I don’t know what sort of life the Red Cross thinks I live, but no, I didn’t have sex or inject drugs in the ten minutes between filling out the RapidPass and walking into the donation room. That’s a Bukowski story.

this is maybe trite at this point but it is in your interest to find ways to create things. basically everyone wants you to be consuming nonstop. making stuff, from cooking to photography or whatever, can help you feel more in control. doesn’t even have to be something you share with other people

About to be Jokerfied by this blandly tossed-off statement in a piece about how the lie machines will never stop lying. Why concede that AI is "useful" in writing term papers? What is the purpose of writing assignments in education? Is AI accomplishing that purpose? www.nytimes.com/2025/05/05/t...

I am unashamed to be shocked that the guy in charge of health in this country literally does not believe in germs. That is not a thing that usually happens even with the most uncharitable view of “baseline” America.

At this point I'm honestly just calling my reps and bluntly saying you're old between the two of us I'm the one more likely to survive an ecoli infection. Maybe do something about this.
