careful man, he might talk for a while at you

Talk to at least 1 stranger a day im not saying have full conversations, though you can and should sometimes. walking past someone with a cool outfit? Tell them! say good morning/afternoon/evening! small interactions will evolve over time and talking to strangers will be easier!

Someone complimented my college hockey jersey the other day and I could tell they were really trying to momentarily connect. We made light small talk and then parted ways when the crossing signal changed. :3

Ah man. Sport Science was so cool growing up, and the attempts to recreate it without John Brenkus weren't the same. RIP. Very sad.

If you're a transfeminine author who's trying to fundraise for basic needs, gender affirming care, or to leave the United States, either drop your link in the replies or DM me. I have a mutual aid plan that I'm gonna be working on this week.

this sucks man, I really enjoyed those sports science segments back in the day seeing that he passed from depression is all the more painful

He should have to answer for his actions, not get free PR for SpaceX. Ht @ryanlcooper.com

Fuck it. Trans folks need MATERIAL SUPPORT. @distributeaid.org is launching an HRT Harm Reduction Toolkit that provides 1 year of medical supplies needed to take injection-based HRT. We were planning to go live in January, but I'm not waiting. Fund the kits here: distributeaid.org/hrt-harm-red...

Tim for the win!

"Mr President, there are accusations on wall street that you're a major puss and you always back down. There is demonstrable evidence that people believe this so strongly they are moving hundreds of millions of dollars to that end, essentially an investment in your cowardice - any comment?"

And McKinsey is doing layoffs? *Chefs kiss*

the walls are closing in, elon. two hundred pending court cases, elon

“MAHA is, above all things, the apotheosis of a puritanical American tendency to blame the ill for their illness, the poor for their poverty.” This is excellent writing on some terrible policy.

Alright time to cast aspersions: Congress could have stopped the IEEPA tariffs whenever they wanted by revoking the national emergencies that enabled the tariffs but they didn't because they're not an independent branch anymore. That fundamental problem is still with us.

i’m here you fuckaas bitch

Like I said a while ago they really got the smoking bans and seatbelts in under the wire because that shit would not happen now.

👎 for Vice President J.D. Vance from Houston, TX “He wears eyeliner and bangs couches”

👎 for Sen. Ted Cruz from Houston, TX

On Earth 2.0, folks on the other side of the aisle would say loud and clear that if "everyone involved in the deal understand the payment as the price of merger approval" then it is a bribe, and all of those people should expect to go to prison if it goes ahead in the next administration

these numbers are a decent indication that the whole "the left is ostracizing young men" thing is, if not entirely fictional, at least very overblown

Elon Musk got fired from DOGE, surprising no one, after achieving almost nothing he said he set out to do. Except set fire to everything. https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/cz9y4exj822o

A man facing homelessness told me: “I was brought to Austin by the state. I know no one here.” He was paroled to a halfway house run by a private prison corp, Core Civic Only 8% of residents there are from ATX. TX releases former inmates to our streets & blames us for homelessness.

In Texas, once a bill has passed both the House and the Senate, the governor has 10 days to sign it. Veto it or do nothing. So he will do nothing. It will go into effect by default so he doesn’t have to take political responsibility for supporting or opposing it.

The Court of International Trade rules that the emergency law invoked by the White House on “Liberation Day” does not give the president unilateral authority to impose tariffs on nearly every country, leaving tariffs in tatters. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/live/c2dekzjg6gzt

Me neither, GI robot. Me neither.

been saying this for like 3 years now, the core constituency of the "manosphere" is not Gen Z or teenage boys, it is 35-55 year old dudes who wish they were still teenage boys

A fascist at a punk rock bowling concert in Vegas 2025 He found it out 👊 #punk #punks #punkrock #fucknazis #fightracism #fightnazis #fucknazis #punkrockhistory

Steven J. Fleischman, MD, president of the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists, said in a statement, “The science has not changed. It is very clear that #COVID infection during pregnancy can be catastrophic and lead to major disability." @acog.org

This is a bribe.

Just about every Republican/Trumpist complaint about public transportation is a poorly disguised version of “there are too many black people.”

MAGA is literally upset that a court told them they are being over taxed on foreign goods and that’s illegal and they are upset 🤣🤣. You can’t make this shit up.

"Trump, in his post, piggybacked on comments Newsom made recently in which he spoke out against transgender athletes participating in women’s sports, calling it an “issue of fairness." Reminder Newsom made those comments in his garbage podcast pandering to the bigoted right. Just a coward.

TEXT BASEBALL

It’s been around for a while now - partially because of stagnate wages making university less accessible and more risky

friendly reminder Bluesky is public and probably monitored real time by every law enforcement agency and it's extremely unproductive or even dangerous to violently threaten anyone, especially public figures. think before you post! it's good to be angry, but don't risk your safety over nothing

“Texas businesses do not want a ban on THC. This is a ban on 50,000 jobs held by working families across the state. It’s a ban on 8 billion in annual tax revenue.” State Rep. Ana-María Rodríguez Ramos, D-Richardson, said shortly before the vote. #txlege

Privatize everything to companies we like, nationalize everything from companies we don’t. Makes sense.

Could you muse that perhaps Kimi Antonelli is going through the same wobble as Franco Colapinto did last year? Both excelled at the start, but then when interest/hype grew rapidly, both experienced misfortune/incidents. #F1 They'll both be fine though in the long run.

In 2019 I remember looking at this house that was 180k. The main selling point was not that it had a pool, but the pool had a dragon statue fountain.
