I cannot comprehend them. There is nothing special about being white. You did nothing to make it happen; you were simply born with a certain amount of melanin. Somehow simpletons think that’s a “culture”.

Then again, I suppose being deliberately racist is practicing a (shit) culture.

That last sentence? That's the strategy. They've been pretty open about it.
“They’re trapped in this little confinement cell, a dark cell with no sunlight, with multiple people,” said Shaan Chatterjee, an attorney at New England Immigration Law. “They’re basically torturing people into signing off on their own deportation.”

CBS not airing James Talarico’s interview with Stephen Colbert because they were supposedly worried about FCC backlash is a really big deal. Stephen Colbert was told not to say anything and did so anyways. This man is not getting enough credit for standing up for free speech.

When I first heard about Pancake Day, I thought it was something they made up for @thehornesection.bsky.social

I’m still not convinced it’s real.

I was explaining not 30 minutes ago to a friend that I don’t want a robot vac because I have 3 cats who occasionally puke.
My wife went on holiday with her friends and left me with a 'to do list'. I bought a robot vacuum cleaner to make things easy. I programmed it and went to work. Came back to a dog with a bad stomach, made much worse, by a robot dog poo paint roller.

Happy birthday to Andrew Robinson, who played Garak on Deep Space Nine and voiced him on Lower Decks. He also directed one DS9 episode and two episodes of Voyager, and he wrote the novel A Stitch in Time, which tells the story of Garak's past.

Malie has impeccable taste. I also pick this book. The sequel Hell Bent made me openly weep on an airplane.

Wouldn’t mind being haunted by a certain someone today.
