Matt Damon playing a 14th century French knight that looks like a third baseman for the Phillies. Mullet. Beard. Smells like horse shit, pine tar, and cigarette smoke.

Matt Damon while playing Odysseus who also looks like a third baseman for the Phillies. Long, skinny beard. Smells like horseshit, pine tar, and perhaps Mediterranean herbs.

Matt Damon playing a 19th century cowboy that looks like a third baseman for the Phillies. Mustache. Shaggy hair. Smells like horse shit, pine tar, and definitely chewing tobacco.

Every time Matt Damon takes on a period role he ends up looking like a third baseman for the Phillies.

My most liberal idpol radlib take is that I think it's pretty bad that
right wing forces are actively intervening on behalf of the Klan with the full weight of the state legal apparatus

Wall Street Journal headline: "Alan Dershowitz: Why I'm Becoming a Republican"

Higher acceptance of sex crimes, same reason as everyone else who announces this

surely no army in military history has ever been laid low by disease, a famously uncommon problem among people living in enforced close quarters

RFK Jr. just said that immigration is to blame for the outbreaks of vaccine-preventable diseases in the U.S., not him.

They're just little guys. You can look at them for free and you can look at them up close if you pay for Bird Premium (binoculars or camera). They're just doing behaviors. They will never email you.

birds: they will never email you. and that’s a promise.

Critics of new bill say Ohio women would be banned from sports bras, bikinis in public 'The peak of fear mongering.'

Media needs to stop with "critics say" and just quote the actual language of the bill.

HB 249 creates a new category of "seminudity" which can be used to arrest women who aren't nude, but are wearing clothing — leggings, t-shirts without bras — that religious groups feel is too provocative.

RFK Jr. just said HHS is "cleaning up the risk pool" (i.e., people who are unhealthy) to bring down healthcare costs.

We fucking warned y’all that this was the goddamned end goal for those smart glasses.

Marmo thinking about biting my phone

Still thinking about it

Marmalade Update: it has been 1 year since i adopted marmo. She is the light of my life. She is the wind that uplifts the tatters of my wretched soul. But most importantly, she is a rat bastard

A Black Turnstone walking across bright green surfgrass exposed at low tide. This is a dark brown shorebird with a dark chest, a white belly and brown legs. It has black eyes and a short, pointed black bill.

Four baby Killdeer chicks standing in a gravel lot. These are extremely fluffy baby shorebirds with long legs and short bills. Their backs are mottled brown, their bellies are bright white, and they have black markings across their chest and eyes.

A White-lined Dirona swimming over sand This is a nudibranch with a whitish, semi-translucent body and broad leaf-like projections across its body that are edged in white.

A male Common Yellowthroat singing while perched on a small branch. The vapor of his breath is just visible above him. This is a yellow songbird with a bright yellow throat and a black mask over the front of his face. He has a contrasting white stripe just above this mask, and a small, sharp black bill.

I am verrrrrryyyyy tentatively back, bsky. Do not make me regret this.

Have some recent photos :)

Mask vending machine at JFK

So great to see JFK airport still has mask vending machines, which have 3M Auras!

RFK Jr no longer disguising his MAHA movement for what it really is: eugenics

on the one hand, we're apparently big enough to be a valid target now

on the other hand, we're apparently not big enough to actually spend any time on before targeting us because they clearly have not seen this site's takes on the war

Fractures Emerge Between GOP’s Pro-Pedophilia, Extremely Pro-Pedophilia Wings

lol imagine being on a submarine right now

Kamala Harris' campaign org rehabilitating Tucker Carlson is incredibly stupid and evil, but not very surprising.

it's a horrible article about a horrible thing, and it is surely a reflection of some despicable cultural attitudes about women, but repeating a fake statistic that like 1 in 3 american men were interested in this is not helpful to anyone

thinking abt this bc there is currently a controversy on tiktok where people are misreading and spreading a statistic from this article, saying that 62 million men were either in or interested in a telegram chat about drugging and raping their female partners when really it was like 1000 people max

Thankfully he had made a friend with another released detainee from the area, so he had a safe place to wait for me to travel from Minnesota. But I finally got to meet this guy for the first time at 11:30pm outside of a gas station in a Texas town I’d never been to before.

At 6pm, struggling to find help, I said fuck it, I’m going to go get him myself. I bought the last flight to Austin, got his passport from his wife, and was at the SkyClub in under an hour (MSP!). I arrived in Austin, rented a car, and drove in the rain for an hour to the home of PAC-12 Texas State.

However, because he was detained in South Texas, he was released without any cash or ID at a bus station in San Marcos. The family and I were trying to figure out where he was and how to send him money or buy his bus ticket. I also looked up that a Greyhound trip would be 3 days and 4 transfers.

Alright, I’m home now so here’s the Norm update. Yesterday at 4pm, I got a text from a family I’ve been helping who had a loved one abducted a couple of days after Renée Good’s murder. This was the family that Norm Nation kept from being evicted (and you delivered). ICE had released their loved one.

yiiiikes

Seandar16 SOON Lunar Faire @Seandar16@dice.camp ICE is out in South Philly. Spotted out around 7th and Wolf right now. Update: A couple vans by 7th & Porter too. #Philly #Philadelphia #SouthPhilly #FuckICE 5

ICE ALERT from earlier this morning:

🚨 BREAKING: Lyme Disease Cases Drop 70% in Vaccine Trial—After Decades, We May Finally Have a Way to Stop It

No human vaccine for decades. That may be about to change.

COVID definitively proved to me that public health doesn’t work in a country where rabid individualism is seen as a virtue and where nobody gives a fuck about anyone else, to the point that they’ll gladly let 68K people die preventable deaths annually to save a few bucks on their taxes.
