Fishify a song "I kissed a gar"

Drops today: this week's ARB @newbooksnetwork.bsky.social podcast features host Nicholas Gordon in conversation with Andrew Bernstein, author of “Fuji: A Mountain In The Making” @princetonupress.bsky.social asianreviewofbooks.com/podcast-with...

Lilly Wachowski is my guest on the new ep of How Was your Week and we discuss the motion picture ZARDOZ and it's really special howwasyourweek.com @lillywachowski.bsky.social

It’s been two weeks since ICE took Yuanxin Zheng from his father. He is six years old. He’s still not home. This has to end.

I can't believe typefaces are part of the political discourse. My HOT HOT take as a font nerd: 1. Calibri is terrible but not because it is woke, 2. Times New Roman is fine when you aren't using it to be anti-woke, 3. I cannot believe they are trying to politicize either of these typefaces, but...

love to get lectured on the virtues of spartanism from the guy with the gold toilets

Chess, a famous game of random chance

Trump is their Franco; wrecking the economy, selling out his people to foreign fascists, a stumbling demented manchild supported by the rich and the theist fanatics and the ignorant.

I can’t believe how much of the Trump era is about solving problems that *don’t* exist while making all the problems that *do* exist, worse. There is no one who thinks the biggest problem with air travel right now is not having an area to do pull-ups.

every time I see 'SCOTUS' these days my entire muscular structure feels like it's trying to eject itself from my body can we please just go one fucking month w/o this bargain bin villain shit jfc

10/10 no notes.

Person who actually deserves a trophy is the artist who made the FIFA peace prize trophy look like everyone in the entire world holding their head in their hands out of secondhand embarrassment

Happy Friday, here's a 1680 frontispiece for the book The School of Venus, in which some very nice looking ladies are picking out some dildos.

Ilhan Omar rose from a single parent immigrant family where her dad drove a taxi to her current position. Trump is the kid of a racist wealthy slum landlord who headed multiple failed businesses. One of these people is the example of failed ambition and it's not her. What a racist piece of shit.

David Lynch's Dune premiered 41 years ago today!

A little bit of a movie nerd purchase, but I found this inflatable #RedOctober submarine that was sent to movie rental stores as a part of the promotional package. #90s

EARLY CAT: What that? HUMAN: A fish. You can eat them. EARLY CAT: Mine now. I need it. I need the fish. Without fish I die. Gimmie fish. HUMAN: But you're from the desert. How can you possibly- EARLY CAT: WOE. WOE FOR KITTY. HUMAN INFLICTS A THOUSAND WOES ON- HUMAN: God. Fine. Have it.

I genuinely thought this was parody for a moment.

This They Might Be Giants TONIGHT SHOW performance of "Birdhouse In Your Soul" from 1990 remains firmly lodged in my noggin thanks to the Tonight Show Band's full commitment and Doc Severinsen's incredible trumpeting... It took an already great song and made it transcendent.

Without saying Lord of the Rings, name a fantasy film.

I know that we are rightly talking about Hegseth and war crimes in terms of killing hors de combat, but we should also bear in mind that Counts 1 & 2 of the International Military Tribunal indicted the German leadership for a conspiracy against peace and waging wars of aggression.

Exactly 80 years ago tomorrow (Nov. 30, 1945), German submarine commander Heinz-Wilhelm Eck and two of his former subordinates on the U-852 were shot by Allies in Hamburg for killing the survivors of a ship they had sunk. Pete Hagueseth should be very worried. www.executedtoday.com/2009/11/30/1...

President Hernandez was serving 45 years in prison for a plot to distribute 400 tons of cocaine before Trump pardoned him. Meanwhile, Trump is murdering fishermen in small boats for allegedly smuggling far smaller amounts.

Strange how the ideology of the Minnesota assassin was pretty much dryly noted and dropped, not used as an excuse by politicians to blame half the country for the murder.

The fundamental thing to understand about this administration is the president is a grumpy retiree. He has no interest in working anymore. Which leads to him being pissed that he is getting asked a question, pissed he has to show up and work, the scheming viziers running the show, etc..

Post something random or you’ll have an awful December

If you're new to cooking or don't trust yourself to recognize a bad AI recipe, for the love on god, do not just use random recipes from random profiles. Find trustworthy sites and creators (Serious Eats, NYT Cooking, J. Kenji Lopez-Alt, Alton Brown) and search their archives for what you need.

Costs are up bigly, and this is what Trump has been focused on. Malicious clowns.

These posters for the South Korean stage production of Macbeth are the greatest thing ever? #art

Have you seen our dog? If not, you should, he's awesome! 'Hatch', a terrier/whippet cross, was found outside the carpenter's cabin, and was the ship's ratter. He was also a good boy. Yes, he was. #Museum30 #animal Find out more - maryrose.org/meet-the-cre...

You might not think you needed to see Kate Bush dressed as a bat today, but you were wrong.

My very first cat, Kisa Lísa. From the streets of Reykjavik, she became a beloved family cat. She's quite the legend in the family, and now there is a book about her life for those who are interested and able to read Icelandic. www.penninn.is/is/book/kott... #cats #caturday #catsofbluesky #catsky

Chuck Schumer didn't endorse Mamdani and probably didn't even vote for him and Mamdani called Trump a tyrant and a despot and Trump is laughing it up with the communist in the Oval Office while he puts sombreros on videos of Schumer and calls him a "Palestinian" as an insult.

❗️RETWEET if you stand with President 🇺🇦Zelensky!

Hello Friday. One of Sylvia Plath’s sketches.

ICYMI!!!!!! Great episode!!!!

This mural has gone up in Kingston, ostensibly for Christmas but AI has ensured it's actually to celebrate the return of our dark lord Cthulhu
