EVERYBODY SHUT UP defunctland finally dropped a four hour follow up to his history of animatronics at disney world

Happy Partially Muscled Skeleton Day to all who celebrate. Be sure to let all your screams out and then disappear.

Everyone is talking about Garfield! There are dozens of us!

Hey folks, as news of Watson's demise spreads, please don't set aside his weighty legacy of misogyny and racism. He was truly among the worst of us. www.vox.com/2019/1/15/18...

THE GARFIELD ASSASSINATION MINISERIES IS OUT!!! First episode is so good! I'm so excited for this incredibly niche piece of entertainment!

this morning, ICE went into a Spanish language immersion daycare and took a teacher from the building in front of screaming and crying kids and parents at dropoff and the daycare had to shut down for the day (near Lane Tech, where they were yesterday). Really hoping today's "theme" is not "daycare."

New map of the cool parts of NYC just dropped.

Zohan holding literal baby kissing events and it's revolutionary. Why is nobody else running on "excuses to stand next to babies" platform.

It's better if you just go to the link, scroll down to the timeline, and start clicking through.

Just disgusting.

I looked it up and lol: "Lincoln himself recognized these coincidences. He is said to have refused a later presidential invitation with the comment, "No, I'm not going, and they'd better not ask me, because there is a certain fatality about presidential functions when I am present."" - Wikipedia

Also, Lincoln hired the doctor that gave Garfield the infection that killed him! (spoilers?) What could have been in his head when he saw McKinley get shot? This would make anyone go slightly insane!

Reading a book about the assassination of Garfield and HOLY MOLY what a crazy story. Also apparently Robert Todd Lincoln was present at all three 19th cent assassinations? The first is a tragedy, two a coincidence, but by #3 you've gotta start wondering if it's you, right?

I really appreciate Sliwa's approach "I'm not gonna win but your definitely gonna loose" attitude

CUNY is the nation’s largest urban public university system and an engine of social mobility for the city's working class. But like so many of our public institutions, Andrew Cuomo subject it to years of disinvestment and neglect as Governor. That record cannot be forgotten.

Today I will be celebrating BOTH holidays by honoring our Native American neighbors and expressing gratitude my shared ethnic groups from Europe were able to achieve enough in this country that I don't have to be represented by the likes of Columbus. Go Jews! Yay Irish?

dig this home featured in the new architectural digest. it's a 1906 tudor in pasadena, originally built as a horse stable for a large estate and now converted into a home.

That's my rep!

it's so funny that Greenblatt bent over backwards to these people and annihilated his organization's credibility with anyone left of center to get absolutely nothing from the right

So good

Dear lord he's everywhere

Imagine your new boss calls you into a meeting to call you fat, sloppy, and stupid but also your job is running the world's largest military. I feel a lot better about the prospect of Trump trying a third term.

If they were real, wouldn’t the bullets say “fuck ice”’

Oh no, even my focus bean is off task this morning. Somebody tell @hankgreen.bsky.social my bean needs a bean.

Children's shows really illustrate how unimaginative adult TV is. "It's a show about an autistic Racoon who loves collecting things" is such a better premise than "It a doctor/cop/criminal who gets sad often"

every day we stray further from the light

Glad to see JK continue her traditions on The Other Site of picking on accounts with less than 200 followers and being weirdly anti-Semitic adjacent

Some personal news: I've been fired from the Washington Post in the aftermath of the Charlie Kirk shooting. Thread incoming. substack.com/@karenattiah...

love to see it from philly

For the love of God if you're going to post kink on bluesky you have to use words! I can't block things that aren't labeled!

I had a twelve year old boy in my camp last year that was saying things that showed early radicalization. I called his mom when he made two girls cry. Her response was "he just watches YouTube" and left a comment on our survey that we shouldn't have called her.

"I think it's worth it. I think it's worth to have a cost of, unfortunately, some gun deaths every single year so that we can have the Second Amendment to protect our other God-given rights." Thoughts and prayers then 🤷🏻‍♀️

Amazing read

Many readers now think of Margaret Wise Brown titles like “The Runaway Bunny” as tranquil introductions to storytelling. But the books, like their author, were radical for their time.

Me reading Midnight In the Garden of Good and Evil: So the whole book is just locals volunteering crazy stories and gossip to a New Yorker? My cab driver from the Savannah airport: So the guy asks me to drive him to his mansion bc he lost the keys to his yacht & he did cocaine, nice guy. Me: oh.

Moomins are having a moment online. Cuteness is surely a driving factor—but so, too, is the sense that they offer an escape from the many anxieties of modern life.

My husband makes fun of me for wanting to eat CB on road trips and I thought that it made me a little fanatical 😬

The great things about having beef with the state of Oklahoma is they keep giving you fresh reasons to remind people how much you beef with Oklahoma.
