Gotta get the pin back up there.

Rest in peace, Franny pea. I love you so much. 🌈🐇

A rabbit yawning under a cardboard tunnel on a white background. All caps black text reads "why is it always thinking" with a brain emoji underneath. It is implied that the bunny is screaming at the brain.

Have you ever eaten overcooked, mushy, cold spaghetti with a dirty fork after getting home from a 14 hour shift where people screamed at you because the chefs put cheddar cheese on their nachos instead of cheddar AND pepper jack cheese?

Go look at this sub it is a fucking gift.

A picture of some scrambled eggs on top of a piece of toast. It is artfully plated on a disposable paper plate. It is titled:

"Yesterday my scrambled eggs were oversalted. This morning they were undersalted. I have to kill myself."

This subreddit is golden thank you onion person

A reddit post with some absolutely awful spaghetti in meal prep containers titled:

Decided to get into meal prepping and just made 7 days worth of the most absolute dogshit pasta I've ever tasted. Now I have to come home from my horrible minimum wage job everyday and sit down and forcefeed myself this slop like a good little slave. I'm 24 years old and I've never kissed a girl.

Hi hello did you know that Elon Musk's third Neuralink patient (previously nonverbal) is "getting help from Grok" to communicate

and I hope -- I REALLY HOPE -- he's not stuck in his own brain listening as a robot talks for him without his input because this, to me, would be worse than death

This patient’s Neuralink brain implant gets a boost from generative AI

A patient who types with his brain thanks to a Neuralink implant is using AI chatbots to speed things up.

The illegal fence in front of ICE is set to come down Tuesday by midnight. Help me stay through Wednesday to cover it!

Currently headed to my third protest of the day, so watch for updates.

The vet gave him some pain meds and fluids and he ended up making some poo last night and he's been eating lots all day today :)

Thank you though!

I don’t know who needs to hear this but the CDC is being eviscerated right now. America is not going to have any kind of outbreak response capacity after tonight. Americans’ health data is no longer secure. Say goodbye to federal public health in any capacity. It’s a disaster. We won’t recover.

Do they really think they can reclassify a laundry list of technologies that have real, practical and impactful use cases because they "circumvent" the problem **they** created?

I'm so tired.

Mike Stabile @mikestabile.bsky.social · 2d

Buried in Michigan's antiporn bill is a provision to effectively outlaw "circumvention tools," such as VPNs.

Mark my words: legislators will increasingly leverage porn panic to restrict or ban VPNs, and to limit internet privacy far beyond adult sites.

Experts raise privacy concerns over Michigan bill targeting pornography and VPNs

Rep. Josh Schriver, the bill’s sponsor, says the law is designed to target only producers and distributors of pornography, not everyday internet users.

When they're in pain they don't loaf like this or purr. They'll usually sit in weird positions, constantly shift, not allow you to pet them or become agitated when you try, or they'll grind their teeth in a loud, grating fashion. That's not an exhaustive list but it's a few common ways to tell.

They literally sprayed teargas in the vent of his costume. Sadistic torture for being mocking the fuhrur and his storm troopers; only that.

And you know that happened? The frogs multiplied.

That's in Future Rick Perlstein's book.
