Fat Bear Week!

General strike!

no notes

People are too busy obsessing about the Autocrat's Playbook. We need to study and be inspired by the many popular movements which drove tyrants out of power. Our autocrats are fucking delusional idiots, and they will crumble once we get on our feet and stare them down.

Damn, this is funny. Also, the comparison being used is 10/10.

Cleaning my photos folder and rediscovered this clip of AI app DeepSeek. A user saw some odd behaviour and posted this clip shortly after the app's release. Pretty good example of what will become of the US information landscape if conservative elites keep buying media companies.

Happy Earth, Wind, and Fire day to all who celebrate! 🌎💨🔥

Let's see Brendan Carr stop Johnny Carson from joking about Trump.

Looking forward to subscriber cancellation numbers for Disney+.

Ah, yes, more trustworthy numbers (right?) from Trump, like his claim 300 million people died from drugs. He's just such an idiot; makes Cobra Commander look like Napoleon.

General strike!

@reckless.bsky.social Thank you for coming back early to do the Vergecast's Brendan Carr is a Dummy segment. As a token of appreciation, please accept this short video of your fave kind of speaker I crossed paths with tonight.

Chonky Bears are back, baby!

Well done 🫡

Brad Lander is the kind of guy who would figure out Batman's identity but not tell anyone for the greater good. We need more people like him in government.

I'm going to keep saying this until we see a new actor take on Blade: just have Wesley Snipes do a fourth film in the meantime. He was solid in Deadpool and Wolverine. If not a film at least bring him back for Doomsday/Secret Wars (and make sure he has Punisher's bazooka).

Totally random rant comment: If Apple is such a great tech company why can it not display images in Messages correctly? Why!? Just show the full image and stop cropping it so you have to press on it to show the full thing. Argh! /rant

There's a lot of awful stuff going on, but beneath it all is this very point about where we are. When we abandon a shared reality, and known truths, it causes society to fracture beyond repair.

Melania and that stupid hat; when have to go to the UK but need to defend the Earth realm in Moral Kombat immediately afterward.

Can't #CancelDisney+ and/or #CancelHulu? Then call your local Nexstar affiliate(s) to let them know that you will not be watching their channel until their parent company stops enabling fascism— pls do this for all your local Nexstar affiliates even non-ABC channels (see link) #IStandWithKimmel

lol at everyone teaching first amendment law

Alright, you've all endured me ranting for the last two hours, have a timeline cleanse with this void of joy.

Damn this Kimmel thing has me furious. He was my guy when it came to eviscerating Trump, and rightly so. Kimmel never pulled punches and always punched up, not down. I need a printer to destroy to curb my rage.

The only way to make them listen is through our combined purchasing power. Even if you don't do it permanently at least cancel for a month just to send a message on this matter alone. Show them red next quarter at a minimum. #CancelDisney+ #CancelHulu #ForJimmy

WGA Statement on ABC’s Decision to Pull Jimmy Kimmel Live!

Kash Patel is an asshole. Did you get that whoever is monitoring my posts?

Fantistic article on Redford, check it out!

Can confirm.

RIP to a titan in the film industry. Absolute legend.

Was watching Halt and Catch Fire when a subtitle popped up that seemed like the very inception of so many problems the last several days.

As journalists are purged from mainstream outlets during Kirkpocalypse consider supporting the independent reporters that continue to bring us the facts we need to build a functional society.

Take note of this, it will only get worse as media ownership changes hands (e.g. If TikTok gets acquired by Larry Ellison in some fashion).

For the #FarCry fans.

Never forget.

Everything Ruffalo says here is accurate. It all started with Citizens United.

Hackers of the world unite!

Time for another round of massive Washington Post sub cancellations.

Sharing for awareness because this is interesting.

We boiled to death on this planet for AI and all we got are email summaries.

Says the man who brought you the currently thriving metaverse. Oh, wait, I'm getting an update on the state of the metaverse...

I understand that substack has made leaving the walled garden extremely difficult* but STARTING a substack in 2025 as a 'progressive' or even 'leftist' journalist or creator is a wild choice. *I still have a lot of questions about why people choose to stay!

Great, another journalist joins the trash heap that is substack. This is becoming such a problem we need a starter pack that blocks journalists using substack. okay maybe that's a bit much but setting up shop on substack these days as a reporter is like buying a cybertruck.

Timeline cleanse at the dog park! Thanks, Brett.

Happy Birthday, Rory! 🎂

It is very odd to see Senator's share pictures of Kirk's Casket online. There's this unnerving Black Mirror sense of watching a content creator become content themselves. Just a random thought; make of it what you will.

Watched Weapons and I have no idea how this film made so much money. Interesting premise with an ending that was a crash landing. I really wanted to like this one but the trailer was better than the film itself.

"Involuntary lethal injection.." So, like. a bullet? Kilmeade is such an asshole.
