A GENTLE REMINDER THAT IXORA IS AVAILABLE FOR ADOPTION OR FOSTER!!!!!!! she is so good girl-coded and she has to leave foster with me later this month when I travel. Ixora’s interests are Yard, Water from Hose (Biting), and Cheese www.adoptapet.com/pet/47504006...

The cost of your flight went up because you searched for it twice. Your rideshare costs more because your phone battery is dying. This is surveillance pricing – corporations using your own data and behaviors against you. In the US Senate, I’ve got plan to ban it.

I just don't understand how anybody can think this is okay. Utterly bizarre behavior all the way around.

Do you enjoy old computers and live in the US Pacific Northwest? We're six weeks out from the first Vintage Computer Festival Pacific Northwest since 2019! We'd love to see you there and we'd love your help getting the word out. Reposts appreciated! vcfpnw.org

A lot of people say AI isn't very good for the world and its outputs are routinely unreliable, but these haters fail to see how it's revolutionizing how we incinerate schoolchildren.

Every photo from Minneapolis looks like this. Cops decked out with guns and full tac gear facing off against people in bathrobes, parkas, and sweatpants armed only with whistles and cell phones. Yet every verified MAGA chode on X dutifully calls it a riot or violent insurrection.

Happy New Year!

I laugh every time I see this one.

The Flex Loan, a new type of payday loan pioneered by Advance Financial in Tennessee, allows residents to borrow up to $4,000 at a 279.5% interest rate. It has burdened low-income borrowers while generating huge profits for lenders. (Published May with @tennesseelookout.com)

What we're witnessing with #Melissa is ultra rare in the history of known hurricanes in the Atlantic. This level of sustained intensity and feasting on every joule of ocean heat content without any real disruption is incredible. Not hyperbole: Jamaica is facing a generational catastrophic event.

They will need all the help when this is over.

Episode 505: No Real Creatures Author: JMJ Brewer Narrator: Norm Sherman Artist: Bo Kaier THIS...is a weird one. Just go listen to it. Trust me. JMJ Brewer knows how to deliver my favorite kind of world-building, the bag-over-your-head-in-a-white-van kind. #jmjbrewer #fiction #weird #newepisode #sf

I have no idea who shot at the ICE facility or why, & hard to trust this FBI director. Murder is always inexcusable. Now, the idea that people are mad at ICE because of ‘Democrats’ rhetoric’ & not because of daily videos of masked ICE agents assaulting people, including citizens, is for the birds.

The U.S.’s largest estuary is showing signs of revival. Once written off as a dead zone, water clarity in Chesapeake Bay has improved, underwater grasses are expanding, and crab populations are steadier thanks to decades of pollution controls. Nature buff.ly/morNFth #ShareGoodNewsToo

@alyankovic.bsky.social Thank you sir! Excellent concert and my 10 year old grandsons first concert. He is certainly never going to forget it. Stay Weird my friend.

I am once again begging Bluesky to allow for muting reposts from specific accounts.

I don’t think anyone is prepared for what they just did w/ ICE. This is not a simple budget increase. It is an explosion - making ICE bigger than the FBI, US Bureau of Prisons, DEA,& others combined. It is setting up to make what’s happening now look like child’s play. And people are disappearing.

White people used to use Black babies as alligator bait. This was the very first thing I thought of when I read about “Alligator Alcatraz.”

Do not obey.

The pitch is never that AI will fold the laundry for us, it's always that AI will remove the good stuff from our lives. Picking a birthday present for my kid isn't a box I check, it's something I want to do, and six months later when that's the stuffy she sleeps with I get to feel good about that.

The more you know what non white people contributed the more you can appreciate All of America.

@cristela.bsky.social i just saw your name on my TV. Great to see!

i think it is important to say that the open and explicit racism of the president and the vice president isn’t just uncouth or “controversial” but a direct attack on tens of millions of americans and a dereliction of their duty to represent the entire country

It feels like it's been 4 years and it's only been 4 days. 😫

Rescinding the cap on insulin at $35 only makes pharmaceutical richer and everyday Americans, including MAGA voters, seriously poorer. So why does Trump do it? Because all he wants is to destroy anything Biden achieved, no matter how much damage it causes. That what sociopathy looks like.

i’m gonna just watch this at least once a day and i recommend everyone do the same

LIVE NOW: It's just about time for the last podcast of the year! Strap on, it's talk time!
