Is it weird that my response to TERFs is to say, "why are you being a little birch about this? Calm your tits!"

This is what's wrong with America. That spot at Harvard could have uplifted a poor kid who worked hard and instead it went to a narcissistic addict from a "good" family. Absurd
A screenshot from the Atlantic app with the following words highlighted messily in blue

By the time he was accepted into Harvard (his father, his uncles, and his grandfather had all gone there), he had been pushed out of multiple boarding schools, been arrested for marijuana possession, and become estranged from his mother. When he was still a teenager, he hopped trains to Haight-Ashbury, in San Francisco, to hang with the hippies, and worked in a Colorado lumber camp. His heroin addiction would last 14 years,

Sometimes you just need some majesty in your life. Don't fail to full screen it. Totally worth it. Just wait until 20 seconds when you see the solar panels roll across the earth

In our personal lives we need to pretend free will is real. As a society we need to realize that it kind of isn't.

Mars may want our women, but look who wants our seniors!

Me, to someone who just told me they work for ICE: That's OK, man, I'm sure that if you work hard and get the right skills you can eventually be a real cop. Like at a mall or a college or something. You know, where you get a badge and stuff?

If you run a biomedical company you're REALLY leaving a lot of good works on the table if you're not spending a fair bit of money to advertise to HHS employees that you're prioritizing hiring anyone fired by Lil Bobby. You know they're going to be amazing employees that follow the science.

how does this feel to those of us who have studied international economics and international politics? Imagine an aeronautical engineer sitting on a plane, watching drunk airline execs complaining that "the wings are too big, they slow down the plane" and revving up a giant Sawzall
