Some kind of doctor. Will work for plants. And books. And wine.
True story: I bought a suitcase at a thrift store in Manhattan the other day and I basically rolled it around for an hour getting it home and shortly before I made it back to my apartment I get this notice that there's an unknown AirTag "moving with me". 🧵

I’m in the U.S. so I suspect that I am not eligible for the giveaway because <gestures at the general state of things> but if any of the people I reach see this and are interested, DO IT. Tom Cox is in my top five of favorite authors, and is the most underrated, and under compensated, of the five.
Author wrote best book he's ever written.
Publisher disintegrated/fucked off with author's earnings.
Book was finally published by new publisher.
Author has bought two hardbacks, for full price, to give away, signed.
Please repost/reply if you'd like a chance to win one..

Threads is a vibe, man. My whole timeline there is half the people I’m following, and the other half is a small and vocal subset of the people I follow responding to low-follower bots engaging in rage-bait. But I keep having to follow them because the comments (bot or not) are HILARIOUS.

And a party that can apparently win an election fully supporting trans rights, maybe take note you opportunistic motherfucker.
Gavin Newsom is now speaking at CA DEMs HQ speaking about #Prop50 and D wins in VA/NJ/NYC: “the Dem Party is in its ascendancy, a party that's on its toes, no longer on its heels, from coast to coast, sea to shining sea.”

This feels very much like the post you want to throw at someone you know who thinks they’re left but also thinks Newsom is the obvious Dem candidate for president in 2028.
I’m glad Gavin Newsom wants to be a liberal hero instead of a right-wing podcaster.
But why does he have so little to say about the tech oligarchs fueling and funding the fascist takeover? He cozies up to them, as do his closest advisors.
California incubated crypto corruption and tech fascism.

If grocery stores can offer special savings and discounts to people who are part of their loyalty programs, I see no reason why it would be illegal for them to offer special savings to SNAP recipients.
The USDA sent an email to grocery stores telling them they are prohibited from offering special discounts to customers affected by the SNAP funding lapse.
I'm aware of at least 2 stores that had offered struggling customers a discount, then withdrew it after receiving this email

I grew up being told Stephen King stories and reading his books so if I'm honest, the idea that I might die in what amounts to a Stephen King plot, it wouldn't be expected but it wouldn't be not expected, if you know what I mean (and I think you do).

Tonight on #61MoviesOfHalloween: Doctor X, a strange little movie about a full moon mad scientist who becomes a cannibal killer! Sure, we've seen it before but have we seen the killer bizarrely bursting into flames after falling out a window? I think not! #Movie49 @republicandalek.bsky.social

The British burned down the White House in 1814, and we rebuilt it. (They also burned the Library of Congress and THAT IS NOT FORGIVEN.)
He could raze the whole thing to the ground, build some tacky gold McVilla, and we will just rebuild it.
