"You have such an expressive face."
I... do not know how to take this. I never have. I've heard variations of it multiple times throughout my life, usually after I've unmasked the neurodivergence a little too much and gone on an enthusiastic infodump about something I'm passionate about. 🤣

My wife: "I don't even know what an emdash is for"
Me: "It's like a fancy comma that adds emphasis, mostly used by people with expensive degrees. Idk, English is full of weird grammar that's mostly rots in unicode archives these days. You know, like the interrobang"
Wife: "WTF is an interrobang?!"

The right-wing backlash against #Superman this week got me thinking: Has this happened before?
That led to the discovery of these headline — from April 1940, when the official newspaper of the SS took umbrage at the comic book hero and ridiculed its creators.

I yearn for a time when we can replace 'suicide prevention' with 'common courtesy'. It's awful that we're forced to resort to the 'suicide prevention' reason. Yes, it's a valid reason to use people's names/pronouns, but what kind of society has to be reminded of such extremes to do the bare minimum?
We need this around the world

I somehow missed that Dan Savage was on Bluesky now. If you missed the memo, consider this your reminder that Dan Savage is a racist transphobe who has allied himself with Jesse Singal (!) and written racist screeds attacking Black people while dismissing the racism of white gays.

Actual psychologist here, and there are 2 things I would like to point out:
1. This sort of "we tried our best / we weren't so bad" is very much a classic move of the awful authoritarian and/or narcissistic parent, they've always done this and social media has allowed them more reach 🧵

It's almost like the 'liberal media' is owned by a bunch of right wing Trump worshipping rich fascists who don't give a rat's ass about reality and only care about further inflating their wallets at the cost of the rest of the population.

If the New York Times was waiting for a news hook to write a long-overdue story about how Trump is mentally unfit to be president, Trump has provided one today with his post saying Rob Reiner got murdered because he was mean to Trump.
