Hey, y'all, I hate to burst your bubbles, but that "hooded crow snowboarding with green plate" video is generative AI Here's the _REAL_ video of a snowboarding crow from 13+ years ago the fake is stealing from www.youtube.com/watch?v=tUBM...

Mine has GOT to be seeing "Hundreds of Beavers" in the State Theatre in Ann Arbor, Michigan. Absolutely packed house with all of the eclectic old-movie weirdos and new generation bohemians in their early twenties. We all laughed so hard we were sore for days afterwards, but it was so worth it.

Our gorgeous #WakeUpDeadMan end credit portraits, painted from life by Isabella Watling. We’re still in theaters, see my pinned post for a theater finder!

A male rock ptarmigan (Lagopus muta) in winter plumage. Ptarmigan is from Gaelic 'tarmachan' meaning "croaker". The p- was added when people mistakenly assumed it was a Greek word. A bird forever warning people: "A werewolf!" (just in case of werewolves).

I'll be doing a memorial for that brave camera.

I find it deeply disturbing at how many people are positively *eager* to kill their fellow human beings.

Now that we're in December, it's hard to avoid the constant flood of "seasonal" music everywhere you go. For my own sanity, I make sure my car is playing stuff like this. It sounds festive, but is the usual overplayed stuff. #music #brass #renaissance #festive www.youtube.com/watch?v=X7Xn...

This cracks me up. Ford *could* be offering paid apprenticeships. Fund trade schools and offer scholarships for students to attend said schools. But nope. They whine to the press and expect someone else will fix it for them. www.jalopnik.com/2039921/ford...

The authors of this "report" should be looked at very carefully. Also, who funded the "research" and publication? The whole thing is clearly mendacious and intended to fuel a false narrative.

My neighborhood looks quite wintery, now! #photography #snow #winter

Ok, so we're this close 🤏🏻 to hit an important milestone of views on Tapas, so if you feel like reading (or re-reading) a really funny webcomic *for free*, now would be an amazing time! Come meet a trio of bi disasters navigating the chaos of a quest to find the source of magic, on Tapas!

What a great headline

I spoke to @adashtra.bsky.social about a topic close to my heart.

To me this will always be the definitive version of "Tron". #movie #music www.youtube.com/watch?v=P5Rc...

I still love this version: www.youtube.com/watch?v=Kouj...

It's depressing to see how many people don't seem to care that they were breaking the law and hurting others, even killing in some instances, but DO care about having to face the consequences of said actions.

Massive shoutout out to whoever handles the Royal Canadian Air Force’s social media account. They responded to every single comment on their already very solid Trans Day of Remembrance post and they responded like this…

I still love this movie. www.youtube.com/watch?v=MAgn...

Who else does this kind of stuff? China. North Korea. Who used to do this kind of thing? The Soviet Union. So what we have is the U.S. Border KGB. #tyranny #KGB #LibertyIsDying abcnews.go.com/Technology/w...

This just might be the cutest comic ever. #webcomic #comic #art www.webtoons.com/en/canvas/cr...

this gets reposted a lot, but truth be told trump has never really wriggled out of anything. what actually happens is that other people passively or actively support him

I've posted about this comic before, but really READ IT. It's got a nice unique twist on fantasy settings, great characters, and the story is starting to really heat up. Every day a new episode is out I am instantly happier.

I Think I'm Good By Myself, Actually A comic about partner-free life with posi vibes and aroace tone! PDF available on Itch: annikcomics.itch.io/i-think-im-g... In Finnish: annikcomics.itch.io/oikeastaan-e...

Super Cute!
