"This promise of an AI future, is really just a collective anxiety that wealthy people have about how well they're gonna be able to control us in the future." - @tressiemcphd.bsky.social with an absolute mic drop moment about AI bullshit. Incredible words. Listen to all of it!

This is my BJ’s D&D adventure! So proud of him.

Sometimes there's so much beauty in the world,... I feel like I can't take it. And my heart is just going to cave in.

I’ve watched this so many times. Sound up.

looked up the clip just because sometimes people change his words for captions that end up innocently reshared, but upon finding it decided to share the video because hearing him say it makes it 1000% more definitely true and everyone will listen/believe more than reading it written out

The six words every woman wants to hear

I've really been loving The Onion in general, and especially the print edition. Something made by humans, that values human creativity over artificial efficiency is such a delight. Capitalism tells us to always produce more, but The Onion is saying, 'what if we produced something better?'

There are no red states, no blue states, only purple, from Idaho fuchsia to Vermont violet. And in every state there are children, non-citizens, and prisoners who can't vote. In every state where one candidate won, a bunch of people voted for the other candidate. And so forth.

Caught my cat Eppie apparently practicing for a boudoir photo shoot.

Your capacity to love, stand tall, and peacefully take no shit unnerves them

This is worth 3 minutes of your time. No one wants to eat at a restaurant that only serves bland chicken. (It’s not about chicken, or restaurants, tho)

Follow @myalabamalibrary.org! It’s my upcoming online magazine that will tell stories about how public libraries in Alabama change lives every day.

Federal judges have issued temporary orders to block the Trump administration from taking any further steps toward gutting the agency. But the unexpected slashing of grants has delivered a significant blow to many libraries.

Sure, your dog may be a sweetheart. But does she cuddle with chainsaws?

Libraries are the People’s University complete with Professional help to aid in finding the most reliable sources for information you want/need

So my girlfriend is an amazing stop motion animator, and she recently did a medieval cat themed bumper for Adult Swim! Sharing it here because she only has Instagram and I think everyone needs to see her animations. She's so freaking talented, y'alls. PLEASE go follow her!

Like, George Santos definitely needed to go to prison. But I’m gonna kinda miss that magnificent bastard.

Happy birthday Tim Curry, here he is saying space like nobody else could for a Command and Conquer advert #TimCurry

Why even have a brain, any ideas, any ability to express them, any kind of communication with other people, any desire to solve problems or invent anything, any reason to learn, any use for your eyes or your heart, or any reason to teach or create

We’re not hard enough on these birds

Anti-LGBTQ+ groups are targeting our school boards and local libraries around the country to try to censor what kids can read. Glad the Fairhope, AL community jumped in to support the Fairhope Public Library after they stood up to a book ban 📚🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️

Writing global economic policy from their hearts.

This is fantastic.

My main takeaway from Severance is that I should be the Helly R. I want to see in the world.

We were told not to share this publicly, but last year was record-breaking—America’s national parks saw over 331 million visits.

I hate it when I accidentally tell all my secrets to the editor of the Atlantic. Real oopsie doopsies

How will I choose where to stick this magnet gift from my perfect sibling when the correct answer is to put it on every single surface somehow?! 😭😍🛸

Casual reminder to NOT call Senators who do not represent you. Especially in high call volume moments like this, you're blocking access from constituents who can actually get tallied. 👍

A lot of the “achievements” of western civilization actually kind of suck but one thing that definitely does not suck is how half our children don’t die anymore

Well, I just got let go from my job. From the same company that fired my husband a few months ago. So we’re both out of work. Y’all, don’t trust rich people who run tech companies, but matter what “company values” they tout.

Spotted this on a walk today and it made me smile to think that someone took the time to turn an ordinary, ugly junction box into something pretty Sharing in the hopes that it might put a smile on your face, too

In Minnesota, we value the people who care for our veterans, even if DOGE doesn’t. If Trump fired you, come work for the State of Minnesota and help take care of our vets.

you’re fired. wait you’re rehired. email us a list of things you’ve done today wait forget it you’re fired again. come back your job was important. you’re fired. or hired. come in to the office. wait the office has no computers go home. we are the department of government efficiency.

Zelensky was ambushed by 2 children. I work for schools. Have to do playground duty. I see it all the time. Two bullies picking on the smart kid.

You know, my life isn’t bad or crazy hard. But I sure could use some good news about now.

Call your representatives using @5calls.org because we CANNOT let this stand. These are screenshots I took of US government accounts, including THE WHITE HOUSE official account.

Book bans impact public libraries & bookstores, but it’s school libraries where they are rampant ❤️‍🩹 Many kids are unable to make it to the public library. They can’t drive, often times the library isn’t in walking distance. It’s not that their grown-ups don’t want them to be library kids. 🧵 1/11

We won’t disappear just because you change a website.

**NEW CALL** Demand your reps work to reverse the Trump admin's decision to cut NIH and NSF funding! These cuts will cause an immediate and massive funding shortfall at research institutions nationwide, forcing layoffs and jeopardizing critical scientific research. 🔥📞🔥 5calls.org/issue/nih-ns...

Just ugly-cried because my favorite dog on YouTube died.

Today, I called both my senators and my House rep to demand that they halt all congressional work until Elon Musk’s government takeover has been halted. Reply with any actions, big or small, that you’ve taken or are taking today.

@5calls.org Thank you for providing this important service. Can you add Tommy Tuberville’s local office numbers to the app? I was able to look them up, but I’m sure he’ll get a lot more calls come through if they’re in the app (his DC number rings busy). Thanks again!

Fleetwood Mac’s ‘Rumors’ was released 48 years ago today, all rise for the national anthem. 🏴‍☠️🫡⛓️‍💥 #OFMD

Holy crap! This is real!

We don’t need another ruler/ All of my friends are kings/ I am not America’s nightmare/ I am the American Dream

I’m just another white person who tries to do better. But if it means anything, it’s Black History Month in my house, and my house supports everything on this list.

It’s so weird that some of the top-grossing films of ball time have had 0 cultural impact.
