Happy someone's providing care of The Onions of yesterday and today ☺️ 📜

OpenAI’s ChatGPT, Google’s Gemini, Microsoft’s Copilot and other models are befuddling students, researchers and archivists by generating “incorrect or fabricated archival references,” according to ICRC, which runs some of the world’s most used research archives. #AI #libraries

RIP to an icon deadline.com/2025/12/cary...

The second after I say I'm an archivist, I get, "Oh, like Indiana Jones?"

Now this is journalism. Point it out. POINT IT THE FUCKOUT. They are PRETENDING to not get it.

This!! We were one of the least taxed colonies and our landed gentry got their panties in a twist because they couldn't smuggle shit as easily as before. The pettiness of Americans is long lived.

Gonna watch the docu when I get some free time, but liking what I'm hearing so far. To the point below, the 7 Years War, while a huge catalyst for the Revolution from a financial perspective, was just as much about colonists' desire for land west of the Appalachians that Britain wouldn't allow

DONT FALL FOR MTG’S BULLSHIT SHE IS STILL A VIOLENT ANTISEMITE WHO BLAMES JEWS FOR EVERYTHING WRONG IN THE WORLD A FULLY ENDORSES GREAT REPLACEMENT THEORY

One, MTG hasn't truly apologized. Two, unless that woman is a former Parkland student, Jewish, or the lightest ****ing Black person on earth, there's no apology for her to accept because nothing was done TO HER. Three, MTG has not moved away from any part of the current bigoted Republican platform.

Free zine picked up from a Nashville record shop: Jackie Shane, 1940-2019, #4 in the Nashville Queer History mini zine series.

Here for some The Silt Verses praise! It beautifully written, wonderfully acted by an incredible voice cast, and I want more people to fall in love with it! Planning to write a thing about the archival themes in a world of gods and monsters...eventually. The river rises!

Watched the new Frankenstein last night, been mulling it over most of today, and I'm happy to say I liked it! Always a delight to watch @realgdt.bsky.social play with monsters and the hubris of men.

JD Vance is also not “necessary, safe, and effective.”

Katie Wilson has been elected Seattle's next mayor www.seattletimes.com/seattle-news...

Some really great queer/trans audio drama recs!

ISHMAEL by Daniel Quinn. It reshaped how I looked at storytelling, narrative perspective, and the Bible as an historical text. I kid you not, the premise is a man learns stuff from a psychic gorilla and it changed a lot of my critical thinking when I was a teen.

votes in local elections are sooo impactful! ahhh it’s too close!

Democrats were overwhelmingly united on their shutdown demands. Americans understood that Trump and Republicans were to blame. Voters made it known last Tuesday that they'll elect leaders who stand up to Trump. Democrats held the cards — and folded for no reason.

This kid is launching a million YA pitches with this interview lololol

Hell yes and also send this to all your Boomer dads and remind them how much public media matters

Ok yeah that sign generator is kinda fun

Obviously this is ridiculous as a policy for employees but also as a customer my blanket preference from any people working in any store anywhere ever is “leave me the absolute fuck alone” Smiling?? Eye contact?? TALKING TO ME???? Absolutely not!!!!

talk to your friends folks. it's time for some cure

That’s a neat lineup.

Solving the housing problem, one racist cop at a time

Good morning #ttrpg folks! Thank you for the amazing launch for #AW3rd! Y’all have pushed us so far over the stretch goal for the digital e-zine of additional materials we’re going to have to think about what might come next. It’s a lovely day! Let’s see where this thing can go!

I have just the photo for this important scientific work

Kids these days don’t even chime in, “Haven’t you people ever heard of closing the god damn door,” and I just think that’s really sad.

Will you be in London on Dec 3rd? Perhaps you'd like to come to UCL and hear me talk with Matthew J. Smith about my new book, and potentially even get a book from me without paying international shipping! www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/the-house-...

"So to Donald Trump, if you are watching, and I know you are... I have four words for you. TURN THE VOLUME UP" *Loud cheers*

I just want to thank @pbsnews.org @pbs.org for providing such a great stream of tonight's Mamdani pre-party and speech! If you also watched PBS' stream tonight, remember to donate so they can keep providing community-connecting content like this! I know I will!

THIS. I've been saying this for many, many months. This is a time for a new kind of politics. We don't live in an Old World Two-Party system anymore. "Reaching across the aisle" doesn't work so well. It's fascism vs. democracy. And you don't compromise with fascists.

Zohran Mamdani wins! He ran on an unabashedly pro-transgender platform, stood up for the most vulnerable, as so many have pushed for the Democratic Party to abandon trans people in order to win. Major win for trans New Yorkers - he has vowed for intense resistance to anti-trans Trump policies.

As always, when Republicans know they can't win they don't moderate their positions, they cheat. Tell your friends in Pierce County, don't trust shady mailers from Jesse Young's friends, instead use trusted sources like the Progressive Voters Guide: progressivevotersguide.com/washington/c...

Go. Fucking. VOTE!!!!

I don't believe in Hell, but if it exists, I hope he's way down there. His damage to the world is massive, and helped lead to the horror that is today. apnews.com/article/dick...

My wife @zoandbehold.bsky.social in NY Mag today!!!

We strongly condemn @CondéNast’s consolidation plans for Teen Vogue, a move that is clearly designed to blunt the award-winning magazine’s insightful journalism at a time when it is needed the most. More from our statement:

364 days till Halloween! #Halloween

A friendly reminder that if you’re passing out candy and someone comes to your door, you give them candy! No costume? No problem! Teenager? No problem! No eye contact? No problem! If that bothers you, remember the spirit of this night is bribing people to not egg your house. Roll with it!

this is exactly how to do it in 2025

It’s OUT! The Séance of Blake Manor is a game I’d be BUZZIN’ for regardless, but I’m IN it and all! Thrillt and delighra to be involved with this absolute work of art - out just in time for me to play all day for my birthday tomorrow 🥳🥳

Guillermo del Toro on wealth: "a wealthy man is a man who has enough, not a man that needs more. If you have enough to invite someone for a beer? You're rich. If you have a yacht, planes, islands, and you still need more? You're not rich."

Folks are talking about this, and YES. Every Democratic politician and every Democratic Party HQ should be gearing up to GIVE PEOPLE FOOD NEXT WEEK.
