Can't keep a book depicting rape on school shelves! Oh wait, rape *and* incest? That's probably OK.

I'm not sure it's realistic of @uwmadison.bsky.social to think AI will be competent by the end of this year

If you've had an actual relationship with a woman you wouldn't need this.

I'm pretty sure I've seen more people talking about Moon Knight in response to this question than I did at any time while the series was first being shown.

A series of Bicentennial concerts featuring artists of a similar vintage might have featured the likes of the Andrews Sisters, Bing Crosby, Billie Holiday, the Mills Brothers, Marty Robbins, and Kate Smith, assuming they were still alive and performing in 1976.

i keep seeing this post floating around and... it's just not accurate? the reason that there are a bunch of disused canals around the midwest is that they were obsoleted by better canals over the following 200 years. Commercial shipping in the Erie Canal indeed peaked and declined... in 1951

I don't dance but I'm not passing up a chance to share my favorite song about dancing.

Soapdish. The ending is painfully transphobic. (And to be clear, it was just as transphobic then, I just wasn't pained by it. That's on me.)

I feel like the photographer could have gotten a little closer tbh

Pick a Bond villain from the pictures you already have on your phone.

Films more likely to star an actor called Chris or a talking animal than a woman over 60, study finds

A great, underappreciated single

I'm tempted to say Wisconsin v. Milwaukee but actually it's just that Wisconsin hates black people.

Somewhat reminiscent, albeit much funnier, of the time I was approaching County Road ID -- county routes here in Wisconsin have letters, not numbers -- and my Garmin confidently told me to take the exit for County Road Idaho.

Diet Coke is it's own flavor. This is so weird. It ain't an apples to apples argument. Sure the fake sugars are different, but the flavor profile itself is different. People drink Diet Coke because they like the flavor of Diet Coke.

Repost with a favorite picture of yourself (I'm on the left)

Sea *and* waves in this one

'Where Does Your Taste Live?' My closest five: United Church of Christ (50% resonance), Presbyterian Church (USA) (49%), The Episcopal Church (45%), Unitarian Universalist Association (42%), Evangelical Lutheran Church in America (39%). Take the quiz: www.theodramatist.com/where-does-y...

I own this on DVD *and* Bluray

I don't necessarily keep track of things like this but hearing this at least six times a year in the 23 years since I discovered the band seems very plausible.

I hate video man, can't we just read

Who am I to judge another's reason for hating a movie

Is it because fans irrationally continue to support the teams even when they suck so the owners can continue to hoard their billions instead of spending it on making the teams better?

Once again I am reminding you that you can quote-repost just the first post of a long thread with a note that says, say, "read this thread, it's terrific!" instead of reposting all 28 posts individually.

Any excuse to post a New Pornographers song

There was a reproduction of this in my elementary school and I misunderstood what the AD stood for. I assumed it went with the date, i.e. 1502 AD.

We may not be hosting any World Cup matches this summer but our occupancy is looking pretty good, thanks.

I've been rewatching Arrested Development lately and suddenly I'm seeing certain parallels between Don Jr. and GOB.

Ten out of ten no notes.

A lesson for Madison here.

San Diego fell from 5th to 12th most expensive rental market by building more multifamily housing per capita than any other California city. This is what happens when you actually build. The lesson isn't complicated. www.sandiegouniontribune.com/2026/05/13/s...

Butch and Sundance: The Early Days was the one that sprang to mind immediately, but there are so many choices.

guy who is mad at Nolan’s Odyssey because it depicts the sea as blue instead of wine-dark

Guys. The Ancient Greeks weren't white. They were more like cephalopods than modern humans -- their skin was bioluminescent and constantly shifting its color. And they didn't live in in idyllic seaside villages; they could only survive near deep-ocean vents. They DID have Matt Damon accents, though
