In 1938, the German Reich invalidated all German Jewish passports.

They must surrender them, after which their ID will mark them as a Jew.

In 2026, the state of Kansas invalidated all correct trans drivers licenses.

They must surrender them, after which their ID will mark them as trans.

My mental health is so much better since I started using social media just for entertainment day-to-day.

I still occasionally look up what's going on in the news, but don't need it thrust upon me 24/7. Especially when there's fuck all you can do about it. And the big stuff finds me quickly anyway.

I understand how it can get to that place having worked in news, being immersed in it for weeks, with something new happening every moment. But the crucial thing with good communication IMO is remembering that people have different context to you.

The average person is not glued to the news.

I find it odd that news sites seem to only report current events as liveblogs now.
I just tried to find out what's going on with US/Middle East right now & I can't find anything that summarises what happened chronologically, or with the POV of someone who hasn't been immersed in it for days.

Having recovered innumerable bits of radio studio tech from tea/coffee/soup spills over the years, I highly advise you let stuff properly dry before checking it’s ok!

The advantage of water over other fluids is that it’s nowhere near as corrosive/icky.

A post on threads from user stephens_bens. It reads 'I'll always remember an interview with Steve Buscemi on Bulleye, Jesse Thorn asked him "As an actor with many decades of varied and outstanding roles across your career, does it ever bother you that one of the things you will most be remembered for is a 3-second gif in which you're wearing a backwards baseball cap and carrying a skateboard?"
And without missing a beat, Buscemi replied "I'm carrying *two* skateboards."
And you know what? He is.'
Below that is a screen cap of Buscemi's famous "fellow kids" moment.
