weekend plans got fucked up because I am sick, but at least @tulipmusic.bsky.social and I went ice skating today, which was maybe a bit too much of a valentine’s day activity

“I look forward to catching this week’s episode of the rebooted Muppet Show. Who was the celebrity guest this week?”

“It was just a one-episode reboot so far.”

“Let me repeat my question….”

MAGA Influencer: We need more quaint small towns like the one in this picture I found when I Googled “quaint small town.”

*Picture is of a town in Vermont that Bernie Sanders wins by 58 points. Lesbian couples own every store.*

I feel this way about pretty much all vaccine-preventable infectious diseases. You shouldn't be allowed to dump cyanide into municipal drinking water and you shouldn't be allowed to recreationally spread viruses around shared public spaces.
My most authoritarian opinion is that the MMR vaccine should be mandatory, with only medical (not religious or floofy) exemptions allowed. www.theatlantic.com/ideas/2026/0...

It's been a chaotic week over here and I just noticed that the pronoun labeler was gone! 😭

The good news is that there's a new one, so heads up that you can go get your badges back!
The pronoun labeler, which was by far the most useful labeler on the site, was deleted by its creator. But thanks to @ripperoni.com there’s a new one available. I highly recommend it. It’s a great way to share your pronouns or see someone else’s pronouns at a glance.

The more I think about it the more I think we could just do entirely open borders and treat national residency the the way we treat state residency. If you live here you pay taxes and are subject to the legal system and can vote while you live here

Anyone who had genuine concerns about youth gender medicine would staunchly and wholeheartedly support social transition. Let kids explore their identities to see what works for them!

The fact that this movement opposes even pronouns and haircuts shows that it's just bigotry all the way down.
This draft guidance reproduces Cass insisting that clinicians must be involved in decisions about *social transition* which actually should be none of their damn business

They take the line that this "non-directive" intervention should force things to be "keeping options open and flexible"...

An immigration court dropped its case against Turkish graduate student Rumeysa Ozturk, a little less than a year after federal agents arrested her on a street near Tufts University

age verification?

I used to look up the streets using the index in the giant book of maps to help my mom navigate in the car.
Age verification?

My first means of mobile communication was a beeper/pager
age verification?

will a long list of abandoned livejournal accounts that haven’t been accessed since 2010 or so suffice?

Really hoping we see her come out and win something at the next Olympics. I personally think she's good enough.

@massgovernor.bsky.social remains not only a disappointment and embarrassment, but someone who continues to actively betray the values of her base. I am committed to supporting whomever is willing to challenge her from the left, for the rest of time.
NEW: Of all the states that voted for Harris over Trump in 2024, there's only one where a Dem governor is overseeing an ICE's 287(g) program:

Massachusetts.

Other blue states have quit, or even outright banned it. My colleague on what's happening: boltsmag.org/massachusett...

As part of a 287(g) contract between state officials and ICE, Massachusetts continues to release prisoners into deportation—even as state lawmakers look to ban other forms of ICE collaboration.

If you are too young to remember Surya, she was a fucking ICON. The only person in history to do a BACKFLIP with a SPLIT ON THE AIR, which she’d land ON ONE FOOT

Of course she wasn’t properly appreciated in her time because racism.

This is just factually correct. The humans who appeared on the Muppet show weekly were guest stars, not hosts.
