Our two microblogging sites are the "relitigate Hitler" site and the "relitigate Stalin" site. One wonders what they're doing over on Threads.
Obrigado, Adrina!
Thanks, Coco!
Thanks for your kind words, Sharon
Valeu, meu caro
Thank you
She left us today, after her health took a sudden turn for the worse. Despite SNCB's best efforts, I at least could be by her side for her final moments in this Earth.

The final version of my article The Deregulation of Cancer is finally out in @tamu.bsky.social Texas A&M Law Review.
I argue that we can't understand rising cancer rates in young people without understanding the erosion of cancer regulatory regimes. Useful for health law, cancer, and adlaw scholars
Se foi hoje, amg :(

pensando em escrever um guia como adotar um gerenciador de senhas para pessoas muito preguiçosas
pq o problema é que a pessoa preguiçosa tem preguiça do trabalho de mudar, mas o gerenciador de senhas revoluciona PRINCIPALMENTE a vida da pessoa preguiçosa. eu sei porque eu sou uma delas
Sharron Davies ranting against 15 minute cities, because of course she is.
Suzanne Moore in the Telegraph saying she wants to... kill all dogs??
Julie Burchill asking "does it matter if Grok undresses us all?" in The Spectator
Graham Linehan in the midst of his now four-day-long double down on Alex Pretti's murder being justified and fine.
Calling transphobia a 'gateway drug' to the far right undersells it. It's pure accelerant. Grimly fascinating to guess what crankery becomes any famous transphobe's secondary obsession, cos they all have one: 15 minute cities are fascism! Grok noncing is cool! ICE are good! We should kill all dogs!
This is absolutely devastating…Auntie is such a pillar of UK influence
we'd be better off culturally if the media treated comedians as clowns -- which is to actually appreciate the craft they are trying to hone -- rather than intellectual luminaries with profound insight into subjects that, in reality, they could not land an entry-level job covering.

Everything is fucking dumb all the time now
Quite a flex to turn up at the presidential palace, get him to confirm you as prime minister, call him unfit to serve with no moral authority, tell him to resign, and then pose for a picture
United States Ambassador To Italy Mrs Clare Boothe Luce Listens To The Words Of Pope Pius Xii,During An Audience At The Pontiff'S Lakeside Summer Residence.13 October 1955
American conservative politician Clare Boothe Luce converted to Catholicism in 1946.
In a 1953 meeting with Pope Pius XII, she was fiercely lecturing the pontiff on the Church's moral duty to fight communism when the Pope finally interrupted her.
"You know, Mrs. Ambassador, I am a Catholic too."
Of course, my actual train was cancelled! Hahaha now I'm taking a long detour home
There was literally a pangolin that flew combat sorties with the CIA in a dirty war in Laos that then died after drinking too much gin, so there’s at least one pangolin whose record is morally ambiguous
Just came across a rare Pokémon (a SNCB train without graffiti)
Who would have imagined that between the US and Iran, it’s the latter that is winning the meme war?
So Fantasy grows out of Romance (medieval) but rejects Romance (contemporary) because for girls, so Romance (contemporary) develops into something increasingly un-Fantastical, and has to be portmanteued back into Fantasy (Romantasy), despite Fantasy being originally Romance...
screencap of a tweet with a photo at the bottom of JD Vance giving a talk, gesturing smugly with his hands Eric Daugherty • @EricLDaugh • 1h • JD VANCE RESPONDS TO POPE LEO: "When the Pope says that God is never on the side of those who wield the sword - there is more than a THOUSAND year tradition of Just war Theory." "In the same way that it's important for the vice president of the United States to be careful when I talk about matters of public policy, I think it's very, very important for the pope to be careful when he talks about matters of theology." "And I think that one of these issues here is that there has been - if you're going to opine on matters of theology, you've got to be careful, you've got to make sure it's anchored in the truth, and that's one of the things that I try to do, and it's certainly something I would expect from the clergy, whether they're Catholic or Protestant."
I’ve given this a great deal of thought, trying to come up with the perfect joke for this moment, and this is what I have so far -
POPE LEO: our religion teaches that this war is bad
VANCE: wow, who died and made YOU head of the Catholic Church??
POPE LEO: well, you should know, you were there
I feel a bit sorry for these incel boys with their manosphere, looks-maxxing, and mogging.
In my day if you couldn’t get a date you put on a cape and mask and haunted an opera house

sorry to this guy but this is unfortunately extremely funny to me
yeah a lot of the anti-AI discourse has weird protestant-work-ethic vibes — and that also has the result that people *dismiss* concerns about AI for this reason
