In one of the greatest things on all the internet, the moby dick account that posts quotes from the novel now has a dedicated moby dick reply account that tells everyone the exact coordinates where the quote can be located in the book

it was less than 6 months ago a lady threw away her entire career to have an emotional affair with a man that looks like Krang from the ninja turtles

Reporters: Please stop calling things DEI that are not DEI. This is only cementing the propaganda being used to legitimize the dismantling of all types of initiatives that are not DEI as well as legitimize efforts to end civil rights enforcement. Be specific with your language. Be accurate.

i wish there were a better option to staying informed other than spiraling further into a black hole of despair

remember stuff like this when they tell you that diversity means a lowering of standards

In 1979, Jimmy Carter installed solar panels on the White House. In 1986, Ronald Reagan tore them down along w/Carter’s clean energy funding. This sums up the difference between the two men & political parties. Investing in solutions for the future vs canceling progress to score political points.

Cleopatra lived closer in time to 'yeet' being in the dictionary than to the construction of the Great Pyramid of Giza.

We went to a kid-friendly murder mystery tonight and someone brought their baby. 13yo was keeping notes on who he thought the murderer was, and at the bottom of the page it just said BABY, all caps, huge letters, circled and underlined.

What are we DOING here? We're just meant to sit and act like this insane plagiarism and climate threat that requires more money than anything has ever cost is worth it? Are we meant to pretend that ChatGPT is worth this aimless, meaningless destruction of capital and our environment? For what?

After nearly three decades, a Minnesota summer camp for kids with HIV/AIDS is closing and up for sale... because retroviral drugs are so effective that there aren't enough campers. Science works, y'all. www.startribune.com/closure-of-n...

The owner of the LA Times has asked for an alternative story from the norovirus's perspective

Musk could fund a year of the federal SNAP program (food stamps) that benefits 41 million Americans and still have $370 billion dollars left over. Put another way, Musk’s net worth has grown more since the election than the annual budget of the entire SNAP program. www.barrons.com/articles/elo...

Lying is so awesome. Crafting reality is usually the provenance of gods and kings, but with one word, I can be the most interesting person at a party, the highest ranking person at a meeting or the least qualified person currently operating heavy machinery.

Me, a public health person, just sitting over here reflecting on the fact that the US has experienced a 7% increase in infant mortality post-Dobbs. Like, do you realize what that says about this society from an ethical perspective? That we made policy choices that caused this? #PHEthx

making america great for white men again

If you're wondering how Paxton learned about this abortion: "The biological father, upon returning to the residence in Collin County, discovered the two above-referenced medications"

I published the final installment of my series Breaking Point, about Louisiana's crushing insurance crisis. Everyone agrees on one thing: If Louisiana and other risk-prone places are going to remain livable, and insurable, we need to invest in stronger homes. 🧵 www.nola.com/news/busines...

my hottest take is that the first caveperson to start singing was probably killed immediately

One of my fave Christmas movies

And the S&P500 went up about 65% under the notoriously anti-business Biden administration…

"i wouldn't wish that on my worst enemy" i would. that's the point of having a worst enemy. grow up and hate people like an adult

sorry ok, i fully do not believe in spreading bad faith headers or op eds but like sd;fknasdfkla BUT LIKE BUT LIKE JAIL FOR EVERYONE INVOLVED IN PUBLISHING THIS FOR ONE MILLION YEARS ONE HUNDRED MILLION YEARS JAIL

All the other scientists are yelling at me because I’m wearing the Doomsday Clock like Flavor Flav

Ordered poached eggs and they took them off some other guy’s plate.

A new AP poll shows that few Americans overall approve of Pete Hegseth, Trump’s choice to lead the Department of Defense, or Tulsi Gabbard, his pick for intelligence chief, although a substantial share doesn’t know who those figures are. We are so f’ed. apnews.com/article/trum...

Fetterman's sharp rightward turn will be retconned as reflecting how only centrist Dems can win in a swing state like PA, but this is emphatically not how he was during the primary or the general. His Sinema arc will end the same way: incapable of winning the primary despite being the incumbent.

Mathematicians get their kicks on 8.1240384.

They're going to end up changing domestic terrorism laws to protect these business people and giving police EVEN MORE money. Then turn around and find any and every excuse to keep letting masses of the rest of us die.

The missing link is that those sorts of assassinations seek to entrench existing power structures rather than upend them

I’ve been holding this in but… seems remiss not to recall the assassination of the abortion doctors? The bombing of clinics? Why act as if this is without that context?

the right has more money but imo, more importantly, they have more imagination than the center left and they have more of a drive to take risks. the right *tries* shit. a lot of it dies and is dumb. the center left doesnt try jack and then when it does and it is stupid and it fails.

Small presses: now would be a really, really good time to condemn GenAI with your whole chest And tell everyone as loudly as possible why you won't be shitting on your own authors (and the environment, and the human imagination, and everyone whose IP has been stolen to feed the parrots) like this

I know that some of you either have access to resources (MONEY) or know people who do. I am asking you to PLEASE insist that those people fund abortion access. GIVE MONEY TO ABORTION FUNDS. I've been a broken record on this for years. The funds exist; THEY NEED TO BE RESOURCED.

Trump announces that billionaires no longer have to comply with environmental regulations

the answer to "why don't americans have..." and it's something so simple like national healthcare or feeding kids at school the answer is "bc Black people would also have it"

Tomorrow morning we’ll be launching my campaign to move New Orleans in a new direction! I am grateful for the overwhelming support and encouragement you’ve given me. You helped me make this decision. More to come in the morning!💪

Why are Republicans so afraid of actual journalism?

As they say, Brett Favre most definitely did not mean to hurt Mark Gastineau. He is concerned about the welfare of everyone. Google “Brett Favre welfare” to learn more.

U.S. Sen. Angus King, I-Maine, unveiled a bill on Tuesday that would study the impact of “repetitive low-level blast injuries” on the military and how they could impact brain health. www.stripes.com/theaters/us/...

Remember this. And tell other people. Don’t trust cops applies to not believing they will give you lots of money for information.

just made myself sad thinking about a cyclops struggling to flirt with the cutie across the room
