The Google AI results at the top of searches are so pointless. We have a resource (the internet!) that knows everything, and instead of going to the source, it's like you asked your stupid cousin who is trying to recall the information from a podcast he heard last week.

I fucked up someone’s pronouns yesterday (no excuse, I fucked up) and a poster kindly reminded me of the correct ones.
Listen. You can correct me on that anytime. Correct me on my birthday. Correct me on my deathbed.
Because despite what terrible people say, your identity MATTERS.

At the EPA, employees hired within the past year have been notified that “the agency reserves the right to terminate you immediately,” without justification. Reports suggest that demonstrating loyalty to the current administration’s agenda may improve the chances of retaining employment.

Baldur’s Gate 3 and Dreamlight Valley… things are about to get freaky in the valley.
Alright, so let's say the last TWO video games you played will be combined into an all-new game...
What kind of insane crossover did you just create? 👀

Just saw a no-longer relevant evacuation notice on instagram from five hours ago and remembered — that’s right, due to hyper-monetization every major social network no longer shows you life-saving breaking news as it happens.
They turned it over to an algorithm that finally noticed “he likes fire.”

On MSNBC just now, journalist Lee Hedgepeth said he has witnessed multiple executions and never seen one as violent. It was not seconds but many minutes.

This is an amazing story. Houston criminalized feeding the homeless, Food not Bombs continued to do so, the city has ticketed them dozens of times and occasionally arrested members but hasn’t been able to get a single conviction. www.houstonchronicle.com/news/houston...
Food Not Bombs trial rescheduled after too many jurors objected to $500 fine for feeding homeless
Roughly 90 tickets have been issued since March to volunteers with the loosely organized Food Not Bombs, which serves meals to people in need.
