"I'm in my late 20s and I'm scared I've already peaked" just don't peak then, idiot. what do you mean like you're going to just stop trying to think harder and build taller and learn more and get luckier and read deeper and dress better and fuck weirder and run faster and draw crazier and smoke danker and dance bigger and steal better and stun everyone with your cunty charm and zeal because, what, you think those are the rules? get real. get up. you have another 50 years and you're not going to use them??? give them to me.

And they don't even pay her!

Being a scifi writer is like being a techbro with a cheat code

Those idiots are all out there designing the Truck of the Future and libertarian ocean cities where everyone lives in pods and AI-monitored linear cities in the desert and then falling on their faces because they can't actually fucking build it or make it work. With scifi you can skip that shit. I can just be like "Arborea Atlantica is a massive floating island made of genetically engineered trees and its population's main industry is maintaining their engineered ecosystem and do I have to try to engineer any trees? No. All these Future City and Ocean Civilisation and AI Utopia people are giving themselves extra impossible tasks for no reason.

Nobody would've laughed at cryptocurrency if it had shown up in Snow Crash instead of the real world.

I'm pretty sure it did but they called them designer avatars

How the hell did I see the word crypto currency and read nft

Same reason you see lululemon and think essential oils. Same scam different garbage.

I always thought lululemon was a children's TV show

Envisioning a cocomelon-based pyramid scheme now

My apologies to lululemon, a presumably innocent (of this particular thing) clothing store chain.

i dont like treats anymore

april fooled you

honestly even the highest concept sci-fi seems tame once you learn BioSteel™ Goats exist irl

What the fuck are you talking about

you know. the spider goats. the goats spliced with spider genes.

they shoot bulletproof webbing out of their udders!

ok ok that last part’s not technically true, but the truth is still pretty nifty:

ko-fi

May I add the fantastic glow in the dark cats. They’ve been tagged with a gene from jelly fish that causes them to glow and that can be passed down. Was used to help study how other genes were passed.

for those wondering, yes glow-in-the-dark jellyfish cats are a real thing and they are helping scientists with AIDS research

I love how this reads as if the cats are actively choosing to assist with scientific research.

see the THING IS I don't feel like I ever worked hard enough to have "earned" the burnout, which is. probably how we got here.

Cory Booker has been talking in the senate for over 20 hours now

He’s not filibustering. He’s protesting the current administration.

For those of you from outside the US or those of you who didn’t pay attention in government class, in the US senate there’s really no limit to the amount of time a senator can speak. So sometimes if they don’t want a bill to pass they just. Don’t stop talking. To hopefully get past the deadline to vote on a bill. This is called filibustering.

Senator Cory Booker isn’t doing that. He’s disrupting “the normal business of the United States Senate for as long as I am physically able”. Just in protest. This doesn’t usually happen.

He’s less than 20 minutes away from breaking the record of the longest speech given on the senate floor

Cory Booker has officially broken Strom Thurmond’s record for longest speech on the senate floor and he’s still going

For those of you wondering what he’s been talking about this whole time, his staff wrote down a bunch of stuff for him to read like stories from people across the political spectrum opposed to what the administration is doing. He’s also been telling personal anecdotes about meeting important civil rights leaders and other democratic senators have been pausing him for “questions” but the questions have been as long as a small speech and have both served the purpose of giving him a second to sit down and updating him on the news that he’s been missing while he’s been talking.

He has yielded the floor at 25 hrs and 4 mins. His eyes are so wide they look like they’re going to bug out of his skull so I don’t blame him for stopping. He said to go out and get in some good trouble.

Addition for those unaware: Cory Booker is black. Strom Thurmond set the previous record about 70 years ago in protest of civil rights. Booker spent much of the time I was watching talking about the importance of working together for the people and the idea that it's not "left versus right but right versus wrong."

The new record speech is on the right side of history.

Minor correction: the questions from other Democrats did not allow him to sit down as he must remain standing and at his desk in order to retain the floor. Additionally, I believe the final time was 25 hours and 7 minutes.

Self correction: final time 25 hours 5 minutes.

hte real april foule… was you.

for thinkjghing I did not care abou you.

my friende.
