β€˜Same Ingredients, Different Recipe’ in Proposed U.S. Book Ban House Resolution 7661, introduced on February 24, would withhold federal funds from public classrooms and school libraries alleged to have β€œsexually oriented material” on their shelves.

They're coming for our books again.

Introduced by far-right idiot Mary E. Miller and co-sponsored by 17 GOP congressmen, HR 7661 would use the hammer of federal funds to force schools nationwide to remove books the GOP doesn't like from library shelves.

"There's no such thing as too many books" written on a Bert's blue tote bag.

I'm about to order some new tote bags. There'll be a new message on it.

BUT. Crucial question. Do I do it in the same colour, or a new colour?

The internet famously has opinions, so please, let loose.

THREAD: I got laid off from NYMag/Vulture after 14 years. The family lost 75% of income + medical. Now mzs.press bookstore, once a side project. is do-or-die for Judith & I. I feel weird telling you this because others are doing much worse. But if you could like or share this, we'd be so grateful!

I get asked to show up to book clubs, online and offline. Here is why from now on the answer is always "no." If you think this might have something to do with "AI" ruining yet another thing for everyone, you're absolutely 100% correct.

Mehen is a guardian serpent god whose name
means the "encircler" or "coiler," as he uses his body
to surround what he protects. His form resembles
a Central African rock python, a massive snake that
kills by constriction. Egyptians played a game called
Mehen-first recorded in the Old Kingdom-on
a board shaped like a coiled snake, and its presence
on tomb walls associates it with the afterlife.

If you need something to astound you so you end up staring at the wall contemplating infinity for a couple hours, @quantamagazine.bsky.social got you covered #ScienceSky πŸ§ͺ
I recommend getting astounded and staring into the abyss while contemplating the universe, atleast twice a week.

It's Official: the Cybertruck is More Explosive than the Ford Pinto - FuelArc News We now have a full year of data for the Cybertruck, and a strange preponderance of headlines about Cybertrucks exploding into flames, including several fatalities. That’s more than enough data to comp...

Analysis of crash data shows that you're 17 times more likely to die in a vehicle fire if you buy Elon Musk's Tesla Cyber truck than if you had bought a Ford Pinto, the 1970s era car infamous for gas tank explosions in rear end collisions.

Last night, I blocked the hooman at the stairwell landing. And this morning, I blocked Pan against the door during his nap. No one escapes my house without giving me scritches or acknowledging my authority!

Hooman, you can’t sit down to breakfast without having at least one of us trap your feet. You’re not going anywhere without our permission!

Pet peeve which probably is due to me being an old:

When a reel or short video is just someone making faces or panning the room and all of the actual information is in the caption.

If the video is not really part of the content, I'm irritated that you didn't just put it into writing.

(Also 12% of Americans report taking GLP-1s. 88% are not. Also also GLP-1s are only "killing exercise" if you think the sole purpose of movement is to lose weight, when that's one thing it *does not* reliably accomplish. Also also also, there are like 20 bigger issues "killing restaurants.")
