Motherfucking Wind Farms.

Samuel L. Jackson is a treasure. And every copy of this video hosted elsewhere bleeps it, because we live in a world of cowards.

@grumpygamer me too. one bit of light gleaming in the tumultuous hellscape can really save your day... but also set you up for rapid disappointment in the human species.

@grumpygamer Respect: adapt. overcome. add poo.
@gremlins masks in class and public transit, anything indoors - outdoors/sunlight is fine. it's crummy but it's kept us all covid and flu free.
@grumpygamer a game where the optimal win condition was zero deaths is fascinating.

In the most glorious "fuck you" I have seen in a while, you know the book that Cumberland City Council banned because they're homophobic bigots - Holly Duhig's "A focus on Same Sex Parents"? Well, the publisher, BookLife Publishing, have made a PDF version of the book available for free.

Sure be a shame if it was shared far and wide now, wouldn't it?

Every time you ban a book filled with hope and kindness, and care and love, we will resist.

Remember early in the pandemic when people would claim kids were “virtually immune” to #COVID19 and didn't spread it? New STUDY finds: “70.4% of nearly 850,000 US household COVID-19 transmissions originated with a child… Once US schools reopened in fall 2020, children contributed more to inferred within-household transmission when they were in school, and less during summer and winter breaks, a pattern consistent for 2 consecutive school years.”
