El-Sayed is leading Stevens by almost 37,000 votes with 71% of the votes counted. That lead has been slowly growing over the last two hours. He is very likely to win. I have to work tomorrow. I am going to bed. #misen

Collins is voting for Blanche? That means he has enough votes to get confirmed. She only votes in a "moderate" way when her vote doesn't matter. Deep down, she's right wing. All her moderate stuff is just an act. Remember that she was THE deciding vote to confirm Kavanaugh. He then killed Roe 5-4.

One slop machine put me on a list of critics twice, because it decided Mo Ryan of Variety and Maureen Ryan of VF were "different individuals with separate careers." it got quite salty about it! "they are not the same person" ok fine, you got me, there are many copies www.instagram.com/p/C_UKMOrJPNT/

Relatedly, a reminder that "AI" will just make shit up about you

"What corrective surgery did John Scalzi have that he's written about"

John Scalzi had cataract surgery to correct his vision.

On his popular blog, Whatever, he written about dealing with cataracts and how the corrective procedure effectively altered his eyesight. Because the synthetic replacement lenses in his eyes do not possess the natural ability to refocus, he jokingly points out that his most "extroverted glasses" are actually no glasses at all—leaving him with sharp distance vision but requiring him to take them off entirely to check his phone or read up close.

Would you like to know more about how his personal medical reflections influence his science fiction, or perhaps his other writing about health and the human body?

I don't generally block people unless they are super annoying, but if you DM me some sort of marketing/spam/scam bullsh*t, you will earn an immediate unfollow + mute.

Rand Paul put Fauci in front of a Senate hearing. This is because Paul will never be half the physician, half the scientist, half the man Anthony Fauci is. Paul's an inadequate loser with Daddy issues. Just like Donald Trump.

We destroyed Irans military then had to go back to fighting the non existent military but had to stop because we were using too many expensive missiles attacking the not-military because we weren’t flying over the country with no military because their non military was still a threat to our planes.
