finance guys on twitter are like "can't believe zohran hired lina khan. she wants to make it illegal to bundle memecoin futures into junk stocks and sell them to public worker pension plans. the public won't stand for it."

Mike Johnson: ‘My Christian Faith Is More About Not Jacking Off Than Feeding The Poor’ — theonion.com/mike-johnson...

In her new book, legal scholar Lisa Graves walks through all the ways that Chief Justice John Roberts "betrayed" Americans and "delegitimized the once-trusted institution" — all for President Donald Trump.

we gotta start being meaner to people who refuse to do one second of research on things that can be factually verified, and just come online and lie. "if i recall correctly" you don't. i don't care if you had good intentions or meant well, you just lied. why are you lying

They say “woke mind virus” when they mean empathy.

I think everyone should get to know the west African term “wahala”.

It generally means “chaos”, “confusion”, or “drama”. A clusterfuck.

I’ve been on a mission for years to use it more regularly in my work.

Because—- *gestures at everything*

See wahala?!???

The Irish phrase is codladh grifín, "sleep tingling". This is the only context in which the word "grifín" (tingling) occurs! Though other words for tingling do exist...

Other phrases I’ve come across about pins and needles (mostly from the creative minds of small children)…

7. I have fizzy boots on
6. My arm has gone sparkly
5. I have thorns and prickles
4. I have crumbles in my foot
3. I have sprinkles in my toes
2. My foot went dizzy
1. I’ve got pins and weasels

A lovely Icelandic term for pins and needles (tingling after your foot goes numb) is stjörnur í skónum, or “stars in your shoes.” A Yoruba version is pajapaja (“kill dog kill dog”). And the best one I’ve heard in German (uttered by a friend’s child) was mein Fuß glitzert. It means “my foot twinkles”

@mikeisraetel.bsky.social Curious word-nerd here: Why is 'eccentric' pronounced ek-sen-trik in every context except weight training, where it's pronounced ee-sen-trik? Did Arnold just mispronounce it bc his English wasn't v good yet and then everyone just went along bc, well, he's fuckin Arnold?
