In the US, it’s National Library Workers’ Day, and I would be remiss to let it pass without reminding you that the “library workers are magic” narrative leads bad places. Love, respect, and cherish them, but also pay them, staff libraries appropriately, and let them draw boundaries.

kimahri is such a photogenic lad.
The way folks desperately need the real-world villains to be somehow cognitively compromised because otherwise it means they themselves could be a real-world villain.
Just sanist ableism things.
What I expect is for the Democrats to listen to me without all *this* bullshit groveling. They work for me. Never gonna bootlick for a party like this.

I smoked up and took the cats out into the backyard (fenced, supervised) for their favorite thing: Outside Time. We basked in the sun and 79 freaking degrees!
As a candidate for U.S. Senate, I support the legalization of marijuana use.

"Pa. court recognizes ‘reproductive autonomy’ as a right, strikes down ban on public funding for abortion"
"In a 4-3 ruling, the Commonwealth Court found that abortion access is a fundamental right guaranteed by the Pennsylvania Constitution."
Regular reminder: police are despicable cowards
All women too.
Now only one female cabinet member in the Trump administration (Secretary of Agriculture); maybe two if you count the Secretary of the Department of Ed that doesn't exist anymore.
Not defending those who are gone but they aren't any worse than ones who are still there who just happened to be men
Evergreen reminder this 420: No one should be in prison for weed.
this is one of the most offensive things I've seen in years
Forbes is gamifying news about the horrific mass shooting in Shreveport, LA this weekend, encouraging readers to bet on the likelihood of gun regulation with fake money via its "ForbesPredict" feature.
Eight children were murdered in the shooting.

Yeah, I've seen this happen, and it is scary. Always, always, always check for a UTI if confusion/hallucinations occur. It can be cleared up so easily, but it is frightening when you don't know what's wrong and it feels like your family member is changing for no reason

Glad you're ok!
I am neither elevating or degrading robotics.
I *am* advocating for responsible media reporting around tech. Which I've stated clearly several times. Last warning, stick to that topic or catch a block
This just in: Shipyard crane beats world record Olympic deadlift! Truly, the Age of Flesh is at an end. More on this story after a word from our Techbro sponsors.
That is the kind of ghost one wishes for. Properly complimentary of the household pets
That cat is watching a ghost, holy shit
LOL.
Marathons only matter bc they're physically difficult for *humans.* No one gives a fuck if a robot runs a marathon because it cannot suffer or strive. Chess and go only matter because of the *humans* who invented and play them. The humanity is the important part.
Again, who cares? It's *human* challenges that make marathons important to humans.
*My* point was that when media dehumanizes specifically human things to the benefit of tech, I am not ok with that.
If you want to talk about tech challenges? Valid. But do it on your own skyline
WHAT'S HER NAME?
WHAT'S HER NAME, MOTHERFUCKER?
