It’s #STFUfriday!

When cops ask you questions, ask for a lawyer and then STFU:

- I am not discussing how I’m doing or where I’m going.

- Am I free to leave?

- I am not answering any questions.

- If they ask to search anything: "I do not consent to a search."

- I want to talk to a lawyer.

Cops or the FBI may come to your door asking about someone else. Maybe that's a lie, maybe not. Either way, say, "I want to talk to a lawyer first." DO NOT LIE THAT YOU DO NOT KNOW THEM! STFU! /1

It's only the end of March but already 2025 has logged more #measles cases than all but 2 other years since the US achieved measles elimination status in 2000.
#CDC reported there'd been 483 confirmed cases in 19 states as of 3/27. Likely out of date, with TX reporting Friday its count has hit 400. https://www.cdc.gov/measles/data-research/index.html

I'm upset with the trade deficit I have with my grocery store. I buy much more from them than they buy from me. So I'm putting a 5% tariff on everything I buy from them. That will teach them. I am a genius.

if you don't all behave, i will confiscate everyone's gender and then no one will have any genders to gend with

I don’t think it will all fit in there.

This was an all-timer. A perfect rebuttal of Effective Altruism and Roko’s basilisk

AI can't write a novel. AI couldn't even write INFINITE JEST.

If you're in #Beloit, go to the Culture Lounge and order a floral, tell 'em some white-haired weirdo from the Inbernet told you to.

Straya! #pizza #cockatoo

a friend invited my wife and me to visit them… and we were invited to an event i’ve wanted to do since childhood

had to turn both down because they’re in states where i can’t use the bathroom, and if i had to go to the hospital they’d forcibly detransition me by stopping my HRT

do you get it yet?

OK #fantasy fans of Masto, I only need six more backers to turn this to a nice round 100, can you do better than the other socials? Let’s find out!
