Really, if you want to keep vast sums of cash in your house while maintaining deniability, the very least you could do is keep it in a jacket with someone ELSE's name on it

As I said repeatedly during the Trump presidency and candidacy, people underestimate just how popular bigotry is. They don’t want to be called bigots, but they absolutely want to be bigots.

If, when you leave this earth, the stories that come out about you are the kindnesses you offered, not the awfulness you got away with, you did all right with your time here.

The difference between Bluesky and Twitter isn't that there are no crappy people here; this place has 840k users as of this instant, it's impossible some of them won't be trolls, creeps or malign. The difference is the ethos here is "Don't engage, just block." The moment the mask comes off, block.

goddamn Le Guin read her like a board book

Two headlines juxtaposed: Headline 1: "Workers lost $3.7 trillion in earnings during the pandemic. Women and Gen Z saw the biggest losses" Headline 2: "World's Billionaires get richer by $3.9 trillion during the pandemic

I'm not too good at math can someone help me figure this out

There's a woman in the waiting room actively plucking her chin hairs and I realize I am but a but a bog witch novice.

sounds about right

I deleted mine yesterday when I saw the X come through. It was an unexpected relief.

Unsolicited from a coworker: If you keep scowling like that your face will stay that way.
Me: Good. People should know who they're dealing with today.
He doesn't understand that I'm morphing into my final form of bog witch.

in retrospect it is kind of amazing that peewee's playhouse was allowed on TV

Texas A&M suspended a professor after a student accused her of criticizing Lt. Gov. Dan Patrick during a lecture

imo people need to stop thinking “haha what a dipshit, he didn’t even check if that was legal” and start realizing that he does not care if anything is legal

Sadly we lost sweet Rhett. Godspeed, buddy.

Someone at the office has a toaster. The smell of toast is in the air and I want it. I’ve now added a load of bread to my shopping list. Someone narc’d on the rogue toaster. I hope they stay hidden and live to toast another day. #proofficetoaster

It’s been a rough couple of days. Keep a good thought for Rhett and his recovery. This sweet boy was adopted in April of 2020 and as of Monday he was surrendered to a vet clinic across town thin as a rail, covered in fleas, and severely jaundiced. He’s had a blood transfusion and supportive care.
