MJF condemning Israel’s genocide of the Palestinian people as one of the most openly proud Jewish men in wrestling is another reason he’s the absolute fucking GOAT. He has such immense influence in this space and he used it to show humanity and empathy.
Still hope he loses Sunday but that’s because he’s also a brat.
I just googled this and… yes, it’s absolutely real.
And there are so many articles and videos and discussions. Like, the scientific community is buzzing about this.
So much research will have to be redone because the data was absolutely compromised, off by orders of magnitude, by using standard lab gloves.
The world is probably not horrifically contaminated by microplastics. Sterile laboratories, however, are contaminated by latex and nitrile gloves.
Thank God someone bothered to check.
>I just googled this and… yes, it’s absolutely real.
Sources beyond dude just trust me, for the skeptics.
Scientists may have been unknowingly inflating microplastics pollution estimates, and the surprising source could be their own lab gloves. A

Nitrile and latex gloves that scientists wear while they are measuring microplastics may lead to a potential overestimation of the tiny poll
Nitrile and latex gloves may cause overestimation of microplastics - Phys.org (it’s a pdf)
Researchers discovered a standard piece of lab equipment has added thousands of microplastic ‘false positives’ per each square-millimeter un
Ordinary Lab Gloves May Have Skewed Microplastic Data: That doesn’t mean microplastics aren’t a problem, though
That should be enough

"But what if people will pretend to need this accessibility option so they can be lazy! People who don't need it will use it!!" I don't actually care
I dont care if 9/10 of the people who use the wheelchair ramp arent actually in wheelchairs. As long as the 1 person who needs it has access to it.
I dont care if 9/10 people who use the automatic push button on the library door can actually push the door open themselves. As long as the 1 person who the door is too heavy for gets to use it.
I dont care if 9/10 people who buy the can tab opener, or the little guitar clamp that holds the chords for you, or the hand grip that helps you hold chop sticks, don't need any of it and just get it to "be lazy". As long as the one disabled person who needs it gets access to it.
I do not care. Oh my GOD I do not care. As long as there's a disabled person on this planet who the accessibility device will benefit, the accessibility device is necessary.
Also, if you're so worried about people being "lazy" by using accessibility devices, MORE worried than you are about disabled (visibly or not) people not having access to them, you have unchecked ableism you need to work through.

Trying to figure out if I lead with asking this guy if he's settled on a personality yet, or asking about how his divorce/custody situation is going.
I haven't been on here much because I'm in urban Minnesota. I know everyone's been told that the "temperature has been turned down", but that's just not true. They're still here, doing what they've been doing.
This is the part where they try to normalize what's going on, make it just part of the background. It's time to get even louder.
Bilbo: *before the quest* I’m just gonna chill here and be respectable
Bilbo: *after the quest* I’m not leaving town until I can gather everyone in the Shire for a huge fuckin party just so I can tell them that they’re losers and disappear right in front of their fuckin faces.
we don’t have to fight anymore
House
I had been up all night when Jeeves made his entry to my bedroom, tray of this morning's breakfast and paper in hand. I'd meant to sleep, of course, but the new technology had me in its tentacular grasp.
"Ah, Jeeves," I said, eyes fixed to the screen
"Good morning, sir. I see you've resolved to take the initiative today."
I stopped typing and stared dumbly at the man. "The..."
"You appear to be up rather earlier than is your habit, sir."
"Oh! Ah. Well, Jeeves, I fear I've been too busy acquainting myself with the future of technology to have slept. This Chatting Gupt, Jeeves! It's going to revolutionize positively everything."
"Are you referring to ChatGPT, sir?"
"Yes Jeeves, that's the one. You're familiar? I daresay its use would go a long way to explaining your preternatural efficiency."
Jeeves' eyebrow twitched. It didn't raise to one of its various heights indicating incredulity, concern, pity, understanding, joviality, or even that eighth-of-an-inch altitude whose meaning I'd yet to puzzle out. And did I see his eyes harden a step?
"Jeeves?"
"No, sir. I do not, and have not, employed that technology in my work."
"Well perhaps that's all for the best, one can scarcely imagine what terrible feats you might accomplish were you to be super-charged with this dynamo."
"Scarcely indeed, sir."
I tabbed over to the house Discord. "Here now, Jeeves," I said, "I've mind to invite Aunt Agatha to dinner to help smooth over that NFT peccadillo." I typed "AA dinner 2morrow" in the Reminders channel, so Jeeves would know to remind me.
"The BingoCoin rug-pull, sir?"
I grimaced. "No, BingoCoin was crypto. I'm speaking of the Indifferent Monkey Boating Society kerfuffle."
"Ah yes, the IMBS venture."
"Indeed. I've frankly been afraid to show my face to the woman for fear of a chastening so severe I'll be powerless to respond. But with this beauty," I pointed to the screen, "I'll never fear a tied tongue again. Do you know it's an app as well? It shall be as my ever-present yet surreptitious advisor."
"To be sure, sir, a unique and innovative approach to human interaction."
I detected a slight archness in this response.
"Tut-tut if you will, Jeeves, but we're on the precipice of a technological revolution that will put the steam era to shame." I closed my laptop, replacing it with the breakfast tray. I picked up my iPhone and navigated to the app store. "With ChatGPT by my side, and a bit of toast and coffee down the old hatch, I've no doubt that I can sleepwalk through my morning obligations with aplomb."
While ChatGPT installed itself, I switched over to the Discord app. I added "afternoon nap" beneath my earlier entry in the Reminders channel.
HAPPY 30th BIRTHDAY THRESHOLD DAY LIZARDS!

Here's something from Margaret Killjoy. Not cropped to annoy those of you that loved cropped screengrabs. Also not cropped because I have better things to do and found all of this on Facebook, where someone other industrious soul copied it from Bluesky. If you haven't listened to Margaret Killjoy's podcast, Cool People Who Did Cool Stuff, I recommend it.
As a Minnesotan, it was heartening to see stuff like this get reported on. We've been quietly getting down to business for a while now.
My number 1 piece of advice - get organized early. You don't have to have everything ready to go, but having Signal installed, whistles on lanyards, knowledge of where vulnerable populations are concentrated, etc., puts you far ahead of the game.

This is the tattoo I got last month. It has been healed up for a couple weeks, but it's been too cold for short sleeves so I didn't get a picture until now.
For the people who are concerned that a tattoo of the Loch Ness bear monster will ruin my life, you can stop worrying. I'm too old and stupid to give even the tiniest of fucks about people judging my tattoos. The world is burning. I'm going to dance however I want in the flames.
I think my favorite thing about General Martok is that — aside from that one time he had his mojo stolen by the Jem'Hadar and Worf had to do a little mutiny to give him his courage back — you spend the whole show seeing one side of him that is this tough as nails fearless warrior, what you think is a typical example of masculinity.
Then his wife shows up and you find out that he is very submissive to her, and he loves it. He loves to be dominated by his wife!
I love it because he absolutely does not tolerate that from anyone else. Its a very good example of how "sub/dom", "top/bottom", are only about sex and romantic relationships. Which is something people — especially queer people — always forget. Way too many of yall act like these are personality types that apply to every aspect of life.
