I love this impossibly much. Even a day late.

The cat just went over to the HomePod mini on my desk, meowed at it, and Siri said "sure here is some music for you" and the cat perched on the window sill listening to Garbage and Elliott Smith.

I just want to know how long this has been going on.

This is truly enraging.

The terrorist who killed 5 people at Club Q boasted during a 2021 bomb threat about his plans to become “the next mass killer.” Knowing this full well, authorities dropped all charges anyway and still let him keep his guns. His records were then sealed to ensure he wouldn't have to face the consequences for his threats to terrorism.

Meanwhile, Tamir Rice played with a toy gun and authorities killed him in 1.7 seconds because they "feared for their lives."

Two Americas.

I feel like all the projects to get a moon base going in the next 5-10 years are going to quickly surface these biological issues space agencies and engineers have been noticing for 50 years without producing any working solutions.

The first moon colony people are going to have a baaaaad time up there.

@louiscouture The alleged #clubq shooter *claims* to be non-binary, via his attorney. I’m not aware of any evidence that he identified that way before the shooting. This strikes me as a legal ploy.

And even if true, it should not make it impossible to charge a hate crime: far from it. There are plenty of self-haters out there.

I just heard someone call Texas the land of gun care and health control; never heard something more true.

So someone at work has started leaving ducks around. So, I’m adding art captions. Because, of course I am. #ducks #GuerillaArt #office
