Today's #BirdOftheday Alt Theme is #Grey, birds with grey in its Plumage. I don't care what anyone says. Pigeons are so pretty. This beauty is a rock pigeon. #birds #photography #birdsofbluesky

it's like Disney's The Hunchback of Notre Dame never happened

It drives me insane to see apparent progressives and leftists conflating ugliness and evil both because it’s wrong and because it’s nazi shit! That is one of their famous things! Stop it!!

it’s extremely good in retrospect that, as a child, I read the utterly horrifying Roald Dahl memoirs about his British boarding school experience before I read Harry Potter: this filled me with an appropriate degree of skepticism

My dad grew up in English boarding schools and I read Roald Dahl's memoir "Boy" as a kid and what I think Americans don't get in these types of critiques is that Hogwarts is a *nice* version of a British boarding school.

I suspect this is a common sentiment (this is also how I feel)

I would be about 75% less opposed to AI if it weren't under the control of a small group of fascist billionaires who believe they are entitled to rule over us and who have been de facto exempted from obeying the law.

My investor told me he doesn't really see the moat in my plan. I explained that's the point. The glacis protects the base of the wall and obscures the ditch entirely. By the time the assault party reaches the counterscarp with fascines, they will be committed and under crossfire from grapeshot

letting a woman passionately ramble for like 8 minutes is maybe the most intimate act one can get up to with their clothes on

A highly enjoyable bit of cultural convergent evolution is that His Dark Materials has the same narrative structure as a 90s JRPG: First level: you, your childhood friend who will ultimately die have childish hijinks! Final level: you, your love interest and a motley crew fight God

Did You Know: Arch-Mage Trebonius Artorius ordered Sirilonwe to learn the language of silt striders, so they could be interrogated about their passengers? She instead chose not to do this, and encouraged everyone to ignore any other assignments from Trebonius.

I genuinely believe Peter Thiel's suite of Tolkien-branded police-state companies may collectively constitute the worst literary criticism of all time

regardless of how centrist & moderate you try to position your politics, conservatives will still call you a Marxist, communist, anarchist, or socialist. you might as well embrace leftism. Republicans are going to treat you the same way regardless.

NEW β€” OMB temporarily pauses all agency grants and loans programs. Per copy of memo: "The use of Federal resources to advance Marxist equity, transgenderism, and green new deal social engineering policies is a waste of taxpayer dollars that does not improve the day-to-day lives of those we serve."

Don't know who needs to hear this, but Unclench your jaw Let your shoulders drop Liquefy all your connective tissue for the nutrients Slither bonelessly off your chair Wick yourself up the walls through capillary action Envelop the room Become a new god Become a new god
