Every interview with this guy comes off like he's *hoping* to be beaten to death by an angry mob.

Instead of 24 oz every time I remember. Which, I know, is not how hydration works, but I keep forgetting to drink.

Wegovy is wrecking me in ways that Ozempic never did, and I don't know why.

I'm not at a high enough dose for the food noise to go away, but damn if the whole "one extra bite will wreck your night" has kicked in hard.

On the positive, this is forcing me to drink smaller amounts throughout the day.

I have never returned a book that wasn't free (I returned a bunch of free cookbooks and "text books" that were cluttering up my collection). Even when I stepped away from the Kindle ecosystem, I downloaded those books. Yeah, broke DRM, but I don't pirate, I just needed to get them elsewhere.

Fuck all the way off with this nonsense.

The reason they have fallen off is BECAUSE THEIR INSTITUTIONS USED POLICE VIOLENCE, SANCTIONS AND EXPULSIONS and are still doing so.

A google maps view of the area around the Strait of Hormuz, with crude markup showing the 4 steps to successfully clearing the strait:

1. Build up speed
2. Hit Trampoline
3. Cool backflip
4. Nail the landing

The boat is illustrated using a clip art yacht, and the trampoline is also just kind of floating there.

@worldofwarcraft.blizzard.com Bonus rolls are not going to mitigate the loot drama of your broken need/greed system

Just give us back personal loot. I am tired of micromanaging your system that simply does not work, and I am tired of cleaning up after your mess when personal loot solves the problem

DISTRACTIONS DON’T WORK.

COVERUPS WON’T WORK.

NOT EVEN WAR.

RELEASE THE EPSTEIN FILES.

Tweet from Israeli Defense Minister Israel Katz:
Justice has been done.

I welcome the decision of the Chief Military Prosecutor, Major General Itai Ofir, to close the Sde Teiman cases against IDF soldiers and to cancel the indictment against them.

This trial was born in sin by the previous Military Advocate General, using a blood libel against IDF soldiers and criminal investigation methods, and I am glad that justice has been done and the trial has been canceled.

The role of the IDF's legal system is to protect and safeguard IDF soldiers who engage heroically in war against cruel monsters, and not the rights of the terrorists of Hamas.

I am convinced that the decision will lead to a new path.

The Defense Minister of Israel says it was "blood libel" to go after Israeli soldiers caught on camera raping a Palestinian.

Reviews matter. I was going to impulse-buy The Tangled Tree by David Quammen, until I read the review. There can be no rehabilitation for monsters, no matter what contributions to science they offer.

So, the easier path here is to let the vote fail. So what if there is a "blue wave" These MFers are rich, they get a pension for the rest of their lives, and they don't have to worry about the Toxic Oranger.

Go out in a blaze of glory, Republicans.

It never ceases to amaze me that replicas of such charming artifacts are not made, and sold.

I'd buy and wear this.

This is why I ignore the "both sides are bad, why bother?"

Look, I want a progressive future. We have a chance against neoliberals. We don't against MAGA.

If you can't vote for, and you dislike voting "lesser evil," then vote FOR HARM MITIGATION. But don't call yourself an ally if you sit this out

I would never drive a car with only touch screen. touch screens should have nothing to do with the actual operation of a 2,000+ lb. vehicle.

Whistleblower claims ex-DOGE member says he took Social Security data to new job The Social Security inspector general’s office is investigating allegations that the former DOGE engineer took sensitive data on a thumb drive in a major potential security breach, said people familia...

Events so far:

Whistleblower @chuckborges.bsky.social claims DOGE kids illegally copied your Social Security data

Tech bros at SSA deny it

Then they admit it

Another whistleblower claims DOGE kid took the data to a new job at a private company

Tech bros at SSA deny it

What's next?

Or, maybe you're a level 1 acquaintance and I kinda want to be alone in my headspace with a game, and I will tell you when I want company; or I will provide a schedule of appropriate social engagement opportunities.

🚨🚨🚨Social Security is investigating a former DOGE employee for accessing highly sensitive agency databases and sharing the information with a private employer. If proven true, this would constitute an unprecedented breach of security protocols that could expose data of tens of millions of Americans.

The biggest threat to democracy. Citizens United. Every senator and representative spends 90% of their time begging for money. Thats why nothing gets done EVER!
