Damn... Poor Kurt fell for a salt vampire.

Would make a great name for a political party too.

I think it’s about how everyone is being nudged towards superficially individualized pre-curated personal realities that may provide immediate comfort but ultimately rob us of opportunities to engage in critical thought, shared truth & eventually choice… which poses an existential danger to us all.

I think it's just a human thing, not necessarily Bluesky. An uncomfortably large percentage of people are basically fancy potato clocks wearing pants. Add in an American literacy crisis and voilá...

Regardless, I think anywhere packed that densely with people is somewhere to consider masking. My wife and I just got back from 2 weeks in Japan. As soon as we entered the airport we masked up, and only removed them in Japan outside the airport. Didn't want to be sick for 1/2 our expensive vacation.

I think I'm ok with one specific thing not being investigated.

I've never read it, so I just hopped on the Wikipedia page for the book, read the plot summary and... Yeah, how the fuck could anyone think HH was a sympathetic character? What the actual fuck?

That says a LOT about the person who does. Like a whole lot.

Seems pretty obvious Hines just does not care or actively likes his gross philandering weirdness. I see no reason to believe she'll be upset at all.

He gets the power to put on blackface at will.

What an awful day to have eyes.

Does it actually work like that though? "Conservatives" spread easily debunked nonsense constantly and it seems to be a part of their success. The fuckers will blame Katrina on Obama and COVID on Biden, doesn't seem to hurt the rest of their lies at all.
