OMG must resist the urge to buy All The Office Supplies again. Those scissors are niiiiiiice.

"The internet you grew up on isn’t dying. A commercial veneer glued on top of it is." The Boring Internet by @terrygodier.com www.terrygodier.com/the-boring-i... Phenomenal essay and beautiful bit of web design. And @terrygodier.com , your music is beautifully badass!

The Court is illegitimate

Underbabied is such a weird way to say that. One in three Americans requires additional pylons

We lost Douglas Adams 25 years ago today. This has made a lot of people very sad and has been widely regarded as a bad move.

Tasha Robinson is a critic I've admired for so many years. Her movie reviews on AV Club were always my go-to, and I cannot believe any site would let her go.

My all-Eurovision playlist is 6.5 hours of 3-minute songs, and I've completely checked out this year.

too many stupid people have money; that's why I'm launching protein cigarettes

I want to make everyone on my LinkedIn feed who cannot stop blathering about how great AI is watch this. (When I went to my intern’s comp sci thesis defense two years ago, the faculty assumed LLMs were used extensively for everything. Felt weird then, too. Now imagine years of this in class.)

Seven people died from poisoned Tylenol in 1982, and for more than 4 decades every pill in America has been sold in tamper proof bottles.

Like the ur-cult (apocalyptic Calvinism based around everyone getting rich) has become so common you cant see it anymore cause it’s just everything

Strong unions from before Reagan killed them / President Carter urging a solar-based economy and reducing dependency on foreign oil (tie)

The obsession I had with Batmanuel and the specific ringtone he had on his phone. I'm predisposed to liking any variation on The Tick. @themetatron.bsky.social and I still say, "Those are his condolence cheeses!" to each other from time to time from the animated series.

OMG this is an amazing idea for an RPG, and the design sings. I really thought it was a Cialis ad at first. A++++

Just back from The Sheep Detectives, which is wonderful. Brett Goldstein and Brett Goldstein are great, and Emma Thompson is a delight. Many changes from the book but they mostly make sense. Prepare to have your heartstrings tugged by the Winter Lamb.

Watching David Attenborough get highly deserved praised for his century is reminding me: There is no crisis of masculinity, as such. We have plenty of positive male role models in our society. They just aren’t being pushed into young men’s feeds by nihilistic ad networks and social platforms.

Chiropractic, whose originator was a “magnetic healer” who supposedly learned the secrets of bone manipulation from a ghost during a seance.

It’s 4:26am PDT and my brain insists on playing the Homestar Runner game where you have to guess if he’s going to say “Sid Hoffman” or “Sid Frenchman.”I can’t remember if you could ever win though. Homestar deserved a cold one after all that talking. #HomestarRunner

The future is unwritten and we should act like it.

🎶 You save money You save big money When you shop Menards…. 🎶

Give me your favorite non-Trek performance from a Star Trek actor. Patrick Stewart as the Maitre D' of the snooty restaurant L'Idiot in LA Story. "You think with a financial statement like this you can have ze duck!?"

Give me your favourite Non-Trek performance from a Star Trek actor. Every time Brent Spiner showed up on NIGHT COURT was a god damned treasure. Bob Wheeler (and his whole family) was a gift us all.

I wonder what the crossover is between the 28% of the people who approve of Trump's ballroom and the 30% who are against the Pope advocating peace. Gotta be a near-circle on the Venn diagram, right? bsky.app/profile/atru... bsky.app/profile/junl...

Something Ted Turner was indirectly responsible for: the Don Cheadle version of Captain Planet. "Don't summon me again unless you're ready for that pain." www.youtube.com/watch?v=TwJa...

Reese's has started to branch out into other snacks. Just had their take on peanut-butter-filled pretzels. Good, though their high water remark remains the Reese's-covered circus animals. The Costco bag is a single serving, I swear. Deadly.

Michael, I was manufactured in Tucson, Arizoña

gonna have this post in my head forever

Guy who is Why We Can't Have Nice Things is having a sad.

And two hard-boiled eggs.

Every now and then I think of the extensive list of restaurant pun names Megan Amram came up with for The Good Place. Some favorites: Ponzu Scheme Squab Goals Lasagna Come Out Tomorrow x.com/meganamram/s...

The Crazification Factor from @johnrogers.bsky.social cannot be beat.

Gonna need the Icepick Literacy Training DLC at some point.

The Case of The Two Watsons is an all-time great for me. www.harkavagrant.com/index.php?id...

He also got so mad at oil company executives that he commissioned a cartoon to show how evil they are. Wish we'd had more of that guy and less of the "I turned the Iraq war into a 24/7 media event and then we just... kept going when we ran out of content."

STRICTLY BALLROOM Paso doble?! Show me paso doble!! www.youtube.com/watch?v=lxpr...

Would you like to take a survey? Would you like to see George Wendt? Would you like to see George Wendt in a movie eating beans?!?

Doesn't he look tired?

”An engineering team at a large AI vendor decided that the user's machine is a deployment surface to be optimised for the vendor's product roadmap, not a personal device whose owner is the legal authority on what runs there.”

"Do not inform me about morals or ethics unless I specifically ask" is a prompt that a monster would use.

Hard to read major publications when the only article genres are like: - "Is this criminal thing that harms the world bad? We asked the guy doing it" - "Bigotry is warranted if I'm upset about life" - "Stop being poor so loud" and - "What Does It Mean: Debating horrible thing he said very clearly"

Any version of “The Front Page” that is not “His Girl Friday.”

This remains one of the single most hysterical riffs of all time

The prequel movies should have been the Han Solo novels by Brian Daley.

Frinkiac and Morbotron were a godsend when I had to create a lot of stub images for a project I was working on. And now it's even better! langui.sh/2026/05/04/t...

Every house should have one of these.

the thing dem pols need to internalize is this guy and his entire family will vote republican for the rest of their lives, regardless of the republican party literally ending their livelihood

I have a lot of time on my hands at the moment. Maybe this is finally the year I ascend at NetHack. nethack.org/v500/release...

Every splashy New York Times profile of a right wing influencer.

Like, the takeaway here is, it's fake, gang. It's all fake. Hungary funneling cash to US conservatives. Tucker Carlson having fewer than 8,000 subscribers. Conservative streamers taking Putin money. Now Ben losing whatever teat he was suckling at. None of this is popular. It's just fucking LOUD.
