Politicians love to talk about "kids safety" until you ask them to do something that would actually keep kids safe like fund housing, healthcare, education, outdoor spaces, arts programs, etc.

That's because most of them use "safety" as a euphemism for surveillance, control and domination.

Humans are persistence predators. We're built to follow prey at a comfortable pace until they wear themselves out and cannot run anymore. The human body is designed to move, to keep moving, to *almost never stop moving*.

Standing still is an enormous strain on muscles meant for active motion.

So fun fact Spanish doesn't have a direct translation of the verb "to nurse" so when Scorpia asks if she needs to be "tenderly nursed back to health" she asks "Do you need to be tenderly breastfed until you heal?"

“AI is clearly sticking around so you have to get used to it” wrong. I don’t have to get used to shit. I am a practiced hater and I can keep this going for decades if I am required to

This afternoon I was putting off more more urgent tasks by *doing my quickbooks accounting* which is generally the chore of absolute last resort so that's how far gone things are, I guess

Senator Kelly is correct.

Plus a Public Service Announcement:

KEY section of Department of Defense's Law of War Manual is 18.3.2.1.

The VERY rule on the "requirement" to refuse illegal orders gives as its paradigmatic example of what is "clearly illegal:
"orders to fire upon the shipwrecked."

They’re simultaneously arguing that soldiers have to follow all orders from the president, legal or not, but they get to ignore orders from a federal judge if they feel they’re not legal.
KARL: Did you know about the judge's order when you issued your order for the planes to continue?

KRISTI NOEM: This is an activist judge. We comply with all federal orders that are lawful and binding.

Computer, please summarize everything PG Wodehouse ever wrote in ten seconds
rich dudes got freakier after butlers fell out of fashion, like say what you will about having domestic servants but clearly it was some sort of moderating force on old rich dudes having a fancy man follow you around saying shit like "oh dear sir, that wouldn't be very becoming"

This is wonderful news, and also means it’s time for me to beat the drum I always do when HPV vaccines make the news:

They are not only for women! HPV also causes penile, anal, and head and neck cancers. The latter are particularly deadly. Please vaccinate ALL your children.
Australia recorded ZERO cases of cervical cancer in women under 25 for the first time since they started tracking the cancer in the 80s.

This is the power of vaccines.

The HPV vaccine is extremely effective at preventing cancer.

Viruses can be oncogenic. Get your vaccines and protect yourself!
newsGP - Australia set for world-first cervical cancer elimination
Vaccination programs have played a key role, and GPs remain ‘instrumental’ in boosting screening rates to reach the 2035 target.

Before recently, I had honestly never seriously considered rigging plates as a potential failure point. I figured, it's metal, it's strong, whatever 🤷‍♀️

I learned so much touring subspace_designs in Portland!

To be unhinged and pathetically intense about your fun little obsessions and yearnings is actually very freeing and good for you.

Nun habit ➡️ devil horns while self-suspending...a lot of practice and troubleshooting and elastic and hair clips and even some two-part epoxy was involved 🙃

Huge thank you to @mxbliss.bsky.social for having me perform as part of the Portland F3tish Ball! It was a blast!
