Shouting into the void, dick jokes, cats, harm reduction, and fiber crafts in varying proportions.
I still remember my incredibly tough, crusty old home visiting patient who described me as “the white girl who’s really quiet and always trying to help me.” That last part was HARD EARNED.
What is the best compliment you ever received? Putting aside whether or not you believed it.

I am not at all optimistic about where we are at this moment but I do not yet think the United States of America is down bad enough for an Elizabeth Holmes Redemption Arc to be be feasible. It's obviously not great, but she's one of the very last Slimers out of the Ghostbusters containment tank.

It's not in this article but the government asserts that the sandwich was thrown at "point blank range", which implies subway sandwiches have defined effective weapon ranges of varying lethality, and I would like to see the government's chart of these ranges.

Normalise calling people who are obsessed with bringing trans people up in every argument “weirdos” and “perverts” instead of debating them

"This fucking sucks" and "all is lost" are two different sentences.

Don't say the second when you mean the first.

i think if you ride public transit enough you learn that most weird behavior is not dangerous, and conversely i think driving a car teaches you that everyone is trying to kill you at all times

it's very hard to distinguish between Trump's cognitive decline and his cognitive never-having-inclined

"normies do not care about this thing and so it is no use raising a stink" is imho just an excuse for not doing politics, which is the job of making normies care about something

To the over enthusiastic clean freak at work

You have thrown out
My black beans
From the fridge
In the office

Those were leftovers
For my lunch
Today
You heinous bitch

Unforgivable
They were still good!
Studded with sweet potatoes
And chilis in adobo

Language is funny. I can look at a regular container of almond milk and think “oh, ok, stuff made of pressed almonds,” but I see this and immediately need to know where the cashews’ little nipples are.

Haha, the infrastructure is so fucked here that being a conspicuously white lady on foot made this passerby assume I’m a sex worker in need of outreach.

Last semester, I turned in a paper for grad school that felt so incoherent that I was shocked to get an A. I thought of that paper today while listening to @ifbookspod.bsky.social, because compared to Thomas Chatterton Williams it was basically Shakespeare.

“I gave my life to Christ in the Cracker Barrel parking lot” sounds like the filthiest euphemism I have ever heard.

Things I actually said today: when you become a hospital manager RFK visits you in the night and gives you a brain worm to tell you that all that matters is “when is this patient discharging?”

Andrew Cuomo gets publicly humiliated. Bill Clinton learns his endorsement is worth less than dogshit. What a great time to be a hater. A golden age.

We need to build some real social stigma around being afraid of cities. You don't have to like them or live there, but a politics built this strongly around watching TV and going "ewww" is embarrassing, and people should be embarrassed by it. It's like "fear of werewolves" being your top issue.

BREAKING:

The opinion of a random person you just encountered online is not, in fact, the universally embraced belief of "the Left" or "Liberals" or whoever else you'd like to paint with a broad brush.

More as this story develops.
