It really is grotesque that we have to tolerate, and accept as fellow citizens, these despicable subnormal freaks who delight in evil and threaten everything that makes America great with their sick fantasies. On the other hand honestly the furries can be kind of irritating too.

You could simplify down to “F*cked Up Science Shit: Botany Edition” and “Weirdest Shit I Ever Saw Through a Telescope” types of titles but the science track room is always overflowing already :-P

There has never been a vehicle I've wanted less than the Cybertruck and this piece goes a long way to explaining why. (We almost got Krissy a Ford F-150 Lightning a couple of years ago and decided against it for reasons)

This is basically how I feel. Concerns about Biden are a valid news story; the breathless coverage is not valid if it is completely blocking out the fact that an adjudicated rapist and convicted felon with a wildly unpopular agenda is the guy on the other ticket. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

There was lead in EVERY tampon they tested.
There was less lead in organic tampons, but those had higher concentrations of arsenic.
Also fun: It's 2024. This is the first ever study testing metals in tampons. Great. 🙃

My mother woke up feeling ill. The dog was very concerned. After my mom sat down in her recliner, the dog went to his toy box, carefully picked out a plush toy, and brought it to my mom. He thought it would make her feel better. It was so cute! 🥰

Some of y'all need to eat grass. Not just touch it, eat it. I know you can't digest it. I think it would be good to spend a couple days in the bathroom wondering why you're like this.

update: caught the beetle in a cup. Took it outside and dumped it in the backyard in the dark. Came back in. Maple (our smarter dog) came back in 2 seconds after me, licking his lips. REALLY hope he didn't eat the beetle because I accidentally dumped it on his head or something :-/

So uh... anybody with a bigger megaphone than me want to help a butch out? The Gilbert Baker Foundation & CMG are asking a settlement from us for referring to the Gilbert Baker flag/original color scheme as the "Gilbert Baker flag" of twice what we've ever made from anything with those colors.

Just stumbled on this Anti-Slavery Constitutional Amendment Picture, ca. 1865. Thought today was a great day to share an image of white men abolishing slavery arranged in a shape Georgia O'Keefe would recognize.
Happy 4th! Burn the white supremacist heteropatriarchy!

Found yet another site with AI-created summaries for my books; those summaries are both inaccurate and hopelessly bland. Please, folks, if you have kids of book report age, tell them from me that these summary sites are just complete bullshit. Don't trust them and don't copy their blandness.
