I have visualized where this bus was in relation to where it should have been. That was one lost bus.

Big bus stuck (Near Lawrence KS, but nowhere near any bus route that I'm aware of)

here, then, is what to tell people: rowling has decided to make eliminating trans people from public space her life’s work. as such, of every dollar you spend on wizarding world material, some portion will go toward that goal; this will not change. but whether you participate is up to you

Novel idea: what if we did some actual appreciation for these good goobies instead of defiling their names to insult our least favorite politicians? My vote goes to the horseshoe crab, for many reasons including their groundbreaking gifts to medical science via their copper-based blood :)

Invertebrate of the year 2026: vote for your favourite

Such a shame that every actor that was going to be in it fell in a vat of poo, caught fire, was run over by a tank, exploded, and died forever, so we can't ever go see any movies with them in ever again. Such a shame. Remember them as they were before they died in poo, flat, on fire, exploded.

The push for Harry Potter the TV show is going to be completely enormous—they're debuting it on fucking Christmas—and it is the responsibility of TV critics to contextualize this as rewarding the world's most transphobic billionaire (which is saying something) in everything we write about it.

It is utterly damning of this country that a "Check If Your Salad or Your Guacamole is Especially Likely to Make Your Ass Explode" app is necessary, but since it is, I guess it's a good thing one exists

people will be like "well homeschooling worked great for me" and like sure, ok, I don't doubt it, but religious conservatives are raising swarms of children who can't read and don't know what the sun is and I think we may need to return to a seatbelt-mandate-style solution to this issue

It doesn't even require carceral tactics. Imagine the reaction to footage of an armed deputation from the workers' council seizing boxes of files at Tesla HQ and escorting Elon off the premises, or Hawai'ian natives reclaiming Zuck's beach estate and gently but firmly depositing him outside the gate

We need the instincts of a filthy-minded showman when it comes to breaking and destroying our corrupt MAGA class. give em a little razzle-dazzle as we lead a weeping and pants-shitting Elon Musk by a chain around his neck into the little piss-scented cell where he has been sentenced to die alone

What are you forcing Big Balls to listen to I think I'm going for the John Mulaney Salt and Pepper Diner Special. "What's New Pussycat" x 100, "It's Not Unusual" x 1, then right back to "What's New Pussycat."

A question from Reddit that I'll answer here: "What's the most unhinged thing a doctor has said to you with a straight face?"

i started this train of thought as a joke but now i do think there's something to the idea that the way to sell the green revolution to the US public is that we're being denied Good Deals on cheap chinese cars and solar panels and there's nothing more unamerican than saying we can't have a good deal

No movement on this since Saturday night. We’re at $125/$300. Please help if you can? Share and/or donate? 🥺 💕💸

I hate to do this and don’t really have the energy to push it a lot, but Ash has had a slowish couple of months and we could really use some help making ends meet. Most urgent thing is getting food and litter for our clowder, but in all we could use about $300. CA and V are KellySMcGonigal 🥺

Yup, my pulse was too high to donate plasma so I have to try again tomorrow, possibly after I take a Klonopin to calm my jittery nerves. So we could really use more help on our MA request. Ash is donating plasma now, but as a return donor he’s not getting as much $ as I would. Please help? 🥺

What I hate about COVID downplayers is… you won okay. In the aftermath of humanity coming together to develop the most crucial vaccines of our lifetime & collectively sacrificing to save lives, we are now less safe, less vaccinated & less empathetic than ever. You won ok. Lay down your swords.

I like this lady right here! From day 1 I have always loved her posts, she writes good alt text, is a very accessible follow, and is supportive and super nice! Her and Ash could use a bit of help. Donations and boosts of her post are appreciated! 💕💸
