Despite what has been said, I don't think we're living in the darkest timeline, but we are DEFINITELY living in the stupidest one.

People who don't write newsletters or are new to it might not realize that Substack's monetization model is different from its competitors like Ghost and Beehiiv. Substack takes 10% of your earnings. That's primarily how they make the money they give to right-wing authors. You are funding them.

Just discovered my partner had never come across Ea-Nasir memes before and let me tell you, the rabbit hole I just sent him on... I love it when someone discovers something I love for the first time. It's THE BEST.

Happy 10th birthday to the Ea-Nasir complaint tablet meme! A glorious decade of memes, mashups, merchandise, erotic fanfic, real-life copper fraud, and pilgrimages to the British Museum. Thread 🧵:

Between this and the spotlight currently on health insurance CEOs, I am reminded of a book from a few years back "the figures 'who, by giving orders, use paper or a phone or a computer to kill, instead of a gun.'"

Calling yourself a king doesn’t make you a king. Accepting the kingly crown offered thrice to you on the Lupercal by your loyal friend makes you a king.

Yup. Still remember reading the story about Patrick Roy ripping a door off its hinges to get at his wife. Literally got into hockey because I loved watching Roy. Athletes are human, as flawed as the rest of us. We can accomplish great things and still suck.

This I'm someone who "kept doing the work" when my paycheck got cut in half for over a year due to university bullshittery. Idk how I made it work. I'm in so much debt it's scary. Do not recommend!!! Emotional support and affirmation are great, but they simply don't pay the bills.

It is important for those outside the US to keep in mind that while the American gov't expunges large portions of their nation's own history, the US is also home to vast quantities of world cultural heritage and records thereof, and will, in time, seek to destroy these as well.

The Harlem Hellfighters are a legendary fighting force, worthy of a great many posts. This one from @georgy-k-zhukov.bsky.social tries to track down the truth behind a story that the regiments band might have been tricked into going to the front lines.

Target took the fast fashion idea way too far and the quality of their clothes and knickknacks has plummeted. Even if you need to shop there for essentials it is so much easier to skip the impulse buys. No one wants racism + a crappy product.

In an episode of The Pitt, one of the docs asks an autistic patient how much pain he was in on a scale from 1 to 10 and his response was to ask if 10 was taking into account all of human history or just the most pain he ever experienced. I felt so seen. Like an 8 out of 10.

Why do we value people based on their addiction? In all of the pictures, I'm still David. I have the same potential. You see an addict on the street and say I'm not "one of those addicts" I hear that would have treated me poorly. #ActuallyAutistic #Recovery #MentalHealth #neurodivergent

Found out that the English refer to any meal served at a wedding as a "wedding breakfast" and for some reason this, specifically, has broken me. I think it's a combination of their collective insistence that any American-specific word usage is inherently wrong combined with my devotion to breakfast.
