We are living in the Gilded Age 2.0, so it fits…sadly

TIL Autocorrect has a soul…and that soul wants to write bad fiction

Sometimes I get dragged into dumb conversations on Reddit. It is genuinely perplexing to me that there are people who think women who are doctors cannot ever be misogynistic. My experience of OB/GYN docs suggests otherwise. I was told that saying this is saying “gender doesn’t matter.”

That his first name is Markwayne might be a red flag lol

This display of a mine troll’s treasures is at a mining museum in Finland. The exhibits included tons of clear didactics that explained history & technology as well as several whimsical areas dedicated to the resident troll. This strikes me as just absolutely Finnish.

Small booklet title page saying the wax last supper

Attended a zine-making workshop at NAAS 2025. We sat in companionable silence, listening to music, coloring, cutting, and pasting. It was a fun, relaxing, and refreshing way to think through the material I was presenting the next day. Definitely going to use this in the classroom #NAASpirations

Forgive the wonky picture. This lil guy at the National Museum in Stockholm is a wax portrait. Wax portraiture was much more common than you might think and it’s my current research obsession. Sadly there was no label on the case for this so I have no idea who he was.

Imagine if Biden had issued such an order. Just imagine. These people are trying to silence any disagreement with their political goals. And their political goals are power, not evidence-based public services.

The lack of self awareness in that article is kind of miraculous

White South African “refugees”

We are in the upside down

I would guess this is on purpose

I really don’t understand why so many people want to see democracy in the US destroyed. I understand that self interest drives the billionaire class towards oligarchy. But honestly Joe the Plumber isn’t going to benefit from the destruction of all our civic institutions.

I know I should probably not be shocked, but I am

@nytimes.com once again demonstrating that canceling my subscription was the right move

Saddam Hussein would be encouraging of lil Donny Two Dolls, junior despot

He consistently violated the emoluments clause throughout his first White House rampage as well. Our system was built and maintained by people who did not ask themselves “what would stop a shameless psychopath from robbing this system blind?”

Maybe if he had to show up at the office every day it would be easier for him to stay on task? He is clearly not good at working from home.

For once I agree with this guy: he is not qualified to head the FBI

Hey DOGE I found your waste and fraud

I don’t think it’s ever been a secret to anyone who paid the slightest attention

“The democrats” are using fear to control people. Uh huh, that’s right. It’s not at all the regime claiming all immigrants are gang members. 🙄

Gentle reminder that the daily propaganda mouthpiece of the CCCP was called Pravda- aka Truth.

The fact that Trump calls his daily screed factory “Truth” could not point to a more obvious conclusion.

The most ineffective boss I ever had would do the same thing: pile titles on one individual who was good at sucking up to him. Neither the boss or the person with 10 titles was good at any one of their nominative jobs.

Look. The President could issue an executive order that the moon is made of green cheese. That doesn’t mean the moon is now made of green cheese. Can we stop acting like it does?

I’m convinced that the Constitutional crisis began ye instant that DOGE became a thing. We’ve been in crisis for months.

It’s baffling that someone would not be embarrassed by this. Lol
