@aoc.bsky.social: The best thing that we can do to rein in runaway costs at private institutions is by having tuition free public colleges and universities. “For anyone who wants to say that that’s pie in the sky and unrealistic… this is literally what baby boomers gave themselves.”

Calvin and Hobbes really called it, didn’t they?
A black and white drawing from a Calvin and Hobbes strip. They are sitting together on a tree branch. Calvin says, with a furrowed brow, “isn’t it sad how some people’s grip on their lives is so precarious that they’ll embrace any preposterous delusion rather than face an occasional bleak truth?”

Imagine being talented and beautiful and rich and famous and still the most noteworthy thing about you is how good a person you are.

One way you know Dolly Parton lived life the right way: I don’t think anyone’s going to get fired for accurately quoting Dolly Parton today.

dying while in office not enough. prison is what his heinous crimes warrant. the nation will need a tribunal to hold him and his maga GOP accountable for contempt of democracy, for undermining the constitution they swore to uphold. and, at long last, the #epstein survivors will deserve justice.

This morning in Biddeford, Maine, a 26-year-old man said goodbye to his wife and daughter and left for work. Moments later he was dead, shot in the head by ICE agents, the second man ICE has killed in six days. ICE is killing our neighbors. ICE cannot be reformed. Abolish ICE.

Every review of “smart glasses” I’ve seen includes some line about how you can escape the tyranny of your phone by *wearing the phone on your face* and I think I have a very different definition of tyranny.

The Leaf Sheep is a 5mm sea slug that steals chloroplasts from algae and keeps them alive in its own tissue, photosynthesizing sunlight into food. Only a handful of animals on Earth can do this.

Rewatching the matrix and thinking... this isn't dystopian... dystopian is being in a room of 50 people and your desk faces someone facing you... and your back is almost touching someone else... and everyone with headphones on. I absolutely hated that version of working in the office.

On March 26, 2026, during a debate on violence against women in Germany’s Bundestag, left-wing MP Kathrin Gebel was repeatedly interrupted by AfD MP Martin Reichardt. She responded: “Mr. Reichardt, the clitoris has 3,000 nerve endings, and you’re still more sensitive. That’s quite an achievement.”

Just a reminder, the company you work for does not care about you. You could drop dead today while working and they will replace you in a short amount of time. I say this only because we collectively need to stop giving these companies all of our energy even when we’re off the clock.

we're socializing a rescue kitten before she gets adopted, and the instructions boil down to: make her understand that when human comes in, food appears, and nothing bad happens. which... oh my feels. I'm still learning the "nothing bad happens" part myself
