Fifties and statins.

I did NOT know about your love of the Wonder Twins, but I have massive respect for it!

The basic challenge with discussing Sarah Isgur is that she's just not interesting. She is a Supreme Court fangirl who makes money by praising conservative justices in public. There are lots of conservative lawyers like her, and the next time one of them says anything insightful will be the first.

Really great, short, succinct assessment of a question that gets asked all the time without its core phrase ever really being truly defined.

The thing is, it’s possible that using some Machine Learning really could help air traffic controllers. But with where things are at right now in the industry, it’s very hard to believe that anyone is proposing a real, technically solid solution. It’s probably Grok.

Meta Is Sued Over Scam Ads on Facebook and Instagram A lawsuit from the Consumer Federation of America accuses Meta of misleading consumers about its efforts to combat scams advertisements on its platforms.

NEW: The Consumer Federation of America sued Meta this morning over scam ads on Facebook and Instagram. @regret.bsky.social has the scoop: www.wired.com/story/meta-i...

the art of war: “you - yes, you, dipshit - need to feed your men and make sure they don’t get sick. no you are not exempt on the basis of being a very special boy. oh my god, why am I surrounded by idiots.”

An absolutely stellar Jay gives the perfect rendition of an over-the-shoulder smolder.

They look good forward too.

And, of course, there is side eye.

Masters of the over-the-shoulder smolder, Stellar jays, no disrespect to Steller, of course, it just rolls off the tongue better, are my favorite part of taking visitors hiking in the PNW.

I'm not going to slag on any Alaska Native foods, so opening it up reguon-wise: most barbecue is way too sweet, and that absolutely includes Americanized teriyaki.

He decided the gravy needed to be healthier and took out all the butter and fat drippings (yes, we used both).

It did not go over well.

You're so brave to post this. (Sausage gravy is so weird to me, though I will accept it on chicken-fried steak.)

I was a prep cook at a diner and one of my jobs was making the sausage gravy. Owner fired me to hire a friend, a doctor who'd lost his license. (cont)

Give it to me and I'll do what you shoulda done ten minutes ago

This meme from the Dark Knight is how I feel about Democratic national leadership every fucking day.

A screen shot of a skeet from Merriam-Webster that reads - ‘SWIMS’ upside down is still ‘SWIMS’. With a reply that reads - if you love geometric fonts where this would be true so much then why don't you use them in your body copy? no? not readable? go FUCK yourself; dictionary. they should call you hypocrictionary

I’m sorry, but bluesky is THRIVING…

Again, where the fuck have AAPG, GSA, and AGU *been* in raising alarm about this shit?

All three geological and geophysical professional societies have *direct interests* in at least getting the public aware of what an absolute disaster the targeting of civilian energy infrastructure is.

‘We were terrified they were going to kill us’: fishers who survived US boat strike speak out An Ecuadorian fishing crew describe their ordeal as victims of Trump’s purported war on ‘narcoterrorists’

“The US has provided no evidence that any of the vessels were involved in drug trafficking, and legal experts and rights groups say the attacks amount to extrajudicial killings as they apparently target civilians who do not pose any immediate threat.”

First of all, I'm sorry that happened to you, that sucks.

Secondly, I wish I was more surprised. Any conspiratorial thinking is going to lead back to us eventually, and the COVID vaccine has had more than its share of conspiracy theories.

i'm going to be beating my "get off substack" drum again.

because seriously: get off substack.

stop helping literal sex traffickers make money.

Let yourself be old.

If you need hearing aids, get hearing aids (if you can afford to). If you need bifocals, get bifocals. Don't let fear of being seen as old stop you from living your life, because aging sucks, but it's also a privilege not everyone gets access to.

a big thread of very interesting looking apps! I didn’t mean to get back into Japanese this year, but . . . maybe?

People are so incredibly talented. All we need is the space and time to create.

Canadian doctors obeying a U.S. executive order that doesn’t even apply to Canada is deeply offensive to both trans people and to Canadian legal sovereignty.

I thought there were no new takes to be had but I was wrong

Digital illustration of a Dark-eyed Junco, a dark brown sparrow with a pink beak, looking down from the background at a patch of red clover. The clover is covered in a variety of insects from Graham Montgomery's Ph.D work, including Harmonia axyridis (Asian ladybeetle), Scaptomyza terminalis (a small fly), Altica sp. flea beetles (tiny iridescent green beetles), Forcipata loca (pale yellow small leafhopper), Evacanthus interruptus (yellow and black leafhopper), and Anaspis rufa (small golden-brown false flower beetles).

I've never known if #BirdoftheDay is open to art but I guess I'll give it a go! If we're doing birds with flowers today, then I'll re-share this illustration of a Slate-colored Junco peering down on a landscape of red clover and the insects among it. #BirdArt #SciArt #Invertebrates

A golden retriever has both paws up at a bank teller’s window.

“Are you the branch manager?”
“Yes I am, how can I help you?”
“I would like two branches, please.”
“How would you like that?”
“Two big sticks, four little sticks.”

this is why "Turning Red" is a perfect film we needed desperately and everyone who shat on it to make sure we'd never get anything like it again can choke

And SO WHAT IF THEY DO, anyway?
