Return the Black Hills to native people. Other places would also be good, don’t get me wrong, but there is so much mineral wealth in the Black Hills that deserves infinitely better stewardship and isn’t gonna get it as long as mining companies can just walk onto public land.
"my least woke opinion is---"
That's enough. We've had enough people indulging in the "thrill of a little conservatism", as a treat. Of considering reactionary thought to be a salacious and taboo in a world descending into reactionary mania.
Give me your MOST woke opinions. We're bringing it back.

You may have seen that 600+ detainees are eligible for release, which is amazing! BUT: you may not know that immigration detainees still have to pay for their freedom-- $1500 bond per person! The Midwest Immigration Bond Fund is raising money to help people get free, please donate: www.mibfc.org

![[Scene is a kitchen - a middle aged woman called JANET is boiling peas at the stove. A younger more colourfully dressed woman named LIZ approached her.]
JANET:
Ugh...
LIZ:
What's up?
JANET:
I am so bored of cooking peas!
LIZ:
Have you tried...
AI peas?
JANET:
AI peas?
LIZ:
They're peas with AI!
[Liz holds up to us a packet of peas labelled: Pea-i AI - Peas with AI].
LIZ:
Al-powered peas harness the potential of your peas
JANET:
What
LIZ [Now a voiceover as we cut to a whizzy technology diagram of peas all connected by meaningless dotted lines]
Why not take your peas to the next level with Al Peas' new Al tools to power your peas?
[Show a techno diagram of a pea with a label reading 'AI' pointing to a random zone in it]
LIZ:
Each pea has Al in a way we haven't quite worked out yet but it's fine
[Show Janet and Liz now in a Matrix-style world of peas]
LIZ:
With Al peas you can supercharge productivity and make AI work for your peas!
JANET:
What
LIZ:
Shut up
LIZ:
Our game-changing Pea-Al gives you the freedom to unlock the potential of the power of the future of your peas workflow
From opening the bag of peas
to boiling the peas
to eating the peas
To spending millions on adding Al to the peas and then having to work out what that even means.
JANET:
Is it really necessary to-
LIZ [Grabbing Janet by the collar]:
THE PEAS HAVE GOT AI, JANET
[Cut to an advert ending screen, with the bag of peas and the slogan:
AI PEAS: Just 'Peas' for god's sake buy the AI peas.

artists how do you learn how to add color to stuff without ruining everything
why can't i figure out Colors
i mean don't get me wrong i'm not great at lines either but at least I feel like I could improve. But coloring stuff feels like I have no footing, just random choices I hope work out

several centuries later the Victorians were doing repairs with concrete and once they finished, rather than hoik all the unused concrete back down, they just dumped it out in the triforium so you’ve also got this situation going on

the neat thing about having "Love Goes On and On" by Lindsey Stirling stuck in your head, quite apart from the lovely melody and intense drama, is that for some of it you just have Amy Lee going AAAAAAAAaaaaaaaAAAAAAaaaAAaaAAAaaAAAaaAAA in between your ears

Barkcloth beaters have been used on Sulawesi to produce cloth from bark for thousands of years.
Their sophisticated designs remained relatively unchanged until the 19th century AD, when the introduction of woven textiles necessitated innovation to compete

Okay, the April 2022 Blahaj shortage, that's on us
A reminder that this anti-trans panic is 100% bullshit and exactly none of our country’s problems are related to someone expressing their gender identity and everyone who isn’t a hate-filled weirdo knows it.

Can someone explain this IngramSpark link thing to me. Does it mean that readers can buy a paperback directly from Ingram? I always thought they were about distribution, not direct sales. Has anyone tried this and sold books this way?
