It was a good day for protests on the Plaza, evil red-eyed bunnies, and GI Robot.

This is the "line" for Planet Comicon. Who the fuck thought this was a good idea? After 35 years you would think they'd have figured it out. Glad I came the extra day just to pick up wristbands 🙄 #PlanetComicon

What? Large corporations with record profits while consumer prices shoot up due to shortages? Shocked. 🙄

Look, I despise the NFL for many, many reasons but one thing I look forward to every year is watching conservatives lose their minds when the halftime show doesn't cater to them. It amuses me to watch the pearl-clutching.

Also, you know: Fuck "toughening up." It's just code for "let the worst people dictate the terms of the discourse," and why the fuck would I do that? They're terrible people. I don't want to have to wallow in the fucking sewer because the worst people like to play in their own shit.

Just because he's spewing this to Germans doesn't mean he's not pushing his racist shit here too.

He feels compelled to pretend he knows things other people don't. It's a classic tell in people who are insecure about their intellect. Smart people listen more and ask good questions. Idiots have a quick answer for everything.

If repubs don't want to fund research, fine. Then don't let them reap the benefits from it. That includes medicines and technology.

If SM is considered an extension of our private minds then dehumanization & the aggression of protecting our id will always reign. Maybe the people who joined Bsky don’t WANT to be surrounded by the worst selves of humans that are living out their id’s fantasies in a lawless virtual world over X.

Does The Internet Id Exist Outside Of Public Spaces?
Was the internet meant to be an extension of our private minds? Or a public forum?

My one wish for the inauguration is that there is a gift bag under the seats of Bezos, Zuck, Elon etc, with a single, embroidered , padded knee pad Need to protect themselves when they are on bended knee, kissing the ring 🤷😆

Our roof started leaking last night with all the melting snow. There is now a large fan going in the living room and maintenance is going to pull down a corner of the ceiling and wall Monday.

It only took 6 hours (most of which was ripping off the old carpet with a thousand staples), but I got the whole cat tree recovered. The little bastards better appreciate it!

One of the "expert witnesses" defending Missouri's ban on gender-affirming medical care is a Jerry Sandusky truther who believes the former Penn State football coach is innocent. Sandusky was convicted in 2012 of 52 instances of sexual abuse of young boys.
