Spot on. You can’t respond authentically to art with your arms folded and a sneer on your lips. It’s impossible to be a good audience.

Entrance of the Calgary Public Library in downtown Calgary featuring a wide tunnel lined in moulded wood paneling creating a large, visually striking arch

Every time I go to the downtown library I get to enjoy just how rad the entrance is

Building Big Brother is expensive.

Holy shit

I believe that in order to take some small step forward, the word “bird” should be replaced with “saur” in all common names. Mockingsaur. Secretarysaur. Red-winged blacksaur.

I just wanna say modern forms of Outlook, 'enhanced' by Copilot and AI, are unsurprisingly complete and utter fucking dogshit. I fucking hate how it lays out emails. I fucking hate it's busted attempt to provided "focused" or "relevant" emails. It is consistently completely fucking wrong. I hate it.

Victor Orban’s biggest mistake? Not going on Joe Rogan.

Los Angeles Times Parachutist Dies in Fall at Yosemite's El Capitan L.A. Times Archives Oct. 23, 1999 12 AM PT FROM ASSOCIATED PRESS YOSEMITE NATIONAL PARK — A parachutist plunged to her death off Yosemite's most forbidding peak Friday during a protest of park rules banning such jumps.

Can a plastic mail-order sex doll be a wiling adult participant in a relationship? Normal people say no but we spent 1600 words talking to Wayne, who lives in his mother’s shed outside of Indianapolis, to take the proposition very seriously, because we have grave perceptual and analytic deficits.

Okay CTA. This is a good sign.

I'm one of those trans women. I worked ground ops for Artemis I.

I am torn between celebrating the success of my friends and peers and grieving how my dream of working for NASA was shattered by hateful assholes in Tallahassee

Cite the deep magic to me, witch. I was there when it was written and I think it’s important to credit our sources.

me when someone cites the deep magic to me even though I was there when it was written: holy shit, for real? I don't remember that part at all

These expected transitions mark anticipated milestones in one's life.

When they fail to appear, a person enters a liminal state as real as finding yourself in a darkened stairwell or the quiet fluorescent buzzing back corridors of a busy mall.

Every culture has life milestones, transitions of roles that are expected as one ages.

This could be graduating, getting a first job, moving out, having a child, retiring, etc

Hot take: "Why do we understand that..."
You don't. The first "man this crazy with nuclear weapons" was Putin.
And everybody treated him like somewhat eccentric yet sane partner.
"Reload of relationship" half a year after Georgia war (Obama/Hillary).
Meek response in 2014 (Obama).
And all the rest.

Only a demonic power would bomb a church or a residential building on Palm Sunday to kill as many civilians as possible.

Last night, russia murdered a 30yo woman and her toddler daughter, along with a 53yo woman in Odesa.

15 ppl injured, incl a pregnant woman and two kids.

russia is pure evil.

We killed a large number of civilians at a church service last Palm Sunday. We attacked this one cos your response to the last one was pathetic.

The secret to doing anything is look at some crap stuff and going “I could do better than that”

The virtue of "two weeks" is the particular uncertainty it offers: it's long enough to imagine something substantial being mustered, without being so long that you're shocked if he doesn't muster anything substantial. The preferred interval of a man accustomed to arriving empty-handed.

Many think I am crazy for this but I believe the Russian nuclear arsenal is vastly overrated. It is very expensive to maintain a nuclear arsenal and requires a well functioning state. You have to replace the nuclear material in warheads every 10 years. I doubt this corrupt regime was able to do that
