After a bird flu outbreak tore through Midwestern barns, killing millions of chickens and spiking egg prices, the federal government didn’t investigate if the virus was airborne.

So ProPublica did.

Decided on something lighter this year for the Spooky Season. With how the world has been lately, didn't really feel up to writing the spookier things I tend to write for the season. Hopefully people enjoy this one despite it not actually being particularly scary! #pathfinder #pathfinder1e

If you're using Windows 11, Microsoft is now surveilling you in a new way. This may already be turned on on your computer, and you would not be notified; it activates whenever they detect you are in a "game", which in my experience Microsoft often false-positives on

Dear Canada:

American here. Trump’s a crook and a madman; there’s no percentage in dealing with him.

Fucking. Bury. Us. Put export levies on your oil and cut off the electricity. Hit us while we’re down.

There is no poverty that can be worse than the moral and psychological poverty of Trumpism.

1. 4 months ago, The Supreme Court gave families a right to opt out of LGBTQ+ education in schools.

Now, in Montgomery County, Maryland, where the case originated, the results are in.

Only 43 families out of 160,000 students have exercised that new right.

A lot of us know what this is, but for the average person on here: circa 2015 the Alt Right (the explicitly NeoNazi wing especially) appropriated the obscure McDonald’s mascot from the 80s, and made it into a NeoNazi ridden meme.

So yes, this is straight NeoNazism being posted.
