My accidental emotional support dog just rolled over and glared at me when I stopped scrolling to see what Steven miller had said. Ok, dog. Ok. Back to the science feeds.

When someone says β€žScientists do not want you to knowβ€œ you can dismiss everything from there on. Scientists want you to know. They are desperate that you know. They can’t shut up about what they found out and want you to know.

If our people can't be a priority, what is a priority?

Oh right, it's the economy, stupid.

Three giant moths with glowing eyes approaching a human holding a flashlight. The moon rises behind them. A guy named Ted safely rides an ATV away from them. The text reads: Ted wasn't sure how he ended up at the Visiting of the moths, but he was sure glad he wore the proper gear: gloves, goggles, boots, long-sleeve shirt, pants and a helmet.

It's always "trying to bring about the rapture" and never the part of the bible about eliminating all debts.

If they were really serious about biblical teachings all loans (including credit card debt) would be wiped at the end of seven years

Due to Nazis
I had to walk away from the words I stacked to the stars.
But I found a good medium, with less ghosts
Where I can be a patron of more creative things

Due to Nazis
My music now comes unprompted,
A mix tape of emotions pulled from Pandora’s Box
Promising no year-end wrap on these years that never end.

Due to Nazis
I learned to expect more or pay nothing.
I couldn’t find my joy in those false color rainbows,
when morality became a moving target.

My stickers no longer come with hot sauce.
That would make me an ass by association
Even if it might taste good for a single moment.

Due to Nazis
I learned how not to hold my thumb
If a promise made must become a promise kept
(May it never come to that)

Ban the fucking polymarkets. Betting on death. Betting on war while Incentivizing death and war. Shaping foreign/domestic policy by rewarding the rich people already in the know and encouraging them to make decisions that destroy the world while padding their pockets. Burn it down.

I do recommend a ginger candy chaser, but this main course was kind of crap.

Paxlovid and coffee do not taste good together.

And WWIII is a terrible side dish to this breakfast.
