hey I get that you're "joking" or whatever but you just exposed both your misunderstanding of what the demiurge is and your total lack of a coherent cosmology

Every time something horrendous happens with this admin I have a dream that I give matt Chandler a piece of my mind so maybe this will give me catharsis during waking hours next time

Duuuuude

Ignore the dust omg. My ex would have a heart attack

Got it. Saving this for a future hinge profile

Getting older is figuring out which order to don my eye heater, CPAP mask, and headphones

I'm mostly thinking about what I remember of the messaging from both admins and just the social media sentiments in general at the time. But man. Talk about no room for nuance

We heard the phrase "flattening the curve" a lot the first few months and as someone who worked in the ICU during that, we needed to flatten it!

But then it became a weird extreme binary choose your own adventure to either take extraordinary precautions indefinitely or deny it was ever a big deal

Since I'm seeing COVID posts, one thing that amazed me about COVID was the moving target of expectations. Zoonotic diseases, from my understanding, can't really be eradicated. So the goal was to slow down exposure because the hospitals only have so many respirators and resources

I feel like we won't know if this is true until it's too late but this is a super interesting take

Thinkin about thos Beans

I love media as expressing cultural aspirations rather than realistic depictions.

Heartstopper got a lot of jokes for how focused the characters were on consent and understanding. But it's like, maybe we hyperbolically depict those things every now and then!!

All I got growing up was Mean Girls!

This isn't test isn't as specific but if you have the funds to clearly have a media team and put on a really good presentation I'm gonna assume it's not a good place

I don't know if I can do it justice. But if I had to put language to it I'd say if it seems like they're clearly tailoring their content for a YouTube thumbnail. Oversimplified, vague/broad messaging, obviously trying to appeal to twenty-somethings.

Maybe I'm not the best metric but she's like one of the most relatable politicians I can think of. Maybe the most relatable in the boomer category

I'd put money on this church being extremely homophobic from this graphic alone

It's crazy how quickly I can tell a church is affirming or not based on the aesthetics of their website and the titles of their sermon series

Text that says "There are a lot of beautiful women at fasser for those that are interested"

The straight guys I'm neighbors with are getting inclusive in the GM

Glad you're in the club hope you got adequate therapy

Behind my eyes, a familiar child.
I take his hand, and he finally smiles.

Be gentle with yourself as you uncover
Your best kept secrets, yet to be discovered.

In stillness, boys, clear water to the bottom.
You will do better in the morning.
I will do better in the morning.

I read the first point without knowing the context or author and just automatically assumed it was criticizing Texas.

Let's all use this occasion to take a look at the many ways Tennessee Republicans have shown how much they value and respect the Traditional Nuclear Family™

A peer reviewed study shows a promising link between flu and shingles vaccines and a reduced risk of dementia. A heroin addict who cut off a raccoon’s penis for “further study” says these vaccines cause autism. For busy Americans, it can be hard to know who to trust.

The TL;DR is that recently-leaked internal memos from 2016 reveal that John Roberts and the court's conservatives invented the shadow docket because of nakedly ideological opposition to Obama's Clean Power Plan.

Gary Oak moved in with my PhD advisor

Thank god

Like figuratively?

Went to a lot of dietetic research presentations today about replacing ingredients with higher fiber/protein alternatives and I was like "oh this isn't a scam?"
