This is me with my Artemis scarf. (And then I kicked her off because I was trying to work.) I do have 3 cats. I swear. Artemis just likes pics better.

The U.S. government has put up a submission form for reporting schools who teach kids about “DEI.” It accepts file uploads. Internet, you know what to do enddei.ed.gov

Artemis thinks I need to stop doomscrolling and pet her.

This book shouldn't be banned 😂

Saw a post recommending typing "Kremlin Headquarters" into Google Maps. No lies detected.

No, but if you’re looking for one, I am aware of a guy you work with that was indicted four times and convicted of thirty-four felonies.

Heard this AM that DOGE wants to send checks up to $5k to each US household. How about rehire the people who y'all wrongfully fired. Put it back in key programs like Medicaid. I don't want your blood money.

I don't think anything 47 and the Muskrat are doing is meant to distract. The constant bombardment of one awful thing after another? That's meant to exhaust us.

MapQuest has given us power! Had to give @mishacollins.bsky.social some love. #destiel #spn gulfof.mapquest.com?name=Destiel

A point to consider.

Another cat and it's actually #caturday. Mulder decided he needed to be in the sink (bowls have since been cleaned. Poor Mulder.)

Allegory alert!

The removal of a transgender reference from the National Park Service’s Stonewall website wasn’t done by NPS staff. Elon, care to elaborate?

"assess the prevalence of and threat posed by the prescription of selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors, antipsychotics, mood stabilizers, stimulants, and weight-loss drugs" good time time become an antipsychiatry grifter in the US www.whitehouse.gov/presidential...

I know it's not caturday (but every day is caturday). Just interrupting some doomscrolling with a visit from Artemis.

looking back, AOL had it right. 30 hours of internet per month was the right amount.

Please stop telling people "pay attention!" when they share this very simple step of defiance. We all know there are bigger issues at stake and this is a small one many people go "I can do that!"

the endgame of Bluesky is a year-round Eve 6/Mountain Goats residency at the Mohegan Sun unless they don't have craps tables at the Mohegan Sun, in which case we're Vegas-bound

Wait. That's NOT the tune?

Where’s the crime here

Don't forget to include disabled people in your resistance. The more revolutionary you become, the more likely you'll join the disability community. To fight back and get out alive is almost always to become disabled in some way. Disabled people know how to adapt and fight continuously. You need us.

One might even say, a blitzkrieg

At least we have some pod racing to look forward to.

hey quick question does Goliath win in that story

I am so goddamn mad. A friend who’s been FISHING BODIES OUT OF THE POTOMAC appears to be in the Trump purges today.

The Year of Our Lord January 2025 is about to come to an end

If you are considering downloading DeepSeek, please read this first and share with others You don’t owner your data. They keep it even if you delete and worse ..

I love this time of year because people will post something super dramatic and vague like “Nooooooo” and I can’t tell if it’s about football or *gestures outside window* all of this.

We just had a wee earthquake here in Northern MA.

So how’s it going so far?

In the last week he twice did what looked to many like a Nazi salute while thanking voters for saving civilization, tweeted a bunch of Nazi puns, and told Germans at a far right rally that they should move beyond feeling bad about the whole Holocaust thing.

This is an interesting thread. And it's easy to say "But the US is not China". But in under a week, we're seeing the impact and it's not likely to end. Frankly, I live in the US and was born here, and I completely understand why people would stay away.

For those interested the World Health Organization is on 🦋. You can stay informed @who.int

On Monday, @sarahpinsker.bsky.social started a thread for people to add "music and art that brings hope and joy." Tonight's Radio Free Entropy tries to tap into that (but also some anger). Join us at 8pm ET on uncertain.fm. Music from Kacey Musgraves, The Clash, Ethel Cain, Body Count and more.
