Everyone needs to read Lincolns speech The Perpetuation of our Political Institutions and reflect on how nothing changes. They have always been the biggest threat to our democracy.

THERE IS NO SUCH THING AS A “TRADE DEFICIT”—IT’S JUST CALLED “BUYING THINGS.” YOU DO NOT HAVE A TRADE DEFICIT WITH YOUR DENTIST JUST BECAUSE HE NEVER BUYS ANYTHING FROM YOU.

Narrator: "It did not make them rich."

I love a good floppy leaf. The floppier, the better, am I right??

One of these days we're gonna have to reckon with the fact that "money that I spend which does not directly benefit me is a waste" is a popular sentiment. I think we should state plainly that this is selfish on its face. And stupid when you have awareness which extends beyond your nose.

TikTok users aren’t actually stupid. Many have noticed the U.S. has failed to meaningfully regulate Elon and Zuckerberg’s loathsome social media platforms. I suspect many think U.S. lawmakers look like shady hypocrites when they rail against Chinese social media but let US companies go feral.

Dear LA residents: a reminder. When traffic lights are out, an intersection should be treated as a four-way stop, not as a venue for expression of psychosexual insecurities. Thank you.

I made some frankly preposterously good looking spaghetti for the kids. Fresh parm, homemade meatballs, fresh chopped basil. Restaurant looking stuff. My 6 year old: Dad can I say heck? Me: sure buddy: My 6 year old: This spaghetti looks good as fuck.

the feminine urge to live out the rest of my days in a spooky coastal town with my cat, drinking tea, reading books, casting spells. maybe terrorize a few tourists now and then.

For those contemplating a detox or cleanse in the new year, here’s a toxicologist’s explanation of how they work: They don’t

I don't think we are supposed to individually prepare ourselves 3x meals a day every day for our whole lives I think we're supposed to have community and sharing

Elon Musk: Why isn’t there enough water in California? Grok (burning through an entire lake to generate an answer): Wokeness

we've introduced spray bottles for misbehaving kittens and the only thing that's changed is that now my cat is constantly soaked while he's committing crimes

My report from Los Angeles: this sux lol

Anyone have any good book site recommendations as an alternative to goodreads, that has a nice UI but doesn't use AI? This Shelfari vet is tired

I hate the audacity of apps on my computer. I clicked something and now outlook starts up on my computer, after I force closed it three times to shut up? You want my attention that bad? I'll find and uninstall the pests that scurry into my vision you fuck

Feels like such a flex to stroll out of Costco with only two items that I purposefully went in there for

Being anti-big business but pro capitalism in America is exhausting. It's like being a fan of cars, because they do move people fast, but as soon as you try to regulate them for safety reasons, everyone looks at you crazy because 'people should just be more responsible drivers'...

I love FDR, man. Trickle down economics is a tale as old as time

New #JWST image just dropped 🔭🐡🧪

"You're asking too much! I have a LIFE, you know!" I scream at this recipe that requires the butter to be softened in advance.

I’ve said it before and I’m sure I’ll say it a thousand times more: We are not a Christian nation. We are a nation where you are free to be a Christian. — Your religion guides you, not all of us. It’s as simple as that.

The United Healthcare CEO assassination reactions are so interesting. Structural violence is so much more insidious and far reaching whereas personal violence is the attention grabbing one. Of the two, one lead to many more deaths than the other, but did not pull the trigger himself.

Jack Dorsey leaving Bluesky is still so funny to me. His views on moderation are just...so off base. Everyone needs to watch that one It's Always Sunny episode where the gang gets rid of all rules at their bar because it 'inhibits freedom'

In the spirit of reduce, reuse, recycle, lets talk about string lights this holiday season! If the whole string does not light up when you plug it into an outlet, you can try replacing the fuses. They usually come with extra bulbs and fuses when bought for this purpose - just unplug before doing so

The made up fluoride controversy gives me a headache. One of the main tenants of the medical field is that the only difference between poison and medicine is the dosage. In small doses Tylenol is great for pain relief, but take too much and it damages your liver and can kill you.

Six decades later, Star Trek may still be the only franchise based on the ideas that diversity is strength, justice is the measure of civilization, bounty is to be shared, peace is worth the price, and all these things can be achieved. We need more shows that look ahead and find goodness.
