so, I got logged out on my phone months ago and I just never bothered to fix it... what's everyone up to?

My wizard has been leveled up to 5 so now I can cast fireball. I know it is a cliche but like, I'm so excited to caste fireball.

So glad ICE is in Chicago. The city is a lawless hell-scape. Blues musicians wrecking hundreds of police cars. High schoolers doing weird scientific sex experiments. Kids home alone during the holidays. Women killing their husbands and lovers and then SINGING about it sassily. This has to stop.

It is the week of my sister's nuptials. I have so much to do before I head out for it and I'm so excited for her. I just need that adrenaline rush of hyper focus to last me a little longer. I worked on her wedding gift pretty much all weekend and I'm almost done but 90% is not complete.

i am once again inquiring about who is so mad at their baby daddy that they’d be willing to mail me his ps5

I don't know about you folks, but I plan to deadname the Defense Department every chance I get.

I’ve seen enough. Impeach Robert F. Kennedy, Jr.

RFK Jr. rolled out that old chestnut again about how healthy Americans were in the 60’s, so here’s a fact check. In 1965: -42% of American adults smoked; it’s 11% now. -The infant morality rate was 24.7/1000; it’s 5.6/1000 now. -Overall life expectancy was 70 years; it's about 77 years now.

If you insist

This seems like a waste of time and resources. Not like they actually do anything when MO voters pass liberal policies via ballot initiatives. See abortion rights, sick leave, Medicaid expansion for a few examples

“Do not offer thoughts and prayers as you systemically enable such tragedies. Do not claim prayers are sufficient when children die as they pray. Do not pretend you do not understand.” — Lydia, 16, Minneapolis

I got the complaint in the horrific OpenAI self harm case the the NY Times reported today This is way way worse even than the NYT article makes it out to be OpenAI absolutely deserves to be run out of business

Democrats’ favorite research firm told them to avoid discussing Trump’s “rising authoritarianism” and focus on tariffs instead. Story: www.rollingstone.com/politics/pol...

Gov. Pritzker: This is not about fighting crime. This is about Trump searching for any justification to deploy the military in a blue city to try and intimidate his political rivals. This is about Trump searching for ways to circumvent our democracy, militarize our cities, and end elections

Donald Trump says he is going to deploy the National Guard to Chicago. This is what weak men do to pretend they’re strong. Stay safe, stand with your community, and most importantly, know your rights:

Today I told a grown man at work that he was "the prettiest girl at the party" when some metaphors went wild and I'm still cackling

watching my kid do her homework on her computer is incredibly frustrating. She's doing an assignment (which allows the teacher to see if it was completed, etc) but she has to take a screenshot of her result and put it into another app to get credit. And the due dates are wrong, of course

<takes a drag from my imaginary cigarette> HTS, now that's something I haven't had to worry about in a long time

Mood today has been COUCH COUCH COUCH

We still follow the old ways, we have a computer in a corner (mostly used for video games) but available for anyone in the family and next to a printer.

My team deployed to production so bringing in cake tomorrow, but it only has one product in it so I made mini cupcakes. Mini cupcakes are so much harder than one big cake. I'm exhausted 😩

ai company: we’ve upgraded the model the model: fuck work

My company does science outreach within the community and the latest round of experiments are AI focused. Teaching kids about generative AI, what it is and how to recognize it and thinking critically about it. Will be interesting to hear how & what these young kids feel about AI.

Not going to lie, I zoned out there and have no idea how many puffs I did on my inhaler 😅

Constantly ignoring the will of the voters. And trying to make it harder to get ballot initiatives.

Most of the people saying "it is just like 1984" are pointing out exact scenarios laid out by Butler. Down to the climate change, the motto, everything.

When Hasan Piker bought a $2.7 million house in LA for him and his family to live in, critics said he wasn’t a real socialist because it’s too expensive. When Zohran Mamdani rents a $2,300 a month apartment in NYC, critics say it’s too cheap for him and he’s not a real socialist. It’s all bad faith

I HAVE BEEN LOOKING EVERYWHERE AND I CANNOT FIND THE ONE PIECE OF PAPERWORK I NEED!!!

Just bought tickets to a nerdy event for next weekend and I get to wear my Anne Boleyn gown for the first time 😍

in my ✨ exhausted ✨ era

Feeling like hot garbage 😭 Knowing I'm going to go into the weekend just to rest and recover when I have a big to do list is not fun prospect.

Here are the Top 5 Dogs of the week!

"Bluesky is dying" Oh yeah? Then explain why this GIF always does numbers.

Maybe a weird question - but did anyone I know on here do the NROTC route to the Navy? I have a coworker whose senior is thinking of this route and I have a lot of family in various branches but none in the Navy. Her mom would really like to connect her with someone with experience. Hit me up. Thx!

We only rate dogs. This is the goth cousin of Mike Wazowski from Monsters Inc. Please understand it's not just a phase, and only send dogs. Thank you… 12/10 (credit u/vincidelaunc)

George W Bush is not your friendly grandpa. He was an unmitigated disaster that directly led to Trump.

Since this is such a private place, I feel safe relating the following. I just do not enjoy Eric Clapton. No, sir, I do not. Or Rod Stewart.

Texas Democrats aren’t running away from anything. They’re fighting, with every tool they have, to save our democracy. Kudos to each and every one of them for taking this stand. We should be inspired by their courage and reminded that tyranny is only possible if we submit to it.

I blame @scalzi.com I've been listening to the K-pop Demon Hunters soundtrack ALL DAY

Democrats leaving the state effectively brings the state House of Representatives to a standstill and prevents any consideration by the full chamber of HB 4, which would dramatically redraw Texas’ congressional maps (via Houston Public Media).

Ol fashion casserole for dinner from the family cookbook and jello for dessert. It started as a joke, but here we are about to have retro family dinner.

we have always been at war with the bureau of labor statistics
