I did also work a 9hr no-breaker at work today. Send me ice cream.

And also just to be clear the problem I am complaining about in that toot is science illiteracy and scaremongering.

Also capitalism but every time my heart beats it complains about capitalism so it pretty much goes without saying.

Also bloody hell I was asleep and woke up to fifty-odd notifs about that toot. I noticed my phone buzzing a couple of times but damn. The take was hotter than I anticipated.

Also I lost my debit card today so I cancelled that one and ordered a new one

Now I get to find out what autopays are connected to it lol

I’m sick to death of people being precious about produce. Functionally there is no difference between a grape bred to have little or no seed and a grape that has been modified in a lab for the same thing. Y’all are just scared of science.

You wanna talk about charging for “licenses” for their crops, ok. Talk about agribusiness killing the planet, ok. Talk about corporations copyrighting genetic code, ok. These are all valid concerns.

But the science is sound.

I will rise from the swamp where they dumped my private plane
I'll be clutching the life preserver in my teeth
And I will find the highway
And I will flag down a truck
Worry lines on my forehead, blank stare underneath

And when I come back to town
I'm gonna cast my burden down
A little worse for wear
Practically walking on air

Here’s a hot take that will send any capitalist instantly into paroxysms of fury:

It is not the purpose of the state or the people to ensure the profitability or even the existence of any particular business or industry.

someone pointed out the other week that we are not below the stars but among them ... and it just hit me that even if I never leave Earth I'm technically already in space

But I have a new knife I guess.

So I have needed a new for a while and I bought one today but I messed up lol. I wanted a Gerber Edict or Sharkbelly, but settled for a Kershaw Shuffle II...which is made in China rather than the US, and I paid with my card rather than the cash I had in my pocket specifically for buying a knife.

So I screwed that up hardcore.

Robocalls are the devil. I worked 12 midnight to 9am and my landline got EIGHT ROBOCALLS AT 1 in the afternoon so now I am awake, I am grumpy, I am hungry, it is a bad time
