Window into the mocking with which foreign media is treating the situation. The latest on the live of Le Monde, France’s paper of record: “We’re being told Trump wants to file an appeal with Infantino alleging that the Belgian team played soccer.”

Reminder: we are war crime-ing Cuba right now because Trump and Rubio want to collapse their government. Not a major part of the media discourse but it should be.

Canadiens sign Ivan Demidov to 8-year extension worth $9.15 million a year, adding another piece to their locked-in core: www.nytimes.com/athletic/741...

Saw a couple of posts from US artists saying BSky is now asking them for age verification. Please follow the link in this repost. I’m the UK we’ve had this crap going on for over a year. The methods listed here work great, it’s what I use it (no way I’m providing personal info!)

Me creating anything at all

im an evil pretentious cunt on a good day but bad fic and bad fanart are so important. you gotta keep making that shit. maybe it's not getting the reaction u want and maybe u can tell that it just isn't Good yet and it hurts but like u gotta stick with it. u gotta keep making more.

This is bone-chilling. A conservative hedge fund manager wants to require little girls to pass genital inspections for their “safety.” And it’s only for girls’ sports. There’s a clear link between transphobia and child sexual abuse.

THERE IS NOT ACTUALLY A WAY TO MAKE A WOKE HAYS CODE AND YOU NEED TO STOP ACTING LIKE THERE IS

I now fervently believe this. Relatedly, I think celebrating good news and embracing joy are equally radical. You have to remember what you’re fighting for. We cannot sustainably organize around sorrow.

the key to understanding the rich pricks fretting about the left destroying 'the democratic party' is that when they say 'the democratic party' they mean their gentleman's club. that's where they go to do insider trading & extort the elderly with scam texts. you're not allowed in there

I know this is not the biggest concern going these days, but it stresses me out that basically every artist/writer/critic is now expected to create their own tiny empire instead of getting paid by any existing entity to perform a job they've worked to get good at!!!!

“You have to apologize for winning” really sums up establishment Dem thought huh

Deskilling as a phenomenon should be taken seriously. It’s something all of us do. I used to be a cocktail waiter, but now have to google basic recipes. The worrying aspect is how many are now deskilling while those skills are still actively useful. This is folks opting into skill rental.

"death of the audience" is genuinely unironically good advice for anyone who wants to make anything

Fulfilling all the needs....

this is a complete societal failure, and something has to be done about this very soon

just found out i have Another genetic predisposition to medical bullshit 👍

I got some shit I wanna shout into the void but I only wanna shout it on priv 🗣️

Remember when I said this stuff led to fascism

You're now one of those players, Nick 🥹 #NHLAwards The Frank J. Selke Trophy is presented annually to the forward voted best to excel in the defensive aspects of the game.

I don't know what everyone's complaining about. Just go to settings > features > worms, then change the "worms pouring out of my phone" toggle from "yes" to "maybe later"

The people cry out for Jarnathan

When the Victoire's bus turned the corner onto Ste-Catherine St, Ann-Renée Desbiens saw the crowd, realized she couldn't see pavement and was brought to tears. You can say it was a dream come true, but that would imply they even dreamed of this. Montreal made the day unforgettable. #PWHL

The Montréal Victoire are celebrating their historic Walter Cup win today with fans in the Quartier des Spectacles. The party will take place in the Parterre from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m.

Gee I wonder why women and girls are less inclined to use tools that were popularized via their ability to create fake nude photos of women and girls

actually i kinda *do* think using genAI should be such a social faux pas that the user is marked as a pariah and no longer feels welcome in the community. "AI is bad" is no longer an abstract (it never was), my city has been under a boil water advisory for a week because of AI data centers

A livestream of a volcano in the Philippines captured a meteor crashing to Earth today. What are the odds? Mayon Volcano, Location: Albay, Luzon, Philippines

I DO actually think it's worse to be a fan of the Knights than other hockey teams. I do think that. Of fucking course it is. Things that are fucking bad are not actually equally bad! Some bad things are worse than other bad things. I can't believe this is even a question

- startpage.com is just Google’s search results but anonymized to not provide tailored results. - duckduckgo.com is an alternative to Google that is fine but they made their own search algorithm and it can be a bit funky. - metacrawler.com aggregates multiple search engine results, it’s okay.

#FunFact: #Habs captain Nick Suzuki set a new #GoHabsGo record for longest road playoff point streak with 9 and became the 5th player in #NHL history with a run of that length joining Joe Sakic, Mark Messier, Leon Draisaitl and Peter Forsberg!

Absolute filth from Juraj Slafkovsky to make it 5-2

Ivan Demidov sends Freddie Andersen to the shadow realm and it's 4-1 Habs!

For those of you keeping score at home: • Brady Tkachuk in 4 games vs Carolina: 0 goals and 0 assists • Phil Danault within 8 mins vs Carolina: 1 goal and 1 assist

The Montreal Canadiens:

THE MONTRÉAL VICTOIRE ARE WALTER CUP CHAMPIONS! 🏆 THE FIRST CANADIAN TEAM TO EVER DO SO 🇨🇦 #PWHL

Full offense, but we shouldn't have to stop, hold your hand, and say, "That was a sad choice, wasn't it? Can you help think of a better one?" when writing for adults

ITS A NEWHOOK YES IT IS GOODBYE SABRES

Full play, Carrier gets it to Newhook, and UPL can't make the save

"Me? I can play 40 more"-Jakub Dobes

Somewhere there is a cop car in Montreal living its last day on the mortal plane

Both Montreal hockey teams have a chance their season ends tonight. They will have wildly different emotions attached. On Walter Cup Game 3 and a chance for Montreal’s first pro women’s hockey title in 9 years. #PWHL

This has been said to death but I'll just say it again: if you're in the creative arts space stop calling your art "content". Call it "work"! Calling your art "work" shows it's the result of time and skill. "Content" makes something sound like it has no purpose other than to take up space.

If I see your name more than once in an AO3 kudos email, or if I see your name in multiple AO3 kudos emails, we're friends now. I am handing you a fruity drink. Now we're holding hands

Boy, there's a lot of consternation about Arber Xhekaj dropping Carrick at the end of Game 3. None of that energy applied to Norris throwing an uppercut at Bolduc who is getting tackled by Logan Stanley already, or Dahlin throwing a punch at Veleno after he cross checked him.

not the highest quality video but i just have to share because wow, what a perfectly framed shot
