Hey, just a quiet reminder: it’s not true that people get more conservative as they age. *Populations* get more conservative as they age because poor and marginalized people die sooner.

Seniors Are More Conservative Because the Poor Die Off
Sometimes older voters aren’t just naturally more conservative. It’s just that wealthier and whiter people tend to live longer and healthier lives.

y'know, I love the original episodes of "It Could Happen Here", but frankly after that, it has turned into "Doomscrolling: The Podcast", and I don't think those need to be on my Behind the Bastards feed @iwriteok.bsky.social. Can we maybe please just let it be its own podcast??

Showed @ha1fbyte.bsky.social the first episode of LEVERAGE tonight. After, re: Eliot and Hardison, she said, "There is probably SO MUCH gay porn about those two."
Me: "Not unless Parker's there. The OT3 carries the fandom."

We are experiencing an assault on science unparalleled by anything I’ve seen in my life. It’s not one issue or another anymore, the entire institution is under attack by the most powerful individuals in the country.

This Friday, where will you be?

I hate that you people made me defend Zuckerberg, just STOP ACTING AS IF A PERSON'S PHYSICAL APPEARANCE IS AN INDICATION OF MORALITY. It's not hard.

There are a million things wrong with this man; not one of them is about how he looks. There's nothing cute or progressive about making fun of a person's fucking face.

Btw, everyone in the comments calling him a lizard or reptilian is parroting antisemitic bullshit, whether they realize it or not.
Imagine being the sixth richest person on earth, spending tons of money to overhaul your face and hair to look cooler, and this is the absolute best they could do

When I was researching FEED--the first of a series of novels about pandemics and their effects--I ran across one of the most frightening concepts I had ever seen in non-fiction. It held that humanity has been living in the anthropocene--the human age--but was approaching the pandemicene.

tuned in to @joehills.net's stream tonight and sent a small dono with a message to jumpscare @taibhsearachd.bsky.social when he said her name. It worked! XD

I mean, honestly, if I’m relatable, seek a diagnosis. I didn’t make autism and ADHD my entire personality, Autism and ADHD made my personality what it is.
