I'm reading through tiktok comments on videos about @stephenking.bsky.social's The Long Walk, specifically the movie adaptation. Media literacy has fallen so far y'all. Why am I seeing someone say it's "unnecessarily brutal"? BRO THATS THE POINT.

I see the “technically it’s ephebophelia” crowd is out today, so just a reminder that A) this is NOT a case where technically correct is the best kind of correct and B) the minute you say this, the gods dump you in the “irredeemable creeper” basket and wash their hands thoroughly after touching you.

As Toni Morrison said, "the very serious function of racism is distraction. It keeps you from doing your work." But she also reminded us never to lose our capacity to be shocked. Part of my conversation on @ayman.msnbc.com earlier today.

Me: asks @hydrophd.bsky.social if I'm nearly illiterate Also me: graduated my Masters as Summa Cum Laude.

I’ve never been in a relationship where my partner is also my best friend and this is SO FUCKING COOL

hold on just a second here

Not to slut shame but I’m not dressing nearly slutty enough

For some reason it STILL amazes me how confidently wrong men can and will be

Steve has stolen my phone. I keep getting sent these.

Phew another weekend of waiting for the week to begin so i can start waiting for the week to end and the weekend to begin so i can

I for one am not at all worried that the most powerful people on earth have optimized my society and my brain to be ultra-reliant on the misery machine we keep in our pockets.

this is an outgrowth of US political media’s obsession with horserace coverage. nothing is true or false and nothing matters beyond what will get someone elected. it’s deeply cynical and it allows them to elide the straightforward consequences of powerful people’s actions.

Everybody gamely says “Vance hosted Kirk’s podcast” instead of “the regime officially turned the major channel into state-controlled media just as it began its violent crackdown on any opposition or dissident messages.”

I cannot believe the murder of a political figure has me learning about groyper incel femboy facism.

I used to read books like Lord of the Rings or watch movies like Star Wars and think the villains were unbelievable. And of course, now watching the tech oligarchs (who could not spend all their money if they tried) destroy civilization for power, I’m like, guess I was wrong. People are that awful.

The amount of pills I take a day as a “healthy” person is genuinely annoying. 5 in the morning, another 1-3 at night. Cuz why would my body want to bother making the right amounts of serotonin, dopamine, norepinephrine, estrogen, androgens, and cortisol when store bought works almost as well??? 🙄

I think the first time I knew I didn’t want kids was in elementary school and the power went out, including the lights, and a bunch of kids screamed. ITS DAYLIGHT OUT YOU CAN SEE JUST FINE SHUT UP.

Oh, the 90s are back? Are they? You posers, I haven’t seen one of you wearing a long sleeved shirt under a short sleeved shirt OR chunky black buckle pilgrim shoes OR feeling good about the future so

Let there be a thousand blossoms bloom.

I managed to get to adulthood with no religious trauma, I simply don’t care. But what I DO care about is learning objectively insane little footnotes of info within each religion. Ex: Mormons can explain Bigfoot.

I’ve been at the Onslow County NC DMV for 4.5 hours. Plz kill me.

While I have never LARPed, this feels very accurate.

Recently, my book THEY CALLED US ENEMY was banned – again – in Tennessee. Book bans are out of control. Huge parts of American history are being restricted. To join me in standing up for the freedom to read, go to pen.org/action. @penamerica.bsky.social @topshelfcomix.bsky.social @idwpublishing.com

The greatest tool working people have to win dignity, power and respect is organizing. So proud to stand with labor as your Democratic nominee for Mayor of New York City.

Why is it so hard to find artists that aren’t pieces of shit? Seems like for every Terry Pratchett or Weird Al there are 10 Neil Gaiman or R Kelly.

Really yanked my shoulder just now when the box I was standing on to reach a shelf topped under me. I’m 31….hope this isn’t a new Forever Pain.

If you’ve never seen one before, this is a strawberry finch.

Journalists lost legitimacy with the right, and in their obsession with Both Sides, decided the only path forward was to balance it out by losing all their legitimacy with the left

Somebody somewhere Needs flowers tonight

Every damn night.

Resolution Copper is blocking comments and hiding replies from anyone calling out what they’re doing at Oak Flat. They’re trying to mine on sacred Native American land, with the government’s help, and don’t want the public to push back.
