Galadriel is Elrond’s mother-in-law

name a non-LotR character who is a cool and good person but would nevertheless set land speed records for getting fucked up by the One Ring

The thing is, it’s a more important piece of white American history.

I have no idea.

I thought this was a parody quote. I’m sure it has context because of golf or something? The point is, the president of the United States of America is talking about grass. Talking about rewards he deserves that weren’t given to him. Talking about nothing. Because he understands nothing.

Conservatives when you hit them with a sandwich

Walk-in cooler so I can store my condiments and have room to do stuff, like brine.

Huge if true: New JWST observations may have detected primordial black holes in the extremely early universe. Before galaxies, before stars ... black holes may have generated the first light after the Big Bang. 🧪🔭 www.scientificamerican.com/article/the-...

What a weird fuckin’ list. Regardless, there’s no universe in which Trump beats any of them in a “who is funniest” survey, unless that survey is done in 2029. And not because most people alive don’t know who the old white guys are.

14” Pullman entire loaf slices, maybe? Tight crumb. Efficient use of griddle surface. 10/10

This is so breathtakingly cruel that my soul glitched. I’m never surprised by the depths of depravity, per se, but having to process it still exacts an emotional cost. www.npr.org/2025/08/08/n...

I was told these gentlemen were very passionate about protecting women’s sports.

I decided to follow some Sports People on here a while back to be brave and, you know, keep up with the People Who Like Sports. But mostly I just don’t know what’s happening & there’s a lot of money floating about. (It’s very fun to capitalize nonsense words and phrases. Probably why the 🍊does it)

Phylactery? I feel like this is an important thing that would have been used before.

City of God really made me think over and over and over about other peoples lives. I should have realized it sooner.

Hear me out: Duncan Idaho but actually Janet from The Good Place.

I kinda think the way people use ChatGPT is sort of aspirational because it seems to emulate the way rich people have sycophants lying to them all the time until they lose touch with reality and also their entire minds

Is this the proof of negative curvature of the universe, @astrokatie.com ?

Wearing a corset to form your figure pushes all the blood up to your nips, brah. Suck it in.

Because we couldn’t get del Toro’s vision of the hobbit (if I was a billionaire I’d fund another two movies. fuck the redundancy! (three was an abomination and I’ll die on that hill)), this is a classic story I’m excited to see imbued with his artistry.

Who rolled the die that put us in this timeline?

The sad thing about Bluesky so far is that people will respond to you or like your reply! But you get the bots.

Fire up the Escola-Signal now. We need their take.

I guess if anyone of note responds to a lowly peasant Bluesky user, you get a group of bots that start to follow you. It’s happened several times.

Happy birthday, Vera Rubin! 🥳✨ What better way to celebrate than with NSF–DOE Rubin Observatory's view of galaxies SHE studied? NGC 4343, 4526, 4535, and 4378 are just a few gems from our Cosmic Treasure Chest. Explore them and more at skyviewer.app 🔭🧪

Look. I think Pres. Obama is fine making an appearance once in a while; stepping out for a quick speech for an election. He’s done what he set out to do and stays in the background. But what I would not do is come after the man. I would not poke that bear. Fuck around and find out though, I guess.

BUM-BUHL Bee (in Connie the Hormone Monster’s voice)

Not sure about this new Andrew Cuomo ad

They’ll use some excuse like oh, that clause was unintentional because of X (ai) and then makes the clause slightly less bad but still really bad and that’ll be ok for some

The people of Canada need to start referring to the U.S. as “south of the border.” I mean it. It’s literally true. It’s also using demeaning terminology that the U.S. has used for so long in Mexico. Also, people of Mexico, start talking about dipshits north of the border. We deserve it.

They need prison sentences.

Well, the finale of Murderbot was just delightful. On to the short story. I’ll read it through watery eyes. reactormag.com/rapport-mart...

Looking up. ❤️💛💙

I quote LotR movie Gandalf: “I have no memory of this place.” Out loud and in my head a lot. But I use it mostly as a “what the ACTUAL FUCK is going on?” reaction in my brain.

It’s a displacer beast. NOT INNOCENT

The people of the U.K. not only name their desserts in questionably edible terms, but actively return to aspics. I don’t know that they were ever meant to be eaten? Is it royalty from the 1400s? But we have Jello in the U.S. and it it’s been around sine like 1900 as an edible adult food, so. Fail.

The English language is eight raccoons in a trench coat.

I’m being petty. I don’t know anything about basketball. I am being petty. But that name. I am being petty. Really? I am being petty. But for real? I am being petty.

I was wrong, @darthbluesky.bsky.social May the potato be ever in your favor.

Arrr! @darthbluesky.bsky.social I wondered if you were aware of Otherwords with Dr. Erica Brozovsky on PBS Storied. I think you would enjoy it. This is a good episode. youtu.be/Rt6orh_lc7c?...

“Independence day is canceled because of fear of secret police raids” is really a level of on the nose political symbolism you just can’t make up.

May anyone connected to this regime never eat saliva-free food again.

It’s every parent’s nightmare, isn’t it? you check your child’s bulletproof backpack and find a picture book about gay penguins

Make no mistake, the SCOTUS decision about birthright citizenship IS ALSO ABOUT *birthright citizenship.* The Court is using nationwide injunctions as the tail, wagging the dog, to take us back to an Antebellum view of citizenship. That way led to war once. My latest in @thenation.com

Thinking about the tut-tutting Democratic politicians who spent their two years in power warning that Supreme Court expansion was too radical an idea to even think about taking seriously. You absolute fucking rubes. You gigantic, credulous losers. I hope you are ashamed of yourselves today.

This is a really lucid nuts and bolts expert's explanation of what "AI agents" need to actually do "under the hood" of your phone or computer in order to perform the tasks they're promising. Basically: say goodbye to all separation between apps and OS, and any notion of privacy and security.

this is a segregationist administration and it is wild to me that there is any resistance to this straightforward observation
