my hot take is that this is the actual america 250. just a ton of different people coming together, showing people what makes America weird and fun. people being welcoming. and yeah there’s some bullshit too, which is also very true to America! but the good and community far outweighs it rn.

I don’t know if I’ve ever been so invested and stressed about a game where I’m not a fan of either team.

So anything doing anything interesting for the next ~11 minutes?

This game is on meth

Holy shit this match is fucking bonkers

Yes sir gimme 45 more minutes of that shit

Not for nothing but I think Universal CityWalk should be scrutinizing this wooden horse that arrived right after they beefed up their security protocols.

It’s wild to me that in 2026 with as ubiquitous as the internet is, that people still confidently believe social media accounts are run by interns.

I love seeing people being like “I can’t believe Supergirl changed the ending from the comic” as it spent the previous parts of its runtime being so so loyal to the book.

Life tenure, partisan voting blocs, atrophy of congressional oversight, and the sickening culture of sycophancy that dominates constitutional law mean that SCOTUS isn't simply a court of final appeal, it treats itself as the final custodian of society with the ability to dictate to everyone else.

Here’s the thing…

I've got an essay coming up in July's gorgeous issue of Uncanny: "Doctor Who in an Exciting Adventure with AI Slop, 1969 AD." file770.com/uncanny-maga...

Really dreading these upcoming SCOTUS decisions. I assume the anti-trans side will win. At this point, I just hope the rulings end up being narrow enough to not unravel other aspects of trans life.

I don’t think you’re supposed to talk about this.

Weird framing w tons of negative space for a pic of one guy.

No one has more optimism in the state of the professional media blogger ecosystem than the publicists who send me press releases even though I haven’t written for an outlet that would cover their project for several years.

It would’ve been impossible to contain the scope of Woman of Tomorrow into a single film, and objectively I understand that. But while I had a lot of fun with Supergirl I am baffled by a lot of the changes made to what’s a truly excellent comic story.

hey! @nicoleamaines.bsky.social liked JUST ANOTHER SUMMER, maybe you will too! A queer trans YA romcom graphic novel, out Aug 4 from @maverickogn.bsky.social @madcavestudios.com! Pre-orders open now! tinyurl.com/JASvol1

Name a movie that flipped at the box office but is actually great #FilmSky

I know as a resident of mamdanistan I'm supposed to have pledged fealty to like his dimples or something, but the only thing I really fucking care about is his policies.

“It is not just the incompetence arising from a personalist regime that is galling; it is the demand to ignore the obvious evidence of failure … They use the resources of the federal government to leverage propaganda and threats.”

“All politicians like to shift blame when they can. But Trump is in a league of his own, frequently relying on conspiracy theories to turn ordinary people into villains.”

"why did people hate starmer so much?" people ask of a man whose very instructive and clear nickname was sir queer harmer

There is, without question, security video available and they would, without question, have put out security video of an Antifa super-soldier dragging a box cutter along the surface of the Reflecting Pool if they had it. This is nonsense and the White House press corps should, again, be ashamed.

I’m an author and I don’t use AI and every author I know hates AI.

A really weird thing about doing something nerdy in a mixed public space like a pride event is the number of people who will ask you what you’re doing then immediately be dismissive about it.

Those toxic fumes you’re smelling all over LA today are the discarded Spencer Pratt votes

The most dangerous thing about AI is not that the machines might one day think. It is that we are being trained, by men with enormous financial gains riding on our acquiescence, to stop thinking for ourselves.

When I was assaulted on the way to Dyke Day LA in 2024, folks of a certain acronym posted comments on an article about it implying as a transfem I had no right going to that event in the first place. Every year I take glee in seeing how much ground they’ve lost on that particular point.

Don't you think he looks tired

It’s been a rough few weeks health wise with a bacterial infection followed by a bout of food poisoning but your girl is here, she’s queer, and she’s excited to enjoy #DykeDayLA

If I had the power to pitch a new showrunner for Doctor Who, it would be the duo of Kate Herron and Briony Redman. They wrote one of the best, most Who-y episodes of the Gatwa run, and Herron has the Loki cred to show she can run a major franchise show.

It's not often that a living man gets such a vivid preview of how he will be mourned.

Looking at the illustrations Alice and Martin Provensen did for the Iliad and the Odyssey in 1956 and taking pleasure in noting how diverse they made that world. Everyone bitching about the new movie’s casting is more racist than a children’s book publicist in *1956*

elon musk becoming a trillionaire the same day the DOJ approves the paramount/warner brothers merger is too much. only one sign of the apocalypse per day, thanks.

Also ALSO if, you like Doctor Who AND you have an interest in Compton's, check out my friend @rileysilverman.bsky.social 's story, "Dark Watchers of California," on this volume of @bigfinish.bsky.social Short Trips, which happens to be on sale right now (the whole collection is great):

Mine is literally that they give up on trying to make it flashy and high budget. Lean into practical sets and costumes that look like the old show, and go back to 30 minute episodes that string short serials together like classic. Make it a cheaper show that can do lots of episodes.

I for one can't wait for that Doctor Who, Star Trek, Stargate crossover we're going to get any day now.

mike johnson is legitimately in the running for single worst speaker in the history of the house

I just find it especially frustrating to see vote cheating accusations from people who just publicly gerrymandered all their controlled states to oblivion.

this is especially glaring given the fact that trump called CBS “crooked” just this morning

When you run for LA mayor but you’ve never voted for LA mayor before.

Yesterday I was behind a van with Woody, Jesse, and a few superheroes and random toys sloppily attached to the rear doors. A few cars behind me in my rear view was a car with a stuffy bear tied to its grill. So obviously I was in the middle of an intense Toy Story chase in freeze mode

They’re in a messy situationship with 5

My dear friend Erika Ensign who isn't on BlueSky is the DM for this and she's amazing. And Waterdeep: Dragon Heist is such a fun campaign. Check it out!

Oh, hey. 🩸⏰😈⚔️
