Jordan Peterson, the personification of manliness and modern masculine intelligence, is about to die from being too manly to clean the mold in his home. bsky.app/profile/dash...

Jordan Peterson has been hospitalized with
-mold infection from not cleaning his room
-CIRS, which gives you mood swings and emotional disregulation and bouts of mania

I... Literally cannot believe this

'We're not entirely sure what's going on': Jordan Peterson taken down by moldy room, daughter raises possibility of 'spiritual attack'

It's a crying shame.

This administration is flooding the zone so furiously that people have largely lost track of the lethal attacks on boats in the Caribbean, the gov’t shutdown, the economy, failed release of the Epstein files & so much else. It’s a tactic of would-be strongmen.

An actual hot take: Too many authors are afraid of editors watering down their voice or whatever and not afraid enough of editors letting you put any old slop on the page.

Arresting Obama so the public won't see detailed evidence that Epstein was a partner in Trump's sex slavery operation.

Portland is overcast. Which seems portland-y. It definitely isn't burning, however.

Is Portland Burning?

No. See real-time Portland cameras, PulsePoint incidents, and sourced fact checks.

Wish Johnson cared enough about pregnant people to worry about the hospitals that will turn them away for fear they’ll be prosecuted for performing basic medical procedures.
