Trump's adding his signature to paper currency, according to Reuters.

Today MLB TV viewers get their first look at the ads that will slowly drive them insane over the season

Oh my gosh! The armed death squads are so helpful!

I find it so funny that whenever I appear in a documentary, I look like a completely different person from one doc to the next, but also look nothing like I do in real life. It's nice, because nobody will recognize me.

There were some technical difficulties last night as people tried to tune in for the first mayoral debate. Lucky for you all, I wrote a summary of the main highlights for @lapublicpress.bsky.social. Stay tuned! I'll be covering this mayoral election cycle. lapublicpress.org/2026/03/la-e...

Reading the jacket copy of Morgan Day’s The Oldest Bitch Alive and oh hell yeah. Put this up there with Henry Hoke’s Open Throat.

That they denied it is arguably funnier than anything Maher has ever said.

Ok so like I do think kids should learn cursive for neurodevelopment reasons, because it seems to activate and strengthen the corpus callosum and helps with fine motor movements and builds neural pathways for learning. But the way he’s talking about it *sounds* so silly lol

I must have a very different definition of jock cuz all I see are wall-to-wall nerds who got way too into steroids to compensate.

Remember when USPS had a contract to buy a fleet of EVs and Trump made them cancel it and go back to gas?

57 of my fellow students were arrested, academically disciplined, and barred from campus 2 weeks before finals. And then the visas of some of those students were quietly revoked. And then the DEI office was killed. And then we watched our mentors’ grants evaporate over “woke”.

Whenever I talk to Mason about his new book, I nod so much my neck hurts, because there's no one better to discuss the human endeavor behind art and why art without that is nothing. www.theguardian.com/culture/2026...

Oh my god lol the voice they gave this lady robot

Gang. GANG. Here's that Ghanian bootleg Cheers artwork you were looking for.

Magnolia picked up John Wilson's The History Of Concrete today and is planning on putting it in theaters later this year, which is so sick avclub.com/the-history-...

The ceviche in Tulum made me see God.

Funny thing about American mass media is how woke content is broadly popular, routinely pays for itself, and sometimes goes blockbuster, whereas right-wing content is a narrow niche that rarely reaches breakeven, never goes blockbuster, and usually requires immense subsidies for it to exist at all.

First, the good news. The bathwater has been disposed of.

"Most jarring is Bradley County Constable District 7 in Tennessee: a single officer received a base award of $107,525, followed by a $11,500 salary bump — and now a further modification appears to add $1,820,550 in new funding for that one cop." www.kenklippenstein.com/p/exclusive-...

I agree 100% with Steven Vickers that authors will be falsely accused of using AI in the coming years. In particular, authors like myself whose works were stolen to train AI systems are at risk. When we write in our own unique styles, AI trained on us will quite likely flag us as using AI.

What is marketed as AI “innovation” is, in practice, a consolidation of global labor hierarchies and a commodification of African knowledge, write Marché Arends and Kathryn Cleary, drawing on their year-long investigation supported by the Pulitzer Center and published by Africa Uncensored.

i guess those celebrating soras death didnt get the memo that some of us need daily personalized greetings from james bond—for mental health

Well my life is going better than I'd say 95% of humanity's ever has, I have a big house in suburban California, money hasn't been and won't ever be a problem for me. I guess it's time to tell that Reacher guy to fuck himself

If you're a person in leadership who hasn't groomed a successor to carry on your legacy, because you want to stay in power until you die, you've failed. It doesn't even matter what you've accomplished. You are bad at your job and will be remembered that way.

So the Stan girlies have shown that a lot of the accounts that are posting this weird Chappell Roan made an 11 year old girl cry were also used in the Blake Lively/ Amber Heard smear campaigns and considering she just ditched an agent for being in the Epstein files- I’m with them

WHAT kind of parade???

Every image from this wikihow page on learning to be a mime has cracked me up that burger one is gonna haunt me.

Getting an up-close look without masks at these demographics is wild. Everyone is 12 now, but especially half of the ICE recruits, I guess?

Ok I have to ask because when I was teaching at Boise State my office was in a rundown fourplex home to multiple black widows where inevitably at least one of us would have to post up in a dingy bathroom to work: these new college shows—are there offices really that nice out there?

ICE is incompatible with a constitutional democracy and must be abolished.

"In the first seven months of his second term, authorities arrested and detained parents of at least 11,000 U.S. citizen children — a number that, if the pace held up, will have roughly doubled by now. That’s an average of more than 50 U.S. citizen kids a day with a parent pulled into detention."

In honor of the 20 year anniversary of the passing of “Parable of the Sower” and “Kindred” author Octavia E. Butler, @marinamasako.bsky.social rode the @metrolosangeles.bsky.social 18 Line to talk about her legacy. #MetroPartner

we have reached the “this is Trump’s fault, personally, please don’t yell at us” stage already things are going great

GOP Senators John Kennedy and Ted Cruz devised this off-ramp, Kennedy says on Fox: "Senator Thune submitted that to President Trump. As is his right, he said no. ‘No deals with the Democrats.’ It would have worked. We could have had TSA paid by the end of the week. But the president said no deal."

Dog forbid women have hobbies

I think there is... a chicken... loose... outside? Let's see how the den of coyotes in the backyard deals with this one.

The little vest grabbing thing they all do... we've gotta get a name for that and make it as socially acceptable as jacking off in public as soon as possible.

The Ms. Rachel potty training special and accompanying book is fucking magic. Parents are so blessed this weird woman is out there doing her thing I don't care how annoying you think she is.

that feels like something you say when you're wearing a wire

I just want Justice Jackson to have some actual peers on the court. I can't imagine what it does to your psyche to work alongside some of the dumbest, most spiritually bankrupt people in the entire world.

I actually feel vaguely sick, just powerlessly watching this slow-motion disaster unfold

If Democrats were freaking the F out they'd have gotten their shit together and narrowed the field before the ballot deadline
