they’re not gonna leave, they’ll whine and bitch and moan and eventually this will raise more money than expected because nowhere they go is actually like the place they’re leaving
Billionaires are considering cutting or reducing their ties to California by the end of the year because of a proposed ballot measure that could tax the state’s wealthiest residents.

It’s uncertain whether the proposal will reach the statewide ballot in November, but some billionaires like Peter Thiel and Larry Page may be unwilling to take the risk.

RFK Jr is directly responsible for the deaths of 83 children in American Samoa from measles because he told them to stop vaccinating. Now, he's trying to kill trans kids. He's a fucking psychopath.
HHS is trying to force Seattle Children's into doing a Sophie's choice of abandoning trans youth or see kids with cancer or other serious illness have their coverage and care disrupted. That's what this is about.

Hopefully, the courts put a quick stop to this like the subpoenas.

Someone said that Skeletor should have done the moral at the end of the He-Man/She-Ra Christmas Special, and that got me thinking — why didn't they ever ask him to do the moral?

STILL no trans people or drag queens implicated in the Epstein Files.

Plenty of TERFs though.

It’s almost as though every “gender-critical” transphobe is trying to protect cis men who abuse women and girls by helping them distract from the real threat.

I’m in the process of converting everything I have to metric because it’s easier. Mm is a better engineering unit than fractional inches. My temperature sensors are calibrated to centigrade.
fahrenheit vs celsius debates always fail to really get to the core of the issue because the real core is the emotional attachment, endemic in american culture, to the principle of "it's my right to be stupid, im doing it on purpose, im very proud of this, and you can't make me stop"

book is absolutely lovely so far, but this little section stood out to me.

"Drivers and pedestrians said they typically broke laws to save time. Cyclists, however, said they typically broke laws to stay safe."

ridiculously true. at no point on my bike do i think about The Law. i think about safety

Unseasonable warmth is forecast across a large portion of the Lower 48 this week. High temps will soar to 30-40 degrees above normal, with some areas as much as 50 degrees above normal. Dozens of daily temp records could be broken.

How warm will it be where you live this week? Check weather.gov.

I’d just like to interject for a moment. What you’re refering to as the “Internet Handle”, is in fact, the Bluesky PBLLC Handle, or as I’ve recently taken to calling it, the Bluesky Handle. Bluesky is not a protocol system unto itself, but rather another component of a fully functioning AT ecosystem
yea it’s the internet handle. internet handle controlled by plc.directory
