Even using ranked choice, you were fifth place, Riley.

#enshittification #youtube a full 1/3 of my Shorts feed is ads. Two shorts with genuine content, then one ad. Lather, rinse, repeat. The only thing making it even vaguely palatable is that I can keep scrolling past them.

And in further enshittification: Google News has removed their Fact Check section.

It's not antisemitic to point out that the current Israeli government just can't keep its military in its goddamn pants. I guess they don't have enough war on their hands that they're going to pick a fight with Iran now.

Trump wants us to lose faith in the justice system by undermining it with pardons, even while denying others due process. But wrong is still wrong, and we must continue to fight him.

It occurs to me that the idiom "Christ on a cracker" should - for Catholics - be "Christ *IS* a cracker".

“Pro-life.”

Gearbox Chief Randy Pitchford can suck my left nut and take his "If you *REALLY* loved me..." bullshit straight back to his home under a bridge.

Call your senators. This bill is heading to them next and they can stop it if the people speak out. (202) 224-3121

But her necklace.

For those that remember Fraggle Rock, to the time of Beck's "Loser"... "I'm a Doozer, baby, so I'm gonna build things..."

Nothing says “land of the free” like interrogating citizens over their podcast playlists at the border. www.usermag.co/p/hasan-pike...

Respect new names for popes but throw tantrums over pronouns for neighbors. Got it.

The shoe’s on the other FAFOOT.

Of course - 1:30 in the afternoon, I'm fighting to keep my eyes open at my desk, but 11:30 pm rolls around and now I can't fall asleep.

Dear Dinocrats like Carville and Wasserman-Schulz: You twats have had the reins for decades now and LOOK WHERE WE ARE. You're almost as complicit in your ineptitude as the MAGA morons are with their Dump worship. Let's try something DIFFERENT. youtu.be/-XTBjK16gyE?...

Tried something new - joined a gym and had my first workout today. Did 20 minutes / 4 miles on the recumbent bike (lvl 10 resistance), 30 reps on the chest press @40#, then half an hour in the pool.

Vanity, vanity, all is vanity.

I read this quote from "The Rest Is Death" by James Oswald - "Undocumented, she’d face the horrors of the immigration services. The hostile environment. As if treating people already here like they were vermin would stop desperate others from coming." Start reading this book for free: a.co/6gDAQmI

Just sent out my first custom designed chonk D20 design (with blank insert for shell mold options) to get masters printed.

It really needs to become a social norm to NOT use your mobile device at full volume in public environments. No FaceTime, no speakerphone, no Netflix, no YouTube. Use fucking earbuds people.

If Francis' spirit wants to do one final, monumental act of good for humanity, he could do one of two things - take Trump with him at the funeral, or possess the fuck out of him.

Never give her a goddamned cent

Fuck Rowling, fuck Harry Potter and fuck all you that still support this piece of shit

Space adventure and exploration should be for the benefit of all humankind, not the whimsy of a few.

Having revisited Babylon 5 during the pandemic, I thought I would try revisiting Stargate SG-1. Turns out my tolerance for suspension of disbelief has lowered, since I can't watch it any more thanks to the fact that every alien culture speaks English with no explanation.
