These dudes are the equivalent of a guy who deafeningly revs his motorcycle when driving down a residential street. They think they look cool and badass, when really everyone just fucking hates them.

Would be amazing to get a single piece of media on this topic centered on the right's firehose of bigotry and misinformation rather than "the trans rights movement's shortcomings" www.nytimes.com/2025/06/17/o...

New study on the effects of LLM use: Quote: "LLM users also struggled to accurately quote their own work. […] Over four months, LLM users consistently underperformed at neural, linguistic, and behavioral levels."

Why did I read this meme in Mitch Hedberg voice?

This is why disabled people have been begging you to mask up for years. This is why we’ve said that mask bans pose a threat to our survival. This is why we don’t want folks to say ICE agents are “wearing masks”. Society is being conditioned to see masking as “bad”. It will kill us.

do US liberals go into hibernation during democrat administrations or something. the ferguson protests happened under obama & last year under biden we saw police attacking student gaza protestors all the time

It says a lot about where we’re at in this country that a beloved voice actor was murdered by his homophobic neighbor and every headline is still running passive defense for his killer, doing everything not to call this hate crime what it was. These are scary times. RIP to Jonathan Joss.

IT IS JUNE. (happy #pride)

The latest Covid variant (razor blade throat) seems to have increased transmissibility resulting in more people ending up in hospital. Most healthcare systems haven’t adopted clean air standards or mandatory respirator use. Hospital acquired COVID has a 10% fatality rate My guide to avoiding it

Treating a new Covid strain like a crime and not a public health issue is deranged.

Democratic voters' complete refusal to demand even the bare minimum of their representatives (like even being alive) is a major reason why we have fascism in the US right now. (Also, how many of these bluewave numbskulls do I need to block/mute to stop seeing this dumb shit?)

Man what a fucking headline

Anyway

Like clockwork

People've made children do the learning "to live with covid", with pneumonia, and also with whooping cough, RSV, measles. Now it's turn "to learn to live" with TB and with H5N1 bird flu, mpox, dengue, yellow fever, hantavirus, Nipah, Marburg, and if giving the chance, with pneumonic plague.

Oh my god, can we please have a reverse Michael Jordan situation when #Shohei retires from baseball?

The science clearly shows that surrendering to 1-2 COVID infections a year is a big mistake—especially given what we can reasonably surmise now about living in a future world where science and health are completely devalued. Infection isn’t inevitable. #WearAnN95 and protect yourself and others.

"The group, which seeks...damages, argues that the public backlash prevented the company from pursuing "the aggressive, anti-consumer tactics that it would need to achieve" its earnings goals." do you have a moment to discuss the Good News of dialectical materialism? www.nbcnews.com/business/bus...

Now that I'm in my 40s, it's astounding how little I care what teens and 20-somethings think about me.

ICYMI: As kids keep getting sicker, media ignores scientific papers pointing to immune dysregulation and damage after COVID. Instead, parents are urged to “watch out” for unusual waves of RSV, flu, and more, while masks, clean air & COVID go unmentioned. www.thegauntlet.news/p/kids-keep-...

I feel like I'm going insane. What is happening?

I feel like I'm alone in this, but #Andor season 2 so far is...not great? Ep 3 and 6 picked up a bit, but man, most of this season is an absolute slog. The whole time I'm just waiting for SOMETHING to happen.

Man, this guy really fucking sucks.

I released a new album! And if there's one thing people want in 2025 it's dark concept album about topics like #chronicillness, #pandemics and other fun stuff. Give it a listen if you're able! It's a good time. linktr.ee/johnnymanc

I own thousands of dollars worth of art supplies. Let me tell you which ones are the best ⭐️ Part 1

every gender transition is a statement in favor of human possibility and freedom and i’m tired of hearing it talked about like it’s some kind of disease

Please stop saying N95 masks prevent facial recognition. First off, they don't. Second, this completely undermines the other more important reason we're wearing them and offers up the exact reasoning anti-maskers want to use as an excuse for banning them.

We must normalize masks as a public health tool before it’s too late. If you care about social justice, disability rights, fighting fascism or your health… you should be wearing a mask. Ideally an N95 or better. The more of us wearing them, the harder they will be to ban.

Please call your electeds. The official vote for this will happen later this week. We need to stop this horrible charge that will put public health under greater threat and lead to more targeting of protestors. Take action:

I'm shocked. Just SHOCKED.

Don't think! Don't learn! Don't use your brain in any capacity! Isn't it great you don't have to do that stuff anymore? Hard to believe so many people don't see the underlying fascism of genAI.

awful awful news

Always reblog. Happy Easter!
