sorry basically the problem of my life is that i internalized and believed a lot of stuff people said about valuing children and loving your neighbor and living in a society at the exact moment that everyone in power decided all of that shit was fake and gay and not a way to make a living

a still from the 1950s Godzilla film. Godzilla is on the rampage but! they have Judith Butler's head roughly photoshopped onto their body
this opus is for all of you, like me, whose mental image of the Butlerian Jihad is something like this
every time I see the phrase "Butlerian Jihad" I think of Judith Butler on the rampage & I don't actually want to look it up to get what it actually means because I enjoy the image of Judith Butler on the rampage so much
A picture of a simple solution to the situation in Strait of Hormuz where oiltankers would simply hit a trampoline and backflip over to the other side of the strait to avoid the dangers completely.
Saw the best and most realistic solution on reddit:
Iβve been alarmed at how many smart, well-educated professional women in my network are pro-AI and I hope they all see this message

βHeβd never have wanted to go home. He was a real linesman. His name is in the code, in the wind in the rigging and the shutters. Havenβt you ever heard the saying βA manβs not dead while his name is still spokenβ?β

the last gasp of broadcast tv being the Sheldon Cooper Extended Universe is somehow extremely on point in some way I am too exasperated to enumerate at this time
I almost certainly have never heard of any of the βleadersβ of the Target boycott and I donβt actually care what they have to say. Iβm not part of an organized campaign against Target; I just decided not to shop there anymore when they decided to kiss Trumpβs ass. π€·π»
Oh my god, did you hear that guy just sing out of tune? What a fucking idiot. Cβmon yβall. Letβs stand up and walk out on him
a small, clear glass bottle with a cork stopper and old-fashioned twine round the neck. brown label on the bottle says "fucks to give." inside the bottle are many, many (possibly wooden?), all-caps carve-outs of the word "fuck." my bottle isn't full, because i have (literally) given some away.

A headline reading βCamel pageant thrown into chaos after 20 competitors disqualified for using hump-plumping injectablesβ
Yes everything is terrible but letβs not lose sight of the fact that someone has written the Headline to End All Headlines.
(Itβs the right time of year for performance reviews, but I had the calendar invite for 4pm today sitting in my inbox when I logged in. Actually kind of prefer this; I didnβt have time to get all up in my own head about it!)
Working after vacation sucks, but unexpectedly had my annual performance review today and came out of that with a pretty substantial raise, so I guess Iβm not complaining!!
NBC News poll Voters hold negative views of Al. In fact, the only topics less popular in the survey were the Democratic Party and Iran.
Truly a perfect news alert
Black fluffy cat lying completely flattened on the grass with wide tired eyes. Above the cat the text reads: βThis year it feels like a decade could happen at any second, and thatβs a bit exhausting.β

the reason people sometimes act madder at democrats than republicans when republicans do impossibly evil shit is the same reason why, if you hired an exterminator to handle a roach infestation and he showed up to feed and play with them instead, your first instinct wouldnβt be to yell at the roaches
Officially made it home!!
I have Velcro cats attached to me, and have made the executive decision to unpack absolutely nothing and instead immediately start playing Pokopia. π
If youβre roughly my age, itβs wild to reflect on the optimism for the future Americans felt when Obama was elected β young Americans spontaneously took to the streets to celebrate! β and contrast with what we face today. The falloff over the past 18 years is hard to process.
As I said, all the current problems can be rectified, but it will take a large investment of time and money, much of which may not be recouped for a long time (development of charging networks across the western plains and rural areas). This is as big as building the national highway system.
