I mean, what if she does choose to sleep with women because of the data? It doesn’t take away from her attraction to men. She’s choosing not to engage in that part of her desire. There are lots of reasons people choose not to sleep with men.
biscuit’s mom (@mrsthrift.bsky.social) reply parent
Hmmm I wonder what could make her feel the need to describe things in that way.
biscuit’s mom (@mrsthrift.bsky.social) reply parent
She’s data driven.

The frog eggs were viable and now I have tadpoles in my house. 🐸

Omgosh so rude! (About the chucks) do you go to shows together now? 🥺
biscuit’s mom (@mrsthrift.bsky.social)
We brought frog eggs in to grow tadpoles in our aquarium but I don’t think they’re viable 🥺
biscuit’s mom (@mrsthrift.bsky.social) reply parent
I told him I was stoked. When that happens, maybe we can go to shows together without him bitching so much.

Is it possible that they tricked us and there is one or even two more episodes? As a treat? A little surprise?
biscuit’s mom (@mrsthrift.bsky.social)
I can’t believe that was the last episode of last of us. Is it true we won’t get more until 2027?

Work requirements hurt poor people AND are a waste of money. Arkansas spent $26 million on administrative costs for work requirements — and saw no increase in employment. Georgia’s program cost $40 million in one year — 80% of that went to administrative and consulting costs.

Want to show your opposition to the current state of things? Wearing a respirator mask in all public spaces is a clear indication that you do not adhere to the status quo and that you care about your health and that of others. A truly radical (and 100% nonviolent) action. Ticks all my boxes. ✔️😷✊️

If rolling out this choreographed “How to talk to your kids about why empty shelves are good, actually” campaign isn’t enough to convince you that they know what’s coming and how bad it’s going to be, I’m not sure what it will take.

For no reason at all, here's the campfire story scene in MANHUNT where a character relates the tale of J. K. Rowling's grisly death in her fortified Scottish castle.

Pediatric dentists in places where we don’t put fluoride in the water can basically print money. I’m always amazed at how every kid in every chair has their teeth rotting out of their heads when I’m at the dentist with my kids. We live in a region that does not fluoridate the water, unfortunately.

Greasy stains, heavily soiled cotton, and anything that needs to be sanitized or disinfected all benefit from being washed in hot water. Many people do bedding and towels in hot water for disinfectant reasons.

I agree with you, but I know some libraries are staffing front desks with very entry level staff these days.

Front desk may not be staffed by a librarian, just fyi

I don't think @shteyngart.bsky.social gets enough credit for predicting the venal idiocy of this particular timeline. In Super Sad True Love Story (2010) Americans get mistakenly deported to gulags by a super-glitchy AI otter who calls everyone "pa'dner". He saw it coming, down to the DOGE dog.

11 sounds perfect. Do you want to set a reminder on your phone for 1045 so you’re ready to go at 11? Do you think you’ll eat lunch afterwards?

Let’s make a plan. What time do you think you’ll go?

A lot of people should be wearing masks, for sure! But I could never be convinced that these people, this whole group of kidnappers who refuse to identify themselves while they abduct someone in broad daylight, are masking for health reasons.

They’re wearing masks for a reason

Jeffrey Goldberg thinking he was being pranked and then realizing he was actually just in the war plans group chat is such a good microcosm of how it feels to be alive right now, everything seems fake until you realize it’s actually real and incredibly stupid

I’m old enough to remember when Secretary Hegseth tried to publicly mock Judge Reyes—suggesting that she didn’t know what she was doing when it comes to protecting our national security. It was … two days ago.

When I was in my early 20s, my friends and I were kicked off our parents insurance. our crappy jobs didn’t offer health insurance, so none of us had any health care at all. It was bleak to live in a community where none of us could access healthcare.

does anyone remember how pregnancy was a preexisting condition before the ACA? And insurance companies were allowed to charge 1.5x more for women’s insurance, as well as exclude coverage for Pap smears, birth control, and breastfeeding support?
biscuit’s mom (@mrsthrift.bsky.social) reply parent
Remember how insurance companies could overcharge you and they weren’t legally obligated to return the money to you? ACA fixed that.

Please do not apologize and continue your info dumping on this topic. I’m very interested in the comings and goings of the Sabatasso cheese gluten-free pizza. To the point of obsession. It’s my kids favorite food and I buy hundreds of dollars of it at a time but it’s discontinued at my store.

Good day to remind everyone there was no Famine in Ireland. Schools, as an instrument of imperialism, have characterised the genocide, transportation and emigration of Irish peoples as a natural disaster. There was food. Just not available to the Irish people. youtu.be/EZIB6MslCAo?...
