Ooooh, are we sharing fables? I got one for you. So, there's this frog that enters public service, presumably for the right reasons. He spends years as a district judge, then gets elected to the state supreme court, then attorney general of that state. (thread)

An old, but apt fable:

A scorpion wants to cross a river but cannot swim, so it asks a frog to carry it across. The frog hesitates, afraid that the scorpion might sting it, but the scorpion promises not to, pointing out that it would drown if it killed the frog in the middle of the river. The frog considers this argument sensible and agrees to transport the scorpion. Midway across the river, the scorpion stings the frog anyway, dooming them both. The dying frog asks the scorpion why it stung despite knowing the consequence, to which the scorpion replies: "I am sorry, but I couldn't help myself. It's my character."

when I was happy to inspire fear (usually in defense of friends or loved ones). now as I'm reaching middle age (and perimenopause too), I definitely prefer to inspire fear. fear can get shit done as another woman said on insta, let's stop choosing the bear. let's be the bear.

"she has always sparked more fear than lust in the hearts of men" - amanda lovelace I love this line so much. I think because I've always been on the chubby/fat side of things that I was rarely the girl inspiring lust in men. and while younger me found that sad, there were certainly times

Anybody wanna take a random google quiz where you have to guess if a line is Pop or Poet? It's for a work thing and I'm trying to help boost my numbers. Here's the link: forms.gle/TsV9piwM9ohP...

Pop or Poet

Are these one-liners from pop music icons or classic poetry?

for me, it's this, Wizened Crone, or Bog Witch. maybe a combo of all three would be possible...

it's a pretty close race between Much Ado about Nothing and Twelfth Night for me, but I think Much Ado wins in my heart. maybe it's because it was one of the first film adaptations that I saw and I just loved all of it so much

I used to show pigs for stock shows back in elementary and junior high and they were all the sweetest, funniest animals we had. And they loved cuddling almost as much as dogs do, which was lovely when it was cold out and I could cuddle in their little pig houses with them.

Not an original point but worth saying again - there is not a single element in this picture that identifies any of these folks as law enforcement agents. No badges, no uniforms, no vests. Out of context it just looks like a bunch of random guys are kidnapping a mayoral candidate.

Musk should be asked about this in every interview he does now and forever. To ignore it is a dereliction of duty. www.nytimes.com/2025/05/30/o...

There is one place, however, where Musk, with the help of his minions, achieved his goals. He did indeed shred U.S.A.I.D. Though a rump operation is now operating inside the State Department, the administration says that it has terminated more than 80 percent of U.S.A.I.D. grants. Brooke Nichols, an associate professor of global health at Boston University, has estimated that these cuts have already resulted in about 300,000 deaths, most of them of children, and will most likely lead to significantly more by the end of the year. That is what Musk’s foray into politics accomplished.

Seeing modern public libraries, one of America's greatest innovations and contributions to the world, be attacked, politicized, and conquered by authoritarians is too much to bear. Declaring library books "government speech" is horrifying. Check on your librarians, we are not okay.
