Today’s new post: The 120th Anniversary of Vauxhall Bridge. Exploring the story of two bridges across the Thames at alondoninheritance.com

Those of you who've followed me for a long time know my history with the GamerGate harassment campaign; I was one of their longstanding targets, they tried to dox me, go after my family, etc. I raised an early alarm about them and covered them. And I *still* do not agree with this take.

If you need an ad-free mental distraction from <gestures at everything>, I have found the Fruit Merge game on the CBC Kids website very addictive and fun: www.cbc.ca/kids/games/p...

Increasingly of the opinion that one day, when we're not really expecting it, we're going to get one incredibly alarming post at 2AM that gets deleted within about 7 minutes, then not hear from him again for a few days, then The Announcement

Change in Headline

AP talked to the original vocalists (mostly Jodie Rocco) who said "any performers using the “Milli Vanilli” name in connection with the event should be considered a tribute band with no vocal or musical association with their sound or songs" Fab Morvan however IS playing wjla.com/news/local/n...

in a few years we're going to see a whole bunch of people go "wait, why didn't we do anything for the 250th" and you'll tell them "because Trump" and they'll just be confused because they spend their entire lives completely checked out of everything

chomp chomp 🦈 #art #sharks

the worst people on the planet have hello kitty avatars and @s like yummycrumbly but DETESTABLEPERVERT666 would probably pull me out of a burning building

40. Have I gotten this far without talking about "Pink Floyd: The Wall" the movie? Roger Waters casting Bob Geldof as his avatar is the most Frank Booth "you're like me" moment in rock history.

I always play these with the sound off and watch Bartiromo trying to look sober, awake, and human, which she usually fails at

ooh, my mouse broke, what a freakin day today has been everything broke! even my shoes!

An art professor I follow just took an entire article by Fred Bols and made a thread out of it without one bit of credit Ugh god that makes me so mad

Actually I think there's something wrong with my account or the app or something because I'm not blocked now but I've seen two accounts tonight that I *know* I blocked who are now unblocked One of them absolutely blocked me first, she would not have unblocked me

that guy has always been a yutz and I'm glad he got ratioed

Every couple months I check in on the latest Adrian Chiles articles and I’m always absolutely blown away. These are all from the last couple months. The man is operating at an incredibly high level.

lol that fake doctor who tried to pass off a survey report as full-fledged medical research blocked me I was very polite!

Went to read that article everyone says is so great and it starts out saying it's based entirely on the comments of Billy Pencils and Helen Lewis Then it also repeatedly uses semicolons where there should be colons

It’s a heatwave so best way to keep cool for our emus is a shower #emus

It's because the guy muted me when I replied to him, I found others on Reddit with the same issue (with different people). I can see his posts just fine with my burner account. Guess he didn't have an answer.

Is there a reason why this post wouldn't show up in the guy's replies? I'm scrolling his replies and this is very clearly missing, but it's not hidden in the thread itself

not yet, I just saw a rainbow and now I'm going back to bed

RIP Grizz

Our first post on Bluesky & it’s great to be here. Some exploratory work close to the forts a few weeks ago & we found evidence of the annexe’s eastern rampart. We return at the end of June to investigate further ahead of our main excavations which start in August #Castleshaw #Romans

Fascist tech VCs say a lot of things and focusing on their GLP-1 fantasies is disingenuous The media is whipping up a frenzy about GLP-1s because it's easy, weight loss judgement and drama has been a proven attention-getter for decades, but now it's apparently escalating into "Ozempic is fascist"

I love their new album!

I tried to look up how long after taking Ambien I should wait before I could drive and now I think I'm on a bunch of government lists

Pillsbury Boston Cream Bundt Mix (1982-1985): A kit for making a Boston cream pie-style bundt cake. It included yellow cake mix, a vanilla pudding filling, and chocolate icing. Part of a line of mixes from Pillsbury, specifically made for bundt pans

All the food discourse is doing is upsetting me again because local stores really did get rid of most of their good heat & eat foods years ago so if you want to eat at home it's full cooking or a pizza

I can't stop wondering why his head looks like that It didn't used to look like that, and in still photographs it doesn't look like that, but in videos his head is both square and round at the same time. Baffling.

I hate that I know this but a lot of what J-cye CO says is meant to be the kind of insult that only English majors who made it to grad school before the turn of the century would understand

Man was born to live más, but everywhere he is living menos

Welp, now my DMs are off Ridiculous day

The original post I was responding to, because captaindisillusion blocked me for lightly talking about 1930s mens clothing, which is hilarious Who gets mad about something like this?

It's a half zipper flannel which was a common work shirt at the time, so were half button styles. The placket went down further than the henleys we're used to today, and had scoop-shaped shirttails. A bunch of Sears and Pendleton brand 1930s shirts are still around and easy to find

The thing about Zang and his cohort is that they can be tremendous anywhere from 50% to 90% of the time but they are also all from very similar socioeconomic backgrounds and as such they'll drop some real whopper of a racist or sexist or transphobic dog whistle out of nowhere

In the comments she says if any of her friends are bothered by it she doesn't care, and someone says they'd be irritated by it and she's like "well I'd never be friends with you" And we're supposed to take this as good, general, everyday advice

The Mother Jones op-ed was written by a follower of Jesse Singal. Of course it was.

my dear friend has been dealing with a truly horrendous neighbor situation and it has led to unbelievable legal bills. i'm so angry!! i know money is so tight all around these days, but they're truly fighting the good fight against a real son of a bitch, so anything you can spare is so appreciated

I'm a an OLD FASHIONED fella. I like my SOCKS MATCHING I like my WHISKY NEAT and I like my HERMANS SQUIRMAN

So even Mother Jones is compromised now? Op-eds saying Tina Peters didn't do anything THAT bad? I feel like I'm losing my mind

Is this why the place is overrun with trolls blaming Democrats for everything, including things they just made u Are we still doing this? Every time Dems have a win the site is gonna melt down and have a temper tantrum? It's tiresome

It's not super great that there are so many people on here who spend their Saturdays begging for another civil war
