"...I’d always had the feeling that he was somebody worth following. I had thought about this a bit, in recent days spent running: if leading is a skill, then so is following. I’ve been trying to learn how to follow. This, though, just running away. Nothing there." --Jake Stimmel

I don’t even really do sports, but when the #eagles do *this* it’s best I’m alone. I can’t even watch them anymore because the crazy is real, I have to listen on the radio, then go back and watch the clip.

The Todd Snider story is a common snapshot of ineptitude. #SLC cops saying he busted his own head and lied, hospitals won’t treat him because he looks homeless and he’s begging (indelicately) for help. Then he dies from sepsis and they want to make it sound like there was nothing they could’ve done.

I walked in a #Target today because I had money on an old gift card to spend, and was going to hit up some toiletries. The place is an absolute dump. It was like a rummage sale. Not very crowded but all jumbled and simply a mess. This place is going down.

I always squat and eat McDonald's next to an open shitmobile in an empty parking lot. Perfectly normal synthetic experience.

You can decide whether the open shitmobile is Elon Musk or the cybertruck—or both

I had to google a word from Lizza's Part II and after learning what it meant, microwaved my coffee on Nuclear and drank it in order to sear the flesh in my mouth.

I had a problem refilling a vital prescription for a medication, the ONLY known Rx that works for a debilitating condition. I was flustered and upset and decided to have a chatbot write me a script with magic words for my specific pharmacy provider. I read it word for word--it cleared it instantly.

There are few academic institutions that I would be proud to be associated with at this time. A whole lot of “quiet piggy” eerily emanating from the weeping walls of higher ed.

I want to very gently say something, and I hope nobody will be mad: If somebody on the internet says something that is NOT about politics and NOT about how terrible everything is, it’s a kindness not to reflexively make a comment (in jest or not) that brings it back to those things.

Just a reminder that Trump had his attorney general preempt the Mueller Report with a self-serving “summary” and the media ran with it and it defined everything that came after.

Something to remember as we wait for a probably doctored and scrubbed “Epstein Files” report.

This story does not bother to acknowledge how black and queer people brought this company to its knees. Their plan to revive sales does not address it. This place was a fun, vibrant, and DIVERSE destination. If they can’t clarify their errors even in the throes of their own demise, good night.

I swear to god. The problem with Trump isn’t his weight or whether he had a gay encounter. The problem is that he’s a fascist, corrupt criminal.

Get it together, people. If you’re going to protect people and form coalitions you have to do better and show you are an ally.

I do think social media of many forms has worn itself down. I logged onto FB again after 9 months or so because in a rural area, businesses publish only there. It’s like a huge rolling obituary.

First I had to donate all my Fetterman stuff, then throw the Biden gear in the basement, and now that cool bsky t-shirt. This place is a huge disappointment.
Glad BlueSky did this. When I saw Patton Oswalt saying Megyn Kelly should be fed into a woodchipper feet first for defending raping children based on what age she thinks is okay, I thought, "yes, comedian Patton Oswalt is going to, in real life, feed Megyn Kelly into a woodchipper feet first."

Listen to this Border Patrol agent cry about how he's going to be DOXXED after being arrested for drunkenly barging into a woman's restroom with a loaded gun, demanding a date from the woman inside, and then punching the arresting officers.
