Just had a meeting with a potential project sponsor and they said "we could maybe let you play with a bulldozer" (paraphrasing). So anyway... ⚒️

one of the interesting thing i have seen in the platner discourse is a refusal to confront a thing on its own terms. to his pundit supporters, platner isn’t a novice candidate with perhaps questionable judgment to be evaluated on his ability to win, but a symbol to wield against rivals

I'm a cis woman and progesterone saved my life. I am exceedingly fortunate that when I needed it I could obtain it and have it covered by my ACA insurance. it's not like I NEEDED to personally experience it in order to support trans healthcare, but it made me very grateful my state didn't police it

I have some bad news for all you cis women voting and working to ban HRT. You are going to NEED that shit when you hit peri/menopause. All of our struggles for bodily autonomy against a fascist cisheteropatriarchy are connected.

I'll die on the hill that straight white male identity politics should be known as fratriarchy and that most any other identity politics can be understood as a response to its abjections

apparently it’s time for another reminder that straight white men also have identity politics, *even the ones on the left*, and we are seeing that very much in action with regards to the Pod Save America bros defending fellow bro Graham Platner

Giant Australian cuttlefish are now hatching in South Australia’s Upper Spencer Gulf Marine Park. To mitigate the risk from the harmful algal bloom, the State and Federal governments installed a bubble curtain to protect more than 50,000 eggs.

OK. There is a list, but you have to go to the video description. It was pinned by the video authors, but I note that it was not of their doing -- they let someone else do the footwork for them.

Ahh, simply listing the 135 titles in some sort of order wouldn't be nearly clever enough. No, the authors of said list expect you to watch their video--with a runtime in excess of 2 hours--if you really want to know.

I guess I'm just not enough of a cinephile to pass their test.

The nutty thing abt Trump telling ranchers they don't understand their business: 27% of ranchers and farmers rely on ACA exchanges.

www.kff.org/affordable-c...
Trump tweet saying: The Cattle Ranchers, who I love, don’t understand that the only reason they are doing so well, for the first time in decades, is because I put Tariffs on cattle coming into the United States, including a 50% Tariff on Brazil. If it weren’t for me, they would be doing just as they’ve done for the past 20 years — Terrible! It would be nice if they would understand that, but they also have to get their prices down, because the consumer is a very big factor in my thinking, also! I've interspersed, "27% of ranchers and farmers rely on ACA exchanges"

People act like all the men are gone. The men are attending protests. The men are putting together scooters for their kids. The men are getting a set of turntables for the first time. The men are buying Nikes. The men are getting super into noir. They're not Nazis and they're fine. Keep your freaks.
