hosting it in the building the administration stole and occupied is crazy work, holy shit

excuse me this rules

again, this is my experience from 20 years ago, but even then, it was an entirely different group of people that wrote/edited/modified those headlines than the people who cared a lot about *exactly* what was in print forever.

I worked at a paper in the late aughts, and this has been common practice for a long time; it's just that it feels considerably more sinister when you're talking about *war crimes*. It's clickbait rules applied to deadly serious topics.

if this goes on for too long, we should probably get kids back on cigarettes. somebody call Joe Camel.

On this Trans Day of Visibility, and every other day on the calendar--- always and forever:

that is such a silly and sweet touchstone and something I hope we'll get to say a lot more in the next few years

I'll go...OH I'M SORRY, IS *TELEPORTATION* NO LONGER AN ASSET TO DISASTER RESPONSE?!

It is extremely wrong that there is no whistle emoji. Somebody call the Unicode Consortium

In a recent hiring round, I interviewed a candidate who claimed to live in Chicago (where I'd lived for years) but couldn't tell me a single thing about the city. I felt like a human CAPTCHA. It's so deeply bad for everyone involved.
