Today in good news:

“I wear my meta glasses at night
So that I can (so that I can)
Record you eat and sleep any place
I wear my meta glasses at night
So that I can (so that I can)
Watch porn I made of you on the bus.”

Everyone will recoil at the site of you and call you a pervert when you wear these glasses. Also they’re great at shading your eyes from the sun. :)

i respect season 2 of the pitt for saying "ignoring your depression & trauma doesn't make you the sympathetic hero, it makes you a problem in the fucking workplace"

I just had a thought.

Has there ever been a pokemon kid to birder adult pipeline study? Because I feel like there needs to be.

Last night I was drunk on the bus and ended up telling everyone around me all about how raven mimicking behaviour is part of their complex social and survival strategy, what era of queer is this?

Your daily reminder that anything you post on social media is part of the public domain and can be scrapped, reprinted, and/or quoted by laypersons, media, and the courts at any time, without your permission.

Also, this person is legitimately out to lunch.

I love the spontaneous, continuing resistance all over the city but turning a corner and seeing this is probably a lot to process for people using or off of their anti-psychotics

Watching the US handle the Strait of Hormuz Crisis and the Iranian war is like watching a man shoot himself in the foot, recock the fun gun, and declare himself the winner because he still has 4 toes left.

In which The Economist forgets how to spell "Nazis."

A grid photo of 16 different characters all played by the legend Tim Curry.

Tim Curry, the absolute legend, turns 80 today. This man took huge swings.

…the absolute 37 minute rabbit hole I just went down, let me tell you—

Met a pitbull named “Moose Willis” tonight, I know it doesn’t feel like it sometimes but I promise every thing will be okay eventually

Yeah but if the choice is constrained by capacity and resources, “good enough” is superior to “didn’t do it at all.” I mean I say that, and struggle with it myself, but I just keep saying “60% 100% of the time, Fox” hoping it will stick.

Today in “Tell Me Things Are Hard Without Telling Me Things Are Hard”:

I walk a lot. On Saturdays I take an extra-long walk around my part of town with my dog.

Scattered all along my route are dozens and dozens of empty vanilla extract bottles.

Be kind to each other, folks.

“The Perfect Is The Enemy of The Good,” they said, tapping the dusty sign.

I demand we let the duck in

I am reminded of the great Fran Lebowitz advice for pets: “ if your owners name you after a literary figure you should run away from home. Even an animal shouldn’t have to live with someone who would name a cat Ford Maddox Ford.”

I hate communism! I’m a white guy from Argentina and my grandparents fought against the soviets in WW2!

Worried about climate change? Destroy capitalism L.E. Fox’s new book of essays, This Book is a Knife: Radical Working-Class Strategies in the Age of Climate Change is the work of a remarkable prose stylist and acute critical thinker.

Me: My book is up for a BC-Yukon book prize!

Friend: What’s it about?

Me: … welllllll….

God I was getting yelled at by some upper middle class woman the other day because she had gone to a talk I gave and didn’t “give her anything to hope for,” and as I was standing there in wet socks cause my boots have holes in them and 43$ in my bank account I had this exact same thought on repeat.

We need a new term like "emotional labor" but for how much time and energy this country spends on a daily basis defusing and debunking one man's delusional bullshit.

Omg that looks insanely good

I hear multiple editors say "writers" are submitting AI work. Sweetie no chatbot spits out work for you that's not trash & humans who regularly read can tell it's trash. You're wasting your time in the odd event you can really break through with it. Your ambition is not to be a writer, find another.

Exactly one year ago today:

Ran a media training course for a local Indigenous-led environmental youth advocacy coalition tonight and can I just say: I am so inspired by these incredible kids. I wish I could make teaching my full time job.

Shit’s real fucked up when the Catholics start to sound like the global voice of reason

Yaaaaaaaaaaas
