Elementary, my queer Watson.

Luxon surviving a confidence vote is less about his fitness for the job and more about the unfitness of his caucus, who lack even the minimal amount of spine needed to roll the most inept PM we’ve seen in my lifetime.

A plant-shaped dildo with distinct concentric leaves on a windowsill among real plants.

the same plant toy on a banister among some gems and plants, with the outer layer of leaves peeled away to reveal another layer.

the same plant again hanging in a blue macrame sling, with both layers of leaves peeled away to reveal a central stem and bulb. it's in a terra cotta colored silicone pot.

Aloe Virile is available! It's a plant-themed dildo, dilator, and training toy that lets you choose its girth. It's my most advanced design to date, and a perfect way to celebrate ten years making silicone toys for you all.

We are looking at a painting of St Liphardus - a 6th-century lawyer, hermit and abbot in Meung-sur-Loire near Orléans, France. He is wearing bishops clothing including a surplus and mitre and is holding a crook. On a lead is a small knee high green and blue dragon.

We’re very sorry sir but you cannot bring your emotional support dragon in here.

Fuuuun, the power just went off

There are absolutely uses for machine learning: don't get me wrong. It's great at pattern recognition: eDNA analysis for example.

(Some of those uses are also scary as hell.)

I said what I said the way I said it for a reason.

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.

You can tell I spend too much time on Tumblr because every time I see a black cat's face pointed upward I say "See Him Face!"

This is a particularly excellent example, with hunting stare and visible fang tips on Him Face.

The Free Speech Coalition is serious about starting an adult industry credit union. Part of this is being able to show regulators that enough people would use it, so please fill out this form if you're interested!

On top of reasons of role deconstruction and bodily autonomy, this is one reason why it's so important to many people in power to eradicate trans folk.

If you're secure with yourself, feeling good BEING yourself, they can't tell you you're broken and then sell you a "fix"

Turns out converting currencies in Google sheets is so much easier than I expected.
I will now be doing this for all my spreadsheets where I've just had to place holder currency conversion

And the Lord spake unto the Angel that guarded the eastern gate, saying 'Where is the flaming sword that was given unto thee?'

Exactly one year ago today:

I may not trust whatever author profile photo your university made you get, but I do trust you if you drop $50+ for a profile pic of your fursona and use it.

LRS: I hope science communicators know that having a fursona as their profile pic is worth at least one link to a reputable study/paper/article on whatever they're talking about.

GOOD NEWS! Researchers have made a HUGE breakthrough towards a UNIVERSAL antiviral. By targeting sugar molecules found on the surface of many viruses that SHARE structural similarities, they identified FOUR compounds that successfully BLOCKED infections from SEVEN different viruses.

And the woman did speak unto the hound, saying, What do you mean, normal men, and the hound answered the woman, saying, We are just innocent men. And great was her emotion

My local pharmacy offers both (💕), so I actually did them a couple of weeks ago.

BLUESKY IS A WEBSITE THAT TURNS (post by jay.bsky.team claiming that bluesky is made with AI) INTO (picture of bluesky not working)

this also highlights a huge point: USification edits often change meaning. Great Barrier Island is extremely remote, it has no electricity. Most of its tiny population live there because they don't want to deal with modern society. Does that say the same about a character as Rhode Island?

all these universities kept axing medieval history departments as if they thought tyrants beefing with the Pope was going to stop being relevant

Good thread from a human on the linguistics behind "it's not X, it's Y"
