I am rather pleased that I have lived my life in such a way that, "Piggy, no, you can't root in wet concrete! You will hurt yourself!" is a thing I can actually sincerely say in the course of a day. #thesexyneverstops

It's always funny to watch partisans expressing confusion when people they classify as belonging to a "wing" behave in a way that indicates their brains are more complex than a light switch.

I eat the rock geologists call halite every day. You can buy large containers of the mineral ground up fine, and sprinkle it on your food. Used properly, it enhances the taste of many foods. https://t.co/mA3jNvGbW1

I must point out that when you refer to trans youth as "children" when they're mostly teens, you are playing into the hands of those who want to classify medical care as "child abuse" by infantilizing young adults who, though inexperienced, don't still believe in Santa Claus.

"Stop hitting yourself!"
"Stop resisting!"
"Your fault for not surrendering!"Bullies all sing the same ugly song; the lyrics just change slightly with the power level. https://t.co/qXRg5LdQ1L

Anybody who's ever been in a grocery store during panic buying, and seen fully-stocked fake meat sections next to completely empty meat sections, could've seen this coming. https://t.co/KBvpI5fPrf

Literal thing which sounds like a metaphor: It's striking how strong the chlorine smell of city water is once one gets used to well water.

Oh, look, it's an ad that isn't being blocked by my adblocker, and I'm fine with that because it's sitting politely in the margin behaving itself rather than flashing, moving, wriggling, or popping up in my way like an unruly toddler trying to disrupt an adult conversation. pic.twitter.com/rBC5pAmdRX

One of the more disappointing sequences of events on Twitter:
-Sees tweet with a topic that looks interesting
-Clicks link
-Sees it's a slideshow

I'd be a lot more sympathetic to "gun control" fans if they focused most on the group responsible for the most gun violence – the police – rather than crafting laws which enable that same group to inflict MORE violence, especially on young minority men.

I wonder how much of their lifespan the average longevity fanatic wastes in performing all the spells, dances, rituals, and theatrics their shamans declare will lengthen their lives? I'll bet it's more days on average than they hope to gain by the mumbo-jumbo. https://t.co/RNTHKSir9n

Alas, CA is still very happy to criminalize people for having sex for the "wrong" reasons, and sending cops to rape women and ruin their lives in order to enforce that. https://t.co/YIVQsShrTG

NOTHING on Twitter is as consistently nauseating as the sight of grown, presumably educated people groveling before politicians like ancient peasants before priest-kings.

It's always a little sad when someone on here notices the complete inconsistency and incoherence of the current positions taken by "left" or "right"…but pretends it only applies to the one THEY don't identify with.

"Human traffickers". What other groups is he worried about? Satanists perhaps? Goblins? Orion slavers? Kanamits?

Another fascinating PhD topic of the latter half of this century will be analyzing how early 21st-century partisans complained about censorship and speech-suppression by "the other side" while vociferously denying that what THEIR side did was censorship and speech-suppression.

I purposefully and intentionally order a "small" when I'm forced to buy at Starbucks, because I refuse to participate in their faux-Italian marketing gimmick unless they pay me to do so. https://t.co/zxwUBKZ2k1

You can always tell a bootlicker, even when they try to hide: they'll blame everyone for the tyranny and/or gross incompetence of state institutions EXCEPT politicians and bureaucrats.
