Idc about any high minded analysis, the Mamdani thing is funny

Adams is already crashing out bsky.app/profile/jben...

New from my distributor I foolishly read on this, my supposed week off. @ironcircuscomics.bsky.social does a lot of library business. I'm dreading that January statement. Gang, if you have ever wanted an Iron Circus title, now would be a wonderful time for you to grab one. 💀 store.ironcircus.com

Someone do a wellness check on JD Vance and maybe take him to Pottery Barn’s annual couch sale

if you could keep Mamdani around the White House to talk to him all day you could probably get him to do a bunch of good shit, the problem is that after this meeting the next guy in the room is Stephen Miller

Zohran flip your hair again we need healthcare get him to give us healthcare.

peak Dem Party

socialism + rizz is a tough combo to beat

Have a great weekend, everyone!

Meanwhile Don Jr is in an oubliette somewhere

Trump meeting is even funnier when you picture JD Vance getting redder and redder as he watches

And by days we mean daaaaaaays. It could take forever to find and download all those special tracks off limewire and kazaa.

Based on what I've heard about how Mamdani charmed Adams, I am totally unsurprised that he managed the same with Trump. It is genuinely not that hard to charm ego monsters, if charm is in your toolkit and you can manage you ego for an hour

big bugs bunny getting elmer fudd to marry him vibes in the white house currently i see

This guy is never beating the allegations that he will always repeat whatever the last thing is someone told him

a post about Psychopomp in 2026 please read and share thank you very much

yesterday, the Tournament of Books* dropped the 2026 long list. I will now tell you what these books would be about, based on cover and title, if they were romance novels instead of LitFic.

Do NOT license your voice to ElevenLabs. Their highest-paid actor made $30k last year. Sounds a lot, but that’s from 1.2 bn paid uses - $0.000025 per job. ElevenLabs charge 20 cents per 1,000 words. So they’re making at least 8,000 times what their artists are. www.theguardian.com/culture/2025...

This is straight up embarrassing and a waste of time. My taxes theoretically pay legislators to govern, not to vote on ill-informed op eds. (Also if this is another iteration of everyone stroking out over Mamdani, this New Yorker is sick of it)

@bsky.app I will pay you fifty dollars American to eliminate the discover tab. Think about it

um holy cow?!?! IT HAD TO BE HIM is in the New York Times Book Review?!?!

I used to work at a suburban newspaper. Every week there were school superintendents exposed as embezzlers, police captains racking up DUIs, county officials doing favors for relatives' businesses. All that is less visible now, and the absence of shame leads to normalization.

ok so a cool thing I haven't posted about but can finally shout from the rooftops is..... ✨HOUSE OF HARKNESS IS COMING OUT IN PRINT!!✨ It's out next summer from Graphix/Scholastic, and I cannot *wait* and!! You can preorder it right now >> 💫 bookshop.org/p/books/hous...

My favorite thing On Here lately are all the randos posting about how much they hate AI, how it degrades skills, and is copyright theft...but also have an AI avatar or profile banner.

Thank you for your generosity - also, the shares work! Please, could we rally and close this up? I know there are a lot of fundraisers, but we've been at this *8 months* for a Black woman owned small press. We can do this! Today, even, with a rally! 💚 Link to share: ko-fi.com/africantrans...

Jennifer English realizing she's a lesbian and falling in love with one of her mocap directors (Aliona Baranova) over the course of making BG3 and seeing all the queer folks embracing Shadowheart and the impact the game had is genuinely one of the best stories in game production in a long time

Hey Dan, are you still eager and aligned to work with Donald Trump when it comes to antisemitism?

imagine knowing literally anything about Haiti and deciding to try this

Well this 2,600-year-old clay letter was a journey. It comes from the archive of a goldsmith named Nabû-zeru-iddin in the heart of ancient Assyria. We’ve got someone left on read, a lawsuit, a mean step-mom, and people who get drunk and steal silver.

Nearly every post-Sinners movie people keep saying is the best movie of the year, I end up making this 🤨 face as they make their case

Wanna send this to the school librarian listserv I'm on and say "I FUCKING TOLD YOU."

America 2025.

'Iran’s capital must be moved because the country “no longer has a choice,” President Masoud Pezeshkian said on Thursday in remarks carried by state media, warning that severe ecological strain has made Tehran impossible to sustain' #Iran 🇮🇷

Here, listen: when the President calls a female journalist “piggy” in a scrum, maybe you planned on asking about the economy, or whatever… But the story is now “the President called a female journalist piggy.” You asking a follow-up isn’t just defending her, it’s following the story.

Thank you so much to everyone who's shared & donated for your generosity. The fundraiser's at 84% to Archita's goal and support has slowed a lot. She'd be most grateful if people keep sharing & giving so she can reach her goal & get some security in this terrible time.

NEW: The exodus of corrections officers from federal prisons to ICE comes amid shortages of critical supplies, from food to personal hygiene items, for both staff and inmates. It threatens to make the already grim conditions in these prisons even worse.

I would like to attend this masterclass with N.K. Jemisin but 50$ USD is not affordable for me. Scholarships appear to be only for folks in the Philadelphia area… so, I’m asking the community for help. It’s a luxury, but i know id learn a lot. ko-fi.com/soniasulaiman/

they are older than bones, trees, and the Atlantic Ocean by orders of magnitude that don't actually make sense

"Record numbers of overseas-trained doctors are quitting the UK, leaving the NHS at risk of huge gaps in its workforce, with hostility towards migrants blamed for the exodus" Slow clap to the anti-immigrant rhetoric

I'm quote tweeting not as a dunk, but there's an influencer who got offered a free IV drip and as a result has been dealing with the flesh eating bacteria for years now. A lot of these medi-spas are not well regulated and opening your arm to them has real infection risks.

Coming around to the “we need to bring back shame” argument

Goddamn dude, just go ahead knock 25 percent off my 401k and get on with it, I can't take much more of this.

Absolutely incredible; after shooting Marimar Martinez 5 times and arresting her on claims that she rammed them and pulled a gun, prosecutors have now moved to dismiss ALL criminal charges against her and her codefendant.
