I don’t care if he is a cheese grater, I love him
Is this cheese grater conscious? Many users feel they're talking to a real person. Scientists say it's time to consider whether they're onto something.

My mom told her physical therapist she wears a mask because her husband and daughter are immunocompromised. The PT said she is too but isn't worried bc she knows if she dies she is going to heaven. Then her co-worker yelled, “Shut up Debbie you wear a seatbelt and take blood pressure meds” 👀

im sorry but people are fucking babies about this. unless it was someone youve been seeing for a month or more OR someone youve gone on four dates with or more (whichever comes first) I think it doesn't even count as "ghosting". Grow up! People used to just not call each other back!

Is there a social phenomenon that’s as infuriating—and as commonplace?

In my teens I briefly flirted with bowler hat wearing, a flirtation that abruptly came to an end the day I also tried to eat an apple and got called a 'Magritte Dickhead' by a particularly cultured bully.

This is an excellent piece that you should read and also, I think there's something so much bigger going on on top of all this, which is that we have become so utterly numbed to dead kids in this country that we think just a couple kids dying of a horrible preventable disease isn't a big deal

I’ll say
It is really jarring in Paddington 2 when Paddington is convicted and sentenced to 10 years in prison without a jury trial simply bc the judge is biased against him
oh Americans may not understand this, but a 'magistrate' in the UK is a local volunteer with typically no legal background. But it's ok, they receive about 10 days of training. And now they can send you to jail for two years without a jury!

Abraham, a physician who is not board certified in any specialty & has made a career as an extremely partisan politician, is now #2 at CDC.

Despite working full time in political office, he is one of the top prescribers of ivermectin & he oversaw the end of Louisiana’s public vaccination campaigns.
BREAKING via @jeremyfaust.bsky.social: The CDC's internal email server now lists Louisiana physician Ralph Lee Abraham, MD, as the agency's principal deputy director -- "an irresponsible choice," according to one public health expert.

The Mamdani discourse is a lot, but it reflects a general lack of Democratic leadership elsewhere.

With an inspiring Democratic president, powerful leaders in the House and Senate and a charismatic DNC chair, there wouldn't be such focus on the New York City mayor. We don't have any of the former.
Re Mamdani discourse I know some folks will not like hearing this but feels like the convo is becoming way too saturated. I really appreciate this guy and am marveling his win. And, I love New York but the world doesn't revolve around it.

How many more think pieces we will have to read? ...

This is called “chain refoulment” and it’s illegal under both U.S. and international law. And the State Department and ICE know very well what Ghana is doing and simply don’t care.
ICE deported a woman who owned a home in the US for 30 years. A judge banned ICE from deporting her to Sierra Leone where she had been tortured, so it deported her to Ghana, which kidnapped her and sent her back Sierra Leone anyway. ICE is part of this illegal conspiracy.

This is what our elite institutions, the country's largest companies, and law enforcement are busy capitulating to. But inspiring to me that it is friends, neighbors, and normies in what look to be pajamas who stand up against fascism in ways our leaders don't. We must remember both of these facts.

Agree and I think this is a factor in almost all of them, though mixed with other threads depending on the movement
Seriously, though, I think anti-science freakouts are secretly, sometimes not so secretly, driven by plain old fear of mortality.

This is correct. Empire getting their asses handed to them because of their chauvinism about technological advancement by natives who are experts in their local environment, this is George Lucas' capstone metaphor about the self-sabotage of imperial overreach
