Health insurance is not health care.

I just couldn't help myself.

@Nonilex Thank you for this. Wow. Also: yikes.

J.D. Vance may be the first U.S. vice presidential candidate to admit in writing that he had sex with a rubber glove sandwiched between two sofa cushions.

We live in the stupidest timeline.

@rooster What about "Trans Continental Railroad"?

I think Biden should do what Lincoln and FDR did when they needed to: ignore the Supreme Court.

The NYPD patrol cars have special Pride Month livery that includes "All Colors Are Beautiful" this year, and I'd like to give the biggest high-five to whoever snuck "ACAB" into that design without the cops noticing.

@thomasfuchs OTOH, when a company requires my info simply to download the driver for an item that I purchased, which should have been included with the item anyway, I feel perfectly fine about using "root@somewhere.net."

(At least I'm not entering my last name as "'); DROP TABLE Data;--".)

The two-year-old only got half a nap today.

I now understand why vodka was invented.

@inthehands Well, now I know how to get my podcast going with no co-hosts or interviewees.

@inthehands

Them: "But it's a slippery slope to banning *ALL* motor vehicles in certain areas!"

Me: "Good."

The number of seemingly intelligent people I know bitching on social media about how "Mercury in Retrograde" is making their lives difficult makes me want to scream.

The day started as I woke sweating and cold with a massive sinus headache. I went downstairs to cook breakfast and caught my right index finger on the edge of the stove, painfully and bloodily pulling the nail from the bed -- which happened to my left thumbnail a week and a half ago.

Happy Monday.

I love seeing friends of mine succeed in their efforts, even if they're only "internet friends" and not "IRL friends." It makes me happy. 🙂

I was feeling silly so I did a thing.

You're welcome and/or I'm sorry, internet.

If you're wondering what BlueSky is like, it's like Mastodon but centralized and with a much smaller user base. It also has far fewer features, terrible moderation, and apparently the entire world's population of artists who sell furry porn.

@keyboardworrier @flexghost Well, I think this is their flag... they don't really need any others.

Attention, news media: "Elon Musk Says" is not news. You did this with Trump and look where it got us. Just because a rich white man opens his mouth, it doesn't mean he is worth listening to.

Americans: "We will do anything for our veterans!"

Veterans: "How about not shooting off fireworks because it sounds like warfare and we have PTSD?"

Americans: "Haha, no."
