You should be able to get rich being silly online instead of being evil online, that would solve a lot of problems

There is no sight that more efficiently puts the lie to immigration “court” than the common sight of children “representing themselves.” Children too small to climb into the chair, children in pajamas who don’t know where they are, children not yet old enough to speak.

Remember folks: if you have any small amount of artistic talent, any sex appeal, or can make your friends laugh, the richest man on earth is crying screaming throwing up because he can’t be you.

I've been saying this for a year now: the Democrats have missed a gigantic political opportunity--and, at this point, have failed in an ethical obligation--to create a shadow-government health department that dispenses medically accurate information, guidance, and advice.

lukewarm take: i can't stand it that service workers are being trained to say "and to you as well" when I say "have a nice day" or whatever. what's wrong with "you, too!"?!?! it was cheery and fun and sounded like a normal person, not a fucken robot!!

A massive problem today is the uneven distribution of shame. Some of us are running dedicated on-site shame servers 24/7 while others have no access to shame at all, even though they desperately need it. What we need to do is put shame in the cloud

We just accept it because it’s always been this way but ‘Ringo Starr’ is a bonkers thing to call yourself when the other guys are John, Paul, and George. It’s like having a band where everyone else uses their real name and then the drummer goes yes please call me Crackers Creamsworth

it is impossible to overstate the extent to which this country is now being run by people you would leave a party rather than talk to for five minutes
they hate music, they hate art, they hate artists, they hate pop, they hate the video games they play, they hate the movies they watch, like, they're just all the worst fucking people you've ever met, none of them believe in anything

The USPS posting a NINE BILLION DOLLAR LOSS!!! sounds terrible. Certainly worse than if you said "USPS costs thirty dollars per person per year" even though that means the same thing and more accurately describes a government service

a friend asked “how scary is it?” the answer is “not really scary.” it’s more of a modern myth. there’s some spookiness and some peril but no actual horror.

not like the ones she wrote about Wrong Deer, or Evil Fungus

My experience as well. So far we're 2-for-2 on kids having a largely bullying/abuse-free middle school experience. Not without bumpy spots of course, but light years away from what I endured.

My hot take: the anti-bullying stuff has really worked, which is why conservatives are pushing back at it.
for what it’s worth I got roped into helping out with my sixth grader’s extracurricular thing so I’ve had more recent contact with middle schoolers who aren’t mine than I usually do, and biased sample/biased reviewer/etc but my verdict is that the kids are all right

Quinn is back with an excellent Small Story. It’s got everything - Blood, mystery, family lore, and, as (almost) always, kittens.
Also, a sales pitch for her wonderful books, with a portion of proceeds going to charities.
Hello! I used to do this on Twitter. I am thinking of doing this again over here so am running experiment to see if putting up threaded stories on here is worth the extra step. If you want a non-threaded version, the entire story is at my Patreon account, not behind a paywall.
