Congrats to and all the users and team that make it unique ! 32m users is real !
Also if you feel strongly about Eric Adams, you should call your city councilmember to express that and ask for their position. You’d be surprised. Hochul’s stance is highly disappointing but it doesn’t come from nowhere. Press all your electeds. City elections are in 5 months. Ask candidates too.
Anyway, here's Sugar the cat contemplating the impermanence of life and the very nature of existence, as one does

Keep at it
Something is shifting. They are still breaking things and stealing things. And they will keep trying to break and to steal. But the propaganda magic around the oligarchical coup is fading. (1/2)
I don't believe in Hell, but if I did I would die happy knowing there was a special seating section for anyone currently railing against "the sin of empathy," and every one of those seats is made with hot rusty barbs
Here are some nice mushrooms

Pupper's polite and subtle implication that he is interested in going for a walk..🐕🐾
"super/collider draws our attention to one of the most surreal natural sights on Earth – the pink lakes of Western Australia, including the stunning Lake Hillier. A true wonder of nature!

quick update: the man makig dog noises outside my apt ended up being just a dog. to all Gorgeous women who DMed me asking if im ok—thank you
You have done the Mashed Potatoes, the Watusi, and the Jerk. This weekend, try doing THE MONKEY.
let me say that this is the classic “just asking questions” approach to delegitimizing the achievements of black people. and critically, you don’t even have to be a black person who talks about race. simply being black to these people means you are “obsessed with race.”
Just look at these paragraphs from the AP story. Hegseth called Brown unqualified solely because he's Black. Then they fired him... and replaced him with a white guy so indisputably unqualified that he requires a Presidential waiver. This is what "merit" means to them. apnews.com/article/trum...

Reading pope power rankings. Absolutely losing it that the word for eligible popes is "popeable."
Also, this is a *perfect example* of the kind of bureaucratic layer that makes actually doing things in government sometimes hard! Do you a VA nurse spending her time providing health care or writing Elon an email about “What I Did Last Week”?
I don’t know how many different ways to say that agency personnel don’t work for Elon. They don’t have to report to Elon. They report to their agency leadership, which reports to the President.
This AM I have re-posted stories from WaPo, the NYT and NPR. The NYT story has multiple bylines and is a thorough factual debunking of an official government communication. You can argue about headlines and stay mad about past errors or you can realize institutional journalists are doing the work.
Particularly of interest is Woolrich- available again - God bless. A man with a bibiography and biography that are equally fascinating and dark.
It’s true what they say… great things are happening on Blue Sky
Back from a week off. What'd I miss?
What exactly is a meme coin, and how does it work?
Replies to this are a great reminder of why I don’t use this app 🙃
I made a new search engine. Kind of. Introducing unduck.link, my DuckDuckGo replacement :)
lean’s zulip community chat is fantastic. first, i simply didn’t know about zulip before, and it surpassed my expectations. cold loads are slow tbh but it’s very pleasant to use overall. and then the lean one specifically is very welcoming and people are eager to answer beginner questions. love it
