I’m only going to say this once. Americans who eat meat get more than enough protein from their normal diet. You do not need to add more on purpose. Or to be healthier or to lose weight. It’s a marketing scam. If you’re worried about protein intake, worry about the developing world, not yourself.

One of my little pleasures these days is waking up and checking BlueSky before the news and attempting to decipher what international fuck-up Trump has done overnight based only on the context of outraged posts here.

Wife: “I want something simple and functional.” Husband: “I want a castle!” Wife: “Fine. We’ll compromise.” What really bothers me is this not only fails as a house, it fails as a defensive retreat. How do u expect to survive the cannibal apocalypse w all those windows, Sheila?”

The claim “RFK Jr. does not fuck chickens” is not an evidence-based claim because studies have not ruled out the possibility that RFK Jr. fucks chickens.

My dad in Vietnam. He worked on Chinook, Huey & Cobras in Long My Valley, which often took bombs from the NVC. He volunteered bc they desperate for aircraft mechanics at the time. I wasn’t born yet, but he always said despite the war it was a beautiful country. Happy birthday, Dad. ❤️

This is the reason I cannot let go of my truck, Beverly Killbilly. It’s all manual. Still has a tape deck lol. Could probably update that. But I’m going to wait for them to fix AI predictive text autocorrect first, then I’ll think about buying one of their “sentient” murder cars w break override.

Why are all new cars so hideously unintuitive? Forget electric vehicles. Electric schmelectric. My next car money will go to the manufacturer that brings back physical knobs, car door handles, and a gear shift. Make cars… cars again. I don’t want to drive a tablet.

Spent 2 hours attempting to verify my identity on MercadoPago (the Mexican equivalent of PayPal) to buy a $30 dollar product. I am still no closer to being finished as I’m awaiting an email (up to 14 hrs) b4 I can proceed. Bought via MP dozens of times. This is all new AI. The internet is broken.

I was raised S Baptist then tongue-talking evangelical. I stopped believing at age 9, but I saw the change in the community really start to rev up when Bush 2 took office. 9/11, Limbaugh, Prosperity Gospel, Joel Osteen, Fox, etc. They engineered it. It took decades. They had a plan & it succeeded.

Part 1 of 2. This isn’t news. But the way @tonyrush.bsky.social conceptualizes it makes in accessible…and actionable.

I always wonder what the men expect (it’s almost always men). “Okay, sir. I will suffocate my baby. I will sacrifice it to the gods of death so you can won’t have to be slightly annoyed on this 1:45 minute flight to Scranton. The crying baby is dead. Are we good now? Enjoy your pretzels.”

I cannot overstate how much I hate when people are dicks about babies crying in public (especially airplanes). Do you think the parent is having a good time right now?? Do you think they are not aware of the situation??? Are you going to negotiate with a literal infant????
