I remembered the indecipherable ancient Sumerian bar joke (a dog walks into a bar and says "I can't see anything. I guess I'll open this one") and decided to read some of the other proverbs and jokes from the same collection and discovered that Sumer also had the original "No take! Only throw!" meme

Also, enduring thanks to the @bsky.app team for the nuclear block.* One of the greatest features of any social media site ever.
* If you block someone, all of their posts disappear from your timeline and all of your posts disappear from their timeline, vastly decreasing targeted harassment.

It also makes me think about this map, from the data that Where's George was able to generate. It shows the borders across which money mostly doesn't travel, and is a pretty good map of our broad economic and cultural divide. The darker the line, the stronger the border.

patreon continually getting worse frustrates me greatly because it's literally a money printing middle-man service where all you've gotta do is keep the lights on and comply with banking laws, but instead they hoover up venture capital just to flail endlessly and make things worse for their users.

WTF. The electric company in Texas doesn't have a map of outages so people have been using the Whataburger App to figure out who lost power. This is like when Homer was using the Krusty Burger map when they got lost at sea.

I mostly trust Pew. They have written a lot about how it's getting harder and harder to survey/poll if you are scrupulous.
Most polling orgs aren't what I'd call scrupulous.

I looked over the actual report and yeah, this is very concerning. There is no safe exposure level to lead. The authors note it's not known how much gets absorbed into the body via tampon use because that research has never been done. It's maddening how research on women's health is lacking.
