Meta’s rollout of AI for groups engagement is going great

@kairyssdal.bsky.social is the most refreshing voice in media.

The song titles of my EP just dropped

I'm sure I've posted about this before but iLok is the most evil dogshit product ever created and it just makes your life worse if you have to use it.

Imagine, if you will, that NASA updated its website to suggest gravity might not exist, prompting CalTech and CERN to release statements saying, "With great sadness, we can no longer recommend listening to NASA." This is what's happening in epidemiology.

living through the previously-absurd scenario of an out-of-control president looting the nation, ignoring the law, inciting violence, pardoning criminals, working with our enemies, but instead of some titanic political struggle most of society is just trying really hard to avoid mentioning it

woodstock’s manifesto

for the record, this is how the @nytimes.com covered Bloomberg, a man elected to the same office as Katie Wilson with the exact same amount of experience in public office as Katie Wilson, but whom the paper did not view with obvious contempt www.nytimes.com/2001/11/07/n...

i’ve said this before and i remain convinced it’s true, the 2028 platform that would deliver obama 08 results is “i am gonna bring the hammer down on the corrupt self-dealing politicians and their rich friends and there are no sacred cows id give a pass”

theres a whole category of newstertainment thats gotta go. and its "ask a really rich freak who is also evil and directly stealing from you what hes seen on the computer lately that has made him feel bad." the only -- ONLY -- story about this guy worth exploring is: he is getting rich spying on you

What the hell are we doing?

The river witch is selling some pretty great lip balm.

The White House is a week away from having slot machines and neon lighting.

And the sandwich guy was found Not Guilty, this fed humiliated himself on the stand for nothing lol

We evolved to sleep about 8 hours a day because the human brain simply must take a break from the news.

You couldn’t pay me to be this big of a baby on the stand. I’d beg prosecution to drop the charges. I’d refuse to testify. My dude you got in a food fight.

Hunger games ass regime

It’s honestly unhinged that garbage bags are measured in gallons. What are you gonna do, fill it with milk? Get outta here.

Did I just download dozens of 19th century illustrations of snakes from the New York Public Library's Unsplash account? Hard to say. Maybe even none of your business.

My @pantspants.bsky.social deck of cards arrived today and I already have a favorite

I think any story about Trump's autocracy should be mostly about the people and institutions who failed to stop it. This guy isn't a political genius, everything else just happens to be rotten. 'Toddler Consolidates Power In Household' is a story about incompetent parents, not shrewd maneuvering

I was today years old when I found out that Midnight Oil's "Beds are Burning" was a land acknowledgement. Respect.

Once again, the main day of Tea Party protests had about 300,000 nationwide, but saw endless coverage. The No Kings protests had about 7,000,000 nationwide, and many media outlets reacted with a yawn. No Kings was nearly 25x as big as the Tea Party but the Tea Party got 25x the attention.

The news has made up a new way to say “committing crimes”

Funding a government this corrupt and this cruel is pointless, especially when they illegally withhold funds allocated by congress for programs they don’t like.

the way Trump and his administration keep going on livestreams and tv to laugh about this, I can’t really compare it to anything political that comes to mind, only thing that comes to mind rn is a serial killer who writes letter taunting family of their victim.

Billionaires are now in the business of advocating policies that will make the vast majority’s lives tangibly worse in order to make their lives unnoticeably better. Money is an abstraction to keep score for them. But it’s food, health, and shelter for everyone else.

Tlingit artist Nicholas Galanin, “Architecture of return, escape (The British Museum)”, a deerskin map a floor plan of the British Museum and possible escape routes for various Indigenous cultural belongings held there.

Billionaires are bad with money IMO. They will spend hundreds of millions to elect a candidate on the promise to pay less in taxes. Then this loser decides to pay another nine figures to pretend to fund the troops (it's illegal and the DoD can't accept the money, besides its only $100 per troop)

Nikolaj Coster-Waldau teaching me about the environment while driving the coolest fucking gas guzzler ever made.

The sax part on Baker Street acts like it’s never heard the rest of the song. Does this part go with the verse? None of my business!

first honest thing she ever said

This is a map of Seattle

That there are any Democrats that aren't fully throwing their support behind this unbelievably popular candidate and his politics make me insane. This guy is beloved. We need more Mamdanis, not fewer.

"Trump is going to invade American cities and bulldoze the White House" would have been seen as an alarmist liberal fever dream thing to say a year ago

I need to learn not to "weigh in."

Reminder: We spent YEARS reading thousands and thousands of articles on the Tea Party and how it was a true expression of the American people's will, and it never mounted anything nearly as big as Saturday's No Kings rallies. [1/3]

I have friends everywhere

Not being even vaguely sarcastic: At some point, a journalist needs to ask Johnson “you regularly claim you have no idea what your own government is doing. If we take you at your word, how are you so poorly informed, and do you this level of ignorance should disqualify you as speaker?”

The Sound and the Fury is an annoying read

Don’t threaten me with a good time

My favorite sports thing is after a crucial win a coach will say something like “well, if you want to win you gotta get out there and play baseball.” Thanks man. Great advice.

It’s tradition that when you see the frogs, you show them respect 🫡 (Someone should do the Creed cut with the footage)

Pope Leo XIV weighed in on U.S. politics, saying that Catholic politicians must be judged on the full range of their policy positions and suggesting that the country's immigration policy is "inhuman."
