I'm a little in love with the way that guard (diplomat?) strides across the lobby to let the ICE agents know just how unwelcome they are.

😵‍💫😵‍💫😵‍💫

The head of the BC Greens is calling on British Columbians to boycott The Jim Pattison Group because it appears to be in the midst of striking a real estate deal with US Homeland Security to sell a building it owns in Virginia to be used as a “processing facility” for ICE

Minnesota is the best of us.

Good article here by Raquel about TCM's MLK Jr. Day programming this year, which looks like wall-to-wall excellence. I'm especially interested in James Baldwin’s documentary I Heard It Through the Grapevine (1982).

when william said that grissom x sara were in a mind meld when working together... mmhhmm

THREAD. Ten Basic But Important Rules For Authors: 1. Never expect anyone to read your book, even if you sent it to them for free.

I'm gonna say this with all the kindness in my heart: you aren't going to survive if you don't let your life have room for other things. This is not a short term fight where we can just go 24/7 and then it will be over. We've got YEARS ahead of us. Take a break. Hydrate. Go bake something. Breathe.

The reason I dislike the term "content" is that it centers a container, a money-making structure, and reduces creativity to interchangeable "stuff" that exists only to fill that structure. Just call it writing, videos, whatever it is. It's not something for another thing to "contain."

I really appreciate when people post about good things they do with/for their communities, no matter how small. I know some people believe virtue only counts if you don't talk about it, and if that's you that's fine, but just to say I find it helpful & inspiring to see folks I follow doing cool work

Remember what you love, and never let it be far from your mind.

"You and I" or "You and me"? Which one is right? Both…depending on whether ‘I/me’ is the subject or the object. -"You and I are going to the store." (subject) -"This is for you and me." (object)

Dear artists, it's hard avoiding wondering if what we do is irrelevant or an insult when it's harsh, scary, dangerous & violent out there, but one thing is always true as stone: someone will need what you do, someone won't, & you won't know the difference. Err on the side of hope. Create if u can.

Despite predictions that AI would allow them to work faster, a new study shows that utilizing AI tools made experienced devs perform tasks 20% slower on average: https://fortune.com/article/does-ai-increase-workplace-productivity-experiment-software-developers-task-took-longer/

How long will it take them to figure out that genAI is just a slow, expensive way of producing things that have a cheap, mass-produced feel?

this whole sequence Got to me, but this line especially made me so emotional. i'm so sad rn, jesus christttttttttttttttttttttttttttt

Your monthly reminder: Keep writing. When no one cares, persist. When things appear to be crumbling, keep at it. When it's difficult, push through. When you feel alone, listen to the stories in your blood. Just write. The world needs your stories.

I don’t think there are “harmless” ways to use the evil AI machine billionaires are shoving into everything for evil purposes, actually. There are cases where the benefits may exceed the harms, but anything that further enriches the tech oligarchs is not “harmless.”

Post a famous bathroom scene.

The US has a really excellent track record in terms of intervening in South America and the Caribbean so I am sure kidnapping the Venezuelan president will also go great and there will be no negative consequences and it will only lead to stability! 👍🤦‍♀️

I think Bari Weiss picked this bozo for being the person who practically accused Ta-Nehisi Coates of being Hamas.

What was the last movie or TV show you watched in 2025?

CSI 4x12 - BUTTERLIFED is the greatest episode of tv of all time and here's why! (1/3525)

*gil grissom voice* i've been a baseball fan my entire life. it's a beautiful game

Birthday boy Humphrey Bogart hopes your Christmas is the stuff that dreams are made of.

Near-perfect entry in the timeless genre of Holiday Staff Greeting From the Clueless Boss—"I was right last week and I'm right today, Merry Christmas and don't think you get a day off."

the calm is but the wrapper and envelope of the storm; and contains it in itself, as the seemingly harmless rifle holds the fatal powder

Trained historians produce knowledge. We research in archives to write books/articles that reveal something new about our human past. The process starts with secondary source reading to get the context for what we view in the archives. No part of this process can or should be outsourced to AI. Ever.

Historian: AI has no place in historical research or writing. AI pusher: You don't know what you're talking about! Historian: I do. I am a historian. AI advocate: Luddite! Historian: *writes twenty-seven post thread about Luddism*

The Ghost conducted him through several streets familiar to his feet; and as they went along, Scrooge looked here and there to find himself, but nowhere was he to be seen. #AChristmasCarol  #CharlesDickens
