Today is the day! My book is out in the world. It’s not a friendly world for writing about science or women or especially women’s bodies right now. But I’m so proud to be telling a story that makes a certain type of person very, very angry. www.hachettebookgroup.com/titles/casey...

Watching tech people tremble before the awesome power of AI feels like when an actor is “attacked” by a wild animal in a movie but they are just holding a raccoon pelt to their neck and pretending to wrestle with it

the uncompromising nature of the vacation auto-responder when you are the only person who works here🌱

Trump: we will rain blows upon you until you eliminate your missile program Iran: you won't T: and your nuclear program I: we'll be keeping that T: fair enough. regime change? I: no T: reopen hormuz? I: *admires fingernails* T: handshake? eye contact? I: *closes door behind them* T: *to camera*

New: Researchers have quantified how easy AI search is to manipulate. Just 13 words buried in a random Reddit comment can poison AI search results. They suggest this is not easy to stop: "The way you can attack these systems is so much dumber than you think it is" www.404media.co/it-is-trivia...

“Walking and biking is such a richer experience sensorially. You're feeling the breeze. You can capture all of this information and have this enriched experience of the world that you can't when you're speeding by in a car, even at a slow speed.” @caseyjohnston.bsky.social @thewaroncars.bsky.social

I got into weights when I was pregnant and have continued it for the past 20-ish months after my daughter was born. I did not know I would fall in love with it. I started this book the other day and it’s been really interesting. Worth a read!

It appears many of you are drawing the wrong conclusion that my partner is a torment nexus from my new book, My Partner Is Definitely Not A Torment Nexus. Unfortunately you’ll have to wait for the sequel, Turns Out My Partner Was A Torment Nexus All Along

I'm not saying this is a good thing but if I'm reading a novel and come upon a big chunk of poetry or song lyrics, maybe written by the protagonist maybe even crucial to the plot, the only thing I think is: cool I can skip this page

what happened to if you have time to lean you have time to clean. or does that only apply to me making $7.25/hr to sell shitty frozen yogurt and not the highly paid murder squad

When will the Pentagon turn a profit? How long are we going to prop up this failing organization?

Ordinary people -- well, y'know, non-gym-bros -- getting into weight training is just such a great thing to see. It's so good for you, such a confidence boost. I hope the wave of casual-lifting spreads.

PS everyone should check out @caseyjohnston.bsky.social's Liftoff program. Super great, easy, low-stress way to get into weight training.

where’s my money 😔

This line from @caseyjohnston.bsky.social newsletter feels depressingly true: "now that Gen Z is mostly adults, it seems like laptops in the classroom were a massive mistake, and all we did was feed $30 billion to tech companies (plus a generation of captive users) who eminently do not need it."

great rule

you spend years of your life researching WADA/USADA policy about cannabis and sport performance and then you look up and see rich normies just popping the superbanned stuff lol.
