Happy National Pickle Day to all who celebrate. One day, maybe humanity will be mature enough to handle a pickle emoji.

The word “marijuana” is fine to use, and “cannabis” isn’t a necessarily more progressive word choice
What's your most niche and unimportant crusade?
Mine is that I use the symbol "var" (as scientific standards bodies indicate) for reactive power instead of "VAR" (most common) or something weird like "Var" or worse, "VAr".
I'll admit it does feel a bit odd to put "Mvar" next to "MW" and "MVA". 🔌💡

Any policy arena, folks!
Not enough John Braithwaite on BlueSky yet, so I will carry the mantle of spreading his good news. Here's another "basic assumption" pyramid, for almost any policy arena (criminal law, securities regs, cannabis, schools, etc). Work your way up the pyramid, always.

I think the Internet goes too quickly to the vulgar Freudian option, you miss out on stuff doing that. I think the writer wanted to make her look cool, not hook up with her. The fact that this is what that attempt was makes it all the funnier.

alright let’s get something more pleasant going. what two books would you leave out on your coffee table so a reporter can mention you have them. doesn’t matter if you’ve read them. for me it’s Pale Fire (which I did read) and Ulysses (got like 15% of the way in)

I miss the Herbie Butch in MPLS so much, there are veg bkfst sausages out there now that are simply great
vegan breakfast sausage is good enough now that we should get rid of the regular stuff
"my least woke opinion is---"
That's enough. We've had enough people indulging in the "thrill of a little conservatism", as a treat. Of considering reactionary thought to be a salacious and taboo in a world descending into reactionary mania.
Give me your MOST woke opinions. We're bringing it back.

downwardly mobile educated alienated elite-adjacents clearly are a large part of the contemporary american left's constituency, but it's such a stupid thing to have a complex about or considering particularly damming. read like any history book ever about who starts political movements.

I have worked multiple jobs at a five-star resort, including caddie and bartender. Please do not tell me that the average business executive is normal.
