One of my favorite musicians/bands is back, better than ever. Overjoyed to have even one more track from them. #IndieMusic #Howard

The White House is 55,000 sq. ft. The new addition is 90,000 sq. ft. Not only is it a disgrace that the entire East Wing is being taken down, but what's going in its place is a monstrocity.

The monied interests are DESPERATE.

A Bush appointee, an Obama appointee, and a Trump appointee ... walk into a courtroom and throw down the gauntlet vs. an outlaw administration and its Supreme Court. Bravo. #SCOTUS

Awww man. One of the greats. Was listening to his outstanding solo LP "Anomaly" just last week. Have a peaceful flight, Spaceman. RIP. #Spaceman #Ace #KISS

what if it really is rapture day but there was only one person virtuous enough and they remained virtuous by living a quiet, solitary life and so nobody has noticed they’re gone and we’ll never know the rapture happened

I notice that the ABC, Nexstar, and Sinclair statements don’t specify what Kimmel said or what was offensive about it, which I would very much like them to try to verbalize.

Disney owns a hell of a lot. Here's a list.

@msnbc.com Now that you have a better understanding of how you hastily and wrongfully fired Matthew Dowd, you can apologize to him, and quietly reinstate his job. It was a mistake, clearly you can see this now.

Doctors I trust more than RFK, Jr.:

Need some belly laughs right now? Go see The Naked Gun. It honors Police Squad and the original movies. Tips: Don't watch the full trailer if you haven't already (below is the teaser), read the credits, and stay until they're over. #NakedGun

I needed some good news today. #CoyoteVsAcme

We are sending people to be tortured. Garcia asked to stay in jail rather than take the risk of being kidnapped and sent somewhere equal or worse. Where is Andry José Hernandez Romero? Where are the others we sent on that plane?

In 1996 some eager entrepreneur left a card underneath the wiper of my car when it was parked on the street in Queens, urging me to call and take advantage of a once-in-a-lifetime chance to make millions selling a new product called webtv. My roommate and I then used that card to clean our weed.

The Democratic Party is going to try to downplay the stunning Mamdani victory as an outlier in one of America's bluest cities. They do so at their own peril. Affordable housing for all, universal childcare for preschoolers, food security, healthcare as a right are messages that can win nationally.

Thanks for the reminder @janemunday.bsky.social. Every summer, I repost this article DROWNING DOES NOT LOOK LIKE DROWNING. To date, I know of FOUR kids who were saved after someone who'd clicked on the link learnt how to spot actual drowning. Take time to read and pass on. slate.com/technology/2...

As always, Elie is spot on.

Trolling is not ideologically specific. Some people are just trolls. Use the Bluesky mantra: "ignore and block." There will still be PLENTY of people with whom to engage in great convos. There’s no excuse for supporting a Nazi platform, especially not because your feelings got hurt. ☮️

One of the highlights of my time at CMJ was seeing Brian Wilson + band perform in a small room at the premiere of Don Was' fantastic documentary. Brian was all smiles after they played, "Do It Again," and we couldn't stop cheering. He was so excited, he said, "let's play it again!" And they did. RIP

I'm really loving this so far, which probably means no one else is watching it and that it will get canceled. Only annoying bit is waiting seven days for each new 18-20 minutes of content. But then, I guess I deserve it since people have been writing to me for years about my podcast delivery speed.

Let's bring back an engine that outputs less HP and torque than its replacement and create a marketing campaign around it for people who hate progress. How American. #MURICA

Repost with a favorite Classic Who villian or monster that isn't The Master, The Daleks, or The Cybermen.

24 years after leaving CMJ, I finally made it into Rolling Stone! 😆 The show was excellent, as is the band's new album! Get the double vinyl if you can find it - the extra vinyl-only tracks are well worth searching out. #IndieMusic #SunflowerBean www.rollingstone.com/music/music-...

Page 3 of "Forest for the Trees," a supernatural thriller about a widower police chief and his daughter dealing with loss, legacy, reconnection, and an ancient creature that haunts the town in which they live. #Scriptsky #Screenwriting

What’s a movie that’s basically a masterpiece but no one talks about? 🎥 🖤 How did I never notice Sam Rockwell isn't one of the top actors in this movie poster for Box of Moonlight?

An incredible read.

Threads was one of the most terrifying movies I saw as a young teen. While I'm sure this is going to be awesome, I'm wondering if we really need this right now?

Are there any sites where you can bet on movie releases? Because even though this had like a 52% on RT and criticism of the trailer, I just knew this was gonna be huge. I can't wait to see it. I could really use some escapist fun right now.

Aw man. Just heard about Val Kilmer. I think my high school friends and I watched Top Secret a dozen times or more when it came out on VHS. So many brilliant roles, but my favorites were the comedies. If you haven't seen "Kiss Kiss, Bang Bang," you should fix that immediately. RIP #ValKilmer

More of this please.

“If you read the news, it feels like Armageddon,” Musk said during an all-hands Tesla meeting broadcast Thursday on X. “I understand if you don’t want to buy our product, but you don’t have to burn it down. That’s a bit unreasonable.” Could say the same about you and America, Leon. #TeslaTakedown

Post your favourite Doctor Who. Wrong answers only.

It was a good #Caturday. My son and I got the Beetle engine out and a good way torn down.

How did we know Schumer would cave? Because we've been here before. I asked Perplexity what happened, and it's even more telling than I remembered.

I feel like it's asking too much of me right now. On the flip side, it was some of the most amazing Chinese food I've ever had. So... gratitude?

I really needed a new Sunflower Bean track, and this one is all kinds of retro groovy. I cannot wait for this album. --------- "Nothing Romantic" is about rejecting the myth of the tortured artist—realizing that the joys of creativity don’t have to come from the lows of misery. #Indie #IndieMusic

Fighter jet just boomed over the house headed toward Manhattan. Nothing concerning about that these days.

When they come for me I’m definitely ratting out this guy who radicalized me

Perhaps it's time to revisit this question.

I'll say it again. Stop watching MSNBC. Cancel your cable news package and stop also funding FOX and Newsmax on the side. Get straight news from apnews.com and sub to WIRED, 404 Media, The Lever for news/opinion. If you need video, The Majority Report, Democracy Docket, Brian Tyler Cohen on YouTube.

"Sorry, creatives. You're getting in the way of our 'swagger.'" Between this and Coyote vs. Acme, I never want to buy/rent/watch/play another WB product in my lifetime. I'm sure there will be some great Wonder Woman stories in a few years when the copyright expires. WB should just let it go *now*.

Was going through some old docs. Apparently, I had written to Douglas Adams when I was 15. I just looked up the game because I don't think I ever ended up playing it. Anyone else remember Infocom games? Think I had a few of these. Not sure if I ever finished one, but they had the coolest cover art.

For those who aren't biologists: This is a biosafety cabinet. Every biomedical research lab in the country has one or more of these bio safety cabinets. They use air flow to protect cells from contamination by bacteria and fungal spores while you are working with them.

One of the most incredible theater events I've ever experienced. There are a few showings later this month. If it's playing near you, and you are at ALL interested, DO NOT MISS this. Absolutely transcendent.

If this weekend taught me anything about Bluesky, it's that going forward, it really has become the place for breaking news - the very latest happenings everywhere. The bird is dead. Hello @bsky.app .
