Been in a very philosophical headspace today and realizing the only things I know for sure are:

I hope you're having a good day; and

I hope your day brings wellness and joy to others

WTF timeline are we on. Someone called me the MAGA whisperer and I’ll gladly take the title. Left, right, D or R we all want the same things. We’re being divided on purpose by the Epstein Elite Oligarch class because as long as we’re at each other’s throats, they get fat and rich off of our misery. The second we figure out we agree on more than we disagree, they’re done. Love your neighbor. Be yourself. Radical honesty. No fucks given, no fucks taken. Everything else is just noise. (But still fuck Jake “Brick Tamland” Tapper on any time line)

Zoomers would pack lunches and doordash less too, if saving enough money to have a meaningful life was on a 2-5 year timeline, rather than a 15-30 year timeline. This is not an extravagance problem. This is an incentives problem.

If you're a naturally anxious person, I recommend pursuing a high stress career path where at least you'll be compensated for anxiety you're going to have anyways.

•The U.S. Senate may hold a floor vote TODAY which would overturn a 20-year moratorium on sulfide-ore copper mining on 225,000 acres of Superior National Forest land in the watershed of the Boundary Waters Canoe Area (BWCA) Wilderness in northern Minnesota. The Boundary Waters is the most visited Wilderness in the United States. 

🛶 Enjoying the Minnesotan/Canadian wilderness by canoe or other lesser watercraft is one of our nations greatest available pastimes, and one I have personally enjoyed my entire life. We must protect these public lands from the rapacious capitalists threatening to turn them into a poisoned wasteland.

•This vote in Congress would open the door to copper mining at the headwaters of this entire ecosystem. This kind of mining produces toxic pollution, including acid runoff and heavy metals, that can contaminate nearby waters.

•The Boundary Waters supports a major outdoor economy that sustains thousands of jobs and generates over a billion dollars a year - built on clean water and intact public lands. But this vote would clear the way for toxic mining that puts all of that at risk. It would also set a dangerous precedent, making it easier to roll back protections for public lands across the country, including wilderness areas, national monuments, and national parks. 

•This is a defining moment. If you care about clean water, public lands, and protecting places we can’t replace, now is the time to speak up.
•Protect the Boundary Waters, and vote NO on House Joint Resolution 140. Let’s save this treasured place for all of us—forever. https://t.co/JhNAR6Za2O

The ruler is beefing with the pope, his legions have fought to a stalemate with Persia, now typhus is breaking out in a major city, oh yeah it’s late antiquity out there

@eleogartixa My least favorite part of the whole show. Took me out of that scene completely cuz the whole time I was expecting to see a retaliatory hate crime the first time watching it. People love that scene but I can never enjoy it because of my first impression

USFS turned over to a logging CEO, HQ moved to anti-Fed Govt Salt Lake City, all 10 regional offices closed, all research labs shuttered, all the science lost, public lands handed over to corporations for logging, mining, fracking. Our country is being raped, looted, stolen.

Bo Burnham's Inside is not only the best piece of art about COVID, it's probably the defining piece of art for the 2020s (not the best piece of art, but the one that is most quintessentially of this time)

OMG, I FINALLY realized why this site is all vague posting now
1. It artificially increases engagement by forcing people to click on posts to find context
2. Inevitably forces people to use Grok to figure out what they're saying

That plus all the bots here too, I think I'm out

@Memecoin_Quant @CTachio83984 This is actually the plot of the Robots series by Isaac Asimov

Something that breaks my heart as a Millennial is how fucking optimistic and fun our teenage years and 20s were. Like we envisioned a TOTALLY different world from the one that we've got and insanely divorced from what Gen-Z are experiencing. It's hard to put in words how fantastic we thought life was gonna be and how it seemed like we were making tangible social progress. We've had all of that ripped away from us.

going to enjoy being one of the last educated people in the post-apocalypse. they're going to bring me scraps of books as I sit by the trash fire, whispering to each other 'garbage sage can see things in the markings' and I will read to them from the Very Hungry Caterpillar

Local investigators with a judicial warrant were blocked from investigating the scene by ICE agents.

This is illegal.
