Can we please make the deep sea the next cool desirable “final frontier” pretty please. I want Elon Musk to design a horrible Tesla Brand submarine and go down to map the Mariana’s Trench for commercial development and watch it crumple like a tin can the second it reaches 200 meters
Zuckerberg is in such better shape than Musk, and is trained in combat sports. This will be humiliating if Elon shows up
I think the rich should engage in bloodsport for the entertainment of the masses more often. Let’s get Kissinger and Cheney into a ladder match.
“What News Story Are They Burying?”
Reminder that if a billionaire CEO does something outrageous in the news, this should always be your first question.
Today that news story is that Meta, Zuckerberg’s company, is blocking all news content in Canada for Facebook and Instagramdue to a new law requiring compensation to news publishers. Facebook is using its vast resources to apply public pressure to stop the laws of a foreign government and protect its profit margins. And they are gettingsued by Malaysia.
I absolutely love the language of my mother’s people
I believe linguistically the term is called Comparative Reduplication! And while a lot of languages have it, including many Indigenous American ones, Yoruba culture holds a lot of influence over how Black Diaspora and AAVE have been shaped. It’s a good video.
“The average US president has been charged with 1.56 felonies” factoid isn’t true. The average US President has been charged with 0 felonies. Donald trump, who has been charged with 72, is a statistical outlier and should not have been counted
The fact that you made this mathematically accurate made my tummy warm
Okay fuck so for like the entire first part I thought this person was like… Using one of those 3d pens to replace lace in this curtain somehow
Then the next couple I was like “wait are they just like painting the curtains a different color? Were the lace threads just black or something on that other one?”
Then finally it clicked and I freaked the fuck out
The /gardening subreddit is actually full of hippie anti-plastic anti-lawn freaks (affectionate) and I find it enjoyable and I saw a nine-word horror story I thought tumblr would enjoy

IF YOU NEED TO GET RID OF MINT, USE OTHER PLANTS IN THE MINT FAMILY!!!
Related plants like lavender, sage, and thyme are immune to mint’s phytotoxins and will crowd out the mint. Rosemary is my favorite mint-killer since it grows fast and wide (regular pruning helps it cover more area).
These plants are perennials, but they are likely to die after a season since mint can harbor root rot that will affect other Lamiaceae but not mint (or plants outside the family). Leave the plant waste to provide soil cover, the mint rhizomes may still be dormant (but will die out soon). The spring after your mint-killers die, you should get some colonizing vegetation. Once those plants fully take root, you’re good to plant whatever your heart desires in the soil!
