Spending the morning trying to get a react app from 2015 to build and I've never more wanted my build manager to have a "reject all packages after xyz date" flag than right now 😵‍💫

The 12th annual international Gender Census 2025 is now open until at least 30th August 2025!

survey.gendercensus.com

It's for anyone whose gender (or lack thereof) isn't described by the M/F binary. It's short and easy, and results are useful in academia, business and self-advocacy.

The fact that Madmani did well with young Jewish New York voters just shows how antisemitic young Jewish New Yorkers have become.

Maybe I'm just too melody-pilled but I cannot for the life of me understand what makes bebop solos interesting? I get that they're harmonically interesting, but every solo feels like a 15 y/o guitarist playing pentatonic runs. Is this just a "wow, everything plato said is so obvious" moment or?

There are obvious ethical issues with knowingly exposing people to harmful diseases, but this is dumb for another reason.

New vaccines aren't tested against placebo because they are tested against the prior version of the vaccine. That's how you know the efficacy is improving.

Just for the record, the “530,000 cases would take 100 years” claim is yet another completely made up figure from Trump.

Even in the years before prosecutorial discretion and when there were several hundred feet judges, the immigration court routinely cleared over 250,000 cases a year.
“What is going on with our Courts? They are totally OUT OF CONTROL. They seem to hate ‘TRUMP’ so much, that anything goes!”

A tricky thing about modern society is that no one has any idea when they don’t die.

Like, the number of lives saved by controlling air pollution in America is probably over 200,000 per year, but the number of people who think their life was saved by controlling air pollution is zero.

Breaking: RFK Jr. has forced out PETER MARKS, the nation’s top vaccine regulator.

In his resignation letter, obtained by the Post, Marks said he was willing to work with RFK Jr on his vaccine concerns — but said Kennedy wishes “subservient confirmation of his misinformation and lies.”

It's a shame my wife doesn't follow legal news because she's not going to get it when I start decrying her "picayune disputes over the micromanagement of whether I've done the dishes" at home

I literally can't pick a tweet in this thread to repost because they're all *insane* but Jesus the US government is really just blatantly playing chicken with the courts at this point huh

Boasberg: The point is that even if the enjoined acts are outside territory of the US, you can't violate the injunction. If you don't like it, you can appeal it or seek to modify it. What argument do you have in equity to ignore court's orders?

If the US starts cracking down on poppers, I wonder if this might mean we get an actual honest-to-god certified Australian amyl nitrate manufacturer / importer to open.

Really frustrating that despite the legalisation, there's no current way for people to buy labeled, tested, trusted poppers.
My latest:

RFK Jr falsely claimed poppers caused AIDS.

He becomes HHS secretary.

FDA reportedly raids poppers
manufacturer.

Are these things connected? Unclear.

Also: Never, ever drink poppers! That can kill you.

My 4.5-year old just made a list of things he is grateful for. Four things made the list:
-Dada
-Mama
-the dog
-our cupboards

Now, I want to think that the cupboards are a metaphor for food or "lack of starvation". But no. He just likes the cupboards.

Montana is extremely lucky to have Zooey Zephyr and SJ Howell standing up in front of openly transphobic lawmakers who wanted to pass a bill that would /take trans kids away from their parents./
