I knew the US takeover of TikTok would protect us from the misinformation epidemic, and keep hoaxes like Multiple Horse Theory from being spread around.

TikTok has incredible moderation team. Our InfoWars video about Multiple Horse Theory — the idea that there are many horses in the world and not just one — has been fully deemed misinformation and lost the formal appeals process. Confirmed by Larry Ellison: There is only one horse on Earth.

This is a book giveaway from @kithrup.bsky.social of two great books by one of my favorite authors; if you use amazon kindle ebooks, these are TOTALLY FREE to you; there's a good blurb on each book in the thread to see if it's the type of book you like.

We need to make "Balancing stuff on Mitch McConnell" as much of a thing as "Balancing stuff on my cat" Then for sure someone will leak pics of stuff they piled up on the real Mitch and we can get an update

CDC has become garbage Seriously, at this point believing there's a link between vaccines and autism is about on par with believing the moon landing was faked. I want to scream or cry or have RFK Jr crawl back into his swamp forever or perhaps all of the above www.cdc.gov/vaccine-safe...

A day or two around people who have English as their 2nd or 3rd language and all of a sudden I am not using contractions anymore. Just like my wife can tell when I'm on the phone with a customer vs anyone else, I have my Customer Voice on

People are making fun of AOC for having a slight southern accent while speaking in Memphis but they clearly don’t know the pain of habitually and unconsciously imitating the speaking style of the people around you

By far the largest trophy I earned in school was for 3rd place in a state competition for - Computer Literacy. I had zero time to prepare; a school admin asked if I would take this test, it's right now, and I said sure My parents were very surprised a month later when I came home with this 3' trophy

"Verify your age" In 7th grade, I took both a typing class on a typewriter, with some very specific typewriter centric things like correction tape, and also a "computer literacy" class

Everything you need to know about Jesse Watters: His latest on how good it is that soldiers getting testosterone will be more aggressive rapists than ever isn't even worth its own section on his Wikipedia page; it's just been added as a paragraph to one of the 12 existing Controversy sections

Unsatisfied with the money he makes on his insider trading, the President of The United States is now going to monetize access to his insider trading. www.nbcnews.com/business/med...

Truth Social to sell Wall Street firms the ‘fastest’ access to Trump’s posts

On the other hand, in my early help desk days the incoming calls were handled by completely non-technical people, who verified accounts and wrote up a ticket for the customer. So one day a ticket titled "Having problem with eunuchs" showed up in the queue.

This morning when my alarm went off I started whacking my alarm clock to silence it. I haven't used my alarm clock in a decade, my alarm is set on my phone.

This has the vibes of an 80s high school movie where the stoner has just slammed his report on the teacher's desk saying "Just go ahead and give me the A right now, read it and weep losers" I'm not a lawyer, but this argument seems REALLY bad.

U.S. Attorney Andrew Boutros argues that he believed the press conference he attended in DC with Acting AG Todd Blanche and FBI Director Kash Patel complied with the seal order because it was "for the purpose of facilitating 'the enforcement of criminal law.'"

The Falcons trending after Egypt blew their lead makes me feel like maybe I, as a Houston Oilers fan, finally get to move past the Bills comeback

The fact that Messi missing so many penalty kicks doesn't result in a Hack-A-Messi strategy is one of the reasons soccer is such a great sport

Okay so I see what's trending and I wonder, "Why is Adam Sandler trending?" "Because he officiated Taylor Swift's wedding" was not in my top 10 guesses, no.

No disrespect to this fine cookie review, but these were the worst Oreos I've ever had in my life. The "fake maple syrup" odor and taste were violently overpowering for me, I couldn't even force myself to finish one - and I really never turn down a cookie. My kid, on the other hand, loves them.

John Scalzi@scalzi.com · last mo.

COOKIE REVIEW: Oreo BTS cookie with "brown sugar pancake" filling: Not bad! Extremely sweet. The purple cookies don't particularly taste purple; I think they are probably the "Golden Oreo" formula with dye. Will probably plough through the package but will survive not getting any more after this.

We should be working to have as many kids as possible have the opportunity to participate in youth sports. Trans kids are kids. They deserve the same opportunities.

Just got back from Supergirl and what in the actual fuck was this trailer Even if this was a trailer for a movie that was a Tom Cruise biopic it would have been REALLY WEIRD but as just a trailer for "Tom Cruise's next movie" it was straight up fucked

Andy “voice of Brak” Merrill.🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️@amerrill2.bsky.social · last mo.

Did anybody else see that stupid Tom Cruise trailer that shows clips from every Tom Cruise movie before a clip of the new Tom Cruise movie? I felt that my time was wasted today and I was forced to watch a stupid Tom Cruse career reel starring Tom Cruise.

She has a neck the size of an adult human, legs that are just as long and an unforgettable coat. And she’s missing.

Did not expect to learn some grammar rules for when to use an en dash while trying to learn about SCOTUS decisions, but here we are And realizing why there's an en dash in "Rooker–Feldman doctrine" is way better than trying to learn about the Rooker–Feldman doctrine

Why does getting my prescription covered by insurance involve an actual fax machine?

Every time I deal with health insurance I'm even more motivated to burn the entire health insurance industry to the ground But for now I will waste my team yelling at my pharmacy to yell at my doctor's office to yell at my insurance to get me my prescription I've been taking for years

This summer the kids have finally had enough free time to get some board games in pretty regularly. This weekend, it was a few games of Chemical Overload - still feel like I'm wrapping my head around strategy on this one, it's different enough from other deckbuilders
