How to kill social scientific research AND marketing research
How to kill social scientific research AND marketing research
My lawyer brain is stuck on the provision that allowing anthropomorphic characters is contingent on their knee orientation.
Some dude at Visa is like βthe fur is fine, and I agree Disneyβs Maid Marian was hot, but knees are sacrosanct. The line must be drawn here, this far, no furtherβ
This is just astonishingly great reporting.
All of the crises the White House has claimed over the last 14 months were planned in advance. All of them.
And however much contempt you have for media outlets who reverently relayed Trump's claim to have no relation to Project 2025, it isn't enough.

βHeyβ came before βhi,β and βhi' came before βhello.β
βHiβ is most likely a variant of βhey.β
βHelloβ is not related to either.
Goodbye.

what must be done
Even if you arenβt disabled by illness or injury, you eventually will be by aging.
With old age, you wonβt be able to climb stairs easily, walk long distances, see well, hear well, drive everywhere, or bathe standing up.
Disability accommodation helps everyone at some point.

They say this because they are soft, weak men who do not think they can be touched.
In 2016, LAPD SWAT officer Gabriel Gaxiola was arrested for DUI while driving a department-issued SWAT vehicle. Even had an open beer.
In 2022, he was arrested again after crashing his car while drunk. He is still an LAPD officer.

Let's talk polio
Anyone wanna talk about municipal public camping ban ordinances? Those bug me too, but not as much.
OK. I'd watched Picard s01 back in the day & found it tolerable. & hey, ST series always get better right?
6 episodes into s02, I do not feel well. Tried to embrace the masochism of grinding through it. But I cannot. No more. I must end this. I think there's something wrong with my liver.
I live with a rare genetic disease called Partial Trisomy 8q Duplication Syndrome. Few people know about it, but it shapes my life every day. #RareDisease #DisabilityAdvocacy
I also spoke with today's administration of the United States of America. So far, we have not received licenses.

Just days ago, Trump and the U.S. administration asked Ukraine to help intercept Iranian drones and defend U.S. bases with weapons developed through Ukrainian blood and battlefield experience.
And now Trump has allowed those who are killing Ukrainians to rebuild their cash reserves.

My mentions have folks calling Talarico a "fascist" and assuring me that black Texans would never ever vote for anyone who uses Christian language.
For the good of democracy, I'm begging some of you to take a long break from social media. It's not helping you and you're definitely not helping us.
If the Dems who win in the 2026 midterms get squeamish about prosecuting this administration, we'll need to elect a bunch of new people running on Nuremberg shit for 2028. This isn't a joke. It's the law. It's justice. Biden let Trump back in the WH and this happened because Joe didn't do his job
Nixon might have survived but for Alexander Butterfieldβs acknowledgment of the secret taping system. It began a yearlong fight for the release of the tapes that ultimately doomed the pathological liar.
Just saying, maybe people shouldn't take seriously the guy who was fined by the FTC for setting up a website where he encouraged people to upload nonconsensual nude images, and then set up a fake lawyer you could pay $500 to get those images "taken down."
He might not be on the up and up.
