My son and I saw the new Avatar film in the theater today, a 3D showing. At this point, I'm ambivalent about the storyline. I was just there for the spectacle, the eye candy of it all, and heck did it deliver! Very much recommended to see on a big screen, esp in 3D. 1/2

Omg omg omg omg omg

how i'm walking out of 2025

By all means, do share your decorating ideas, likely costing millions, while the American people are struggling to afford housing, food and health insurance. What a piece of shit.

Calling out a fascist for taking a hypocritical position is easy. It's also a complete waste of time. Fascist rhetoric is aesthetics— pathos, never logos. You'll never get anywhere pointing out a fascist's hypocrisy. Fascism is not to be debated, it's to be smashed. Get comfortable using power.

Seasons greetings.

This Christmas, I have just one wish for you: Take a moment to really see the older people in your life. Let them know they’re loved, valued, and never invisible. Share a smile with an elder you don’t know. Offer a warm holiday greeting. Small gestures carry enormous power. Love,
 Lynda 🎄✨

'Twas the night before Christmas I'm sitting on my hiney Polishing these frets Until they're quite shiny ✨️ Merry everything, y'all! 😊

I've had a few ... * "not fleeing the united states" would top the list, except I'm too old to emigrate anywhere else. 🙃 * I assumed my then-boss would actually tell me that he was closing shop, instead of finding out from co-workers the following week. * I trusted a fart, more than once 😳💩 1/3

I feel like I'm going to get a lot of use out of this Pluribus screencap

Remember: Type out "Trump" and put a space at the end.

The FBI put a thousand agents (their own words) on trying to hide all the links between Trump and Epstein. They failed. When people found some additional photos of Trump in the release, the DOJ promptly DELETED THEM FROM THE DOCUMENT RELEASE. www.npr.org/2025/12/20/n...

Morning.

Unburying the lede from my essay on why we all feel like numb frozen crap these days… catvalente.substack.com/p/this-is-wh...

Hey @artofcoop.bsky.social! I bought an old and heavily stickered guitar off Goodwill's website. The front of the guitar featured one of your Space Girls 😀 It doesn't look *exactly* like the one here, but it's basically the same: theartofcoop.bigcartel.com/product/coop...

“Oil… oil… oil… oil… oil… oil…” TLDR: It was never about drugs

Same 😊 But let's flip the script for a moment: in 1991, I did not own *any* guitars 😮 (I didn't learn how to play guitar until 1992.)

The last time I was in a band, I always played the main riff of this song during my soundcheck 😊 (I was playing a 12-string bass through an Ampeg SVT-Pro head, so it sounded YUGE)

Me, when it happens

😭😭😭

The only good thing about America not have great public transport is we have so many gas stations to hang fascist by their ankles from.

the vibe you need to thrive in this day and age, the groove you need to make it through the Christmas season, is this picture of Ronnie James Dio playing bass when he was in Elf

As he celebrates his 100th Birthday this very day, can we all take a moment to acknowledge that time when Dick Van Dyke won the internet internet. Forever.

Dang ... if I had the cash & garage space (and if my fat ass could fit in it), I'd seriously consider bidding on this 🤔 The Bay Area punk history tour with Jello seals the deal! 😀 That said, it's a manual transmission, which can be fun but would mean a very aggravating experience in city traffic 😬

We all know Clarke's "sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic" Well we have corollary:

This exactly describes my experience 🙃 As a child/tween/teenager, I was extremely bad at being a boy, but didn't figure out why until I was 44. In high school, i did figure out how to stop getting beat up. I gender-policed my behavior and tried to emulate my peers. I became a people-pleaser 😞

Something I have to reiterate is that you are being straight up lied to about trans people and our healthcare on an unfathomable scale, this instance reporting is already being torn to shreds by other people commenting, but the frequency of this kind of reporting is astonishing, it's neverending.

As much as I love St Louis, this is why I have to get out of Missouri 😞

Weird Al x RATM ... the crossover we didn't know we needed 🫡

Every part of this is bonkers. The intro is bonkers. The transition to his health is bonkers. The mention that other presidents didn't need cognitive exams is bonkers. The claim that this screening test is somehow hard is bonkers. The idea that criticism of him is treason is bonkers. All of it.

you will be visited by 3 spirits

This is all true but 1) under no definition are we currently at war with Venezuela under domestic US law 2) since we aren’t, the initial strike was just as much a murder as the follow up The failure to understand this by a huge range of actors is really driving me up the wall.

Introduce yourself with five concerts you've seen: * Metallica (blowing Ozzy off the stage; 1986) * nine inch nails (a month after they played Woodstock; 1994) * Sonic Youth (under the Gateway Arch; 2009) * Bikini Kill (headlining Riot Fest; 2019) * Voivod / Prong (co-headlining tour; 2024)

What a great headline

What in the AI-generated hell is this?? 🤨

Birb of prey

😆

eleven years passed since I accepted my truth I am a woman

this, *this*, is the greatest crossover of all time

Socialism is what they called public power. Socialism is what they called social security. Socialism is what they called the growth of free and independent labor organizations. Socialism is their name for almost anything that helps all the people. —Harry Truman, 1952

In related news, a new gender-neutral public toilet is opening soon! 😀

Dementia Don is truly a piece of shit 💩
