Remember when: Trump got the “FIFA Peace Prize” (lol) Truly embarrassing instantly. www.theguardian.com/football/202...

Armageddon is terrible, but our only other option was diversity trainings at work.

In Korea, when the president declared martial law after midnight and erected barricades in Seoul, congressional reps from all parties ran into the streets, yanked ak47s from the army at the barricades, broke down the locked door to Congress, repealed the martial law order, and arrested the president

Good for us all to learn more about the #25thAmendment (which is hard to pass, but... time to force the issue). time.com/article/2026...

I remember when they had a purpose other than rubber stamping a Mad King

Fun fact: the US government actually used to *oppose* central european fascism

More like dalton C-Rushing amirite? #mlb

“The rich are ride-hailing their way out of public transit, draining fare revenue from the system. It’s another instance of the accelerating economic segregation of the public sphere.”

Well it was a fun month or so for #Lakers fans but I guess that’s all we get. (With Doncic and Reeves out awhile, think we can pretty much forget any kind of deep playoff run.)

There it is. While families can’t afford day care, health care, or even their rent, Donald Trump is willing to spend your money instead on a never-ending war in the Middle East.

Happy #LetterboxdFriday, I’m cheating to expand #LastFourWatched since I didn’t recently rewatch Casablanca (just finally rated it)

This is powerful, if true. More of this. Refuse. Stand on principle.

Wouldn’t expect anything less than the worst from Xfinity but that Jurassic Park ad using mostly creepy AI slop versions of Sam Neill and Laura Dern is especially THE WORST

“Casualty Cover-Up”: The Pentagon Is Hiding U.S. Losses Under Trump in Middle East via @theintercept.com "Almost 750 U.S. troops have been wounded or killed in Middle East since October 2023, analysis by The Intercept has found. But Pentagon won’t acknowledge it." theintercept.com/2026/04/01/i...

Earthquake! A good shake at 1:40 PT. ((Goes back to sleep))

Reminder to next dem government: take all of SpaceX’s federal contracts and give the money back to NASA.

If ever there was a year where an April fool’s joke news story or social post felt especially pointless, it’d be this one.

We need more positive stories and pro-science stories so here’s one: The high school student whose filter uses magnetic oil to trap microplastics | The Optimist Daily www.optimistdaily.com/2026/03/the-...

It is the mainstream right-wing position that if you don’t like your kids you should be allowed to kill them but only after they’re born.

When will this TSA (and air traffic) bullshit be over? Because as someone already anxious about flying and travel, potentially traveling somewhere in the next month, not sure I can deal.

It's just a fantastic story about the part of Minnesota few of us have seen highlighted during this strife. I'm proud to show it to you today and I hope you give it some time. prospect.org/2026/03/30/a...

Made the mistake(?) of making my Instagram public again so I could share my video from the human banner NoKings protest at the beach here. (A journalist requested permission for the footage.) it did well and had supportive comments, but also quite a few trolls. (I admit it IS fun to ban trollbots.)

My quickie review of Anaconda, which has its moments but is mostly a snake without a fang boxd.it/dKji7v

Hurt was eternally underrated as is Chilly Scenes, a wonderful indie romance (now on Criterion Channel) 🥹

American Pie is maybe the only song you can say is 7 minutes too long.

Was doing research on moth traps; reviews under this one makes me want to start calling moths “small butterflies” (going to go ahead and assume this woman meant moths here) 🦋

Contrast this with the WBC where team USA guys wouldn’t even shake hands with opponents. Good sportsmanship and joy and entertainment is what we need right now most! It’s a children’s game. Have fun! www.espn.com/mlb/story/_/...

It’s comical the number of legit people who waste a minute yelling back at trollbots on Instagram comments. You can spend literally one second looking at their profile and seeing they have zero posts, and huh, their bio link goes to (squints) Yahoo dot com, to realize, hm maybe don’t bother?

Thank you for making No Kings 3 the biggest day of mass protest that America has ever seen. #NoKings

The NYT says today’s #NoKings protests had “no shortage of skeptics,” and then quoted exactly one of those skeptics: The chairman of the Ole Miss College Republicans (as of 2025.) But of course, the Times doesn’t ID him as such. He’s just a Concerned Youth.

That’s me to the left of the T! (Well I’m there, you prob can’t see me)

Chuck Schumer likes to imagine how his politics play with an imaginary middle-class middle-aged couple on Long Island, but I don't think he realizes that couple is currently constructing a guillotine in their suburban backyard and stockpiling Molotov cocktails.

The #NoKings sub protest at ocean beach in San Francisco to form a human banner had its largest turnout yet, 5,000 people. Look for overhead drone shots of the sign later via news outlets. The downtown SF one will be far bigger but the sign here always has great visual impact.

Like my sign? #NoKings

Heading to protest/banner at the beach. Listening to Lambrini Girls to get pumped up for anarchy! Or just to wake me up. @lambrinigirls.bsky.social

They. Own. This. Mess. (Keep holding strong, Dems.)

I am not convinced that this administration is taking the war it started that risks global economic chaos with sufficient seriousness.

Early anecdotal evidence suggests that participating in No Kings events is motivating the women organizing them to think more about what they can do to support their country’s democracy. And some of those women have decided to run for office.

Really enjoyed Project Hail Mary, especially this aspect of the story

I had applied for a scripped proofreading gig on Upwork. I got note back from job poster who said he’s going to hire someone with more Upwork experience since I currently have almost none. But what I do have and made very clear on my application & profile is 20+ years of experience doing that. 😐

I don’t know if even Carl Hiassen could come up with this scenario

Because of course he was. These people are all about vilifying others based on no evidence to distract from their own awfulness based on plenty

OpenAI news: 1. Sora is dead. May the memory of its four-month existence as a copyright infringement machine be a blessing. 2. Disney is pulling out of its billion-dollar investment in OpenAI entirely. Turns out when you try to serve AI slop on a product people pay for, no one wants it.

Trump calling mail-in voting “cheating” and trying to ban it then voting by mail himself (again) as Republicans lose a Mar-A-Lago state house seat is really perfection 💋

It really feels like every tech guy had a very strong belief that they could just tell everyone what to do in almost every area of their life and it turns out that people kinda hate that
