This is great! 😂

NZ Govt has taken a huge bet on fossil fuels. NZ was already spending $8 billion a year importing fossil fuels, and now the global fuel crisis is going to make that worse. Betting on fossil fuels has turned out to be a losing bet for NZ. This is the 14 point policy record of 2 years of the NZ Govt:

Fractures Emerge Between GOP’s Pro-Pedophilia, Extremely Pro-Pedophilia Wings

Idk who did this comic but it's hilarious

Xiao Qi. I love her art.

Just when you thought it was safe to go back to the river.

Why do the Japanese like their buns askew (2026)

I’m always fascinated by how the media portrays our descent into fascism under this govt. It’s just a cute summer break with a person with eccentric things not importing an economic vandalism playbook noooooo of course not.

My favorite scene from the Bible

"Underprecedented times" is always an option

I should have read this yesterday, when it was (apparently) quantum day: a remarkably accessible summary of atomic theory from the rambling madness that is The Third Policeman

Trump has gone after MAGA influencers, the Pope, as well as the leadership of Italy, Spain and the UK. Yet he was oddly quiet about Melania’s Epstein remarks and played dumb when Bibi sabotaged the peace talks. He knows they, like Putin, belong to a small group that could sink him forever.

Here are my top 10 dog and news reporter interactions!

Sure, there are exceptions, but most people most of the time don't have to use Amazon. You don't need a Prime account. You can choose to give up a little bit of convenience to avoid funding an economy run by people who are OK w/ working people dying on the job & just letting their bodies lay there.

Remember Planthony? Well, we could use him again so here he is bringing us much needed levity in this growing dire times. And once again, if you’re in Seattle please visit his store

Gary on a Cybertruck is the start of a movie where a woman passing by gets such a horrible case of vaginal dryness thet walking creates a rip in time & her 22yo son disappears having never been concieved. It’s called “Misconception”

Something like this will have to happen in this country once Trumpism is defeated. In the absence of accountability, the world will rightly assume that it will happen again.

This Reform leaflet from three Gateshead candidates looks like a timelapse of the same person

Octavia E. Butler, 1998:

Current status of the Strait of Hormuz dispute

When a person loses 1 sense the others are heightened. That's why people who have no sense of humor have an amazing sense of self-importance.

Trinity Rodman just made a core memory ❤️

Long ago, a cat died from being fed four minutes past feeding time. Cats have told their children of this for 3,000 generations.

Life shouldn't be a competition, it should be a community activity. The people who treat it as a competition are the ones terrified of being picked off in old age by the young, like they did to their elders, that's why they burn the bridges and fight to take away people's rights and healthcare.

watching NASA hit a very specific target in the big big ocean with a vehicle that just came back from outer space at 25,000mph definitely has me reflecting on the charter bus company that couldn't get me to a bus station

dogs... so loyal! LOL

"You're an author? Would I know anything you've written?" "Have you heard of the book Eat Pray Love?" "Oh wow. I have, actually!" "Well, one of my books was printed in a typeface not totally dissimilar to the one in that."

I missed this from @phineas.bsky.social when it originally came out but it sure feels relevant at the moment. Also, you can buy this as a print from the artist here: www.inprnt.com/gallery/phin...

Absolutely remarkable statement from Pope Leo today. One for the history books www.theguardian.com/world/2026/a...

Creative. 🌹

Now, the kicker: $200m not spent domestically means we are gonna lose about that much demand from the economy soon. Friends, $200m / week is about 130,000 jobs worth. This is serious. Any media folk want to ask for an unemployment forecast, and, errrm, whether we have a frickin plan? [Ends]

This is so well done. 👌

Pope to Olympic Athletes: “It is possible to win without humiliating. One can lose without losing oneself. And this also applies beyond sport. It applies in social life, in politics, in relationships between peoples, because sport, if lived well, becomes a workshop for a reconciled humanity.”

Sincerely… NASA couldn’t have chosen a better team of people for this mission. They have been a bright light in the shadowy time here. It’s been a joy to watch. #nasa #artemisii
