12yo boy theory racks up yet another W.

They’re all peak

I just resigned from NASA. It breaks my heart to leave, but I’ve become convinced the best path forward is to do the best science I can, and that can’t be here anymore. I’m still in love with the promise of those four magic letters. Ad astra per aspera, and remember: Earth is the only good planet.

Oh great, it's his now. Guess I'll build another one for me.

Honestly my only body goal right now is to look good enough to rock some slutty crop tops

"I'm doing my part!"

I hope @sandyfrizzle.bsky.social is doing ok, I haven't seen her on here in like a year

Going to start a campaign to bring back Dwayne Johnson's nipples in Moana a la the Sonic Movie redesign campaign

Day #234: The Flying Nun (1968)

Anyway, it's pretty shocking for those of us who were active and organizing in the early 2000s to see that the strong majority of this country is firmly against the war on Iran.

This is exactly what our research shows: when it becomes harder to tell apart expert-looking content from the real thing, the value of expertise goes up. And so does demand for it… giftarticle.ft.com/giftarticle/... AI hallucinations haunt users more than job losses

Rice cooker cups are 180ml instead of 250ml because they are one gō, a unit dating back to the 16th century Edo era. A gō of rice is 1,000th of a koku, about 150kg of rice. 10,000 koku of rice production was the minimum wealth required to become a feudal lord. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Koku

The purity test put on Jews to have absolutely no ties to Israel at all is impossible for most Jews, in case that wasn’t obvious Many have family in Israel because they went there after the Shoah, or after the Jewish expulsions from Arab countries, or because they’re Ethiopian Jewish refugees

robert e lee was a traitor and a scumbag but, importantly, he was also incredibly overrated as a general and one of george mcclellan’s greatest crimes (of which there are many) was making him look better than he was

I talk and talk and talk about how anticommunism is deeply baked into the American psyche, and still, at a time when old people and sick people and disabled people are having their lives snuffed out in Cuba because of a blockade this country imposed, it's still "but Lenin was bad actually" discourse

Throwing it out there, if you need a knock-off Patrick Warburton, or a generic English voice, I can and will be a voice in your indie game for free.

Sometimes I worry that not everyone has watched Claudia O'Doherty's short but perfect Web series "What Is England?"

This film was one of the biggest influences on Hayao Miyazaki and Isao Takahata. Seeing it for the first time, Miyazaki told his friend, "I guess we’re failures, aren’t we?" This is Crac -- the first masterpiece by animator Frédéric Back. We explore: animationobsessive.substack.com/p/the-lament...

idk man if you start a fight with the biggest man alive in front of his kids i guess I think it's fine when you get beat up

under President AOC we will build a new DOGE. a Woke DOGE. we're giving 25 million dollars to anyone willing to study queer beekeeping in the Global South.

The fetish for “having worked hard and earned a good living” that is so uniquely present in the USA is a scourge, a plague that ruins people’s minds and makes them see their fellow man as less than

just a CEO waiving privilege in a national publication in a way so unambiguous that he literally starts with the question “what did the lawyers say?” and then answers it

Never forget that Jack Kirby decided that Toshirō Mifune was so awesome that he made him an Eternal.

Trump's FCC has approved the Nexstar-Tegna merger, meaning a single company will soon control 250 TV stations reaching 60% of U.S. households. Eight Democratic attorneys general have filed suit to stop the merger.

Some of you never had to make peanut butter and jelly on leftover hot dog buns and it shows.

Roughly planned out the final battle of the dnd game I'm DMing and it has the party fighting evil undead while a dragon fights a god in the background. Maybe a walking Castle is involved. Very excited.

Ok you KNOW it smelled crazy in there

New — I collected stories from travelers at airports around the country on Monday after ICE agents were deployed to help TSA. No one understood beforehand why they would be there, and after a day with them around, it’s no more clear. Read the multi-city dispatches:

This really is an encapsulation of what being an American is: experiencing something needlessly cruel and profoundly stupid while propaganda you can’t turn off blares about how free and lucky you are

I'ma say it: "It" is a dumb name for a book

As always, I recommend just using a photo of the game director's face as a placeholder if you have nothing else to hand.

The question that broke America fundamentally was ‘do all people deserve basic rights?’ This question was too hard for us. Too hard for our leadership. It still is. So now all of our rights are in jeopardy.

There was ONE ATC in the tower at LGA during last night's crash. ONE ATC, at LGA!, dealing w ALL air and ground traffic, including a plane filling w a strange smell and no gate to return to. The Pentagon wants $200B for a vanity war, but our ATC towers are empty. Budgets are moral documents.

This is literally the only thing i have the bandwidth to read about today

picture, thousan words, etc etc

well would you look at that

We’ve told all the casting agents that the Weird Al biopic sequel is currently on hold, but they just keep sending in headshots.

I don’t think we should go back to twitter levels of toxicity but there’s a lot of confidently stupid turbolib opinions on here that can only exist in a low predator environment.

I hate the framing of “Ms Rachel has found a new cause—“ because no she hasn’t. Advocating for children kidnapped and locked up by ICE is not incompatible with her advocacy of children in Palestine. You just want to make her advocacy sound frivolous and fleeting. She’s being consistent.
