Saw the Odyssey today. Amazing. Loved it. But I am kind of disappointed that the sirens were mermaids, and not half woman half chicken things.

well then i guess Pace Picante Sauce can SHUT THE FUCK UP

…

I personally love to read shit like "U.S. Pauses 'Project Freedom'" in headlines. Not all good jokes need to be complicated.

Quick reminder that baked into the foundation of AI is the inability to assess the reliability of its answers or even to admit it's wrong in any meaningful capacity (it will say "i'm wrong, I'm sorry" but then carry on as usual). It will hallucinate and it also will never realise it.

One out of 12 rams is uninterested in females. Deemed “non-procreative" by farmers, they're typically sent to slaughter. German farmer Michael Stücke rescues the gay rams. His company Rainbow Wool, sells fabulous wool products from his flock of gay sheep. rainbow-wool.com

Poor Lexington! I spent a week here doing family research summer before last. This is really going to hurt.

Quick guide to interpreting US foreign policy propaganda: if the word “deal” was used, some American made some money, and the war is still going on.

i strongly, strongly believe that good writing is downstream of clear thinking and a strong understanding of the subject matter at hand. without fail, tortured writing comes from writers who don’t know and can’t think clearly about anything.

Look, they're calling it the Epstein "transparency act". Which means it's going to be the opposite of transparent, since that's a Trump propaganda/doublespeak word now. (See use of, re Venezuela torpedoings) We are not going to get anything actually productive out of this. We will get the usual bs.

Reading Vonnegut's quote, I think about how, after so many militarized "Peace Keeping" missions America performed over the past two generations, that most Americans probably no longer understand that Peace does not actually involve weapons. That Peace means putting those weapons down.

Truly, a pillow for our times.

My alt-wellness, OG antivax cousin just posted on FB, "My son is in the hospital with appendicitis, pray he doesn't need surgery! God brings healing!" And, like, God or no God, the only way to fix appendicitis is surgery. And she believes yam paste cured her dad's skin cancer. So I'm here like:

Absolutely this. If I outsource my grading, gow will I understand where this person is at personally? Data is impersonal.

A raccoon just drooled on me. He was on my roof, leaning over the eave. It was like a little raindrop.

As for Tiny Tim--who did NOT die-- He turns two today!

This is staggering. Dismantling the right wing propaganda machine is imo one of the biggest and most vital obstacles to the future of this country.

The right is honoring Charlie Kirk’s legacy of “free speech” by firing everyone exercising free speech…

My guess: Putin threatened nuclear weapons.

maybe there's still some good left in this world after all

Can y'all do me a favor? If you see this post, can you repost the quoted post? I'd really appreciate any help getting more eyes on my editing services Thank you!

Raccoons are dicks.

I am throwing green plums at the skunk. Will I win?

Oh shit, Ben Linus has a police force now?

Oh man, I am getting bold. I am shooing away skunks from the cat food like they are raccoons. This may backfire on me one day.

Tiny Tim is an adorably solid unit of a cat.

Imagine putting on all this tactical gear and latching onto a military assault vehicle so you can storm a minimall on Sepulveda and apprehend a line cook at family restaurant.

This entire thread is incredible. Thank you @lorennacleary.bsky.social

It is the last week of school, and I have bought myself a half dozen cookies from the local boutique cookie shop to help sustain me through these last days

They're going to be friends again in a few days. Nbd.

Many excellent points here as usual, but I can't help thinking about Consevatives reading the final anectdote about the dangers of promoting ideology over science, who would inevitably and obtusely say, "Well Lysenko was a Communist and that's why his ideas didn't work."

I honored Memorial Day by getting my Dad to talk about his experiences in Vietnam. He has always refused to talk about it. I went in with a timeline of his ship and pointed questions and got him to share some memories. I couldnt question him too long because he started to shut down, but...Finally!

Dinnertime with Gandalf the Grey, Captain of my Grey Cat Army of ferals.

I have not yet seen any official or journalist answer these questions: Why these 50 people in particular? Who recruited them, or who got the info to them? How did they know where and how to apply? (because it seems this program didn't exist 3 weeks ago.) Do they have any connections to El*n Mu$k?

I woke up this morning thinking about Western Tanagers: "It's late spring, I haven't seen the Western Tanagers come through ny yard yet. Did I miss them? And then I went out my front door and THERE THEY WERE!

Happy Birthday Autumn Ann! 3 years old today!

I have never felt so understood in my life 😂

I am lucky if I make it through two hours of Contracts without saying something dumb and he drops this twenty hours in

Sen. Booker’s speech was a substantive and moral account of this moment. He did not read the phone book. He did not babble. For 24 hours @booker.senate.gov laid out a detailed, damning, and critical narrative of truth, history, politics, morality, humanity. What will you do?

Booker on Strom Thurmond: "I'm not here because of his speech. I'm here in spite of his speech. I'm here because as poweful as he was, the people were more powerful."

Yes! Kick that racist outta the record books!
