It's the time of year where I tell UK folks that this little handheld/desktop fan may be the best £12 you spend this month: www.johnlewis.com/john-lewis-h... Runs for 8+ hours on the lowest setting (usually enough tbh), 3 speed settings, pretty quiet, USB C charging, handle folds to use on tabletop

every 'moderate' journalist who spent the last half a decade mainstreaming anti-trans rhetoric should never be allowed to forget that there is blood on their hands

We should be able to buy adderall, testosterone & estrogen OTC at Walmart while buying a gun should require 6-12 months of intensive therapy beforehand and monthly reapproval from your psychiatrist

why did we let anyone other than the engineers of the noble honda civic even attempt building for space flight www.theverge.com/news/689183/...

please ditch Wordle. It's not worth this shit

american watching british panel shows: it’s just funnier. and more human. they know how to laugh at themselves brit watching british panel shows: he’s a terf. everyone here went to cambridge, he’s married to the producer. he should be in jail for tax evasion. the wrong guy on 8 out of 10 cats died

*goes to bed at 2 am without having done any exercise in two days* "why do I feel so destroyed??? Why am I so tiredsleepy"

if i can be y’all’s dad for a second: one of the most important things I’ve learned is that acquiring a skill is literally uncomfortable that awful moment where you feel confused and stupid and embarrassed? it means you’re about to learn something. and it’s *mandatory* if you want to get better

My partner & I were trying to ID a bird we heard while walking and the guy who had stopped his car to let us pass got out and was like "it's a frog, actually. Cope's Gray. I do frog surveys... Sorry" And then got in his car without a word and drove off. Absolute king

I know this doesn't apply to all instances, but I do love a hard stance against scraping for LLMs from an official channel.

I'm so enthusiastic and interested and in love with everything! Did escitalopram also just. Sort of compress my emotional spectrum? Yes, I get anxious and wound up way more but I also. DEEPLY ENJOY stuff again!

I think enough time has passed that I can write "no kings except short kings"

Apparently, playing BattleKart (legally distinct IRL MarioKart with AR enhanced bumper cars ina warehouse) means I will periodically laugh maniacally like a cartoon villain

recalling when I worked at the flight school and a wayward turtle walked onto the runway and a pilot said so, then a guy in a golf cart went out there, moved the turtle, and radioed "the turtle has been revectored", a phrase that has been seared into my brain for life

In Wien wurde eine Person festgenommen, die mutmaßlich gestohlene Fahrräder verkaufen wollte und die Polizei hat Fotos veröffentlicht von den Rädern. Falls also wer in Wien ein Rad vermisst: vielleicht ist es hier? wien.orf.at/stories/3309... #Wien

This is not actually a subtweet of anything specific right now, but I do want to make a plea to everyone to a) attribute and link to the source of any information you're sharing b) only share posts that do so. This isn't (just) about credit, it's about creating a chain of custody for information.

Let's play "is my intercom broken or do deliverers simply not say anything, ever"

I've got a digital outside thermometer for the first time, after having had an analogue one for most of my life, and. This thing shows a different temperature every few minutes. WTF.

Please enjoy this photo of our new kitten Bobby and our mostly confused dog Ralph

I have finally seen #Sinners and. It's one of the damn best movies I've seen in my entire life. Instant classic. Awesome. Not one dull moment. I need the soundtrack injected directly into my veins. (this isn't from the soundtrack iirc, but the twins' names...) www.youtube.com/watch?v=9Ri7...

i don't know why i find the title so funny

There's a thread on AskReddit asking, "People who have had to drain their life’s savings on a single event, what happened?" 99% of the answers are depressing American stories about medical bills, 1% is an Australian who found a wombat burrowing under their house.

Today marks nine years since Jo Cox was assassinated by a far-right extremist, a terrible loss to those who knew and loved her and to politics. Zero lessons were learned though and the far-right continues to be pandered to. With more political assassinations in the US it all feels too familiar.

Don’t lose hope, here’s Lego Pride Parade in Hobbiton

#MurderbotApple it's dawning on me that the creators of this show have not read the books.

Red pandas from last week for your timeline #RedPanda (I got to feed one of them who is not pictured; the other ones weren't interested in grapes/apple pieces on a stick. We were informed they're all female. That in combination with the electrified fence made me think of Jurassic Park)
