I am watching this show for the first time right now and it’s depressingly prescient

food $400 data $60 rent $2200 rare owls $6,600 utility $300 someone who is good at the economy please help me budget this. my family is dying

I like this headline juxtaposed with this picture of him shitting in the woods

Nice story about a great camp near Duluth founded for kids with HIV is for sale. Because there aren't enough kids who need it anymore. www.startribune.com/closure-of-n...

Urine drug screens are some of the most inaccurate tests in medicine, that even healthcare professionals frequently misinterpret or just don’t understand. Yet we let nonmedical/nonscientific people in politics and law enforcement use them to punish people and even take children from their mothers.

🫡 It's pissing rain in NYC and 46°F/8°C. These folks would've been standing for hours to get into position to sit down on Fifth Avenue. Intrepid, indefatigable and soaking wet videographer @taliajane.bsky.social kept her gear dry for hours. If you want to send her holiday love $, links in her bio.

The guys who invented York Peppermint Patties sitting pretty because they convinced us to buy them individually wrapped

Thomas fans assembling is bringing me so much joy

This is also when we all became infatuated with Gregorian Chants. The possession. The red eyes. The chants. Enigma.

yeah, I knew this was a big ship, but I still was like "wh....at" when I watched their first scene together at least the answer to the question "what did they THINK they were doing" is very readily available. this. the actors thought they were doing exactly this. thanks, guys.

Ran across another friend who didn't get Paxlovid bc it was hundreds of dollars so here's this link again. You have to have a prescription to enroll and will need to educate the pharmacist but it works. No one should pay hundreds of dollars for Paxlovid! Privatization sucks! wapo.st/47hF7aO

I'd been seeing various versions of this story going through my feed all day and I hadn't had the time to actually read it. Take five minutes (or maybe two or three if you're not being distracted by other stuff). It's worth it.

We sit On the In-Universe Dates of DS9's "Past Tense" and one year out from the 30th anniversary of DS9's "Past Tense" (oof), and this would've been a great year to get @roberthewittwolfe.bsky.social Avery Brooks, Siddig el Faddil, & Terry Farrell on a Dragon Con stage to reflect on these episodes.

*stands in the timeline’s door, seductively* I’ve got everything I need to make caipirinhas back at my place. *wiggles eyebrows* *Bosolnaro supporter approaches* Not you.

I wrote about why canceling The Acolyte was a shortsighted move for Star Wars, alienating new fans and signalling that the franchise isn't interested in innovation. www.fansplaining.com/articles/the...

Sometimes--especially in an election year--you can start to feel powerless. That's when it's time to watch Farscape. @readingtheend.bsky.social on finding inspiration and making one plan at a time. reactormag.com/watching-far...

I debated whether to post my thoughts on Neil Gaiman & something involving him that I experienced 5 years ago--a professional experience that infuriated me (nothing like recent allegations). But I thought... power differentials are a thing. So I wrote this. burner-account.ghost.io/a-burn-it-do...

If you hear people complaining about how Walz allowed protesters to take down a statute of Columbus, remember that Columbus makes Hannibal Lecter look like Mr. Rogers: www.vox.com/2014/10/13/6...
