Luke Kornet will return tonight for the #Spurs per @jmcdonaldsa.bsky.social (and Mitch Johnson)

If you’re seeing this viral claim that Trump is working on 15-year car loans, it’s fake.

low polyamory

Reality show where a different member of the Democratic caucus is locked in a room with Bill Kristol for 24 hours

Nancy Pelosi was a groundbreaking Speaker, but she was too focused on getting Democrats to respect the will of their voters. by Chuck Schumer

I'm starting to understand why an ostensibly progressive candidate having a Nazi tattoo wasn't a dealbreaker for some people.

Whaddya think #dragonage fam…should we do something wild for Dragon Age Day this year? 🤔

Turning toys into Gender has had catastrophic consequences for society.

The original PS1 game clocked in at ~100 hours in a time when most of its contemporaries could be played to 100% completion in 30. And a lot of that wasn't meaningful content but tedious busywork like screen transitions.

In like any other game I’d be shaking my head at them streamlining it but I need you to understand that you don’t unlock the jobs system in the original game until FORTY HOURS IN

Having a majority whose position is "vengeance against the country" is an unpleasant experience and we should probably not have collectively done it.

I think in this particular instance the thing is mainly that the GOP is completely willing to let children starve to prove a political point (specifically that they will let people die from lack of access to healthcare)

Israel discourse is cursed because on the one hand people absolutely are antisemitic about Israel and lobbying but on the other hand it is literally true that AIPAC describes themselves as lobbying for Israel

I guess the FIAT lucky sperm is under some pressure now, as well he should be. If anyone should STFU and do something for Ferrari, his name is John Elkann. #F1

Bill Clinton use to play golf with Trump, and Bill & Hilary attended Trump's wedding to Melania. Both the political & entertainment establishments platformed and normalized Trump to Americans.

Okay no, absolutely not. We are not doing "Jar Jar Binks is woke, actually"

After we defeat Trumpism, all MAHA and Kennedy supporters will be forced to go with me to a cemetery to understand why we vaccinate, sanitize, and why modern medicine in general is a good thing.

lmfao i hadn't realized until now that OpenAI has altogether promised 1.5 trillion in compute spending that's Trillion with a T brother i don't think the pornbot subscriptions are gonna get you there

I actually also think that the left performatively getting mad at the cavers is useful in this dance

Legendary musician & activist Peter Gabriel celebrates the Internet Archive hitting 1 trillion pages & reflects on its role in preserving humanity’s memory. More ⤵️ blog.archive.org/2025/11/10/v... #Wayback1T @itspetergabriel.bsky.social

I once sat across a table from a friend-of-friend while they ranted at some length about "chemicals" in food until I asked them to define what they meant by "chemicals," at which point they stared at me agog, as it clearly never crossed their mind before. I guess that person works for NPR now.

It is generally considered good scientific practice to define a thing before making sweeping statements about characterizing the health effects of that thing.

NBA has fined Brandon Ingram 25k for whipping his water bottle on Saturday. It hit floor, hit arena attendant and caused delay.

2026 is *already* an anti-incumbency mini-wave just based on the number of retirees and non-runnings being the second highest since 2012. There will be more, and most actual primary challenges haven't announced yet. Most of this was already baked-in. You cannot out-run TIME.

was much too focused on the downer news the past couple of days so as a counter to all that: this is incredibly awesome

This is what happens when your site's userbase is composed of politically engaged nerds

The only thing Bsky talks more about than politics is space politics.

Thinking about how Austin Powers: The Spy Who Shagged Me had to be exclusively marketed as just “Austin Powers 2” during its UK release

a lot of "moderates" are just people in cities or progressive circles who don't like being part of a low status right, imo there are real moderates, but they tend to be much weirder than this

Me to a not-insignificant portion of this site's userbase:

“Rather than taking over the Democratic Party the same way the right took over the Republican Party, we should take the easier route and just start up a new party ourselves!” I’m about to fill my pockets with stones and walk into the sea.

This is even more interesting given how Zohran didn't become Mayor-elect of New York by running as a "third party" candidate. He won the Democratic primary which crucially meant that Cuomo had to run against him as an independent, and guess what happened?

There’s a two party duopoly in this nation. Is it great? No! Is it reality? Yes. Creating a third party means building up an entirely new infrastructure from scratch and then fighting both R & D. Taking over the Dem Party is an easier and more effective route. It’ll take time, but it’s worth it.

the smart boy journalist class has adopted as their worldview what i can only describe as The Secret but with less magic

This meme but it’s New Vegas jank on top and Skyrim jank on the bottom.

I have thoughts, and they aren’t going to fit neatly into Bluesky posts. Briefly: 1. The deal sucks. 2. Probably not as much as you think it does. 3. It’s good to be mad. 4. FFS, be madder at the GOP. 5. Strategy is hard. 5b. Timing matters. 6. The fight isn’t over. 7. Go pet a cat. (Or a dog.)

i advise everyone to consider that it is possible to be wrong about things i increasingly get the impression that a substantial amount of posters here sincerely do not ever expect to possibly be wrong

People aren't complaining that every Rockstar game is fundamentally the same even though they are, because for a variety of reasons people aren't mad at That Thing the way they're increasingly mad at Skyrim.

It does, but they also have an infinite money printing machine in GTA online. Bethesda is beholden to Microsoft, a company that is clearly tired of having a gaming division at all.

you have to show the same level of “wait and see” to a house or senate challenger that you would to a hinge date or a steam launch

“primary every democrat” only becomes a serious threat if bsky doesn’t go goo goo babies over platner-esque candidates

Bold prediction for the #F1 #LasVegasGP: Kimi Antonelli for pole and win.

I think Bethesda is doomed. They’re in this weird position where Skyrim is remembered as both extremely innovative and fresh and also patient zero for every problem with big open world games today. TES VI has to be both completely fresh and extremely accessible to be seen broadly as a success.

BREAKING: The Supreme Court denied an attempt to challenge Obergefell v. Hodges, the case affirming marriage equality nationwide. Our freedom to marry remains the law of the land.

Some Democrats do something bad. Cue foreign "we just want to divide you against yourselves" agents, telling the "I will never vote D because my precious ideals have been violated" story. Then a number of decent people decide not to organize for the fight and instead be worthless contrarians. 🤷

After shootaround, Spurs officially calling Luke Kornet (ankle) a game-time decision tonight in Chicago. It's sounding like he's getting awfully close.

Senate Dems 🤝 Edmund Fitzgerald the gales of November came early

I'm going to say it: Ferrari does not deserve Charles Leclerc. He's too good for them.
