If it is a lav mic it should not be held! They are not holding mics! People who use their fingies to hold lav mics SHOULD be jailed!

don't forget to tell the pool water thank you.

I designed this parody account that posts hourly to give everyone the Why experience to those blocked by him I dare say it's better than the real deal @whyphonedunker.bsky.social

this is an astounding way to refer to an adaptation of Neuromancer. incredible headline work if your goal is to send a bunch of thirtysomethings on a rage spiral.

If Trump dies richer than when he became president, with his Supreme Court justices still in power, without he himself ever facing consequences, with the 1% keeping all their gains, with the ICE budget in tact and without any prosecutions of ICE or his admin he didn’t lose. He won. Understand that.

"Seven other judges endorsed the panel’s view that agreeing to give information to Google is the same as agreeing to give information to the police." Our society is so fucking cooked.

we're going to get another ruling where this is OK because a justice can imagine a universe in which cops are good enough at their jobs that they don't violate our rights, therefore no violation has happened.

“We were in Vietnam for 18 years” is not reassuring. It’s horrifying. A president who cares about the Constitution would be explaining legal authority, objectives, limits, diplomacy, and congressional consultation. A strongman shrugs and says, “I’ll take as long as I want.”

All the "free speech" folks from the last fifteen years have taken the position: "This is bad, but it's the fault of the left for going too far."

The Onion is worth $479.1 trillion and exactly three Bitcoin, since we’re just saying stuff

With so much awful news, here is something to brighten your day:

NEW: Critics claim large solar farms are a public health threat. Despite little reputable evidence for this, their fears have helped undercut efforts across the U.S. to broaden energy sources, slowing installations even as customer costs are rising.

this headline is such a great example of “racecraft.” musk isn’t passively posting about “race,” he is actively writing psychotically racist agitprop www.washingtonpost.com/technology/2...

What Bovino means: About a third of the population isn’t white.

This is treating Trump v. United States as law. It is not law. It is anti-law. It belongs in that category of Supreme Court decisions which were not merely wrong, they were illegitimate and non-binding from the day they were issued. It is owed no more respect than Lincoln gave Dred Scott.

Yes, Swiss scientist Fritz Zwicky coined the term “dark matter” which is impressive, but he also coined the term “spherical bastard” to describe people who are bastards no matter which way you look at them, and I think that should be celebrated more.

This is important. “More than 100 retired NASA astronauts have banded together to form a new nonpartisan organization…its members “believe deeply in the principles that have propelled our nation for 250 years,” such as the rule of law, checks and balances and the peaceful transition of power.”

i’ve worked in tech more than 20 years. it has never been more ridiculous.

At this point they have to create so much more than AGI. They have to turn whatever LLMs are into the next iPhone and the next Azure and the next Office Suite in two years. They’ve pissed off everyone and already spent so much money and it is in no way even remotely worth it

Tech industry really feels like a power keg ready to blow. The WSJ did a whole story about Oracle’s debt and how banks can’t resell it very easily because of the risk. Cursor acquisition isn’t really an acquisition yet. Deepseek 4 drops on a Thursday night. Jensen Huang slightly losing it too.

CEO-to-worker pay ratio in 1965: 20-1 CEO-to-worker pay ratio in 1990: 75-1 CEO-to-worker pay ratio today: 280-to-1 Trickle-down economics was always a sham. Nothing has ever trickled down.

see the mistake he made is thinking that because republicans performatively worship special forces guys and it's a time where there are no rules for those at the top, he'd be allowed to do financial crimes. but nope, he's not one of class of people, he's an attack dog, money crimes are not for him.

NEW: Pope Leo XIV told the world’s press today that the Catholic Church’s moral imagination has long been too narrowed to sexual ethics — and that war, migration, and human dignity are the “much greater, more important issues” of our time.

Some people on here will see this picture of a guy who was literally on death's door being wheeled in by staff members who are puppeting him to file to run for re-election and be like, "Actually, it's ageist if you think he should have retired any time in the past decade."

When Einstein developed general relativity the closest thing to a practical application that could even be imagined at the time was a slightly more precise description of where to look for the planet Mercury in the sky, and yet now we’d all be literally lost without it. Anyway: fund basic research.

Yeah, there’s no point in posting multiple images now, because no one will see anything beyond half the second image. Anyone who’s studied web design (or even print design) would know that things “below the fold” get skipped, and while we’re used to doomscrolling down, we don’t do it horizontally.

Alright... just to be safe. Follow me on Instagram, please and thank you. #ttrpg #comics www.instagram.com/d20monkey/

this is a *wild* thing to put in the handbook. the whole point of a company handbook is to have a document that says how perfect your policies are when you get to litigation. it is, literally, a defense against punitive damages—but not if it says this lol

Oh, that isn't even allegedly, here it is.

A woman is suing MrBeast's company for alleged sexual harassment and verbal abuse She claims MrBeast's mom runs his HR department and that the company handbook allegedly says 'It's okay for the boys to be childish.' kotaku.com/a-woman-is-s...

Move over Hemingway, "Elon Musk, please help" clocks in at a cool four words

Dying in office because you insisted on clinging to power until the very end instead of letting a new generation of leaders rise should be seen for the shameful, egomaniacal act that it is.

I just want to make sure everyone knows that the Republicans lost fight over ICE and CPB if they fund this through reconciliation. Why? If I was a fighting Dem, I would never fund ICE or CPB through regular order until reforms are made, or the agency is killed. www.nytimes.com/2026/04/23/u....

You are being lied to. And there's only one man who knows the truth. Jim Haggerty returns, only on InfoWars.

I despise with the heat of a thousand suns the way I have to be suspicious of all art I see now while I investigate it's authenticity, because this couldn't be more diametrically opposed to the state of mind one should be in while taking in all art.

This is insane, tinpot authoritarian shit. www.nytimes.com/2026/04/22/u...

GOOD POST

Here's my original character Waffles the Wizard. He was hired by the king to maintain the ley lines that used to work great.

Always love an opportunity to post this image
