A limited number of crab and frog facts advent calendars are now available at SquidFacts.net! These need to be made by hand, so we’ve been phasing them out but I was very lucky to have some help this week making some more in the lead up to December. Get ‘em while they’re here! SquidFacts.net

Two sparkly shiny advent calendars, one with frogs one with crabs

Fun fact: Tesla went with a giant touchscreen instead of knobs for the Model 3 purely to save time and money. Knobs would have required spinning up a whole supply chain. The company spun it as a luxury feature and much of the industry followed suit. But it was always an inferior substitute.

as ever: can we fucking stop with making smooth-brained as an insult, internet. insulting cognitive impairment or insinuating that it’s Innately Bad is not okay, no matter WHAT fucking term you use to do so. ‘smooth-brained’ as an insult is literally just a reskin of ‘retarded’ and it’s STILL WRONG

When some of you say "there's no money for public libraries etc..." I hope you know that there always is and it's just not prioritized.

we fucking loved it, even when there was basically nothing on it, and let me tell you something else: we loved it because of human connection, human diversity, human creativity. WE DON'T NEED A SINGLE THING ANY OF THESE COMEMIERDAS HAVE MADE AND TRIED TO SELL US IN ORDER TO HAVE A GREAT INTERNET.

I feel like there's a cohort of us who got on the internet before "social media" and made all sorts of healthy friendships through forums or livejournal or what have you and thus, while everyone's like SOCIAL MEDIA FUELS COMPARISON AND MISERY we're like, but that's just where my friends live.

every day I think about how misogynoir is stress and stress goes right into your blood pressure isn’t it cool how everyone has been handed a basic tool to slowly destroy you, physically, while also proclaiming their innocence and how their part in it isn’t that big of a deal?

So if you actually care about restorative justice, the thing I beg you to start doing in these cases is CENTERING THE FUCKING VICTIMS. And not demanding that people immediately jump to how they can best not ruin the man's life.

Not to insomnia-weigh-in on the concept of restorative justice, but I thought long and hard ten years ago about what I would say if someone asked what Alex Kozinski could do by way of restorative justice. (Nobody ever asked.)

we need to respond to gen z's success at the box office with a millennialcore Backrooms. The interior of this pop-up kitchen seems normal at first... but then you start to notice the "kiss me and feed me tacos" neon signs become increasingly twisted... the shareables become unshareable...

Excellent thread! There *are* rewards for being A Good Guy Who Speaks Up even if they are not immediately obvious or publicly bestowed. First, integrity is its own reward. Maybe you didn’t save the world or change hearts & minds. But if you held the line on not making it worse, that’s something.
