Many of you may have heard that trans girls are now banned from Girlguiding in the United Kingdom, their version of the Girl Scouts as we know them in the United States.
It is a cruel new low in a country that has treated trans people horrifically in recent years.
The latest from S. Baum.

Sure, at the US Naval Academy, they definitely teach you how to recognize the difference between something that's floating normally and something that's floating because it's full of cocaine. The Ol' Coke Float, they call it. Classic bit of naval officer training, indispensable, really.

This might make me a freak, but when I was working retail I really liked working the days leading up to major holidays (just not the holidays themselves, please let me go home to see my family).

being visited by three spirits to learn the true meaning of Thanksgiving but they're the spirits of Wampanoag people who died of smallpox and it's a straight up horror story
I keep starting and deleting grinchy Thanksgiving posts, because I'm not really trying to kill anyone's vibe, but if you also find this holiday just entirely uninteresting, come sit here by me.

Something I don't enjoy is going in to check a lump, getting the report back saying the lump is probably benign, and then reading that actually though the imaging found a different, slightly larger lump but they didn't fully image that area so please come back for another round of everything.

There is a post circulating on Bluesky encouraging the moving of a frozen turkey straight into a pot of hot oil. We are combating this misinformation the best way we know how - through the power of dance music.

Nobody will ever know my laptop experienced an unfortunate scratching incident from the charger prongs because I have cleverly fixed it forever with my precious @katieaki.bsky.social sticker. I add one sticker a year, normally in December, but this was an emergency so this year's sticker is early.

Okay, this makes so much sense. It drives me nuts hearing similar but wrong words used by (almost always) younger people, and it's really been baffling. But if they are taught to read by saying "just guess the word that makes sense" then those words are basically identical in their brain. Yikes.
They don't use spellcheckers: they go straight to the nearest word they already know that *sounds* most similar. So their vocabulary remains small, and imprecise or inaccurate use of words is normalised.
And if your entire peer group has been trained to the same standards, who will correct you?
