We shouldn't have extended the internet to everyone. It should only be available to nerds and weirdos who either build up an immunity to Online Madness or remain naturally confined to forums where their Online Madness can't reach the average citizen.

Apparently a yellow jacket queen decided my sewing room was a great place to hibernate. She was wrong.

always remember: Terry Pratchett said trans rights

this book was written in 1996 by a 48 year old British man and no cis person in 2025 has a single goddamn excuse to behave differently

can’t believe we still need to say that just because trump said “quiet, piggy” it is not okay to repeat it in his direction. how do people still not understand that it is not okay to show that you think fatphobia is okay as long as it’s directed at someone you don’t like/think is a bad person!

Wearing a mask at your medical appointments is important not just to protect yourself, and to protect other patients, but also to protect the ever-dwindling number of healthcare providers.

The people helping us all live healthier lives deserve health protection, too.

Poverty is a policy choice. Concentrated wealth is a policy choice. Inequality is a policy choice. None of it is natural or inevitable. Remember: We have the power to build a system that serves the many, not the powerful few.

Sure, I can Google, but I'd rather hear from folks about their tried and trues:

I am looking for a pistachio muffin recipe that uses pistachio paste and not pudding mix.

I will also accept any other recipes that use pistachio paste, because I have a pretty big jar of it lol

"Gilded Age" would be significantly more appropriate
Riding the high of Trump's latest tax cuts, corporations are seeing record profits and will make over $1.1T in stock buybacks this year — an all-time high.

Meanwhile, layoffs have totaled 1.1M so far in 2025 — the highest level since the pandemic.

"New Golden Age" for whom?
