The rebooted Battlestar Galactica. It started so strong and epic, and ended like a rotten eclair being crushed under a semi truck tire.

One of the cool things about being an adult is rediscovering something from your childhood in a new perspective. Couple days ago “Take on Me” came on my playlist. I grew up with that always on the radio. Just background noise as a kid, you know? Never even really listened to it.

For that matter I also do not know how we “stop punishing rural America” when rural America has not been punished for a single Christ-damned thing it’s done since 1964 and that’s exactly the problem

The strategy next time should be to indict everyone for everything, everywhere. The ex-president, if alive, should get a hundred indictments, spread across as many districts as possible, with as many state charges separately brought as possible. Cabinet members and aides should get dozens.

When I was 15 my boyfriend at the time said when we were cuddling, "I wish we could lie here forever". I am now 43 and I regularly think, god we would still be lying there now how boring.

I have a theory that the more Mormon a place is, the less spicy the Panda is. Rexburg’s Panda, for example, tasted like cardboard while the Vegas Panda about took my head off. Anyways, can confirm Utah hostility to things like this. 😂

We are in the ambulance now. He is unconscious, but not.  Nobody unhooked anything but they tied into the eeg and is sending some sort of messages across the screen.  If cook be gargled junk or it could be coherent.   We dont know what’s going to happen but his organs and brain all see to be fine.  Please pray for us and for God will be done here.  He is not done with with Matthew yet.  All I know is is called his friend Shawn Webb and said something about making carbon.

The internet is going to cannibalize itself in slop and agents and irritating dark patterns and the world is just going to go back to living in our communities because there will be so little joy left of this once beautiful wild system we let a dozen companies ruin.

A study using PET brain scans found people with Long COVID had significantly lower levels of VMAT2, a protein involved in dopamine signalling, compared with healthy people. Reductions of 16–20% were found in brain regions involved in motivation, movement, memory, planning and apathy.

The thing that's really bothering me about all this is that Talarico has a genuinely impressive track record on trans rights! The impulse that treats "very good, but not quite perfect" as though it were abject evil is such a poison

Let's put it this way - lets say Clarence Thomas dies in 2027. Talarico or Paxton is the deciding vote. Who would you rather be in office and who do you think would best serve the rights of the trans community long term? Is that simple enough for people?

The president ordering USPS to illegally throw out millions of ballots is at least on par with what he tried to do for 2020, and in big ways it's worse. It's another attempted self-coup, trying to create a fake Congress. That he's even attempting it is already a deadly serious constitutional crisis.
