Remaining on this hellsite feels a bit like having a supporting role in an old school war drama.
“I’ll find you there!” I call out bravely across the widening distance between us, as your train pulls away towards Bluesky.
I smile through my tears. We will see each other again.
We already have a process for determining whether accusers are credible. It’s called a trial. And a jury already decided they believed E Jean Carroll. THIS is weaponization.

@artwithinpod@AndrewBartlett If you’d told me last century that I would be wholeheartedly agreeing with the Pope and utterly ideologically opposed to the US Health Secretary, I’d have checked your tea for LSD.

The new Jim Crow will be defeated like the old Jim Crow.
We were tired then, but not defeated.
We are tired now, but we will not be defeated.
Weeping may endure for a night, but the morning is coming.
I’ve never shown ID to eat in a restaurant (sure, when I was young and fresh, I showed my ID if I was drinking alcohol).
But nowadays? Nope.
Where does this dude eat?
Blanche: "There's a lot of things we can be doing, like voter ID. Every time you walk into a restaurant you have to show ID. How about you have to show your idea to vote? That's not anything that's crazy."
@C4nnibalC4nid@gragarciaap@leshaami Also, there is no reality in which a pregnant 13-year old is not a crime. The fact that she was pregnant at that age is evidence or rape or criminal neglect.
I wrote about this in my newsletter. The Weather Service didn't launch balloons recently and got surprised by tornadoes in Kansas. DOGE cuts at NWS cut out weather balloon launches which gather data for storm prediction. You are less safe because of that choice.
Demonstrating KU’s prowess in the field of astrophysics, Hayley Beltz, a KU postdoc researcher, has won a highly competitive NASA Hubble Prize Fellowship that will support her research into the magnetic fields of planets beyond our solar system. 🪐 https://t.co/uNdaNd6IrG
“You just wanna see the Anne Hathaway movie about a tradwife influencer being dropped into the 19th century because it gives you a chance to mock and sneer at tradwife influencers.”
Well… yeah. That’s exactly why I want to see it. I’m sorry, do you think I’m hiding that motivation?
Let me break it down real simple:
A woman who enthusiastically chooses to be a stay-at-home wife and mother is fine with me. None of my business, actually. My opinion on it doesn’t matter, nor would I offer it. That’s her choice. If she’s happy, who gives a shit?
A woman who performs as a stay-at-home wife and mother in order to build an online brand that pushes gender essentialist politics—and shames other women—deserves to be mocked for her hypocrisy and weirdo misogyny.
Yeah, I’m gonna have a lot of fun watching this movie. You’re absolutely right about that.
Congratulations to the 2026 University Research Awards recipients. Your determination and discoveries help make the world a better place. 🌎 Thank you for exemplifying the creativity, ingenuity, and might that power KU’s legacy as a leading research institution. Rock Chalk!
