firefly is more than the actors & quirky dialogue. firefly refers to an ideal, stories about found family in space, scifi that's small stakes about people and not galaxies. we don't need firefly per se, we want stories about ppl who care about each other despite the oppression, despite the system

SACRAMENTO, Calif. (AP) — California lawmakers say they'll change name of César Chavez Day to Farmworkers Day following sexual abuse allegations.

missed this yesterday. more career experts/senior leaders leaving FDA...

this war is as stupid as it is illegal. congratulations to everyone who voted for this. I know you don’t give a shit about brown women and children dying but have fun filling your gas tanks. Going broke to own the libs

He’s never been more offended. Western Toad, Anaxyrus boreas. #herps

Ugh, if you play for Team USA, you don’t “serve” your country. You represent it.

I find the “the mean leftists were rooting against Team USA because they hate America 😠” schtick very funny as someone who remembers what their lot had to say about the USWNT when Megan Rapinoe was playing.

I love how the players and managers for basically every team in the WBC (except one) were like “we’re doing this for the people of our country” and the American team was like, “we are doing this only for the troops and beleaguered cops and ICE agents.”

Iran is going to win the Super Bowl next year

The joy and the happiness and the vibes that Venezuela brought to this tournament. It's remarkably different than what was going on over in the United States dugout. Good for Venezuela. Baseball is supposed to be fun. Teams are supposed to have deep bonds. Venezuela showed America how it's done.

V for Venezuela V for victory

baseball has two basic modes: 1. grumpy, slow-paced cotillion 2. drama avalanche where it feels like you’ve been kidnapped but in a way you enjoy for some reason

Well Team USA lost but at least they didn't have any fun the entire WBC.

They canceled his citizenship interview and he drove in the winning run to beat the US. Eugenio Suarez is a gem.

I know none of yall gaf but Venezuela beat the US at the World Baseball Classic and all the US players looked like their every last dream was crushed and all the Venezuelan players are so joyful and it’s awesome

very funny to see an athlete say jesus christ is the reason they were able to beat america

Evangelicals: we christians are so persecuted, modern culture shuns the faithful Every fucking commercial during this baseball game: WOMEN OF THE BIBLE POST APOCALYPTIC CHRISTIAN SANCTUARIES THE LIFE OF DAVID A THREE DAY BIBLE EVENT

oh no, it works a little too well

watch this space. some of the more optimistic takes on this are forgetting who runs HHS — and that many experts who could work on these issues were fired last year, just like State’s energy crisis experts

I have spent more time than I care to admit looking for dramatic shots of octopus punching fish. So, believe me when I say this is one of the best yet!

A new particle, woohoo! 🧪

wow we are arriving at the exact situation every single person imagined within one second of seeing their first robot dog

just thinking about all the americans who are now going to die of cancer because of the cuts susie wiles has helped usher through. including a lot of kids

Europeans when asked to help unblock the strait of Hormuz:

Delta swore to its employees and unions that it was not transporting deportees this way.

We went to Plymouth Plantation, where we watched 1600s-era recreationists churn butter and spin fibers on a bleak November day.

HOLY SHIT NO

how very American to win on an unearned strike.

Surprise, the WBC was just a psyop to get everyone on board with the ABS system

A big takeaway this year has to be that Sinners and One Battle After Another were big, artist driven, swings bankrolled by WB whose future is ultimately unclear. I like living in a world where people like PTA and Ryan Coogler get to make the films they want to make with those resources.

That pitch missed by 4 inches

Babe. You’re not lazy. You’re disabled. It’s not because you don’t want to do it that you don’t do it. It’s literally beyond your current ability. You don’t have the executive function for it sweetie.

Who cares about him . FIRE BIRD !!!! Eric GALE . kingfish ! Britney Howard , Saadiq and Shaboozey on ONE STAGE

It's striking how much mental health advice directed at kids and teenagers boils down to saying "you have to be okay with people treating you like you're not fully human because they're right, but it's okay because one day you WILL be human", then being genuinely surprised when it doesn't help.

The risk of death associated with childbirth is approximately 14 times higher than the risk of death from abortion." Yikes

Misty Copeland comes out of retirement to put Timothée Chalamet in his place during a live ‘Sinners’ performance at the #Oscars.

Y’all she had a HIP REPLACEMENT IN DECEMBER.

And remember, Gamergate was an op from Steve Bannon and Jeffrey fucking Epstein. So if you really think you're "anti-fascist," you should be anti Adam Baldwin. And anti Exactly This Shit.

He also voiced several of Larry Correia’s books. Correia was famously the head of the Sad Puppies, a right-wing and anti-diversity campaign that aimed to influence the results of the Hugo Awards. They are chums.

(2/2) So here's a fun hypothetical: what might D&D's third character class have looked like if that rival PC had been a different sort of goofy 70s horror movie critter? What does the hard counter to a wolfman or a Frankenstein's Monster or whatever look like when generalised into a character class?

If you're familiar with the history of TTRPGs, you've likely heard about how the proto-RPG that would become D&D initially just had fighters and wizards, and the cleric was introduced specifically to provide a mechanical hard counter to another player's vampire PC in a long-running PvP game. (1/2)

Just once I'd like to hear a player say "I'm doing this to show there's more to America than imperialist wars. I'm doing this to honor the schoolteachers and artists."

Every member of Team USA is free to quit their lucrative career playing sports and go join the military like Pat Tillman did. This is all just cosplaying eyewash. It's a game. It's entertainment. It's supposed to be fun, not joyless, humorless war.

humans make bad choices and mistakes, which is why i think the way you handle the consequences matters a lot more than the initial decision. the way platner has handled his tattoo scandal makes me doubt not just his character, but his ability to handle difficult politics in general as a senator.

So, basically Fillion wants to produce a Firefly animated series, but hasn’t sold it to any network yet and is hoping to get fans to loudly demand it. Strangely, he has the sense to make clear Whedon isn’t involved, but dumb enough to have Adam Baldwin still in the cast deadline.com/2026/03/nath...
