If you think any of this anti-DEI backlash is about "merit," just keep in mind that they fired a FOUR-star general (who happens to be black but never mind that), and they replaced him with a THREE-star general (who happens to be white but never mind that). You know what this is.

a little thing you can do: comment against a regulation requiring trans people to misgender themselves on their passports. the regulation, and an easy button to click and make your comment: www.federalregister.gov/documents/20...

Saw the Post Office pop up on my feed because reasons, including some people asking "why the Post Office?" Well, for starters, USPS employees are 23% Black... and on that note, I'm surprised this webpage hasn't been taken down yet! about.usps.com/who/profile/...

Wake up, babe, new anatomy just dropped

Final #Jeopardy #BlindGuess Classical Music: What is the Flower Duet?

Roger's making me really nervous with his all-in DD wagers AND the handful of spelling/pronunciation rulings. But getting them right is why he's one of the best! #Jeopardy #JIT

I SHOULD know the order of zodiac signs because of Weird Al's song "Your Horoscope For Today", but alas 😔 #Jeopardy

Very interesting to have Bible and astrology categories in the same board #Jeopardy

Can you keep a secret? A new season of Game Changer is coming to Dropout this spring 🤫

ATTENTION #JEOPARDY and #Wheel fans in #Denver: The shows will be on CW Channel 2 tonight instead of FOX 31 due to basketball coverage. Same times, though!

Looking forward to seeing the return of formidable 2022 TOC alum Jackie Kelly battle a stacked lineup of @rgoslow.bsky.social and Troy Meyer in tonight’s #JeopardyInvitationalTournament #JIT quarterfinal! #Jeopardy

Someone please explain why people are so bent out of shape over #Jeopardy shortening the name of the Invitational Tournament to #JIT I know it rhymes with a certain word for 💩 but am I missing something else?

I made a little Joe Wilkinson puppet and then I recreated the best Taskmaster moment. @alexhorne.bsky.social #Taskmaster

It is very very nice to be alive at the same time as Guy Montgomery's Guy Mont Spelling Bee www.youtube.com/watch?v=D2C7...

If Q-Tips are not meant for ears, why do they have two ends? The same number as ears that we have?

Thank you @sanders.senate.gov for being a voice of reason and sanity in a country that's under the thrall of heartlessness and chaos. youtu.be/rKBM2kS6B8o?...

It's not Oracle of Bacon official, but I have a #BaconNumber of 3. I was in an audio play called "The Tragicall Historie of Plan the IXth", a Shakespearean parody of "Plan 9 From Outer Space," with Dana Gould...

“See this all this snow?” “Yeah” “I’m gonna take some and shape it like a man” “So, like, with arms and legs and-“ “No no no dude, like an MAN” “So, like, umm…” “Three balls stacked on top of each other!” “Oh, of course! That’s exactly what men look like!”

I love Wikipedia so damn much

#Jeopardy! star Hannah Wilson inspired to compete by legendary trans winner Amy Schneider

if you are a jeopardy viewer and mad that neilesh won the tournament of champions to the point where you're complaining online, contemplate why you watch the show, and then reconsider your life choices and your personal beliefs. it's okay to regret bad opinions and become a better person. #jeopardy

English version of "O Canada": patriot love for the True North French version: better believe we're decked in flowers and know how to carry a sword

If Bobby Brainworm wants me to stop using my meds, he'll have to personally come and take them.

Neilesh Vinjamuri swagger fan club

lemme get this straight you're cool with senslessly changing the name/identity of a whole ass body of water that's had the same name for over 470 years, but someone being trans and changing their name and pronouns to better fit themselves and be happy doesn't make sense to you?

At least they warn you of what‘s to come.
