Obviously a copy of Dune and then also obviously my misprinted edition of The Traitor Baru Coromont, which causes everyone to scream in shock when they first open it
alright let’s get something more pleasant going. what two books would you leave out on your coffee table so a reporter can mention you have them. doesn’t matter if you’ve read them. for me it’s Pale Fire (which I did read) and Ulysses (got like 15% of the way in)

Something they don’t tell you about becoming a parent is that every general-interest science article can become a horror story

Gang, Victor expert here. This isn’t funny. He drinks like 4 or 5 glasses of milk throughout the movie. Victors only do that when they’re distressed.

Please stop posting your kids' candy hauls if they're depressing bullshit. I've seen so many Twizzlers, Mike & Ikes, Junior Mints, etc. that I'm about to start calling child services. Somebody posted a shot with multiple visible 100-calorie packs of Blue Diamond almonds. Have some self respect.

@semuhi.bsky.social and @sahibjafarov.bsky.social did much of the work on this dataset. over a quarter of all non-autocratic rulers 1989-2021 have been prosecuted, so it was a lot of work

the democratic party’s basic problem is it has almost no control over how its message reaches the ears of voters, especially outside of presidential election years. but rather than devote serious time, attention and cash to that problem its consultants and pundits want to fight factional battles

i was surprised to learn that bc most protein powders are considered dietary supplements, they basically fall into a regulatory grey area
there's no federal limit on the amount of lead they can contain and neither manufacturers nor the FDA have to prove these products are safe before they're sold
