Today I’m thinking about Macropinna microstoma—the fish with a see-through head. All brain, no filter. Just floating through pressure and poison, watching everything. May we all be so transparent and unbothered. #DeepSeaMood

Things not to ask the internet, no. 14639954: What happens if you take a couple of ibuprofen along with a glass of wine? (Not quite as alarmist as the responses for "what happens if you wash down half a bag of the blackest of black licorice with grapefruit juice," but close!)

Why has corrupt businessman Donald Trump somehow convinced America's working class that he's their candidate? We asked two of the past three Democratic presidential nominees attending a billionaire's wedding in the Hamptons on the day of nationwide protests.

I finally figured out what this reminds me of. 1980s. 4th of July parade in a small midwestern suburb. There with the fam bc my dad, the band director, will be marching with his jr high band. The American Legion rolls past in their WWII-surplus tank. SMH. (Miss you dad!)

Despite Texas' tough talk on immigration, its lawmakers have refused to mandate that private businesses check employment authorization. Why? Because they know “if you got serious about applying [E-Verify], you would create even worse problems” with labor shortages, a former GOP state lawmaker said.

I get so tired of all the ways pundits talk around Democrats’ real problem, which is so obvious that an entire industry exists to obfuscate it. They cannot describe, let alone attack, the real sources of injustice in this country because to do so would indict themselves and their donors.

Did you ask for a bird fact? No, but you're getting one whether you like it or not. 🪶 (Actually, Sarah R. asked for this bird fact. The rest of you can thank her.)

New dream: having a vivarium/terrarium that works like this beauty instead of the sad-sack terraria I've sworn off making because it feels like I'm a plant torturer.

One thing I appreciate spending far too much time watching baby birds is that when they decide it's time to sleep they simply do it. I admire this. 🐣 🪶

Things keep banging into my windows and walls. Is it hail? Colliding birds? Raccoons in the attic again? An ill omen? Nope. Cicadas.

Centrism seems to be the philosophy that we should do as much good as possible without changing the existing power structure. Turns out that means "not much." A report from Welcomefest 2025. www.hamiltonnolan.com/p/what-is-ce...

American Science and Surplus (one of the world's best stores, IMO) is doing a fundraiser to get it through a rough patch. (And if you need any strange tools or odds and ends, lab equipment, or general science/education-themed weirdness, check out their website: sciplus.com)

It’s extremely hard to find common cause between people whose primary policy worry is people who don’t need to suffer and people whose primary policy worry is people who don’t deserve to thrive.

Radical serving of Friday fish from the 1st colour publication on fish (1754). As the top specimen (with smiling sun) indicates, some of the offerings in the book lean perhaps a little too heavily on the imagination than today's ichthyologists may allow: https://t.co/NlpbLs4X5

I've now seen this enough times that I've gamed out a big finish in which Katie M bears Elon's 57th child, Stephen turns on revanchist white South African billionaires and sends them all to the El Salvadoran gulag, then dies in a self-driving Tesla fire. Doesn't fix anything, but I feel better.
