Hell yeah. Hold the line. This is what we need people to do. Slow things down, don’t comply in advance so the courts have time to stop them. It’s starting to work.

Many readings of Cassandra focus on the curse & ignore how & why it was cast: She refused to fuck a God who retaliated by using his power to cloud minds against her. Rather than a metaphor of society ignoring warnings, it's the powerful malicously supressing wisdom, particularly from women.

My first and definitely last time working with the Los Angeles Times. Editing out the most urgent point of an OpEd in the minutes before sending to press while then also assigning a title and image that suggest an argument entirely opposite to the author’s clear intent is pretty shitty.

Kamala Harris just arrived back in Los Angeles. She plans to distribute food to wildfire victims and meet with first responders. Governor Harris has a nice ring to it. Welcome home.

I love this so much! At the inauguration, Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson wore a distinctive collar adorned with cowrie shells, which are believed to offer protection from evil in African traditions. This choice mirrors the late Justice Ginsburg’s practice of using collars to convey a message.

It is truly wild that it is estimated that more than 20 million people died of Covid and the prevailing vibe is that the world overreacted. That is an astonishing toll! More people died of Covid in the US than in the Civil War. www.pbs.org/newshour/hea...

I think the fundamental disconnect with techbros is they assume it's still 2010 running on the high of The Social Network when everyone thought they were cool upstarts and not 2024 post-NFTs when we know they're just dipshit sociopaths with way too much money.

The richest man on the planet could probably solve child cancer himself using less money than he burned destroying Twitter. Instead, he used his influence to strip $190 million from the budget for pediatric cancer research. What a fucking asshole.

Germany’s neo-Nazi AfD party has a secret Facebook group for its leaders. They shared and laughed at a post one of them made with Anne Frank’s picture on a pizza box, saying Oven Fresh. Elon Musk just endorsed the AfD.

Having trouble finding the right gift for the introvert in your life? You can’t go wrong with… - 3-5 solid hours of blessed silence - a “get out of function free” card to be redeemed later - a coupon for a phone call to be made on our behalf - a text saying you’re not mad at us - a nice blanket

This is the most embarrassing thing I have read in a long time. Like. I’d call them babies except our children are forced to be stronger and more mature than these weak ass turds since god forbid we do anything about school shootings.

This is why I support DEI. The existing system operates to exclude women and minorities. Period.

When I had a violent stalker who would graphically describe how he would have me gang raped, puncture my organs and and break all my bones, I was told the police "couldn't do anything". Consider this a reminder that they absolutely ✨can✨ do something. They just don't care about YOU.

I'd think one of the more appealing aspects of having more money than you can spend in a thousands lifetimes is you don't have to pretend to respect someone as grotesque as Trump, but apparently not.

Update, UHC helpfully explained me that they approved “the site”—so, this hospital—to hypothetically perform MRIs for me, but they denied the actual MRI, and if I hadn’t called I would have been on the hook for the whole thing! Terrific system!

bluesky is better when it’s safer for trans people because we’re going to brighten your day as we keep thriving under encroaching fascism. if we can do it, so can you. the bigots have nothing to offer you except shitty op-eds about how you should meet literal nazis in the middle.

As we gawk at the $250M Musk spent elect Trump, take a guess how long it took him to “earn” it back in the market? It took just 15 minutes. I'm not kidding... 15 minutes. According to Bloomberg, his net worth soared by $8B just today. That’s billionaire math for you—and it’s all of our problem.

It takes a very cold heart to think that somehow, a person who is alive but constantly wishes they were dead is an acceptable outcome.

All jokes aside it's really fucked up to see so many people on here celebrating murder. No one here is the judge of who deserves to live or die. That's the job of the AI algorithm the insurance company designed to maximise profits on your health and no one else
