I've found MFA to be frustrating for a while, but this afternoon it crossed the line from nuisance to evil: my cat was sitting on my lap while I was working & the buzz of the Authenticator app scared her & she ran away. How dare you prioritize negligible amounts of cybersecurity over my cat's purrs?

Any cat lovers out there able and willing to help my friend's sweet cat get some medical care? Please consider sharing, if you can. gofund.me/0b39dd801

49 years ago today The Ramones played a legendary, sold-out concert at the Whiskey a Go Go in West Hollywood, California, on February 16, 1977, with Blondie as the opening act. The performance is considered a milestone of the punk era on the Strip. 📸 Jenny Lens #punkrock #ramones #punkrockhistory

The waitress gave me a slice of pie that is at least 150% the size of a normal slice of pie and I think I am just going to go home and declare today a good day already.

Very well said.

"I'm Argon. I'm a noble gas and I have a full valence of electrons! Everyone says I'm the best gas. Sleepy Chlorine doesn't even have eight electrons in its valence. Chlorine is an embarrassment to the Periodic Table. I'm going to Make Gas Great Again. Thank you for your attention to this matter!"

These commercials are trying too hard.

Joe Mixon continues to have more Super Bowl TDs that either Drake Maye or Sam Darnold for the time being.

When I attended the Super Bowl in LA, I got a glimpse of economic inequality that I'd never seen before. There was a drunk guy who fell asleep for one quarter in a $6000 seat. For some people it was just another night out (and one to sleep through) while, for others, it was a lifetime splurge.

As generally disinclined to listen to derivative punk like Green Day as I am, I am glad to see "American Idiot" performed on an international stage.

They really snubbed Ken Anderson AGAIN???

Bots don't have any lives let alone inner lives🤦‍♀️

Damn it. I really liked Darius Garland as a #Cavs fan.

The reviews for “Melania” are going to be far more entertaining than the movie. What a fabulous headline:

If I had to describe Trump’s smile to someone who has never seen him, I would tell them to imagine a parent asking their child to get out of a swimming pool to pee and the kid being defiant and just pissing in the pool. The self-satisfied grin the kid gives after deliberately pissing? That’s it.

Trump evidently hated Hollywood so much that he’s dropping a box office bomb named after his wife.

Channeling both Darth Vader and Michael Jackson?

Less AI apparently means more AI. #AcademicSky #EduSky

I was playing Franchise Mode in Madden and the Browns auto-generated a new coach who looks a lot like @bbaby41.bsky.social.

This one is a bit geeky, but I think it's funny... If the overlapping part of the Venn diagram of Emily Dickinson fans and people who dislike Donald Trump could create a cartoon, this might be it. #AcademicSky

Punks were (and ARE) right. #PunkSky #Zine

Very, Very Bigly Brother is Watching You!

We are all Sisyphus.

Rather than comforting ourselves with things that didn’t happen, we should be asking questions that actually strengthen our resilience. For example, what is it about American society that encourages us to accept extreme cruelty as a normal fact of life? How do we push back against this in future?

It's amazing how distorted our collective understanding of history is. The idea that women's liberation, civil rights, or even the outright abolition of slavery occurred in the distant past insulates us from grasping just how horrible human beings have been, can be, and are.

I think he just misspelled “bored of peace” since he doesn’t particularly seem all that keen on maintaining peace anyway.

"Framework of a deal" is 2026's "Concepts of a plan."

Imagine an abusive spouse driving off all of your friends and neighbors by mistreating them. Now imagine he or she telling you he or she is the only person who loves you and pointing out how all your friends abandoned you. Now, imagine electing that abusive spouse as the president.

The American people do not want Greenland. The American people do not want Greenland. The American people do not want Greenland. The American people do not want Greenland. The American people do not want Greenland. The American people do not want Greenland. The American people do not want Greenland.

“I’m going to stop attending school because you didn’t give me a perfect attendance award despite the fact that I only missed three weeks of class.”

1️⃣ He didn't say that. 2️⃣ He said it, but you misunderstood him. 3️⃣ He said what you understood, but he was just trolling. 4️⃣ He was serious but he's just negotiating, not going to do it. 5️⃣ He's going to do it for grand strategy reasons I've invented. 6️⃣ Look what you liberals made him do.

We are a few dozen haystacks beyond the final straw.

This is a man who models himself after the pseudo drama of professional wrestling. He creates “heat” by pissing off as may people as possible with unhinged sound bites, thrives on the boos, and revels in the attention. It’s no wonder he literally surrounds himself with WWE characters.

I’d love to see Minnesotans start waving the Gadsen “Don’t Tread on Me” flag at the people trying to tread on them.

The US is collapsing into fascism and going to war with Europe and the opposition party is like “I’m here to talk about the important thing: how your average grocery bill has risen by two dollars over the last year, which I also have no plan or ability to fix”

A general strike is called for January 23 in response to the campaign of kidnapping and murder that ICE is carrying out in the Twin Cities. This is a powerful step forward for resistance. But in the 21st century, a general strike must assume new forms to succeed. crimethinc.com/TwoGeneralSt... 🧵⬇️

GIFT article Trump's Letter To Norway Should Be The Last Straw Will Republicans in Congress Ever Step In? by Anne Applebaum www.theatlantic.com/ideas/2026/0...

Fascism in the US emboldens police in Canada.

Trump's message grousing that the Norwegian government had not given him the Nobel Peace Prize (which of course is not in their remit) was in response to a message from the Norwegian & Finnish leaders urging him to de-escalate. Which is material new information. www.bbc.com/news/live/cx...

Despite living within proximity to the USSR/Russia, Scandinavian nations have resisted nuclear armament since WWII. And now, thanks to one thoroughly unhinged lunatic, some of the most peaceful nations on earth are contemplating the unthinkable.

Han har ødelagt en nasjon, nasjonens internasjonale forholdinger, verdensfred, og økonomien. Takk, drittsekk.

Make no mistake: he is the ugliest, most exigent manifestation of the disease, yet he is still only a symptom. Removing a tumor without treating the underlying cancer will not be effective.

He’s out of his mind, a narcissistic megalomaniac in an all-consuming spiral of self-pity and selfishness, but the truly insane people are the thousands of powerful men around him who won’t say so and continue to dance around him like this is normal, rational behavior.

The inaction taken by our elected officials tells us everything we need to know about them.

Galskap.

That TD was insane.
