ZOMG LET ME TELL YOU ABOUT THE SHALE
Okay, so the Burgess Shale is a fossil bed in British Columbia that contains a whole bunch of fossils of weirdass creatures from the Cambrian era, over 500 million years ago. But the great thing about the shale is that it has fossilized SOFT PARTS!

This is a wonderful thread and my Zora makes an appearance. <3
in tribute to @charliebrowntc.bsky.social , a king among cats, let us have a thread of Great Departed Cats, to show the angels that are now greeting him.

The unasked for (by me) Ai summary of my class last night says “students can utilize” and I’m like let me stop you right there… I will NEVER say utilize.
But ”AI” is developed and trained by the kind of people who will never say “use” when “utilize” is right there.

This thread is terrifying and illuminating
ever since I learned about three-cueing I've developed infinitely more patience for replies on social media. mfers literally do not know how to read. people are walking around conjuring random meanings into words they don't know, and they don't know a lot of words. it's crazy

I long for the day when people who actually use software are considered in the design and development of that software.

The only people who hate the Dem base more than Republicans are elected Dems. We exist solely to facilitate them getting richer in office.
American politics makes a lot more sense when you realize that the GOP is afraid of pissing off the GOP base, and the Dems are afraid of pissing off the GOP base, but neither party is afraid of pissing off the Dem base.

I adore Marie Kondo (what I’ve seen of her, anyway.) It’s very hard for people like me with animist tendencies to discard things and she makes me feel like it’s ok. I needed her voice.
One of the reasons Marie Kondo's advice made everyone mad in 2018-19 (Apart from Racism™️) was that for many, getting to a point where they can even feel joy takes +5 years of therapy and access to the good drugs.
Of course, Marie addresses this...🧵

I love how the peasants going without pay or food is no problem, but mildly inconvenience congresspeople and they're ready to throw away our ability to access healthcare.
not enough chatter about how frequently members fly and how attacking airport capacity directly affects them in a way that cutting SNAP does not

My FSA is garbage. I have to jump through hoops to prove that dental care, eye care, or doctor copay fees "qualify," though I can buy random crap off Amazon without a care.
Also, there is NO WAY Republicans will allow any federal money to flow to anyone who is not already a powerful millionaire.

"A development that appeared to break the logjam: Republicans proposed that healthcare funding be provided directly to households rather than used to pay for a 1-year extension of ACA subsidies. That involves sending federal money into FSAs instead of insurance companies" www.wsj.com/politics/pol...
Republicans Pitch Alternative to ACA Extension to End Government Shutdown
A proposal by GOP senators to send money directly to consumers’ health accounts rather than to insurance companies showed signs of breaking a stalemate on negotiations.
