This is what democracy looks like. #NoKings

Wow! Love your creativity Ocean Beach (San Francisco)!

the whole point of mass protest is to demonstrate overwhelming opposition to the political direction, at a scale that can't be cracked down on dress comfortably and stay away from anyone inciting violence, but don't let clout chasers scare you into losing sight of how the basic concept works

@gavinnewsom.bsky.social There are probably a lot of people in CA who support your fight against fascism (like your redistricting plan), but then you do shit like this and don’t protect the ones who are most vulnerable to its policies. Super disappointing.

List of niche sins -Eating octopus -raising color contrast on photos of fall -using chatGPT to write personal missives to loved ones -texting while driving

"Among the citizens detained are nearly 20 children, including two with cancer."

Countdown to the KEEPER Launch Trailer is up on our YouTube channel if you want to get a tab ready (and there are some lovely in-game vistas you can enjoy while you wait)! The trailer and the game go live tomorrow morning (Oct 17) at 8am PT! youtu.be/CDmvkGUSWzI?...

The Supreme Court is going to gut the Voting Rights Act and help GOP gerrymander and win the 2026 election. www.nytimes.com/2025/10/15/u...

I was googling ceramic animal pitchers for reference and I found this amazing one where you pour from a demon rabbit’s brain cavity.

Just voted YES on prop 50.

RIP Drew Struzan - a man whose talent and imagination etched onto so many minds throughout the last 40+ years. His art & posters are some of the first visuals I think of when I think about cinema - an invitation to watch these stories and worlds. A massive loss 💔

This is, essentially, pornography (to me)

Product idea: combo AirTag + lip gloss.

One of the wildest issues AI creates is that it makes people who shouldn't do things they don't understand, do those exact things believing they understand.

This week’s newsletter is about eating and who you choose to do it with. “If you had dinner with a trans friend on Tuesday, and dinner with fascists on Thursday, your trans friend had dinner with a fascist on Tuesday.“ buttondown.com/monteiro/arc...

You would not believe how many stories like this have been popping up over the last ~5 years Not just full games cancelled—entire characters and plot lines removed or changed, leaving less time for making the *rest of the game better*, to try avoiding a small and malicious contingent of voices.

George Orwell’s Animal Crossing

This includes highly paid tech workers as well. Sorry—you’re a fancier cog in the machine, not a capitalist. The more people realize that, the more likely a better future for all workers can be possible.

Will I be the first to suggest the carbon offsets worked exactly as planned: they delayed real action for another 25 years

Listen, @burgerbecky.bsky.social is one of the greats. If you can spare anything at all, and you have love for this medium, I can guarantee she's in some way part of the games you love. Please help our industry help her out. www.gofundme.com/f/help-rebec...

"but that is not the story" i have so much respect for this brave young woman

Finished porcelain sleeping kitten #sculpture #pottery

Dr. Jane Goodall filmed an interview with Netflix in March 2025 that she understood would only be released after her death.

Porcelain dove is done. #sculpture #pottery

super cool study found human artifacts in Bearded vulture nests, incl. "weaponry like a crossbow bolt and wooden lance, decorated sheep leather, and parts of a slingshot....a shoe made from twigs and grass is ~675-years-old." link to paper: doi.org/10.1002/ecy..... www.popsci.com/environment/... 🧪🌍🦉

The government is in full shutdown and the Republicans are refusing to call the House back into session. Want to know why? Because we have secured the final vote on releasing the Epstein Files and they don’t want it out. Call GOP and tell them to swear in @adelitaforcongress.bsky.social.

”The pain of being able to touch someone who is no longer there is unbearable. And when the second death comes, the death of body, there is almost a sense of relief, and along with that, of course, the shame of feeling it.“ buttondown.com/monteiro/arc...

I finally started playing Thank Goodness You’re Here and it’s just the type of absurd (good) shit that I need right now.

"If we lose hope, we're doomed." We must continue Dr. Jane Goodall's mission and all fight for the future of the planet.

RIP Queen

I just called Chuck Schumer’s office and, for the first time EVER, a person answered, who then politely entered my complaints into their call log. This tells me two things: 1) They’re not getting enough calls over there, and 2) If you want to yell at Schumer, today’s the day. (212) 486-4430

Back in my day, EA bought things and dismantled them, not the other way around

After 3D printing my first file handle, I realized my missed opportunity and bought a second file so that I could correct my error

the Command & Conquer series is 30 years old today we so have an excuse to share this iconic moment with Tim Curry

I get why people recoil from the word. It’s ugly, it sounds extreme. But you know what’s uglier? Pretending this isn’t happening until it’s too late to stop it.

“Fascism” isn’t a slur for politics we don’t like. It’s a precise word with precise meaning. And in the face of what’s happening right now in America, it’s the most honest one we have. I’ll lay it out as plainly as I can. 🧵

RIP Joe Betz, local legend. Caught him smiling in his fancy jacket a few times in my visits to House of Prime Rib. sfstandard.com/2025/09/24/s...

i am seriously begging democrats to bring the same smoke to this story that they brought to jimmy kimmel being indefinitely suspended

my favorite subgenre of Halloween decoration is “skeleton of things that absolutely do not have skeletons”

This is a critical point, and one the media MUST handle better. Don't want to say this is "trafficking"? OK, say the asylum seekers are being "shipped to foreign prisons without due process." But this is NOT deportation! They are not being returned as free people to their homeland!!

Get out of your comfort zone and put yourself in situations that help you learn more about yourself (and the world). If you keep doing this as you age, you will feel less old.

The best years of your life are ahead of you. Also: don't overthink everything. You really can't control things, not even if you become a billionaire, look how crazy they go trying. Live, do your best day to day, be kind to yourself, and don't put things off hoping for the perfect moment.

I wanted to get a video of this ghost crab but every time I got close to their hole they scuttled back in, so I tried getting clever with it. I made a little sandcastle and shoved my phone into it, hit record, and walked away. Crab was VERY suspicious of this addition to their environment.

As you cancel streaming services, here is a casual reminder that only 16% of Americans read for pleasure anymore, and your local library has hundreds or thousands of books you haven't read. They would love to see you stop by and renew your library card.

Silly Jimmy Kimmel. He should have just called for all homeless people to be killed and he’d still have a job.

Canceling the fuck out of Disney+

Cancelling as well. Ugh.

Trans rights are not the rights of a tiny minority, trans rights are everyone’s rights to self-determination, control of our bodies, and a society where opportunity and aesthetics are not restricted by sex assigned at birth You should support and defend trans people because trans people are people
