t changed and she’s the best 😆

CISA is down 167 employees so far (I understand more to go) and reportedly NIST is about to be set on fire. NIST operate National Vulnerability Database and lots of other things. https://www.wired.com/story/the-national-institute-of-standards-and-technology-braces-for-mass-firings/

Weird article. At no point does it deploy the phrase “because you’ll look like a colossal throbber”

What’s happening with the US government reminds me of this story (great book btw): Libertarians took over a town in NH in 2004 and gutted its services, cut taxes, etc. Less than 8 yrs later things had gotten so bad that black bears were breaking into homes and killing people for the first time ever.

🚨 Hey guys remember how I wrote a whole article about how P25 wants to use this to gut the queer internet? Yeah, the Dems are helping them marching it in the door. This is where the trans internet could very well die.

The fact that Wallace and Gromit: Vengeance Most Fowl isn’t nominated for best picture is just more evidence of how far we’ve fallen as a society

Plus! Canadians don't want to absorb you, my god. Your country is at freak levels of messy right now. Get your house together, and then keep being a separate country.

The real horror is seeing no one do anything.

#BREAKING Peter Dutton launches ‘Not Welcome To Country’. This policy will apply to all Australians, apart those working (directly or indirectly) to further the financial interests of Gina Rinehart. #auspol #election2025 #ausvotes2025

I'm going to business hell for this one

“What do you mean you’re autistic? You’re so good with people.” Yea, I’ve spent my entire life studying people, trying to build the perfect mask to fit in. My personality is a patchwork of traits I’ve picked up from others, things I thought were cool, things that made me seem normal. I’m exhausted🫠

They’re also forcing the incorrect name on non-US users and the fucking cowards have turned off community comments and check ins on the location so nobody can tell them to jam it up their ass.

The MurderBot has good points.

Too fucking right Not Guilty. Charges were ridiculous bullshit.

The what now...

> He also said his client has Autism Spectrum Disorder and was diagnosed with PTSD after witnessing a fatal car crash. Fuck you. You DO NOT get to blame neurodivergence for you being a piece of fucking shit. It’s not a get out of jail free card for assholes.

Inbox: CyberTruck outside a Tesla showroom in Brooklyn, NY vandalized with the words “Elon Must D*e” with a resistance triangle. The hit comes amid growing resentment toward Nazi billionaire Elon Musk, whose ‘DOGE’ group is cutting vital social services & unlawfully accessing confidential records.

Please enjoy this picture of my cat.

Won't somebody please think of the property council!

this came to me in a vision & I was compelled to make it into reality

As the expected Christian Nationalism EO came in, I’m seeing a bunch of “this isn’t real Christianity” noise in my mentions. Nope. Christian friends. 1/x 🧵 This is 💯 part of the history of Christianity, dating to Constantine, to the Holy Roman Empire, forced conversions, Inquisitions, +

The underlying problem with US national security at this point is actually really simple. If the entire US-led world order can be undone because ~120,000 people in a few states are unhappy about burger prices then there is very little stability for any coherent natsec policy

My number 1 request for Windows or PowerToys: Hide the mouse cursor when I'm typing anywhere, like I'm sure you used to. This is a real problem for us in #BigMouseGang @scott.hanselman.com @clintrutkas.bsky.social

if you’re in DevRel, posting on a platform owned by someone who is pretty openly right wing to the point of doing a N*zi salute at the Inauguration is actually not something you should be doing anymore continuing to Create Content on Twitter, at some point, is endorsement imo we’re past that point

A Neo-Nazi is a Nazi who equally loves fascism and The Matrix.
