God fucking dammit Darren. How in the hell do you go from doing the nebula in The Fountain by filming chemical reactions under a microscope rather than CGI to doing this?

This is the best speech, just from a pure rhetoric perspective - its sophistication and persuasiveness - that I've seen a politician deliver in a good long while. Really recommend watching or reading the whole thing.

@jonbois.bsky.social how does overtime work?

Whether it's Barack Obama asking for Dijon mustard or Donald Trump screaming "fuck you" in a Ford plant at someone calling him a "pedophile protector," presidential norms have been challenged in the 21st century

My coverage from Minneapolis for @rollingstone.com is live. I spent the latter part of last week and some of the weekend watching as the city's people came together to figure out how to honor an innocent woman who shouldn't have died while figuring out how to protect itself from what's coming.

Forensic analysis of objective video evidence. This is how you serve readers searching for clarity.

Ender's Game remains my favourite novel. Card's homophobia and reactionary activism isn't like Gaiman or Lovecraft or Rowling because it doesn't fit. I know many Ender's Game fans have to reconcile the two by speculating that Card is closeted, but I can't go there. I just ignore him.

one of the things i hate most about this persistent line of argument is the implication that any of these actions would be fine if groceries were cheaper

when someone tells me not to use em dashes because AI uses em dashes

This is actually quite brilliant, up to and including the final sentence 🔥

apple? pumpkin? *haughty laugh* pecan pie? all of them mere treats for younglings, and yet you care for them even in your exile. the galaxy balances on the edge of a vibroblade and yet you still find time to engage in aimless confectionary sophistry. you, my student, are a puzzle

history will ultimately decide this but i think joyce carol oates might have just landed the most devastating burn in human history. like the death star trench run of posting

I simply do not understand why people look at betting markets as any sort of indicator other than what a bunch of gambling addicts are guessing based on the same info we have access to. One of Nate Silver's most pernicious little legacies.

UNTIL IT’S DONE, Ep. 4: Sylvia Rivera In the 1970s, queer New Yorkers had been pushed to the margins of NYC. Our trans neighbors faced immense cruelty. But in Sylvia Rivera, they found a champion. As we combat Trump’s politics of darkness, her legacy can light the path forward.

What happens when you distill 2025 into a single social media post? This. This is what you get.

I still can't get over the surreal experience of watching Trump effectively telling all our generals he is going to order them to kill American citizens in my city in a speech that he also stopped midway through to spend 5 minutes explaining how he is so smart for walks down stairs slowly.

@vorthosjay.bsky.social I apologize for asking this question, the type of which I'm sure you're getting a lot of, but it's oddly important to me - is The Scouring Stormsoul" from through the omenpaths native to Thunder Junction, or one of its many visitors?
