I get the fixation with Albert Einstein, Marie Curie, Charles Babbage etc, but whoever invented or discovered WD40 just doesn't get enough love.

I resisted this perfect thrift store sweater, but I DID try to go to this website (sadly it does not actually exist).

I keep trying to write something eloquent and just being tired. History matters. Philosophy matters. Languages and literature matter. Indigenous studies matter. Arts and humanities and social sciences matter. All of them. Signed, a physicist

A tall man lovingly carries an unruly spider plant past three chilly-looking policemen, who are awkwardly sharing one cup of tea.

You know, last year when I wrote a book about the moon turning into cheese, I didn't know that when it came out the most fantastical thing about it would be a functional US government

She kissed him in public, in private. He traced the outline of her cheek with his hand and then her breast while she played a video game and pretended to ignore him. She touched his beard while he drove, her hand on him cold, then hot, then against his lips, until there was no world beyond. - wip

I got an email this morning from a couple named Eric and Joanna Reuter who found a snake in their basement. They used one of my comics to help determine that it was a North American Racer and not a more common ratsnake. The photos are so, so cute

Sonar proudly declared about the project I opened that "this one is gonna be a hit". It has more confidence in a blank canvas than I do.

Should I get these for someone whose life I want to ruin

good morning from our nations capital where everything looks pretty normal but there are signs

It's interesting to see outside developers using Asana's API to give AI agents persistent memory. Tasks and projects turn out to be ideal data structures for decomposing work - they map naturally to how both humans and AI need to break down complex goals. 1/4 www.linkedin.com/posts/werner...

SOME RANDO AND THEIR GUITAR FUCKING CALLED ME AND MY GUITAR OUT! XD

Sushi fry.

Kitty Shall Never Starve

If a woman had 13 kids by four different men, used ketamine and spent all her time running a shadow presidency, I’m not sure our society would celebrate her.

I think the general internet argument view of “you have emotion about this event har har, you’re triggered, you have an emotional response to cruelty har har” has been a complete disaster for humanity both for the person being told that and for the person saying it

I saw a video of known alcoholic Pete Hegseth drinking multiple scotches in the middle of a televised presser and started laughing so hard I began coughing as I believe we're less than 2 weeks removed from him promising never to drink a single time as Secretary of Defense and nothing matters anymore

Today, we honor Frederick Douglass on his chosen birthday. 🎂 His 1855 autobiography MY BONDAGE AND MY FREEDOM is a powerful account of his journey from enslavement to freedom. Read it here ➡️ https://archive.org/details/mybondagemyfreed6062doug/ #Blackhistorymonth #LetReadersRead #InternetArchive

There was a van that said Schindler Elevator on it and @petersrin.com pointed out they missed the opportunity to make it Schindler's Lift. Reich-fully so if you ask me.

We don’t hear much about the West Pole, where Cowboy Santa lives. Probably because of all the people he’s shot

Curly parsley can suck my dick but Italian parsley? È così buono che mi cremo anch'io!

Well if we're calling it the Gulf of America because everything is made up and the points don't matter, the USA is now the Divided Scapes of Hell-vetica.

Moon.

The hunt is almost on...

And then they fucked right off.

Coming up on 4 years ago I cobbled this song together. Did a song a day challenge, read the news that day, and bam. Trans rights!

If I were a musician, I would compose ethereal, beautiful, music with the most murderous lyrics. I'd make a hit describing how I would break your kneecap in a very wispy and melodic voice. 💗

Hey my darlings, would you like to hear some jam exploits? Maybe learn to make your own? Of course you would. A 🧵

I never understood the musicians playing music while the Titanic sank. Now I do.

Look. If a ruler wants to be a chair, maybe he will sit the fuck down and shut the fuck up. This joke was brought to you by this chair in particular.

Inner space walk

Our United Airlines pilot made sure to emphasize *Mexico* when he said we'd be flying over the Gulf of *Mexico* today. It's the little things. Microdose hope.

Once I realized I was reading “ogre” as “orgy”, lord of the rings got way less interesting

Use the term “touch grass” to indicate that someone needs to seek out reality, use the term “touch moss” to indicate that they need to seek out ancient forest magic beyond their mortal comprehension.

Had to clamber over a barbed wire fence, rip my coat and trespass to get a photo of this folkloric monster pretending half-successfully to be a tree. I have no regrets.

Reading Jesus and John Wayne. I’m oddly comforted by the idea this plot to remake the US as an evangelical Christian nation was forged long ago. Harris didn’t lose to a baby bully pounding his wee fists but to decades of powerful lies skillfully seeded by hateful militaristic racist wealthy zealots

"My artstyle doesn't allow for fat characters" sorry about your skill issue I guess? hope you get better

Hopecore is finding out that I can grow a rose in my apartment. If I successfully grow a rose in my home, I'm either going to give it to my ancestors or I'm going to make a water or oil out of it. Or all of the above! That's my side quest for February. Maybe.

This Fast and The Furious reboot SUCKS EGGS.
