I built a social media posting app from scratch. Testing to see if this actually works! I'm posting from my own app!

Gaze long into the abyss, and the abyss will gaze also into you. And offer toe beans.

This is a fantastic litmus test

I was a super volunteer for Bernie back in 2016, and even my pasty marshmallow-ass could tell that:

1) he did NOT have this skill; and

2) it was a major, MAJOR problem

In retrospect, I'd say that may've been both his campaigns' achilles heel.

I dunno why it’s taken me over a year into potty training to think of this but you can just buy the dual seats that places like soft play have and install them at home

It was like I had forgotten. How un-special church was. How universal music is. My first mosh pit, the resounding dopamine high, the pathetic attempt by Christianity to claim it all for itself. It was music that had been my place of worship. Not god. I had been trying to worship my very humanity, celebrate the joy of being fucking alive.

This person said I looked like a queer witch and told me to pick a poem from her clam necklace and said it would either be porn or religious trauma and I got religious trauma RIP

as somebody who planned two unmedicated births and ended up having two medicated births, the only person in the room who gets a goddamned say is the person giving birth and it’s really good to make sure everyone involved is extremely clear on that before anyone gets pregnant

As Iranians are being bombed, their government has cut off their internet and airs televised threats. Does this sound like a government that cares for its people? (No, that doesn’t mean war is good. That’s a different point that I am not making)

Pickles literally make me vomit, so I'm not even going to click on that so I can spend less time pondering it as a concept.

If any further proof is needed that the 2016 and 2024 elections were not about "economic anxiety," recall that MAGAts remain largely devoted to him despite their own economic plight resulting from his policies.

MAGA delusion leads to genAI videos his admin makes to celebrate his "wins."

Ah, yes, the famously humanitarian frameworks of the IGRC, who mere weeks ago orchestrated the mass killings of over 35,000 protesters in two days and whose decades of political, cultural, and economic control have brought Iran to the brink of collapse in all three.

You can enjoy them however you like. I'll be in a different room so I can enjoy my m&ms without the experience being permeated by the stench of olives.

Gonna have another convo with the great @kavehmd.bsky.social on all things Iran tomorrow. What are you curious about? What would you like to hear more about from two diaspora Iranians?

As I understand it, SARS-CoV-2 causes immune dysregulation, so your mild symptoms are a sign that your entire immune system does not recognize the virus as a threat and respond accordingly. Your innate immune system causes hyperinflammation, but your B and T cells don't mount a strong response.

Reminder, too, that with COVID particularly, symptoms β‰  sequelaβ€”that is, your symptoms don't accurately reflect systemic damage from the virus. There were studies published early in 2020 that showed that autopsies of asymptomatic infection had the same cardiovascular damage as severe infection.

We've been protecting him since he was promoting DLC policies as the chief strategist of the Clinton administration, policies that were critical to making the Democratic party *collaborators* with this administration instead of a strong opposition.

Protecting him helped shape the mess we're in.
