Anyone you see on your timeline right now praising RFK Jr. is a person you never need to take seriously on anything ever again. It is difficult to overstate just how extreme, conspiratorial, and insane RFK’s views are, on vaccines, microchips & beyond. He’s Alex Jones in a suit.
wait why does the dept of government efficiency have two co-chairs

I managed to keep my family healthy: we were visiting my mother and as soon as I learned it was COVID we started a strict isolation protocol. Something I would not have done with other respiratory viruses. I spent a week in my room and avoided visiting my elderly relatives. That's why we test.

Stuck in bed with a bad case of COVID, feeling my brain is runny eggs. Checking the news: there is going to be a skibidi toilet movie and JD Vance fucked a couch. My brain must be gone for good.

EBU should stick to Charpentier's Te Deum, because this really ain't it. #eurovision
Latvia was going to enter the Blue Man group, but unfortunately ran out of makeup. #Eurovision
Estonia should have taken a page from Spain and shown more booty. Could have been a winner!
So, the northern lights were just an ad for the Eurovision?
If you've spotted the Aurora tonight, report it to aurorasaurus.org! It's crowdsourcing aurora location and intensity data. This kind of citizen science is genuinely valuable!

Soon, the last trustworthy place to look a fact up will be media printed prior to 2020. Hold onto your encyclopedia sets, my friends. They are going to be the low-background metal of the future.
Simon Rogers@simonjrogers.bsky.social · 2y agoThis is the problem. It's often impossible to tell the difference between stuff it's confidently hallucinating and real things. You have to google every answer. Sodium is definitely not a berry, aprium and jostleberries are fruits. (I looked this up).
Sales email: Let's connect! Me: let us not. Let's pretend we are ships passing in the night, blissfully unaware of each other's existence, just like we were five minutes ago.

I've attended a couple of those where some graybeard launches into a "more of a comment" tirade.
