I get that the news cycle is packed right now, but I just heard from a colleague at the Smithsonian that this is fully a GIANT SQUID BEING EATEN BY A SPERM WHALE and it’s possibly the first ever confirmed video according to a friend at NOAA 10 YEAR OLD ME IS LOSING HER MIND (a thread 🧵)

Stop a moment, and read... • Kenneth C. Steven •

Schrödinger's Shooter exists as both a deranged leftist motivated by dangerous rhetoric AND as a misunderstood troubled youth who needed Jesus until the waveform collapses

Just ordered my copy.

From 1903 to 1907 Augustus Jansson produced more than 30 striking adverts for the Queen City Printing Ink Company, including the wonderful Ink Beasts Parade series, with its "Magenta Ponies" and "Orange-Yellow Ibexiaticus". More here: publicdomainreview.org/collection/a...

I don't want to start a thing so I'll just say that there will never be a good argument for privatizing USPS. That would be like privatizing libraries. The aim of services isn't to be run for profit, they are for serving the greater good, which USPS has been extremely successful at.

My neighbor in Orlando mentioned this EXACT concern to me last night!

Roland couldn't wait to go to school. The other kids were gonna be totes jelly of his sweet-ass new kicks.

In 1775, we fought a revolution over taxes. In 2025, we just renamed them tariffs.

*ezra klein guy voice* The problem with the left is that they've lost the willingness to speak reasonably with their opponents, such as this guy I interviewed recently who easily conned me into supporting eugenics

ME: I don't think of hell as like. a real place? with fires, and devils with pitchforks? maybe hell is just existing in the consequence of the person we have been ME: *when james dobson dies* OH HO HO some weird bird thing with a bagpipe coming out of its ass is eatin good TONIGHT

When churchyards yawn and hell itself breathes out Contagion to this world.

The biggest scandal in US public life *ought* to be that we are the richest country in history & yet our infrastructure sucks, our transportation choices suck, our cities suck, our healthcare sucks, our public administration sucks, & in dozens of little ways, our daily lives suck.

This is the first time in my entire life there hasn't been a Clinton or Bush in political office and I'm middle aged. Fuck off with this royal family political dynasty bullshit.

My son just described a Paul McCartney solo album as being “part of the Beatles Extended Universe” and I almost swerved my car into a tree.

We used to post etymologies. We still do, but we used to, too.

Here's the network centered around Marcella Law. No doubt there is much more to this story. 11/n

I know this is not a unique observation but public health was basically created to deal with the Spanish flu, and then a century later COVID hit and killed twice as many people and our response was to destroy public health

Referring to a mediocre breakfast restaurant as your culture and heritage is one of the whitest things I've ever read.

Apocalypse Now. 1979. The kinetic energy in this sequence is insane — the arrival of Kilgore. No CGI, no post production cheating. The entire backdrop is constantly *moving* — a la Akira Kurosawa. The coordination it must have taken; Coppola even cameos as a filmmaker barking directions. #filmsky

I don't know who needs to hear this, but the "NBC" part of the name was what gave MSNBC the built-in credibility as a news outlet. "My Source News Opinion World" sounds like a badly translated youtube channel.

“Henceforth, men’s eyes will be turned towards the faces not of those who are the rulers but of those who are the thinkers” —Victor HUGO, being absolutely and rather spectacularly wrong at Balzac’s funeral

Finland I owe you an apology. I wasn’t really familiar with your game 😍🥴🥵

It's like waiting to hear how a negotiation went between Hans Gruber and Ralph Wiggum. You already know. But somehow it will still be worse than you think.

Seizure medication, wheelchairs, Social Security cards, dentures, urns of ashes, work uniforms — just some of what's been thrown away during cruel, degrading, utterly counterproductive homeless sweeps. A good time to revisit this gutting @propublica.org story:
