Friendly Pumpkin @pumpkinpal.bsky.social · 3hAthletic's NA light beer is kind of like beer flavored LaCroix except I actually mean that as a compliment and not an insult? Is it beer? Not exactly. But it's beer-ish and you can crush a whole six for roughly the same amount of sugar as one coke. 131
Friendly Pumpkin @pumpkinpal.bsky.social · 6hSo which is a funnier explanation: that somebody in the administration actually thinks trying to rebrand AI into SI is a smart strategy that will accomplish something? or that Trump personally doesn't like the term AI for ridiculous personal reasons, like maybe he didn't like the Spielberg movie? 000
Friendly Pumpkin @pumpkinpal.bsky.social · 7hMichael Tracey is sort of a perfect avatar for the mediocre American white male: we never got much farther on racial justice or sexual equality or human rights than "we should all pretend we agree equality is good" And the mediocre white guys hated it so much that now they're vocally pro-rape 1131

Friendly Pumpkin @pumpkinpal.bsky.social · 18h"common sense" turns out to be the strongest defender of the world's most extravagant freaks, because when you just *tell people what they think and what they're doing,* people say "no, that doesn't make sense, the world would be scary if that were true" and refuse to believe it. 081

Friendly Pumpkin @pumpkinpal.bsky.social · 28/09/2026Obviously if the governor of Kentucky can say this without some massive swing voter transphobic backlash, that's pretty strong evidence that ~95% of Democrats who "triangulate" on the issue just actually dislike trans people and are looking for excuses to push them out of the tent. 0110
