Polish YouTube streamer Piotrek Garkowski, aka Łatwogang, has raised over 157,000,000 zł ($43 million USD) for the Cancer Fighters Foundation. I believe this more than doubles the previous livestream record! www.youtube.com/watch?v=UNAq...

@scalzi.com I’m getting Amazon ads for your next book on third party websites (it’s all good because it’s an ad for something I actually want) but look at the book image they’re including. Hopefully this is just a one off but thought I would share.

I tried to refresh my Bluesky notifications but apparently I am FORBIDDEN!!

It's hard to stay task-oriented on what will be either TACO Tuesday or the day before War Crimes Wednesday.

The new dynamic duo of Chris and @scalzi.com They could easily be identical twins separated at birth. Thank You @jococruise.bsky.social for giving us this iconic moment!

Real SOON™!! Hello @jococruise.bsky.social

Doctor: how’s your diet Me: good Doctor: eating… fruit? Me: I had an apple this morning Doctor: you son of a bitch

Two great books that started great series on sale. Highly recommend.

I appear to be sneaking up on the 2K followers milestone, despite my being rather noticeably inconsistent in posting frequency (and quality, I'm sure XD). But if I make it to 2K and appear to be staying there, my little publishing company will make a $500 donation to the Meow Foundation.

Amazon is making a change to Wishlists that may make your address visible to gift buyers, starting on March 25, 2026. They recommend you get a PO Box to protect yourself from accidentally being doxxed.

I wonder if @jacobstreams.com is doing any kind of interesting stream tomorrow... :D

This pup found a stick shaped like an old timey pipe earlier today and has already solved three mysteries. 13/10

This reporting is going to be taught in future history classes. It will make clear why a whole generation was radicalized against fascism at a very young age. It also contains the nerdiest disclosure that I have ever read. (And that's saying something for @theverge.com )

Exactly!

THE LEGO-A-THON RETURNS 🚨 Tomorrow I will build this 2600 piece Lego set... ⏰ 12 hour time limit 🎁 Every sub removes 1 minute If I run out of time I smash it on the floor... 😭 Starts 12pm GMT - live on my channel 👀

I listened to a few @glynnstewart.com books this last year…

A reminder that bringing shitty posts over from That Fascist Site to be performatively angry about them here is a choice you don't have to make! You can just leave them there! There is so much else to be legitimately angry about! You will not lack for content!

Got in a bit of Hytale before work today. Looks like it will be fun.

Sometimes you just have to let @lopatto.bsky.social say it out loud www.theverge.com/policy/85990...

I ended up drafting an email that didn't really lean on research specific to grade school education, but expressed my concerns in the most basic terms. I removed the personal details and have shared it as a template here for folks who might find it useful: bit.ly/TeacherEmail...

I’m really enjoying @thelastcaretaker.bsky.social game. You spend most of your time looting resources and building tools with occasional pest control duties involving a flamethrower. ;)

TIL the original lyrics to Deck the Halls are awesome and “don we now our gay apparel” is temperance movement bullshit

Me talking about writing and my career and how book censoring and white supremacy both suck a lot and also how I got my side gig as the DJ to the nerds

Go ahead, piss Krissy off, I'm sure it'll be fine

This thread.

When you love Star Trek and these creators but won't support a fascist company.... 😢

"When the Moon Hits Your Eye" shows up here, along with books from lots of really excellent writers. A fine list to stock up on SF/F with! www.menshealth.com/entertainmen...

I may have just wasted some money but you only live once! 🤣

The "AI" responses that Google gives about me and my work are consistently error-prone, which I know because I am me. If I know Google's "AI" responses give incorrect answers about things I know about, I can't trust it to give correct answers about things I don't know. So, no, I don't use it.

Tomorrow! 💚 Join us for our 8th Anniversary Raid Train, celebrating 8 years of BGGC!! 🥳 Kicking things off at 11am EST on the BGGC Twitch channel! www.browngirlgamercode.com/8th-annivers... #bggc #codecrew

Dos anyone have recommendations for alternative sites that are anti ai and pro artist?

How old am I? Apparently I'm "sneeze hard and throw your back out" old.

I think the reason rock is dying as a genre is that the singers are always too bossy. They're always telling you to Dance the Night Away or Do the Loco-motion or Pour Some Sugar on Them. SO BOSSY.

Even if you don't share his faith, the way he talks about it is beautiful

HE GREAT JACOBSTREAMS CHAT TALENT SHOW 🗓 This Saturday @ 7pm BST 😎 Guest Judge Lukey 💸 $100 Cash Prize Take part or tune in - it's gonna be fun! 😼

Finally unfollowed The New York Times account. All the stilted reporting was bad enough but now they’re posting straight up ads for Crest Whitening Strips on their social media? No thank you.

Movie you’ve watched more than six times with a gif. Hard mode: no Star Wars, Star Trek, Lord of the Rings, or Marvel

Tonight I was reminded of my favorite quote from the tv show "Fringe"... Walter Bishop: “It’s all because of that temptress. She tricked my son with her carnal manipulations and he fell right into her vagenda!”

It's not doomscrolling today, it's schadenfeed.

Who's going to TwitchCon in San Diego? I was going to skip this year but I'm in full FOMO mode seeing all the fun people are having in Rotterdam. :)

After two years... I'm finally doing the second episode of my IRL gameshow Jacob Jackpots! It puts four streamers head to head to find out: are streamer's smarter than Twitch chatters? 💰Jacob Jackpots: Episode 2 🗓 Friday 30th May @ 4pm BST 📌Live from the Netherlands

This is grotesque

These folks are worth a follow! (Except for the Polygon account itself.) :(
