I get that the news cycle is packed right now, but I just heard from a colleague at the Smithsonian that this is fully a GIANT SQUID BEING EATEN BY A SPERM WHALE and it’s possibly the first ever confirmed video according to a friend at NOAA 10 YEAR OLD ME IS LOSING HER MIND (a thread 🧵)

The Yankees team doctor

It’s still strange trying to wrap my head around the fact that the podcast @atschwitters.bsky.social and I do, which as the name suggests can be rather bawdy, was part of a question on a prime time game show on network television.

Ahem!

This is the dumbest bullshit I’ve read in awhile. Bravo!

This movie goes so hard. Pure insanity

Incredible clip, needs to be dropped and remixed into 1,000 songs pronto

I will vote for the first candidate who tells me they're going to make the biggest government possible. Reacher-sized agencies. Braun Strowman-level social benefits. Government so big it starts belching out National Parks and free healthcare. Chungus State.

So obviously we’re still in the middle of @atschwitters.bsky.social paternity leave, but we are still dropping archived eps that have been behind the paywall for a while, and this week’s is maybe Adam and @oldmanduggan.bsky.social’s favorite SVU ever. Let’s get WET!

other than genociding native people, getting rich from imported slaves, operating a racial apartheid state, using nuclear weapons against civilians, violently disrupting democracies across the world, and arming and supporting a current racial apartheid state, this is america's darkest moment.

To mark "Trump will declare a national emergency for mass deportations" day: here is the initial spreadsheet of our crowd-sourced *local* immigration advocacy/support organizations. Please share widely, put to good use, and keep letting me know about more organizations folks can connect with.

We live in a time where the least powerful are crushed with the harshest sentences, are made homeless if they are merely late to work but our billionaires, presidents and electeds simply float through life like plankton, agency-free, unable to control the forces directing their behavior.

Director-writer David Lynch, who radicalized American film with with a dark, surrealistic artistic vision in films like “Blue Velvet” and “Mulholland Drive” and network television with “Twin Peaks,” has died. He was 78. bit.ly/40is3yQ

Great job not doing this before the election

Dumbest nation on earth strikes again

Trump's Greenland obsession is a very concrete example of why the Mercator projection is bad.

Oh man, I laughed so much while editing this one. Tons of fun shit in here. @heyseanmcgrath.bsky.social HATING a kid actor is always one of my favorite things, but @mikewiebe.bsky.social’s story about what happened while he was bartending at Rio Rita had me laughing so hard.

liberal donors funding local news is a good plan but the idea that discussing the ideological direction of Dems before the propaganda discussion “is putting the cart before the horse” has it backwards. Dem media sucks because the party is rudderless, smug, and run by lawyers and mercenary PR flacks

Comic/frontman of Riverboat Gamblers & Drakulas, @mikewiebe.bsky.social joins us to dive into growing up in the ‘80s in Texas and how that ties specifically into next week’s flick. This one’s a blast, and it’s a movie I suspect A LOT of our audience has a relationship with.

pretty grim when health insurance company executives have to try to hide their identities online like they're public school history teachers, government employees or doctors who care for transgender people

NEW: 3 more LA sheriff's deputies have been relieved of duty over this WILD investigation into a crypto mogul who allegedly hired cops to do crimes for him Even wilder: He allegedly spent his ill-gotten gains on leg-lengthening surgery that he now needs reversed www.latimes.com/california/s...

Thank you for this screenshot Josh. The little guy will love it

The ship was the pride of the American side coming back from some mill in Wisconsin. As the big freighters go, it was bigger than most, with a crew and good captain well seasoned. Concluding some terms with a couple of steel firms, when they left fully loaded for Cleveland, and later that night when

Have we got a doozy for you this week. In an unprecedented turn, this SVU chose an accomplished actress with Down syndrome and an actor who'd later be the top-billed star of prestige dramas to play two characters with Down syndrome. The results were something that needs to be seen to be believed.

Imagine an SVU where Benson finds herself in a hostage situation--any course of events that'd land her in a standoff with just her wits to get her out of it. In your hypothetical, did things happened to get her there? Well, Townhouse Incident gets her there at the 2:12 mark. This was our Vietnam.
