this is a challenging day to take off work because my boss knows i'm a baseball fan and knows it's opening day but i don't want her to think i sincerely care enough about the nationals that i'd play hookie to watch them drop game one of one hundred

On this 115th anniversary of the Triangle Shirtwaist Factory fire, we remember the victims – who were primarily young immigrant women. We also carry forward the lessons of this painful moment in NYC's history. Reckless, unchecked greed resulted in mass catastrophe. (1/3)

Happy Opening Day

In “Grackles”, a historian researching the lives of two magical vagabonds from a family legend learns that their story is older and stranger than he could have imagined. New from K.Ferngall! @lifemadesimple.bsky.social www.mysteriononline.com/2026/03/grac...

Robert E. Lee got his ass beat at Gettysburg by a professor of rhetoric and oratory from Bowdoin College and generations of reactionary fantasists have died mad about it.

The times square Hershey store apparently sells Hershey-ets* by the bag, God is good, life is worth living etc *M&M's but with Hershey chocolate inside basically

comic book archive editions peaked with those DC Archive editions. Beautiful printings, really nice quality, and - most important of all - every Z list golden age title got a book. I've got an archive edition collection of "Seven Soldiers of Victory". Marvel could never.

We ARE the 27%

this is the kind of place I'd get dragged when I was living in DC and trying to make friends post college

Jesus when he comes back to Earth:

5 of the best picture noms were really really good movies. and one of them won. people will be normal about this i assume

i can't believe the oscars put Charlie Kirk in the in memoriam

A sort of interesting dynamic I think about sometimes: my grandmother lived in an era where once something was off air, it was just kind of gone. If an obscure (bad) piece of art stuck with you as a kid, you could never revisit it. It just stayed that thing that was important to you at age 8.

I'm sitting on my couch as the sun comes up, it's the 24-Hour Best Picture Marathon! I'll post my thoughts here (longer ones on my letterboxd). There will also be Snoopy's thoughts and other random observations as the mania of staying up 28 hours gets to me. First up: Bugonia

Yeah, we could actually just show alien abductions that glow in the dark and it turns out, damn, people are into that shit

My crank opinion is that your smallest circulating coin should be able to buy you a single piece of small candy, your largest should be able to buy you a crappy meal. That would be basically 10¢ --> $5. That's about the range of the penny to the half dollar through the 50's iirc.

People who love coins and visit Japan absolutely return going “why the fuck aren’t we doing coins like that here? they’re beautiful and useful!”

Politically, this is incredibly stupid, but as a policy matter it’s also incredibly stupid. The Democrats!

WGAE members at CBS News 24/7 are prepared to STRIKE if CBS/Paramount management doesn't reach a fair contract today. Members delivered a strike pledge signed by 95% of the 60-member bargaining unit.

Libbing out for the TL: Wow great work Trump! Climate Stalining Internally: Only once you pay a price reflective of the true external impacts of your addiction to and reliance on oil will you see that this is no way to live. Good news is we’re not going to wait that long

Give me recs!!! Tastes are pretty vanilla, mostly vibey indie stuff, folk, folk punk, pop punk, but TBH I'll listen to anything once

Unfortunately, “Yo brother, legal team confirmed we can’t work with minors rn” is an instant classic

What a stupid time to have a degree in International Relations.

i got a spongebob tattoo and i retweet spongebob fan accounts all the time and i went on a podcast with a spongebob influencer and told him i loved his podcast and appreciated being on. but all of my friends will "freak out" if you say i like spongebob. and well, thats basically just, totally normal

CBS News is obviously Under New Management, which is problematic, but apparently there are still lots of people there doing the work they always did. And once again, I note the segment does not feature a response from the WH.

If you honk at me I should be allowed to ask you where it is you have to be. 90% of the time it’s Target

It's so cool that the fbi is basically the make a wish foundation for one podcaster

Local comic book shop in Bay Ridge, Brooklyn is closing. Recs on where to go next? Ideally close ish to bay ridge?

Any car that hasn't moved in the period between the last storm ending and the next storm beginning should immediately be towed, stripped of hazardous materials, and dumped into the Atlantic Ocean to become artificial reefs like they do with old subway cars.
