I think we really should stop using antifa and just fully say anti-fascist and get them saying they are against anti fascism. Using antifa is giving them some distance and I genuinely think some of their base don’t even know that’s what it stands for.

Today is a day when arts degrees are worthless, but the product of those degrees is so valuable it would kill an entire industry if they were made to pay for it.

I have no idea why an account that I'm used to posting 100% movie/TV reviews and related hot takes has suddenly gifted me 13 posts' worth of excellent cassowary facts, but here's me not complaining.

So many thoughts... so little time! #ADHDAwarenessMonth

Title: “Sharing Thoughts.”

Top panel labeled “Non-ADHD”: One person carefully holds a single green butterfly taken from labeled jars of “Experiences,” “Ideas,” and “Opinions,” calmly sharing it with another person who listens with interest.

Bottom panel labeled “ADHD”: The ADHD character joyfully releases a colorful swarm of butterflies—orange, blue, purple, pink, yellow, and green—representing many thoughts and ideas all at once, while the other person looks startled and overwhelmed.

Human writing surprises you. ChatGPT can't do that because it's all based on probability. There's a line in a Sigrid song, "you touch like you want revenge" - I heard it and went, "ChatGPT couldn't write that."

Having a cat has certainly added a new dimension to collecting bug photos for iNaturalist.

Day 3 of glasses-wearing: I've reached the point where I forget I'm even wearing them. Then I see myself in a mirror and am startled all over again by what I look like now. Literally mistook myself for someone else in a mass video call at work.

The weirdest thing about becoming someone who wears glasses at age 42 is how I look completely alien to myself and yet, based on the percentage of my workmates who have noticed in two days, apparently completely normal to everyone else.

The Age has done an excellent and damning investigation into how neo-Nazis have successfully co-opted and twisted other right-wing groups, and how deeply they are entwined with the racist protests that started popping up on August 31: archive.md/jHp8s

So, we has cat now. Her name is Starling, she's an endless font of curiosity and chaos who believes she belongs inside and on top of everything, no matter how unhelpful or downright impractical, she purrs like an engine when she greets us, and both her dads are madly in love with her.

Fighting chytrid fungus (and frog extinction) with homemade saunas! I love how practical and replicable this solution is! 🐸 Side note: Anthony Waddle is the perfect name for a biologist working in wetlands, and no one can convince me otherwise.

A sit in the sauna can save endangered frogs

Anthony Waddle’s unconventional approach resulted in a stunningly practical solution to fight a deadly fungal infection.

I would also note that the TOS quoted in the message to Jessie state that this is about respect for users. but JK Rowling is not a user. so the admins are prioritizing the imagined feelings of a public figure who will never see our posts over the trans people they fail to protect on here daily
