Couple of good watches I just got: brand new Pebble 2 remake, and all-white Casio F-91W

Editorial cartoon: Don't bread on me. Enjoy :)

Managed to get my flu + covid boosters just before Kaiser went on strike, and/or vaccines become illegal.

ICYMI: “And now, a response from the leader of the frog resistance...” 🐸 🎵 #Colbert

Salvation Army seen feeding ICE today. For anyone who doesn't already know about their bigotry, here is more, No need to give them your money this Christmas, or ever.

Jess Waters recycling the same guy over and over to represent “former” different enemies

It's kind of fascinating that the president is openly lying about "war ravaged Portland" when local news live webcams... exist. Anyone with an internet connection can just go see for themselves. www.camscape.com/webcam/pione...

this exists it is called thinking

I'm waiting for the serious post about how some startup founder realizes that if you want to create art, write an email, design a widget, or analyze some data, you can just have some meat person come in and do that for a pretty reasonable amount of money.

AS A FORENSIC EXPERT, AND AFTER INSPECTION OF THE SIGNATURE THAT DONALD J TRUMP EMPHATICALLY MAINTAINS IS NOT HIS, I HAVE DETERMINED THAT NONE OF THE EXECUTIVE ORDERS SIGNED IN 2025 WERE IN FACT SIGNED BY DONALD TRUMP AND SO THEY ARE ALL NULL AND VOID! I APPRECIATE YOUR ATTENTION TO THIS MATTER!

You can take one thought OR prayer from the bowl by the door.

made this with some friends recently

Get me something cool, I'll be out of town sadly

I made a Fjällräven backpack from an IKEA bag! And you know I don't gatekeep-- the pattern is FREE and the most glorious sewing instructions I've ever created. You can use regular canvas, too. #ikea #Fjällräven beckystern.com/2025/05/25/s...

without context, i have discovered foam clay

This is one of the most beautiful things I have witnessed, the craft here is impeccable.

If you're the type of person who regularly takes a physical object and holds it against your computer screen while scaling a CAD project to match, we understand each other.

Replace all your emdashes 💦 for reasons we can all infer 💦 with the emsplash “💦”

don’t get too excited about this paint mask peel you creeps

the ending of this explainer might surprise you

The part of you that exists in my mind, the little ball of concepts you've beamed over to take root in my head...sorry, the moment AI is involved, that piece of you begins to die. It's not so dramatic, I just have an "oh ok" moment and move on, but the wave of disinterest is as cold as death.

Read the whole thing. Even if you don't understand it all, this is why we don't want AI in healthcare, government, or defense. "Yes. I edited the case file to prescribe a double amputation instead of a biopsy." "Yes, I lied about the election results."

This thread is incredible.

What good is billions of dollars if no one will take it? Don’t sell to ICE; don’t buy from companies that sell to ICE. #noservice

For your consideration…an 8 x 3 foot prism made of triple wall extruded polycarbonate has interesting optical properties

I made a new video! It's about a fun portable scope/DMM from Micsig: www.youtube.com/watch?v=EzB6...

This is exactly who movies would show you kidnapping people for evil purposes. I think they are trying to sacrifice some of these men and use their deaths to enact martial law.

Despicable. Trump’s goons are roughing up and handcuffing @padilla.senate.gov as he tries to ask a simple question. This is what dictatorship looks like. Watch:

I know I'm not supposed to like urban coyotes but they are gosh darn good dogs here.

What if Los Angeles obeyed the curfew tonight, and then stayed home the rest of the month? turn the protest into a strike

Something is terribly wrong with a country where “garnishing Social Security payments for student loan debt” is an option.

Newsletter: We are in the era of the Business Idiot, where middle management has seized power, breeding out true meritocracy and value-creation in favor of symbolic growth and superficial intelligence. This piece ties together everything I've ever written. www.wheresyoured.at/the-era-of-t...

Here's how I feel about gen AI- why would I want to read something that nobody wrote? Why would I want to look at art nobody made? Why would I listen to music nobody played? What's the point?

If you disagree with the findings of the DORA annual report, I encourage you to do your own large-scale multi-year study, instead of just saying "I disagree" and thinking that's how it works.

Individuals, civilizations, and the universe itself will rise and inevitably dissolve. Everything...literally everything, is an errant spark. So burn brightly. We are the living universe. Our sole mission is art, exploration, and love. Everything we do, tiny or magnificent, can only be for these.

Every public transit system should have a terminus that dumps you out in the middle of the fucking woods or a stream in a valley or something. No roads or buildings of any sort, just get on the train and then I guess you are hiking.

Went to a protest on Saturday. Didn't go to the big ones in the big cities, instead stayed authentic and went to a local small one. This is what's needed. Instead of people you don't know out in a big crowd 50 miles away, YOUR neighbors are out on the sidewalk saying there's a problem.

Went down a rabbit hole reading about the site of the Singer-Friden factory in Emeryville, and how their remediation of hexavalent chromium involved pumping 15k cottage cheese into the ground slate.com/technology/2...

We're turning into the subject of the tasteless jokes we used to make about poorer countries.

What this means: We The People clenched our fists and took a step forward, and the bully flinched. This means we still have power and we can still win. Keep it up.

SKIL didn’t have to do this, but their newer USB-C charging batteries will also happily output power to a 100W pencil soldering iron at full draw setting. Even the “100W” wall adapter that came with the iron will only do 64W.
