Pepto Bismal should sponsor a sports league. Think:

1. Dallas Diarreah vs Boston Bowel Movements
2. Houston Heartburn vs Indianapolis Indigestion

I would love to see what these mascots would look like.

Tomorrow we celebrate our independence from a country that is higher on the freedom index than the US is. ☹️

Indeed, "Liberation Day" has liberated my IRA of 1700 dollars today already.

Can somebody please explain why Death Metal and Deathcore bands (and in this case Hardcore) use fonts that make it impossible to know the name of the band? In this case, I cannot figure out the name of the Chicago Hardcore band. #metal

I had a dream last night that Kamala Harris fronted a metal band and actually won the election. Instead of people worrying about the loss of democracy they instead were thinking, "What's going to happen to the band now?"

I guess this is to blame for the aircraft collision?

All this talk of freezing grants is generally making me scared for my employment. Although my job doesn't rely on grants, the department does, and as saying goes, "Shit rolls downhill."

I’m looking at making a spreadsheet where I post articles regarding immigration raids as a resource for folks.

A little side project I think could be helpful.

Twin Cities folks — this is gonna be a great one, get tickets before they disappear!
This is shaping up to compete with the absolute joy of last year's @nerd4cities.bsky.social event.

Get your tickets now (if you're a @thewaroncars.bsky.social Patreon supporter or @ourstreetsmn.org sustaining donor) - or wait until January 13th for general sales.
Several members of our team grabbed tickets as soon as they went live. Hope you'll consider joining us on April 24th!

Regardless of the pardon situation, since when did conservatives give a shit about people who carry guns and don't pay all of their taxes? If he would have been Trump's son he would have been a hero to the right.

There’s actually an inaccuracy in the video. I HAVE interviewed someone on the channel before — @drjpb.bsky.social — and that one is available as a Nebula Plus

Went on Fox News's website, not one single mention of tariffs despite all of the other news organizations covering it. This is why it is impossible to get through to my Trumpian father -- if Fox News doesn't tell him then it must not be true...
