Does anyone understand why US car companies went hard on gigantic EVs? It seems like a market that is less interested in the product and a problem that is harder to solve. I assume it has something to do with price point?

Post chemo I had some weird mild bruising develop under my fingernails but it seemed to be clearing up, but this morning I suddenly had more and started to have a health anxiety freak-out but then it turned out it was blueberry juice from making Orin’s oatmeal.

Has anyone lived in their town long enough that they’re constantly saying sentences like “Yknow the new coffee shop that used to be the dispensary and was the bead shop before, next door to the place that was the bike repair place and became the Asian food market and is now the Jimmy John’s.”

Gaaahtcha. Sequential vs seasonal? But there are no seasonally deciduous lycophytes. Also, can I trouble you for some terms to help me in my googling? To me deciduous always means seasonal…is there a special word for that?

Botanists of BlueSky...I'm like 99% sure that deciduousness never evolved in lycophytes but please let me know if I am wrong! It would be very cool if it did!

Before right now you didn’t notice how often you blink. Your blinks were invisible. But now they aren’t and I made that happen.

Today I saw a muscle guy video on tiktok and he literally said, “who wouldn’t want to have skin that looks like a hard cock” and I was like, “I think lots of people.” Then 3 videos later he was in the hospital with a heart attack induced by his steroids and it was really quite a roller coaster.

If you let people who want to be cruel /pay/ to be cruel, you cannot have productive cultural creation. Elon needed a chisel and he brought out sledge hammers.

I always imagine that, when sometime goes viral, you’re going to get every possible human response. That helps me understand that most of what is awful is outliers. But Twitter Blue selects for people who are more awful on average and brings them to the top. A true and deep failure.

I had some legitimately useful conversations that I think helped people be less angry, but most people are so mad they had to be instant-blocked, and some hit me with gore photos.

People posted suicide gore! I don’t know what I was expecting. Also, some were happy to let me know they are glad I have cancer and it is in fact /turbo cancer/ and it was caused by the vaccine.

Did you know that if you take steroids as part of your cancer treatment and then you go on Twitter, feeling invincible, to intentionally bait Twitter Blue trolls to respond to you so that you can block them it will work way better than you intended and it will be very sad and upsetting?
