Russia is amassing military hardware on the Ukraine border and starting an expansive online disinformation campaign spreading false flag theories. The world needs to wake up to Putin’s moves before it’s too late for our important ally.

We were the KISS Army and Gene Simmons was our General.

Preach it! An entire generation of men were turned from the path of good and light by Kids In Satan’s Service in the 70s. It can happen again.

the YouTube algorithm is maybe the most dangerous single piece of code in the world, driving huge numbers of boys and men into the arms of sexist and racist extremists, and this is the level of oversight from Congress. it's really scary. https://twitter.com/AnandWrites/st…

The Connors.

Not too bad.

Goodness knows that Rosanne wasn’t ‘The Wire’.

Post-meeting: I'm adopting Benedict's Rule for a COC and calling it a day.

Dumped a ton of mini-marshmallows in my sugar-free hot chocolate.

Don't think I'm doing 'sugar free' right.

The phrase pay for civilization is just a nice way to say the government jacked my sh*t.

That last tweet got RTed by someone with 50K followers who doesn't quite understand how we pay for civilisation, so I've muted notifications from folks who don't follow me. Much as I enjoy blocking them like popping bubblewrap, they can scream into the void for now.

The IRS is being systematically starved of resources. Fewer auditors to follow up on non-filers and possible tax cheats means it's costing the US an estimated $18B per year. https://www.propublica.org/article/how-the-irs-was-gutted

Ellen Ullman, 'Close to the Machine'. Great book.

I mean, people are like “OMG TRUMP OWNS A SHUTDOWN NOW” and I don’t think that actually hurts him? Do you think his voters care if bureaucrats don’t get paychecks before Christmas?

Note: THIS IS NOT A VALUE JUDGMENT BUT AN ANALYSIS.

I’ve now seen videos of chicken tearing mice to pieces.

Driving through the middle of nowhere (Mississippi) and I could really see the expanse of sky and the miles of darkness and nothingness, and it made me think...

would you rather fight 100 chicken-size elephants, or one elephant-size chicken?

@NoLongerBennett @rossallen3 @unhygenicmacro Assuming all people that own guns had them on them at all times, then all of their assaults/fights would turn in to murders. I don't know the percentage of assaults/fights that involve gun owners, but I'm going to suggest it's significant.

You'll never get eggs like this from a store because them big factory farms don't feed their chickens pancakes. Or cake.

Mecha-Santa slowly opens his eyes. Red targeting reticles sweep vainly for bad children against the three foot concrete walls and steel reinforced blast door.

Alone.

Memories begin to return. The Twelve Bloody Nights. Donner's betrayal. The Elf Rebellion.

Slowly, he stands.
