are there ever bees that wish they had a different job? like someone in the nursery who longs to dance with others to warn about dangers

Bashear should just declare McConnell dead & begin following the procedures to replace him, whatever they may be, unless & until proof of life is provided. McConnell would respect the gamesmanship.

Pope Alexander VI would've loved this image

"You must accept the risk of month-long explosive diarrhea because an apartheid-twisted memelord stole all the money from the department that keeps us all from getting explosive diarrhea from our food" and I'D be the one under FBI monitoring for saying the people who do that deserve to be executed.

Statement from @bikeboston.bsky.social, @streetsboston.bsky.social, and @walkmass.bsky.social about Louisa Gag, who was hit and killed by a driver today. Yet another life taken because our society and leaders refuse to address the destruction wrought by cars.

I can’t tell if the compass rose ruins it or makes it

DAWG WE'RE DOING STATE-RUN GAS PRICES AT PRICE CONTROLLED RATES DESPITE INCREASING SHORTAGES TO PACIFY THE PEOPLE AND THEY'RE SCREAMING ABOUT HOW THEIR OPPONENTS WANT COMMUNISM I AM GOING TO LOSE MY ENTIRE GODDAMN MIND

too real.

Everybody please just be so careful out there

data visualization is my passion.

Our media will of course learn no lessons from this, but the initial ICE narrative about the two murders it committed here in Minneapolis was 100% false, slanderously depicting the victims as aggressors attempting to kill federal agents. Literally zero reason to believe ICE here. Zilch. None.

Like not to be funny but that is like the entire premise of the Odyssey

That Lupita Nyong’o’s looks have made some of the most powerful men go completely insane and fight over her inclusion in this movie only goes to prove that Nolan casting her was absolutely correct bsky.app/profile/dail...

In addition to being illegal and immoral, this is also how you get increasingly radicalized and disruptive protests. If an entirely legitimate and peaceful protest gets punished anyway, no reason not to go further.

Once again, I am just a small-town international relations professor, standing here, begging our media & our Congress to take our most important signed, ratified international treaty seriously & threats by the One Special Boy to violate it as the presidency-ending scandal that it should have been.

For some people, video games are about the wonder of exploring strange, thrilling, action-packed worlds but for me the joy of video games has always been all about moving to a franchise-centric planning strategy to better focus resources on long-term growth and stability amid broader restructuring.

the now-decades-long saga of tubman on the $20 bill is a great, if somewhat unimportant and symbolic, example of the democrats' lack of ability to Just Do Stuff

I'm so disillusioned, I almost don't even care who gets the FIFA Peace Prize next year

For better or worse, Bluesky has attracted a disproportionate amount of earnest people, and that is actually a helpful quality to evaluate the character of public figures

Man got Chotiner’d without even agreeing to an interview. Astounding

normally i would cheer for the US because our men's team are perennial underdogs, but knowing Trump called FIFA to bully them to give us a special exception to the rules as written (and they complied), i'm like "YEAHHHH BELGIUM! GET OUR ASS"

and another thing: im not dead. please dont put in the newspaper that i got dead.

ELIZABETH WARREN calls on Platner to drop out: “There can be no tolerance for sexual assault… With so much at stake, the best path forward is for Graham Platner to step aside as the Democratic nominee and address these serious allegations outside this Senate race.”

*I do not endorse any pope, I just endorse consequences and would like the democrats to be to the left of the fuckin pope

No more His Holiness Nice Pope indeed. Benedict and Francis tried the carrot. Leo is bringing the Chicago baseball bat of loving fraternal correction to the problem now.

THE VATICAN IS CALLING IT A SCHISM I REPEAT HOUSTON, WE HAVE A SCHISM

heatstroke is for wimps and losers. power through it, my man. i believe in you.

Microsoft this week: We're laying off half the industry. Sony: We're ending physical games. Nintendo: have u seen this splatoon weapon we call it the bloblobber

WELCOME TO SCHISM WATCH 2026 WITH CLAIRE

As the director of a historical video game preservation institution, and someone who has dedicated his entire adult life to this cause, this is accurate. We have attempted to work with the industry's trade organization to find a legal path forward, but they refuse to offer a meaningful alternative.

IMO this is something that is better addressed not through demanding optical discs specifically but by treating a "right to backup" as a basic consumer right analogous to right to repair, privacy protections, etc. Which would imply console OSes having the ability to dump games to USB media.

i was like "ah, well, overpriced food is an actual state-fair tradition that they naile-- [spit take] TWENTY FIVE DOLLARS FOR A PRETZEL??"

All of these cases are basically litmus tests for any Dem nominee. Are immigrants Americans? Do trans Americans deserve human rights? Are corporations superhumans who get to spend endlessly on elections to put whoever they want into power? These are simple questions with simple answers.

Four Supreme Court justices inventing the "nuh-uh I don't like it ewww" defense to the actual text of the Constitution.

“You have to give up your privacy & anonymity online because there’s just nothing we can do about the open web getting bait-and-switched into an unregulated global social experiment that gamifies the worst behaviors of humanity for the profit of two billionaire freaks” is just not a great pitch.

I want to boost this again and specifically highlight the fact that this is entirely open source, including detailed schematic notes on the design and component choice. It's a brilliant piece of engineering that gifts so much knowledge to the world.

one skill i've significantly improved in my 40s continues to be "sticking things in my nose"

in addition to the stupidity of the plan itself, i hate that this is messaged as "going after Tech". age verification *benefits* Big Tech. the Googles & Facebooks of the world have the resources to implement age verification; small indie sites will find it much harder to bear the brunt of the cost.

Put another way: even the most Centrist Democratic US Politician believes that people deserve to have the safety net to retire by the end of their 60s, if they want to. Why stop there? Why not use the productivity gains of automation to create a society where people can retire at 50, or 40, or 35?

Soft power is when you force the British to make 1776 brand cheddar cheese

Happy #PrideMonth! Enjoy a Tesla getting smashed by a light rail train with a pride flag.

my kind of Jubilee, the Japanese national team vs. 100 kids

it's a shame Fauci doesn't have the billion dollars to give Fox News the gawker/hulk hogan treatment, because even by America's relatively strict libel/slander standards, this feels pretty Actionable.

i'm sorry, i believe i was added to this thread in error [cc: every agent in the company]

friend at a big tech co just told me that her company's chatbot and their client's chatbot have been caught in a mutual support loop for several days that has generated nearly 20k emails
