I think the fundamental gap here is that non-creative people think that creative people make things for the end product, when in fact it’s the act of creation and not the end point that makes it worthwhile.

Movie theatres forever.

It makes me equally happy and sad every time I see Maurice's park on a map. #WishYouWereHere

So if you have to wait until the bullying is personally insulting, that’s not integrity.

Post your warning label.

Every outlet worth a damn should be calling this out. www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article...

I made it to Good. I’m good with that.

Administrators at Indiana University baselessly fired the student media director and ordered the student paper to cease its print edition, so it'd sure be a shame if this excellent digital front page were to be widely shared today issuu.com/idsnews/docs...

We don’t deserve dogs.

While it can be tough to scroll through the news and comments here, I’m so happy that @bsky.app exists. Thank you to the development team for making this space possible.

It's bad when your German friends say this all seems so familiar

“With an epidemic of half-cocked logic and illusions being sold as sound conclusions, it’s more than hard to know what to believe in; it’s hard to believe. But I don’t want to quit believing, and I don’t want to stop believing in humanity, you, our potential.” www.theguardian.com/film/2025/se...

The 10-year-old inside me is struggling to take today’s Spelling Bee puzzle seriously.

The truth of the matter is that if anyone but Charlie Kirk had been killed at today’s shooting, then Charlie Kirk would be out there right now using the shooting as pretext to deliver arguments designed to make sure that the next shooting would happen, and the next one, and the next, and the next.

Oh man do I miss him.

I'm always surprised when a media outlet lists an album as the highlight of the week and then gives it three stars. That's like getting an assignment back with "Great job!" written at the top and a score of 60.

It's distressingly easy to mis-read this message.

At the intersection of rock, pop, and suck, you’ll find emo.

How is this real? It looks like a Monty Python animation.

AI apps struggle with spelling. If they can’t complete simple tasks correctly, why should we trust their answers to more complex questions?

This attempt at humiliating these women is a snapshot of exactly how much so many men despise women for showing up in their strength & authenticity. They’d rather just “grab them by the pussy” and throw a fake dick at women than to see any real value in them whatsoever.

“The dildo thrown at a women’s basketball game isn’t just a crude joke but a memeified act of humiliation. It doesn’t challenge power on any level, it just wants attention. In a culture without shame, the humiliation sticks to the target: the players themselves“ www.theguardian.com/sport/2025/a...

“A winning streak”? In what possible universe was that true??

We need more human beings.

In their first episode after signing a 5-year $1.5 billion deal, the creators of South Park attacked the corporate overlords at Paramount. Magical. www.theguardian.com/tv-and-radio...
