I'm kinda sad people didn't watch this one as much as I was hoping, so I'm reposting it. It's about understanding that art isn't 1:1 with real-life, and how sometimes we use art from places we're not from to reinforce our own biases about it. youtu.be/BmAsk09qe50

Been playing Midnight Suns and finding the gameplay to be just fun enough to keep going. A party limit of 3 in a superhero team up game is pretty lame. Story is broadly fine, so far. It's funny how much I don't like Deadpool'a voice acting...

The camera was so unbelievably ass in the first game that I never finished it (and subsequently have not played any of the others).

Got a notification from a medieval copyright lawyer

Jared Polis sucks so fucking much.

ken paxton is an astonishingly evil person

This works because people are willing to believe the worst about people without housing and people who use drugs without question.

Opening a lucrative PR firm where for $100k I will hand my wealthy clients a note that says “stop commenting for stories like this”

Finally giving Bent Knee a proper listen. So far, digging everything that isn't on Frosting.

We lost Douglas Adams 25 years ago today. This has made a lot of people very sad and has been widely regarded as a bad move.

WE DON'T NEED PETROLEUM-BASED PLASTICS ANYMORE! "The [bamboo plastic] outperforms most commercial plastics and bioplastics in mechanical and thermo-mechanical metrics while maintaining full biodegradability in soil within 50 days and closed-loop recyclability with 90% retained strength."

great news, this order arrived and it was missing 1 of the 2 shirts I ordered. shorted 50% of the plain black t-shirts I paid for.

A wonderful sentence from this story, describing the video of the man who threw a rock at a seal for no reason getting beat up by a local: "Meanwhile, an unidentified gentleman begins wailing on him."

I know she is in that moldy-ass house right now crying screaming throwing up ripping her hair out about this and I'm really enjoying imagining it

Nick Fuentes called Alex Pretti a “race traitor” for opposing ICE. I argue that sentiment is actually widespread on the MAGA right. My latest for @liberalcurrents.com www.liberalcurrents.com/after-alex-p...

my very favorite Richard Dawkins headline of all time remains “British scientists don't like Richard Dawkins, finds study that didn't even ask questions about Richard Dawkins”

It is May Day, a day for workers and solidarity. I usually do a fundraiser but not this year because I am under federal investigation for being too unbutterable and I don’t want the feds in your money

As a former pack-a-day smoker, do not bring back indoor smoking. When I smoked I had no idea how bad it was to smoke around people who weren’t also smoking. Like on the STREET it sucks. Don’t do this to other people

Oh wow really

My dad informs me that the great classical pianist Ruth Slenczynska has passed away at 101.

New comic is up. Here are my favorite bits. www.webtoons.com/en/canvas/cr...

I miss when Metric songs had guitar in them.

It’s been a real banner year for “that guy who gives off those vibes? Yes it turns out it was completely correct”

The Texas legislature rammed through a gerrymandering bill at the request of Trump. Virginia actually voted in favor of redistricting to counterbalance what Texas and other Republican-controlled states have done. Yet only one is considered a "power grab." Oligarch-owned media in a nutshell.

Bird nests made from anti-bird spikes?! 🤯 Hi, I'm a nest researcher 👋 and new here on BlueSky, sharing the craziest #bird nests I've ever found. 👀 Today, I’m sharing my discovery of rebellious birds that build nests out of anti-bird spikes. And honestly, it's like telling a joke... A thread. 🧵

The problem is libs don’t know how to exist without the feeling of moral superiority for having done nothing at all

This is fucking weird. Stop being a creepy little weirdo like JD Vance.

“Jorts is an 18 lb neutered male domestic short hair. Evaluated for extensive evening screaming. In good health; behavioral. Very affectionate. Vet enjoys visiting for fun”

Congratulations on a job well done, bike guy

The only good guys in any of this are the Iranian civilians getting murdered

Sorry I can’t help clean up right now I’m actually super busy

These Royals uniforms are the greatest city connects in history.

My company that makes extras of the less-common gas price numerals (4s through 8s) is having its best year ever. We're about to roll out a "10" placard that fits in a single column. Thank you Mr. President!

i’m not being mean or anything like congrats to everyone but i met one of these women and how poor and ruined her life was after she freshly fled in her car. her nerves were shot. she’s one of the people that made this possible, and she’s forgotten and unheard from

Oh yeah definitely the one thing sci fi and fantasy has been missing is the male gaze

Deals are my art form. Some people get their kicks in different ways, but for me it's always been doing beautiful deals.

Did you hear the story of the one man $1.8 billion business built by AI as portrayed in the @nytimes.com? Turns out basically every aspect of that story is bullshit and the story should be retracted.

"Schumer takes no action" will be on his tombstone

I largely agree with this, but you do need to be willing to go through on the threat if an agreement that's satisfactory for the workers in question can't be reached

I think a lot of Bluesky users are in the demographic of “people who simply will stop using social media entirely if all the text-based social platforms that aren’t run by unrepentant Nazis (like this one) go away,” myself very much included

Saw a random old post listing a band someone had seen live for every letter of the alphabet. Let's see how this shakes out. Aether Realm Bad Religion CAKE Days of the New Eikthyrnir Fuel Gin Blossoms H Islands Jethro Tull Korpiklaani Live Mastodon Nightwish Oasis Protest the Hero Q R.E.M. Spoon

1. "Here's an extreme idea. We're platforming it, so that people can watch out." 2. "This idea is gaining traction. We're publishing an op-ed in favour, for balance." 3. "This idea is popular now. Why does the left refuse to consider it?"

Coming off a loss in IL primaries, Kat Abughazaleh launches a new effort “merging mutual aid, political action, and apolitical events.” @jesswash.bsky.social covered her campaign’s mutual aid program here: theintercept.com/2025/12/26/k...

One of my wrestling hot takes is that Chris Jericho peaked in WCW in the late 90's. From an in ring perspective, that's actually a pretty cool take, but I'd say his character work got lazier the older he got.

10 years ago, Bernie Sanders warned America of the unintended consequences that could emerge from a regime change war with Iran. Watch.

Two young boys were locked up inside ICE's notorious detention center in Texas. Then Ms. Rachel shared their stories.
