Yo ho, it's hot
The sun is not
A place where we could live
But here on Earth there'd be no life
Without the light it gives

We need its light
We need its heat
We need its energy
Without the sun
Without a doubt
There'd be no you and me

- "Why Does The Sun Shine", They Might Be Giants
A 25-person startup is developing technology to block the sun and turn down the planet’s thermostat.

The stakes are huge — and the company and its critics say regulations need to catch up.

Seeing an advertisement for CBP recruitment on Reddit was kind of a shock...

Taking people's online pictures and turning them into AI wank material is really bad. Like, they should face legal consequences bad. Adding in the horror of "AI girls never say no" is just a cherry on top of the white sundae.

All of this. I hate the machine. It needs to go. I don't care how attached you are.

Very telling that, for them, being in power is more crucial than holding people accountable for crimes and abuse of power.

Ugh! 90% humidity today and my hair is just a frizzy mess. Can we please just get a cool front and some rain? *Checks forecast* huh. Ok, yes. Rain by Friday is a definite possibility.

I hate when 5:00 rolls around, and I still have half an hour of work left, and I ran out of spoons an hour ago...

There is no call to make human Applejack that hot. No. Call.

Keep doing it...

Make this go viral so every member of the House of Representatives sees it.

Once again @magicariot.com knocks it out of the park. Full Bloom is brimming with heart, song and love. And so, so much gay. It does my lesbian heart good to see stories like this out there in the world.

Thank you, Ms. Buchanan, for sharing your magical girls with us.

Reading Magica Riot: Full Bloom! I'm super excited to see what happens with my favorite band of queer Magical girls.

Health insurance is a scam, as is the idea that you need to work to "earn a living". None of us chose to be here. If you exist, you have the right to shelter, food, community and to be free from exploitation. UBI and single payer health coverage should be universal.
"my least woke opinion is---"

That's enough. We've had enough people indulging in the "thrill of a little conservatism", as a treat. Of considering reactionary thought to be a salacious and taboo in a world descending into reactionary mania.

Give me your MOST woke opinions. We're bringing it back.

This is cool. I'm an atheist, and I firmly believe that religions are actually bad for society, but it is a good thing that Judaism is so accepting of queer and GNC people.
More (51%) non-Orthodox rabbinical students are queer or trans (LGBTQ) than NOT, according to a new survey.

12% are nonbinary (58% women, 30% men)

16% are Jews by choice

12% ID as a race other than white.
What the first major study of the US rabbinate reveals - Jewish Telegraphic Agency
The rabbinate is older, happier and more diverse than previously known, according to the study.

Ways to know that your transition is going better than you thought:

Run into a former coworker and have them fail to recognize you.

Well, that was an interesting hole to fall down.

Thank you @impossiblephd.bsky.social for sharing your story on Substack. Sure I'm a few years late in reading that, but it still hit me right in the feels.

My wife was much like yours. When I came out to her, she barely blinked.

God, I wish...

At least Cheney is dead.
Dick is gone, Bush remains.
November 4, 2025 at 5:32 PM
It seems wonderfully appropriate to celebrate Dick Cheney's final gasps by going out and voting. Do the thing that he worked so hard to make harder.

The more I see of this man, the more I am tempted to move to NYC. I'd hate it, but damn.
