@TedUnderwood The arguments are just funny. It’s the existential crises that start to feel a bit close to the bone.

"The pigs weigh between 75 and 250lbs on average" this seems like an unhelpfully broad range, what kind of average is this "but can weigh in twice as large as that, according to the USDA." Oh, even better. Some are lighter than air, and can float over barriers. Some have their own event horizons, which they use to hunt prey. Others are composed of pure energy, coruscating shimmers of porcine light.

@alex Daily Mail seems a far more harmful import than TikTok at this point, but it’s aligned with the groups that’d otherwise be most likely to make an issue of that, so they don’t.

@glynmoody What was BeReal?! 🤣 Sounds like an in-universe product from a TV show or video game.

@KimPerales @LillyHerself They should let them keep the equivalent of minimum wage, just to rub salt in the wound.

Trudeau’s wide-stance pose with Korean politician splits critics https://www.theguardian.com/world/2023/may/19/justin-trudeau-korea-wide-stance-photo-manner-legs No it doesn’t. The people complaining about this would have accused him of insensitivity if he hadn’t done it, or else found something else to moan about.

If Trudeau personally cured cancer tomorrow, some people would blame him for the millions he was too late to save, and demand to know why he hadn’t fixed heart disease. It’s pretty weird, but the Canadian right often is.

The phrase gets overused these days, but this is a really game-changing announcement from Number 10.

If you're in politics at this point in history and don't know its unsafe to post a bullet list of 5-6 negative pledges, you're simply not fit for office.
