yeah, so...

I'm in Slate today with the tale of how a couple of invasive mosquito species have conquered the U.S., and what that means for our future (spoiler: it's not great!) Please read and share.

They’re the Most Annoying Creatures on the Planet. You Don’t Know What They’re Going to Unleash on America.

They can do a lot more than ruin your summer day.

People stay together for a hundred million reasons, but it only takes one reason to feel very, very small

The Ken Jennings thing was distilled proof of “I’m your biggest ally until you make me feel bad for the thing I like doing and then I stop listening.” This is so common. People will stand up for a marginalized community UP UNTIL it puts them in an uncomfortable position

I find it so funny these guys still talk about the government like fucking dale gribble. you ARE the government you stupid bitch!! You were a US REPRESENTATIVE! Fuck of!f

suspiciously green bananas is sadly one of the funniest things i’ve read in awhile

Mickey Mouse experienced a great hunger.

Saw this picture and trying to figure out the Diddy Kong situation is leading me down a rabbit hole that can only end with me rejecting the moon landing

It’s so cool that even “our” media has allowed this story to become wealthy Mormon asshole patting himself on the back for being attacked by the woke mob and not even apologizing to the trans woman who got international media coverage calling her evil for questioning

And you're such an ally that instead of apologizing, you got articles written about how much of an ally you are by Them and PinkNews. (Also fuck PinkNews and their AI bullshit.) www.them.us/news/ken-jen... www.thepinknews.com/2026/08/03/j...

here's a fun lil exercise for cis people: how many articles would a publication have to print calling for your extermination before you would expect people who care about you to stop giving them money? and how would you feel if their excuse for still supporting them is some fuckass crossword puzzle?

KIM KITSURAGI - “You need to get your shit together.” YOU - “But I don't wanna get my shit together!” KIM KITSURAGI - “Then the world will turn away from you, and leave you behind.”

I'm a deeply flawed individual, but I bring joy to the world.

god i love that the terrible village people movie that featured the village people as support characters to steve guttenberg and his straight friends has a baskin robbins ice cream tie in

biggest tell to me that big tech *wants* this shit is that they're not beating the drum to oppose this shit like they did back in the day with SOPA

It will be worse than this! Most websites will be forced to ask you to send your ID to a third party surveillance service, adding a credit card won't be enough for most. Bluesky asks for your *social security number* if you live in Texas now, due to this shit. Call in, and kill it.

Dear liberal, We notice how how you use queerness as a punchline and a gotcha against your ideological enemies We notice that you don't show up for us if there's any threat of arrest or violence We notice that you talk over us when we try to correct you on your queerphobic behaviour

i was supposed to get something via certified mail on the 31st and it's the 3rd and it still hasn't arrived, idk what to do

"oh no, don't do socialist things! you'll play right into their hands" - the people playing right the fuck into their hands

the news ticker on twitter sure does have a point to it

the lease on my shitty studio that abby and i have been staying in is up and we're having to pay month to month for one month until the new place we applied to comes up. i'm trying to make it through this month and get a deposit of like 700 together for this new place, anything helps.

my partner was fired last year for refusing to put up with transphobic harassment at work and hasn't been able to find work since. help us both out if you want. these are my venmo and PayPal because she isn't really online

One of the most cursed moments from FFX is when Tidus references the Macarena out of nowhere and nobody talks about it

Of all the accounts on this site to have beef with and it's the one that posts about discontinued food

You won't believe what this is in reply to

Nothing is ever capitalisms fault, it's yours for not buying the right things These are the guys who gentrified the shit out of SF to the point where normal working class people can't afford to live there anymore & still have the nerve to say this shit like they're not part of the problem

Blaming this on villainous far-away capitalists is what the kids call “cope.”
