Did you perhaps forget to get something special just for you? You could, for example, pick up all THREE Frosting on the Cake volumes for the price of two, she suggested ever so subtly.

This face looks female - 70% pay of what the male looking faces get. Next!

Not joking.
Computer scientists: "So with machine learning we can extract subtle patterns from massive datasets. What shall we do with it?"

Business school professors, every single time: "You know, I think phrenology got a raw deal in the late 1800s."

Just the moment I needed in my day.
This is Cody. He's always wanted a dog of his own, and his wish finally came true. Can already tell his new little brother Cooper is going to be his best friend forever. 13/10 for both (TT: codythegoldenboy)

Research before you give. Do it yourself. Don't trust a meme.
During the year’s busiest season of charitable giving, donors may wonder whether the nonprofits they are considering donating to are going to be good stewards of their money.

Last year, we added tools to Nonprofit Explorer to help you look into that:

Big big thumbs up for Wake Up, Dead Man. In amongst the quirky fun there's a deep study of what faith and grace LOOK LIKE when you strip away compulsion and myth. And the importance of remembering, when everything has gone to shit, who you are.

Also, Kerry Washington sipping things.

With his new comedy show and debut novel, is it time to let Louis C.K. force women to watch him masturbate again?
When a cancelled performer reënters the culture, we expect them to offer us a great work, channelling their newfound clarity into the finest art they’ve ever made. With his new comedy show and début novel, has Louis C.K. met the bar?

Louis C.K.’s Next Chapter
In a new standup special, and a début novel, the comedian navigates murky, post-#MeToo terrain: not quite exiled, not quite welcomed back.

While I'm okay that "girl" can be used with affection and respect to describe adult women - esp. interpersonally - I 100% LOATHE the use of "girlies" to describe the entire community of romance writers and readers.

Romance is not the exclusive property of "girlies."

What fun! A taxpayer paid for email covered in a corporate personality brand.

A video paid for by ...? Featuring personality's branding. Email urges me to consider my mental health. Single line at bottom that Medicare covers some mental health services.

Wouldn't it be a thing if the media would use the very same headlines that SCREAMED AROUND THE WORLD about Biden? I don't recall them using "fatigue."

Delaying long enough to gin up a war so something big in South America blows up 5 minutes before they hit?
Trump encouraged House Republicans to vote to release the files just after he spent the weekend doing some 3-D chess to conceal the fact that the only reason the DOJ hasn’t released the documents from the Epstein case is because Trump doesn’t want them released.

At least 50%.

That's my purely unscientific result of checking the sources of "OMG that's disgusting/unconscionable" memes or long-form "you'll never believe what THEY did" rants for veracity.

At least 50% are simply not true. They exist to make the reader mad. Another 25% are mixed truth/lies.

"Hey I'm going to read the news to see if my marriage is going to be invalidated." - said no straight married person ever.

That was my gay agenda today. Finding out if my marriage was up for SCOTUS review. The answer is thankfully no. To a question no one should EVER have to ask.

Note to those who use a desktop browser - some of these settings are not available to the desktop version. Yet, I hope. Meta has led the way in putting certain privacy / moderation settings inside the app only. Bluesky, don't be like Meta.
The "service" includes settings for hiding certain types of content, warning you that the skeet contains such content before you see it, or simply turning off the filter. If you've never been here before, you'll find things like "rude" or "threats" are set to "Hide".
