Last toot on this shit I promise (kinda)

All the people saying fox viewers wouldn’t believe it if they had to air an apology miss the point by a mile.

I want Carlson and Hannity and Ingraham and the rest to be forced to say “I lied”

I want the words like ash in their mouths

I want the twisted facial expressions of impotent rage

I want them humiliated and helplessly angry

And I want the gifs on repeat till the end of the internet

Good morning, a lovely cuddly cutie for today. Have a nice day.
As Pema Chödrön would likely say, let's enjoy the present moment and be grateful for it, as it is the key to achieving inner peace and happiness.

@davep Oh yeah. Those were the days. Remember smoking on a plane? I do. 🤣 Smoking on trains too. It was kind of insane when you think about everywhere we could actually smoke. And think about this: People used to smoke in the waiting room in hospitals. 🤣 I mean, c'mon!

BREAKING: Congress just reintroduced the dangerous #EarnItAct, an internet surveillance bill that makes all of us less safe by attacking online encryption. We’ve killed this bill 💀twice 💀, and we’re going to do it again at noearnitact.org/

Now, here’s a refresher:

@natharari @davep The old (BBC?) radio plays are worth a listen, too for another take on the books. They should be available somewhere out there (*waves hands vaguely towards the interwebs*).

@natharari I may have to do the books because I’m liking the themes and ideas in the show.

Happy birthday, TESS! 🥳

We’re excited to keep working together with you to further exoplanet science 🪐

I finally fixed my blog on Github. It was down for something like three months or more. I just didn't have the time to fix it. I had this stupid git setup with two directories and repos and it just didn't make sense. Of course, when I tried to fix it so that it was only one directory/repo, it messed everything up and I just stopped for a while in frustration.

I finally sat down and rebuilt it from scratch (the repo). Should work now. Glad to have gotten that done.

@timesunion On today's @bulwarkonline podcast, @SykesCharlie and I discussed tragedies like this one.

Shortcuts on Mac continues to look like it was written by developers who have never used a Mac.

ContraPoints has her first new video out in ten months, and I couldn't be happier. It's about "The Witch Trials" which covers the J.K. Rowling story which was done recently in podcast form. Natalie was featured in the podcast.

Tim Miller from @bulwarkonline (The Bulwark) has a fantastic interview with Tennessee House Rep. Gloria Johnson about what happened there in the last few weeks. Also, she's been there for a while. It's not just what's happened in the last few weeks, but what has been happening for a long while.

I remember in the 90s, a lot of movies and shows were showing us "The New South". The non-racist South. The South that had "changed". All of that "nastiness" and "unpleasantness" was in the past, as they would have had us believe. It was "forgotten history" - pay it no heed.

Well, as it turns out, not so much. Not by a long shot.

A lot of people don't appear to mind that TikTok is subject to Chinese Communist Party laws concerning the retaining of all of that juicy data they collect on everyone around the world.

Yet another story to remind us about just whom we are talking about:

Do you /really/ want to give your data to them? Seriously?
