Elon Musk is a terrible president.

@clhubes I would answer A

@ok_lyndsey @sensorystories_ Wait, where can I find that?! Spreadsheet competitions totally sound like something I need to see

@sensorystories_ Have you seen the footage of the spreadsheet competitions? Next level geek cool. Rummage around that scene for neurodiversity theories.

I have a random hypothesis and would love to run a VERY unscientific poll out of sheer curiosity 😆... Excel (the computer program)... Autistic people LOVE it... ADHDers can't stand it. Let me know where you fall if you're one, the other, or both 😆

Word of the Day is one I keep posting at the end of the year, hoping its time will come. ‘Respair’, from the 16th century, is fresh hope, and a recovery from despair. Here’s to a few drops of respair in 2025.

@jtsveigdalen Done! ✅

@NathalieATT @HPotterUniverse The movies don’t stay fully true to the books

@HPotterUniverse If it's not going to be canon and by the book, then there's no sense in watching. It won't be a real Harry Potter show. I'll stick with the books and the movies, and they can FO.

According to reports, British actor Paapa Essiedu has been offered the role of Severus Snape in the Harry Potter TV series. The creators of the show, including J.K. Rowling, said that the TV series would be a faithful adaptation of the books. Snape is described in the books as being a “thin man with greasy, shoulder-length black hair, a large hooked nose, sallow skin, and cold, black eyes.” The drawing below was drawn by J.K. Rowling herself, which correlates with how she described Snape’s appearance in the books. They haven’t even started filming this TV series and they are already deviating from the books. Personally, I am disappointed. What are your thoughts?

@gabsmashh I’ve heard of smishing, but never SPIM

i didn't know that was its own thing?

@FeralHeather Starting meds for my anxiety was one of the most life-changing decisions I’ve ever made, and I’m so grateful for the doctor who suggested them. Meds like these are not a crutch; they are helping your brain like glasses help people who need them to see clearly

I’m on new anti-depressants for suicidal ideation after YEARS of trying to cope without them, because a lot of horrible traumatic stuff happened recently. Everyone I tell about this has said something to the effect of “anti-depressants are a crutch & bad for you, quit them.”

@johnpavlovitz @JeriLRyan Kind of like when the Brits votes for Brexit without really knowing what it would mean

Sometime in early Spring, a lot of MAGAs will frantically Google search: “How do tariffs work?” and they’ll realize that they “work”—by making Americans work harder to make the same money. Then they’ll realize they didn’t own the Libs with their vote; this was a self-own.

@gabsmashh Same. I don’t even know what to say or how to react

i don't have anything vindictive or indignant to say this morning, i'm just sad.

Word of the day is ‘recrudescence’ (17th century): the return of something terrible after a time of reprieve.

Just imagine the Oval Office in three months: It’s either Donald Trump in there, stewing over his enemies list—or me, working for you, checking off my to-do list.

@jtsveigdalen Had mine last month! 👍

Oh look, I wasn’t just being lazy when I was still tired after 10 hours of sleep. All my iron markers are out of whack! Thank you @acweyand for teaching me about ferritin so that I knew what to ask about at my doctor’s appt, besides just saying “I’m tired”

Listen up folks. When your partner is venting about a problem, it’s so so important to actually STOP AND ASK THEM if they want advice, comfort, a back rub, another kitty, a trip to the bookstore, or a solemn blood oath of vengeance

While their campaign is based on fear, our campaign is based on joy. And it all starts with @KamalaHarris.
