When Alysa Liu says she loves your Alysa Liu shirt (shoutout Wasteland Society!) #SOI26

Your next hit ice dance team look at this SYNC (Stars on Ice Rochester Stargazer) ⛸️

When I first started looking into this I did NOT think it would be this wild of a ride. I just wanted to know who decided to put up an AI generated mural. www.coyotemedia.org/how-did-an-a...

The figure skater who reported that she was raped by Nikolaj Sørensen has come forward in a statement and an interview. She is Ashley Foy, an ice dancer who now coaches. Gift link:

I stand with Ashley Foy and am so proud of her courage to speak publicly about what she faced. Abuse has NO place in skating and structual change IS necessary to get the rotten core (not just bad apples) out of figure skating. www.cbc.ca/sports/olymp...

Just some absolute carnage for skate Canada

"I’ve reviewed a lot of tech products over the past decade and a half, and all I can tell you is that it is a failure when you ask people to adapt to computers. Computers should adapt to people." @reckless.bsky.social on the mark as usual.

Yet again I remind everyone (as Elizabeth does in her very next tweet) that "foreigners are corrupting our pure blood with weakness & disease" is Fascism 101. Not some variant, not some metaphorically similar thing, not some echo -- the thing itself.

Nothing has killed more soldiers in the history of humanity than disease. While worst is a more complicated question Hegseth is absolutely the dumbest secretary of defense the United States has ever had. bsky.app/profile/ones...

I KNEW IT BUT I'M STILL SAD

I'd like to thank my fans, I won a Rosie award!!! ⛸️

But also does this mean Starr and Luke's tryout went well?? If Liv wants to retire PLEASE him over Balazs given his track record with partners

STOP PLAYING WITH MY EMOTIONS EVERYONE I CAN'T TAKE IT

In denial in denial in deeeeeniiiiiiaaaal

esquire decided to interview an AI homunculus of a one piece star instead of the real guy. this might be my breaking point

Today, MSF is going public with something we've been fighting behind closed doors for months: Gilead will not sell us their new HIV drug, lenacapavir. The sticking point isn't even price, they just refuse to sell. Open letter linked + explainer 🧵1/ www.doctorswithoutborders.org/latest/gilea...

Děkuju, Praho! 🙏🇨🇿 It's time to say goodbye....😢 #WorldFigure | #FigureSkating

Es ist wieder soweit und gilt auch heute. Das letzte Mal in dieser Saison.

LIA TRENNT MEDAL AHHHH! #WorldFigure

now we know what we need georgia to do.............

THEY ARE PERFECT AND THE GAME DONE CHANGED

Annika Hocke/Robert Kunkel GER 3Tw3, sbs3S(H q,hand), sbs2A1A2A, thr3F(ftdwn), thr3Lo death spiral 2, pair spin 3, all lifts 4 TES 66.57, PCS 62.19, FS 128.76, TOTAL 194.11 into 1st - no deduction for that headbanger, not so illegal bit.ly/3NOisxA #WorldFigure

HEAD BANGER AT WORLDS I REPEAT HEAD BANGER AT WORLDS

he was even faster than i've seen him for a white and those crossrolls into the 3A are still the cuntiest thing ever

axel paulsen no one even knows where you are buried iirc but motherfucker i will FIND you

"Who would be the Dr. Robby of a New England liberal arts school or an urban community college or a state flagship in the process of gutting its arts programs or an underfunded branch campus about to be shut down? It’s hard, it turns out, to even imagine."

the men's FS cut this year is BRUTAL

All time Decoder sequence here. Dollars, baby. I love 'em. www.theverge.com/podcast/8987...

Google's AI changed another one of our headlines from "Microsoft is rebranding Copilot in the most Microsoft way possible" to "Copilot Changes: Marketing Teams at it Again." This is particularly offensive as The Verge Does Not Capitalize Every Word in Headlines. www.theverge.com/tech/896490/...

. @lopatto.bsky.social had it right www.theverge.com/business/793...

Google is now screwing with the 10 blue links in traditional search and rewriting headlines - including ours - to be the worst kind of slop. This sucks so bad www.theverge.com/tech/896490/...

if i ran a nonprofit news org that depended on donations from a very anti-AI and pro-labor donor base, i would elect NOT to stick it to the employer union, especially over an issue like basic AI guardrails

this is completely insane: since when is it acceptable for a tech company to rewrite news outlets' headlines without their consent? especially at a time when audiences are sensitive to how stories are framed in headlines? (ie Israel/Palestine, the Trump admin, ICE) www.theverge.com/tech/896490/...

feels kinda max-aarony for chan/howe, and with the rumors about liu/nagy, and danny being 80 years old, do we have uhhhh any pairs with citizenship left standing

Someone kindly reposted this today for some reason, so I'm reminding you all to play Consume Me, one of my top three games of last year – not least since it's apparently on sale for a stupidly low price. store.steampowered.com/app/2359120/...

one of my favorite memories of Charlie is him growling at a hay bale because it was blowing a little in the wind, starting to walk away, and then looking over his shoulder to make sure it wasn't sneaking up on him

meta can’t just tell it’s own ai to vibe code a reddit clone?

a number of thoughts here: - oh my god he admit it - what happened to the reactionary group chat?! - commonality here is that none of these inputs will offend their sensibilities by challenging their worldview one bit - i expect a full pivot from this class to 'filter bubbles are great, actually'

🇺🇸 Bradie Tennell (who was named as first alternate) confirms she was not passed over for the #WorldFigure spot, but that she chose to give it up.

Author @johngreensbluesky.bsky.social is back on Capitol Hill today with @tbfighters.org, @pih.org and other advocates pushing for more funding — again — to fight tuberculosis.

Last time we did this, it worked Global health funding was largely maintained, or in some cases fully restored, in the fiscal year 2026 This year #tbhillday had more people and more meetings, maybe we can keep this trend alive.

Hope everyone is HYPED for Hill Day!! TBFighters and our advocacy partners are headed to DC for OVER 250 meetings with Congressional offices. We're so excited to see everyone and make strides in the fight against #Tuberculosis

Since my Alysa Liu trans flag video appears to be getting attention again (so far all good), here’s the post-nationals picture of the signed flag, along with the article from nationals where I talked about it. Link: www.thetelegraph.com/sports/artic...

A lot of people are sharing that clip of the US men's hockey team laughing about the women's team with Trump/Kash Patel. A couple weeks ago, I wrote about how, despite the Heated Rivalry effect, hockey culture still sucks: www.wired.com/story/winter...

Paul Farmer dedicated his time & talent to furthering the field of global health & ensuring the right to health care for all. Through his words & actions, he left behind countless lessons that continue to guide us today. Check out the 9 initiatives keeping his legacy alive: https://bit.ly/4b1d0QF

The NY Mag cover story IS leagues better than any other article that has tried to reckon with the Heated Rivalry phenomenon and what it’s all born out of, but can journos collectively agree to stop linking to fanfiction? Maybe???

oh deanna my darling

“Great Man” theories of history may have been wrong but “That F*ing Guy” theory looks increasingly plausible.
