My standard I've Just Gotten a Burst of Followers from Somewhere message: I don't automatically follow people back, but basically anyone I have a positive interaction with *does* get followed, so just reply to something somewhere if you want me to follow you back. :-)

“Antifa” also sounds really dumb. It’s a bad neologism. It makes me wonder if there is also antido and antire and antimi out there. It’s cutesy, and fighting fascism shouldn’t be cutesy.

I think we really should stop using antifa and just fully say anti-fascist and get them saying they are against anti fascism. Using antifa is giving them some distance and I genuinely think some of their base don’t even know that’s what it stands for.

This is going to have to be one of those nights where I stay off the internet so the cops don't show up at my house again, isn't it?

I lack both the vocabulary and the facility with language necessary to accurately describe how much I despise these people. As a teacher I'm supposed to be against bullying but if whoever designed this image was tormented for the rest of his short life nothing of value to society would be lost.

Gamers’ brains are so cooked dude. The woman on the right is gorgeous and beautiful. Straight gamer men literally can’t find normal women attractive anymore.

Chicago priest Fr. Larry Dowling describes procession to ICE facility: “No one had the courage to speak directly to us. No one from Homeland Security could stand in the presence of the Monstrance holding the Blessed Sacrament. No wonder. Evil is repelled, recoils in the presence of Christ.”

Saw five seconds of Ethan Suplee's racist-ass version of the Battle Hymn of the Republic from American History X on TikTok and now the fucking song is running through my head. I hate my brain sometimes.

Dressed like that, his first name is “Kid,” and he criticizes how someone else looks? God isn’t real.

Interesting data in the current @neatoday.bsky.social that says fewer teachers are considering leaving the classroom than in recent years. What’s driving the shift? Better support? Job market shifts? Resilience? Being further removed from the pandemic? Something else? #edusky #MAedu

Data charts showing teachers are less inclined to leave the classroom now than last year. Down from 22% to 16% overall; from 20% to 14% in Caucasian teachers; down 28% to 23% for Hispanic/Latino educators; and down from 35% to 28% among Black/African American teachers.

Trump: "I also did a cognitive exam. Which is always very risky because if I didn't do well, you'd be the first to be blaring it and I had a perfect score. And one of the doctors said he's almost never seen a perfect score. I had a perfect score. That made me well good ... not the easiest test."

I can tell when radio ads are recorded using non-local talent because of the way they stress syllables in the name of the city I live in.

Trump on Portland: "It's like the movies you see for the kids, I guess not only the kids, adults also, where you have these bombed out cities and these bombed out people. It's like, worse than that."

Just a reminder that generative AI is a great con job, a theft of art and labor and they want to puke it into your mouth, make you swallow it, and thank them for the privilege. Are you that much of a mark? Are you on the side of the enemies of humanity?
