Thea Hail is a 22 year old wrestler in NXT who a few months ago announced she was gonna start streaming. She got heavily dunked on when she only bought a monitor as she genuinely didn't know you needed anything else. I don't think this is uncommon at all!

Today my Gen Z friend and I were talking about vintage tech, and she asked me what “the box under the screen” was called. I feel BAD about how loud I shouted “THE COMPUTER???” (“No, the box the screen sits on.” “THE COMPUTER???” I shouted again, even more rattled now)

"Bannon first enters the picture when Epstein took an interest in World of Warcraft." I would like to eject from this timeline plz

I read thousands of pages of Epstein files this weekend trying to understand what he wanted out of his meeting with 4chan's Christopher Poole. Here's everything we know about Epstein's plans to dismantle the internet and, eventually, democracy. www.garbageday.email/p/here-s-how...

I feel very grateful to have been lurking quietly in the background during the four years that @tigershungry.co.uk was curating the annual No Quarter exhibition here! Check out this amazing roll of quarters.

progress is going to probably be a lil slow on this but i'll update it as i go!

Bought this painting at goodwill today and I’m gonna fill it with animal crossing villagers. Donate at least $50 to the campaign below and put your favorite villager in the “dedicated to” field and I’ll add it to the painting until I run out of room.

Only 3.5% of a population needs to protest to topple a dictatorship. That’s it—3.5%. Don’t be made to feel like you can’t make a difference. Keep up the pressure! en.wikipedia.org/wiki/3.5%25_...

I don't know what they updated, but it seems pretty well optimized for a Mac laptop now! Which is important, because that's where I do most of my work stuff

spent a little time checking this out today while doing chores, and i really like it! like Webfishing meets Spirit City Lo-fi Sessions

a lot of people feel on a kind of instinctive level that its kind of gauche & unsophisticated, perhaps even inherently reactionary, to talk about CSA & its apologists openly & seriously, to have a political analysis of it as a specific form of structural violence intertwined with gender/race/class

He’s shitting down everything. Mass defecations. Everything he touches turns to ass. Our cultural heritage, soiled; our national treasures, plunk plunk

Please help Rowan, who is extremely cool

Liam is home now and we are grateful to @joaquincastrotx.bsky.social for traveling to Minneapolis with him and his dad. Welcome home Liam ❤️❤️

I find out this way This is how I find out Wow (this rocks)

I texted my best friend "I'm a lot more hopeful today than I was yesterday" and—incredibly—that was BEFORE I found out about the shart video

I love hell world

At #fosdem? Come to the open source design dev room (I’m on the OSD steering committee and volunteering this year) AND come see a talk I’m giving this afternoon :) fosdem.org/2026/schedul...

reposting this bird and cool language fact before I get offline for an indeterminate amount of time

Underrated "conservatism is the ideology of daddy issues" data point is that Reagan had an absent, alcoholic father and latched onto his successful brain surgeon father-in-law and became the exact same kind of California crypto-Bircher he was

all enshittification is probably caused by a sociopath entering the room and going "how do we exploit [anything]"

"microtransactions in games started by cabal of pedophile elites for the purpose of indoctrinating kids into an economy" Ok. Well, we all knew it was evil somehow but I really didn't expect Epstein to be responsible for why video games are bad now. That's just not what I would've thought.

"cradle to grave" economy

The husky is bellowing a song of mourning because I mixed a couple tablespoons of canned tuna in her lunch and now it's gone

all I have ever wanted, as long as this game has been out, is a half-buried Statue of Liberty to plant at the very end of my beach

ugh for YEARS my Peacock profile pic has been Jessie Spano, but they took everything away and one of the few choices still remaining is Boss Baby

at EFF we’re worried about an extraordinary number of things these days, but Signal is not one of them

MAKE THE COMPUTER GOOD AGAIN - GET SHIRT OF THIS AT DASHARE.ZONE - dashare.zone ADMIN

I spoke to a Target employee sharing images of SSDs and other tech parts receiving massive price increases.

I’m a doofus who forgot to put an actual point on the end of this. I remembered my point in the car yesterday (the post has now been updated)

Y'know, as a kid I briefly thought I wanted to be an art restorer like Dana Barrett in Ghostbusters 2 and, as I use those special crayons & markers to fill/tint some scuffed-up wood at 2 in the morning, I feel like I am really getting to achieve that dream

At some point during the two years and three months I accidentally abandoned my Animal Crossing island, all my Villagers put on glasses

NYT less insightful than a 9 year old 4chan post

It turns out one of the best explanations for how we got here comes from a novel. From “Hell is a World Without You,“ @jasonkirk.fyi:

NEW: One of Pope Leo XIV’s top U.S. allies, Cardinal Joseph Tobin, is calling for the defunding of ICE. Tobin says the “lawless organization” is a “machinery of death.” This marks the first time a senior Church leader has called for ICE to be defunded. More are expected in the coming days.

I recently explained to a friend why I’m still optimistic. Sensitization is the process of becoming *allergic* to something from repeated exposure. “So the process of sensitization and desensitization is the same,” I said incredulously, “with two opposing outcomes. I pray more people are sensitized”

Larry “Oracle” Ellison has spoken publicly at length about his plans to combine ALL data sources to create a preemptive portrait of ALL citizens to preempt and crush dissent

another profound metaphor for life: building a rolling laundry hamper where you have to perfectly line up SEVENTEEN DIFFERENT TABS (I counted) before it'll snap into place (x2)

babe wake up they made alchemy real

I regret to inform7 you ma'am but your son is dead. Your son is found in the Grey Hallway. The description of your son is "a poor soul who died in these hallowed halls." The son is wearing a backpack. The backpack is openable and closed.

I asked the 6-year old what holiday is today and she said it was MLK Jr. day "and Dolly's birthday!" and

People occasionally try to hide in Disneyland after closing. Not a good idea! They are all murdered by the Abraham Lincoln terminator

“Maybe I’ll just die, how bout that” makes me think he’s further along in the book’s creative process than anyone realizes

I'm so tired I just accepted "Wouldn't It Be Nice" IS a Beatles song, then thought it was a good time for a Beach Boys joke. In other words, I quote-posted a post and proceed to make the exact same joke. Good night

lol ok I‘d missed this article up until right now www.thecut.com/article/broo...
