The Phillips head screw is a plague on industrial society and an affront to the dignity of man. Its persistence is entirely the result of a deference to the lower castes. The American design was originally developed as a solution to fast production at the cost of precision. 🧵 https://t.co/rK4b0vBiWM— Chris Ward (@MasterWambo) December 30, 2023

Somebody asked me how one becomes more charismatic, and here’s my responsetldr — be less graspy by becoming more comfortable with yourself. That allows for more playfulness, more spaciousness in intimate interactions, which allows everyone to feel good about themselves https://t.co/DlLUebFUEM— taco belle (@animalologist) December 28, 2023

As AT&T's Lily, actor Milana Vayntrub faced extreme sexual harassment online. She told fans in 2020: "I am not consenting to any of this. I do not want any of this."

Lincoln wasn't particularly, um, progressive on the issue. His primary goal was always to hold the union together (an impossible task), with a secondary one to set the conditions for slavery to end some day in the indefinite future. 4/n pic.twitter.com/4X0LFgZ80w— Brynn Tannehill (@BrynnTannehill) December 28, 2023

ok, I've now read the full NYT complaint filed this morning vs OpenAI and Microsoft. I'm impressed - it's future-focused around fair value for work vital to democracy.

emerald fennell + sam levinson are similar...both have a keen visual eye which makes them not bad directors, but when it comes to writing both get bogged down in trying to subvert and/or shock + lose track of what they're trying to say which makes them both not good writers— fka 🌹 (@holyteerrain) December 25, 2023

We’re deeply disturbed by reports of the Israeli military carrying out field executions of Palestinians as well as horrific images of Palestinians, including children, detained under atrocious conditions in Al-Yarmouk Stadium.

So apparently childish Gambino didn't pay the woman who's on the cover of Awaken my love her residuals.
