“Hello,” said Frog.

“Look at my list of things to do,” said Toad.

“Oh,” said Frog, “that is very nice.”

Toad said, “My list tells me that we will go for a walk.”

So now that the Eppstein files have been released with more blackouts than me in my first year of college, it's worth noting that, while it sure would be neat ti have un-redacted as fuck files, we'd be less hung up on them if we just, you know, believed women.

But that's a bridge too fucking far.

'The Democratic National Committee won’t release a review of its election loss in 2024, saying it would be a “distraction” from helping the party win going forward.'

Translation: "We're not going to change a goddamned thing."

Democrats won’t release 2024 election loss ‘autopsy’, DNC chair says
Report on Kamala Harris’s loss to Trump would be a ‘distraction’ as party is ‘putting our learnings into motion’

"Say what you will about our financial, educational, nonprofit and political elites, but they are not mass rapists."

What an interesting turn of phrase from one of our so-called "political elites."
One small way to try to re-establish social trust would be to transparently disclose *in this very column* that you hung out with Jeffrey Epstein.

Verify Palestinians by talking to them! You don't have to wait for an authority. They will make themselves very available to you if you need proof they're real. They will talk to you here & on other apps. Stop acting like you can't help people unless they have an official seal of approval.

On the whole, I think I'd prefer the timeline where everything is being slowly devoured by weevils.

Always say balls deep in dinosaurs whenever you have a chance to; that's just common sense.

This morning I'm wondering if the literally kiloliters of semen flooding the holodeck on a daily basis are just routed directly into the matter replicators or not.

Gentle reminder that BDS - Boycott, Divest, Sanction - is something that every one of us should be doing for Palestine, Sudan, and Congo. It's easy. Just don't buy Israeli products or brands that support the Occupation. Don't go to Dubai or fly Emirates. Don't buy gold or new consumer electronics.

Super glad to see the Guardian stepping up to defend me from *checks notes* a pretty awesome band who managed to land on the right side of history. Thanks guys!

Maybe this is just me, but dropping a slur and following it with “I am racist, and I’ll say it to the whole entire world" really seems like the sort of thing you should lose your job over, and trying to turn it into a question of "worker solidarity" is fucking disingenuous as fuck.
“Those of us on the left should be fighting to improve protections for workers of all races, and thereby for the betterment of people’s material conditions regardless of their views,” Arash Azizi argues:
Why the Cinnabon Story Doesn’t Make Me Happy
The left should be promoting working-class solidarity, not delighting in seeing workers summarily dismissed.

Yes, because right now I and a person of wealth have access to identical fucking healthcare options. Fucking identical.

How many times were you dropped on your head as a child?
Are you ok with rich people having access to the most expensive doctors and hospitals and you don't because the gov won't pay for it or they opted out of the Universal care program ?

Do you think it's right for doctors and nurses to only work for what they think is a living wage ?

It's a little discouraging when someone who I've blocked and unfollowed on a number of defunct social media accounts manages to find and block me here, before I'd thought to get around to it myself. I feel as though I've lost, somehow.

So I guess with the general situation being super quiet and boring and uneventful we're arguing about the Falklands for some reason?
