...I could have gone my whole life without knowing that there are people calling el-Sayed "the Jew's slave" because he's distinguishing between Jews as a group of people and Israel as a distinct state.
"She is tall, maybe two inches under six feet. Her eyes are a washed-out blue that often seems vacant, but they become swords of ice when she is thwarted. Her hair is blonde, as from much exposure to the sun. [...] Not vain, she keeps it shorter than is stylish." I need fanart of her.
Okay you guys, break's over. Time to get LASER FOCUSED on the Rhode Island primary. With only a month to go, the fate of the Democratic Party and the shape of the rest of the twenty-first century hangs in the balance. You need to be prepared to get REAL UPSET with one another online.
Metro Detroit public transit has been funded through a millage since 1995. However, township sized cities (up to 36 sqmi) were allowed to opt out. 10 years after the four county regional transit millage failed by 1% in 2016, Oakland Co went all in (2022) & now Wayne Co is all in.

Once again, I come back to the fact these guys have created a situation where one of the UK's leading, cis female athletes is scared to go to the loo alone, and the fact that they are celebrating this as a step forward for women's rights.

In other Michigan news, the state looks set to elect it's first transgender lawmaker. Joanna Whaley won her Democratic primary and will compete in November for a state house seat, beating a primary opponent who tried and failed to disqualify her for not running under her deadname
Current Affairs, please allow me to pitch you an article on decolonization via nightcore remix resonant chambers.
It is possible for American heritage to be bridged through French house, at weddings in particular. The varsity jacketed beats of "Pacific Coast Highway" would
Okay, once the race is called, if any of you fuckers start posting about the primary again, I will be forced to respond with measures from "Uff da" to "McMorrow woulda won!!" to nuclear retaliation- Whitmer/Spanberger shipping.
Ope! Now you all have to see this as punishment for posting about this primary!
Achilles@achilleslaststand.bsky.social · 6mo agoThinking about the chip video again
Saw the movie about the complicated man of twists and turns. I'm not so sure anything I say will be original or insightful, beyond that the movie's script gets worse the more heavy lifting it has to do in communicating things, and that there's one scene at the end I can only describe in two words:
The quality-price gap used in NIGHT WATCH is a very specific one that need not always apply to real-world cases. For example, if the 10-year boots cost $100, then there would be no gap.
@xibochay.bsky.social · yesterdayThis is a reference to the Sam Vimes Boots Theory, sort of made famous by Terry Pratchett in one of his Discworkd novels. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boots_t...
Sure. These answers may be disappointing, though.
I don't think I am especially a ball-knower when it comes to politics, but I guess this idea is less widely-understood than I thought?
Effian Psychicker@mseffy.myatproto.social · yesterdayThat's not really relevant to what I'm saying, though? The aim is to hit AIPAC without giving them a bloody shirt to wave. That's intrinsically tricky!
The "Israel is conspiring to make Europe Muslim" putrescence is yet anothet example of populism lumping all its excluded groups together into one mass of otherness constantly seeking to corrupt the people's precious bodily fluids.
In honour of #InternationalOwlDay. (It may be a bit niche [or maybe not, seeing the popularity of #TheOdyssey], but it's my favourite of any memes I've made.)
“There's an old saying in Clausewitz—I know it's in Jomini, probably in Clausewitz—that strategy is the use of battles for... for... battles get you the thing you want.”
James@gravitysra1nbow.bsky.social · 2d agoIt's like what that German guy always used to say. Sustained kinetic strikes in lieu of a cessation in hostilities are negotiations by other means
Questions that are only difficult if you've voluntarily trepanned yourself for transphobia reasons and insist that definitions are solely functionalist when it comes to biology.
Effian Psychicker@mseffy.myatproto.social · 2d agoHow many eyes does this animal have?
"Eyes are defined as organs with the function of seeing". So why are pit vipers classified as having two eyes and two loreal pits when both organs are specialized imaging sensory organs?
Chris Pook@drchrispook.bsky.social · 2d agoI'm guessing you didn't bother to read the section in the full document. Entirely predictable for a transactivist.
You're still posting about the merits or lack thereof of what AOC said?
The only MAHA I recognize is the MAHA-ZIONGA you'll be casting this turn! And it better shock the foe in place or you're going right into the next fusion!
Good lord I wish some of you could read on this text based social media website.
