They like cops so much that all we’re getting is cops. No roads, no bridges, no school funding, no culture money, just a bouquet of different types of cops

debating whether to try getting my mom onto Bluesky. she's got a decent political orientation, but needs radicalization. need to get her away from the facebook liberals pushing Newsom, y'know?

I mean, as far as I knew I was a nice straight cis boy when Dark Science started, so who can say
I've had folks asking if you have to be queer to read Dark Science. Of course not, it's a story for everybody!

However reading it will probably make you queer, so keep an eye out for that.
I don't know if there's a name for the yuri archetype of "clueless, awkward nerd/goblin who can turn into a smokeshow under random conditions" but it's my favorite.

made fermented garlic paste over the summer. finally registered my Breadwinners yesterday so now I'm doing science to my sourdough starters. and today I—again, finally—initiated a nukadoko. you can take the girl out of the microbiology lab…

in fifty years they're gonna teach this in medical and psychology classes as an example of doctors torturing children in an attempt to justify backwards beliefs
this is just actually evil. an indictment on the entirety of the uk's medical ethics. i wish i could say on this website what these researchers deserve

I was working on my little for-funsies phylogeny project when I got really discouraged by fish

"Actinopterygii! okay, drill down to Neopterygii… Teleostei… Euteleostei… Neoteleostei… drill allll the way down to Percomorpha! almost done! how many percomorphs could there be?"

reader, fuckin *lots*

apparently Netflix is removing "Groundhog Day" after January 31st, which is just wrong

finally watched "Hair" last night. a lot grimmer and less risqué than I had been led to believe

Good summary of “don’t give him what he wants” from relatively comfortable white liberals.

I agree that we ought to use persuasion to bring people nearer to our political purposes; I think that making every single Republican a social and professional pariah for the rest of their lives would be very persuasive when it comes to people weighing the cost/benefit of aligning with fascism.

what is the daylight between "the horrors are bait" and "the horrors are a distraction"?

sometimes there's an album you've listened to many times over 20 years or so, but it's been a while, so you pull it out for a listen with fresh ears, and you can't help but say to yourself, "wait a fucking minute that's Orson Welles"

Abolish ICE
Abolish the Department of Homeland Security
At least four videos show what really happened when ICE shot a woman in Minneapolis on Wednesday. DHS has established itself as an agency that cannot be trusted to live in or present reality.

still tickled by how, when I went whale watching late November, they gave out free ginger chews to help ameliorate seasickness. I could only think of Stubb's ranting over "ginger-jub"

seeing certain politicians try "um actually invading Venezuela is not very America First of you sir" and

1) do not legitimize "America First," even as an attempted gotcha

2) it is, in fact, very "America First" to expand the empire by toppling a foreign government and "managing" their resources
