'You'll choke too' - an aerial embroidery landscape inspired by all the wildfires happening right now... I'm upset every time I smell smoke outside and somehow we have people starting them maliciously too! But we all breathe the same air so they'll choke too (1/2 - see thread for close-ups)

I know NOTHING of the economy in this or any part of IA. But $300k to own this diamond-in-the-rough? Aaand Bloom County history? Man am I glad I’m poor. Bc that sounds like an incredible bargain for a surviving remote worker or self-employed person. Wise ass B+B? Come ON!

The women now in their 40s are the first generation born into a reality where they were allowed to have their own credit cards and bank accounts without a husband or father cosigning.

So this is basically one of the entry points to becoming a reactionary

Big gratitude to 1st responders + LEO for quick action + quick arrest. (FTG. For real. FTG.)

It's heartbreaking to think that much of the damage from the fires in Spokane could've been caused by an individual doing this on purpose. I appreciate the hard work of law enforcement to make this arrest.

I remember someone recently telling me they thought Uber had cleaned up its act since Travis left years ago. But then...

“The litigation has revealed a clear pattern: Uber’s lawyers scour women’s private communications, medical records, therapy notes …They grill the women about those issues, their sex lives and their behavior on the night of the incident.” www.nytimes.com/2026/08/04/b...

Polymarket has millions of dollars in wildfire-related bets & more than $1M in beds were placed on the 2025 Los Angeles wildfires! DESPICABLE! THE PREDICTION MARKET PROMOTES THE OBSTRUCTION FIREFIGHTERS OR FOLKS TO GO OUT AND COMMIT ARSON! It's absolutely nuts!

There is no way that betting on wildfires should be legal. www.oregonlive.com/wildfires/20...

This Thursday, SpaceX insiders will be released from their first post-IPO stock lockup and can cash out early. As I've been saying, this has all the hallmarks of a Ponzi scheme.

A good NDE will absolutely ring yr bell. But multiverse/G_d only sends you back to finish essential werk. Whatever inspired that horrible self-abuse (I have theories but they rly don’t matter), it’s not G_d/multiverse. Comfort + strength to you, Perez, on this next, NEW chapter. (Don’t get used, k?)

If you show up in my post commenting 💩 that can be read as a call to violence? Bish, you aren’t just getting blocked you are getting HARD reported. (Fk outta my peaceful space with that jackassery.)

Eat shit, depression. I have the power of music and anime on my side

Trade schools are awesome. Every institution of higher learning isn’t and should not be a trade school. (Multiverse protecc Sociology and all adjacent fields!)

President Trump is banning students majoring in degrees that don’t make enough money from taking out college loans. Degrees for social work, art, religious studies, teaching aides, and music will be hit the hardest. trib.al/aaAEu6v

GOOD NEWS! A new cancer treatment has demonstrated unprecedented results in a large trial for cancer patients whose disease has become resistant to chemotherapy AND immunotherapy. Tumors shrank in OVER a third of participants, with 15 patients experiencing COMPLETE eradication of their tumors.

most of your suffering is just memory and prediction taking turns. almost none of it is happening now.

Dear drivers (esp female-presenting ones): Drop the ~$50 on a jump box and keep it charged up in yr car. It is a lifesaver (possibly quite literally).

Not sure which hurts worse this morning: the fact that 600+ families just lost their home, or the knowledge that this will only keep happening in a warming world.

The front page of this morning’s Spokesman-Review, Aug. 2, 2026, the day after one of the worst wildfires in Washington state history. More than 600 structures, mostly homes, have been lost in the #OldTrailsFire. Read local news.

Teaching the "Ciphers - from simple to secure" workshop at DEFCON DC33 was so much fun! The youth dug in and worked a real world caliber cipher 🤩 !!! I don't know how I can top it next year ... but I intend to try 💪🏼

It's common knowledge that one of the most dangerous times for a woman is after she leaves an abusive man. It's terrifying to then, with shared custody, let that man have access to your child. Knowing his anger and violence issues, you will do almost anything to try to keep him calm and happy.

Shocking, I know.

The diarrhea lettuce company, Taylor Farms, uses slave labor contracted from the Arizona Dept. of Corrections. The backbreaking labor is often performed by imprisoned Mexican nationals who would be otherwise ineligble to work in the US. They are paid $1.50 an hour.
