Also @thedave42@techhub.social I believe in freedom… and no practical definition of freedom would be completely without the freedom to take the consequences. Indeed, it is the freedom upon which all the others are based. - H. Vetinari

I have reached the age where solicitations for charitable donations have switched from “donate now” to “how about leaving us some money when you die?”

It’s so strange that when you’re rich the dumbest shit that comes out of your mouth is treated like some well thought out policy…

I am so thankful to @nogodsnomayors.com for informing me about the home town of Pavarotti constructing an ice skating rink around his new statue so he now looks like the happiest man in Cocytus. www.bbc.com/news/article...

Pavarotti statue frozen knee-deep in ice rink strikes wrong note in Italy
The opera legend's widow said the town had made an "absurd decision" after it also encouraged skaters to high five the statue.

🚨HAPPY EXPLODING WHALE DAY🚨 1/n www.oregonlive.com/travel/2024/...
Color image of a beach with ocean in background, sand foreground, some grassy cover in right lower corner. The sky seems clear-ish. 

In mid-ground near beach-water interface is a large explosion in sandy colors and also some red where untrained jackasses have used too much, and wrongly placed, dynamite in an effort to obliterate a rotting whale carcass. 

Rotting whale proceeded to rain upon the watching crowd and no one was injured. 

It is glorious.

I know there's been years of disinfo downplaying the flu in order to dismiss COVID as a threat, but both things cause serious illness and are best avoided. This flu wave is no joke. It's a good idea to get this season's flu vaccine (it's not too late), and wear a well-fitting mask like an N95.

These throwable fire extinguishers seem like a real-life example of xkcd.com/937 — they have really good reviews from everyone except the few people who tried using them to put out fires

It's remarkable that the co-chair of the Federalist Society is admitting that Clarence Thomas relies on "gifts" from rich friends.
