i slide a note across the desk to elon musk. it says "THE ROBOTS ARE TRANS." he reads in silence before crumpling the note and punching a hole in the drywall

Acorn Canada's breakdown of Doug Ford's landlord-friendly legislation to gut protections for renters "They would make it easier for landlords to kick people out, harder for tenants to fight back, and make housing even more expensive" From @acorncanada.bsky.social:

✨New Codex Compliant✨ This time we're taking a look at the very first 40k expansion book. It's kinda weird and goofy. We love it. Featuring @longfang.bsky.social youtu.be/-IjCAuRSubM

This was my favorite sign from #Portland #NoKings. #putabirdonit

Saw this at Toronto After Dark Film Festival back in 2013 and really loved it. Watched it a couple times since, and the song still creeps back into my head every once in a while.

there’s a subset of people who, if you point out something bad happening now, will basically reply “it was always like this and anyone who disagrees is just privileged.” it parades as savvy but nine times out of ten it’s just an ahistorical oversimplification.

You can't logic your way out of being burnt out. Unless you're me. Who should be able to do it and it's a personal failing that I can't

Finding out that Jared Leto kept doing his method acting shit and insisted on staying in character on the set of Tron Ares and would only answer to the name of Ares is so funny, like making a big ass douche of yourself for the third Tron movie where you play “computer program that gains feelings”

By popular request, the ending of the Texas Chainsaw Massacre rescored with Meredith Wilson's "Chicken Fat."

We have known for a long time that guy with spiky hair, girl with purple hair and glasses and a frog is the ideal group for cataclysmic times.

Fascism relies on you finding earnest enjoyment of things cringe, it relies on you being ironically detached, it relies on you suppressing that bit of you that is unafraid.

Today I'm doing a talk about Women and the (early) Gothic and it might be time for a list! So here are ten early women writers of the Gothic to give an idea of the range of things that women were creating in the period!

This takes awhile to get going but it’s worth watching the whole thing

I like how the news will be like “while the President claiming Portland was ruled by a giant skeleton named Mr Nibbles is not strictly true, it does speak to the anxiety of many Americans”

I have letter to the editor this week in our local paper. Our community is, once again, facing a developer who wants to turn public, protected coastal land into a golf course. We've been here before. This time, it's shadier. And God knows it was shady last time. www.invernessoran.ca/top-story/co...

I see pieces like this a lot, often w/ a spin of lamenting cultural degeneration, but reading is a LABOR issue, it’s declined because so many people are working overtime or two jobs & employers expect after hours work. France has Earth’s highest reading rate b/c long lunch breaks & labor protections

Yo someone call Claire's kids and tell 'em to come get their mom off Facebook

It's #bandcampfriday again! Buy some music you can actually keep, and give the artists all of the profits of the sale!

Social anxiety is a hell of a drug in general, but getting scared that the staff at your favourite restaurant or coffee shop will realise you're an autistic weirdo who eats the same thing every day is especially wrongheaded. Food service people LOVE autistic weirdos who eat the same thing every day.

INSULINDIAN PHASMID - Few of us can begin to imagine the horror of you -- with all of creation reflected in your forebrain. It must be like the highest of hells, a kaleidoscope of fire and writhing glass. Eternal damnation.

Not defending the pro-AI trans girl in tech contingent, but I do think there are plenty of cis people to clown on without opening up even the most irritating and politically absurd dolls up to harassment.

Does anyone have any good home remedies for treating the aching void inside the dark hearts of men

That we continue to persist at all is a testament to our faith in one another.

1993 beaky marine in trans pride colors ! A very fun mini to paint, surprisingly full of interesting details for such an old mini (the backpack tubes are bullshit to paint though :') That mini will be up for auction/raffle to help with @deeboom.bsky.social funraiser. chuffed.org/project/1312...

THE MEME IS REAL

This was revealing. Worth reading. The basic demand is that Coates spend less time thinking/writing his true feelings and more time playing political strategist. Klein asks him over and over him to do Dem strategy; he says no, over and over. www.nytimes.com/2025/09/28/o...

It's good to see that Zach Woods has only become more powerful and based with time.

SIMPLY HAVING A

The Rocky Horror Picture Show opened on US screens 50 years ago today. Initially a major box office bomb, cult cinema outsiders and queer audiences quickly took up the film’s mantle and turned it into a unique and exciting way of engaging with the movies. Remember kids, don’t dream it—be it!!

Dropping tomorrow at 10am PST, @livingtombstone.bsky.social is dropping a video collab between a bunch of amazing indie animators and starring... da Dog.... www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jxgq...

BEING PAID,—what will compare with it?
