I have height dysphoria in the opposite direction you’d except like I want to be 6’ 2” if we’re doing the tall girl thing let’s go all the way here people

I’m the same height and it’s so wild to me that my entire life I towered over every other girl in my class like some kind of freak but if I ever became a guy I’d just be…average.

A key part of the banality of evil is that fascism trains people who are boringly and completely neurotypical to be incredibly violent, as part of their boring job.

It literally could not possibly work if it could only be done by the tiny fraction of the population with cluster B syndromes.

guess norovirus is woke now, folks

it’s a great day for transphobes to eat shit

I took this way too literally when I first read it and I pictured all the trans people jumping up and down until they caused a seismic event.

So, open eugenics.

This is true. No one wants to admit COVID still exists or ever existed. Quite incredible. Where are the huge conferences dedicated to COVID, like there still is for HIV?

a digital collage of karl-peter schmidt, a blond man with square glasses wearing a tan business suit and carrying a suitcase with worn-out stickers on it, standing in front of a wall with pink floral wallpaper and light wood paneling. he has a goofy smirk on his face. also behind him is a giant ornate picture frame holding a mountain scene. he is surrounded by smiley face stamps and stickers, along with cutouts reading "believe it or not this is a normal guy (arrow pointing to him)," "100%," and "nothing about this man is very strange at all. please proceed as usual. thank you!"

don't worry! he's Normal 🙂

This. N95’s can save lives from wildfire smoke. The scientific evidence of the damage caused by Particulate matter is clear and terrifying.

they’re just saying words now

Hate coming up with official names for stuff which is why all the shit in Substrate is just called “The Incident“ and “The Program“ and “The System“ and everyone just implicitly knows what you’re talking about and that it’s Evil.

advertising technology in the 1990s: look at this “website” you can “surf”. it has an image of a cat on it

advertising technology in the 2020s: you must adopt this now or die. we are going to completely kill you if you don’t download this app immediately

Every AI commercial gaslights you into thinking you're an idiot. Before you had access to AI you were too stupid to find your girlfriend's makeup, or boil an egg, or pick a shirt. Every commercial starts from the premise of "Hey, so you know how you're the dumbest fucking fuck to ever do it?"

Watching Palantir do Sephiroth posting about multiculturalism and I would like to remind everyone that they were doing corporate fake woke shit just like every other company.

the pope is not woke. american conservative christianity has spent the last few decades mutating into an evil doppelgänger of itself such that any conservative christian leader who says things like “it’s wrong to incinerate schoolchildren” scans as a titan of superhuman moral fiber.

Every AI commercial is like "Hey AI, what goes good on a sandwich?" and then the AI is like "Have you considered... cheese?" And then the narrator is like: THE FUTURE IS HERE.

My kingdom for actually being able to feel good and positive and excited about new technological advances again instead of just thinking about how they’re gonna get used to erode human rights or something

Look, for my money the absolute game changer technologies right now are batteries and biosciences, not statistically modeling a mid conversation, but you do you.

2026 limited color character portrait a blue snake person sits behind a desk in a cluttered narrow shop interior. He pushes away a screen/aquarium from his workspace and pauses with his hand over his keyboard to greet you. around the shop, bubbles, fish, waves, scales, and light all trespass their containers.

RFK is an existential threat to the life and health of everyone on this planet and nobody is taking that seriously enough
