Currently reading the Hugo-nominated SPECULATIVE WHITENESS: Science Fiction and the Alt-Right by Jordan S. Carroll and it is chilling. ā€œMy argument is that the alt-right seizes upon speculative genres to dictate who has the right to speculate in the first place.ā€

And I wouldn't trust RFK Jr's recollection about or representation of what he saw at Wassaic when he was in high school. As an adult, that motherfucker isn't qualified to say that the sky is blue, never-mind categorize neurotypes as a high schooler.

"I was telling a colleague that yours was the best cover of the research (among the several recent articles that others have written)" -- Juan Bouzat, email These #Hummingbirds Live In Colonies In Ecuadorā€™s Andes, Surprising Scientists #birding #EcuadoršŸ‡ŖšŸ‡Ø #SciCommšŸ§Ŗ www.forbes.com/sites/grrlsc...

I just ate half a ball of almond-coated port wine cheese spread with olive crackers, and I have NO REGERTS!

#Cocktail Hour, round one. Manhattan. The rye is Two James Catcherā€™s Rye (I LOVE the name!) from Detroit, a 100% rye thatā€™s nice and spicy (although so far better for mixing than for sipping). The label and bottle are GORGEOUS.

One President wildly exceeded his authority by forgiving some student loans; a different President barely scratched the surface of his authority by disappearing anyone he pleases without trial to a foreign gulag. Constitutional law is a serious intellectual enterprise.

This is HUGE yall

A teenage US citizen was among three boys who were out picking almonds in a village on the West Bank, when they were all shot and killed by Israeli soldiers. The IDF, nevertheless, insists the teens were "terrorists" that were "endangering civilians". www.nbcnews.com/news/world/i...

Hey, just a quiet reminder: itā€™s not true that people get more conservative as they age. *Populations* get more conservative as they age because poor and marginalized people die sooner. nymag.com/intelligence...

If El Salvador is claiming they are keeping innocent Americans in a gulag on their own authority, we need to launch total boycotts of US companies collaborating with El Salvador. Which can start with the companies using call centers in the country www.tdsgs.com/call-center-...

If youā€™re in LA and looking for something to do tomorrow, go see Blade Runner at the Academy Museum. It was truly one of the best film presentations Iā€™ve ever seen. The sound alone had my jaw on the ground.

Honestly the best take on Elon Musk I've seen in months, maybe years.

Exiling people beyond the protection of US law without due process is not only unconstitutional, it's a rejection of the entire American revolutionary project. Sending people "beyond Seas to be tried for pretended offences" is one of the grievances enumerated in the Declaration of Independence.

How about swing that tiny dick of yours around like you seem to like to do all the time?

Disabled people looking directly at the camera for several seconds because YEAH

RFK Jr. stunned FDA staff Friday with a 40-minute tirade featuring a disability slur, the ā€œdeep stateā€ conspiracy theory, and accusations that agency employees were becoming a ā€œsock puppetā€ for the industries they regulate.

I tried to see if I could schedule an appointment to get a REAL ID in Massachusetts for after I get back to the U.S. on April 20th, and naturally, thereā€™s nothing available. This will go great.

watching ENT and the ferengi episode comes on: šŸ«µšŸ¼

1. THIS THREAD! šŸ§µ 2. Godsdammit, now I have to get ā€œAmadeusā€ on 4K. *bends over* *lifts fancy coattails* *FART!*

There was so much music going on, I had to hop on the set šŸ„

Heard this from multiple sources now. Plenty of the contracts in the queue are for things required for basic operations like phones etc. Things will probably start to break soon.

The lesson: this is what bipartisanship with fascists gets you. Fascist do not care about bipartisanship. If you pursue it with them, they will make a fool of you. There is only defiance and opposition. Thatā€™s all any decent people want from their leaders anyway. Those who wonā€™t can gtfo.

My governor ladies and gentlemen.

šŸ§µ None of the humans with autism in our lives need curing & RFK & everyone like him can go to hell

Feels like Democrats should be running on a promise to imprison trump and his entire administration along with musk and the bribed conservatives on what was once the Supreme Court.

The right for autistic people with intellectual disabilities (and other disabled people) to live outside of institutions was only granted by the US Supreme Court in 1999.

This is great!!

Yā€™all are gonna wanna hear this one. šŸ“ŗ

Coolest Subaru I have ever seen

us government went from telling miners ā€œlearn to codeā€ to telling coders ā€œlearn to mineā€ in less than ten years
