the point of science fiction is not to accurately predict the future and nailing it does not make a book more or less valuable as a work of art. however. snow crash really nailed how fundamentally unserious this would be

Don't you dare put that baby in pelican mouth.

You want to watch this short interview w/ the last fez maker in Cairo. Absolutely incredible story - he’s using the exact same tools used by the ottoman era founders of the business because they can’t find replacements. Also learn the very politicized history of the fez. youtu.be/KYPXGqtacpw?...

A fun fact about McCarthyism is that just two and a half years after he was condemned and censured, Sen. Joseph McCarthy drank himself to death at 48. Fevers break. Petty tyrants fall. Censorship and persecution drive good people to stand together and fight back.

HARDEST PHOTO OF 2025 JUST DROPPED

"macrohard" jesus fucking christ

Square-Enix scanned the original Chrono Trigger production artworks and made a video containing very very close-up shots of them. an opportunity to see Toriyama linework/colorwork in such fine detail is a real treasure www.youtube.com/watch?v=gDI_...

[writing the constitution] Benjamin Franklin: Write down "no dumb fucks as president" Alexander Hamilton: Stop saying that Benjamin Franklin: I'm tellin' you. You're gonna regret not writing that down

Chaos: Hey Slaanesh, did you corrupt Primarch Fulgrim yet? Slaanesh: Yeah, boss. Made him a giant snake monster, just like you asked. Chaos: I asked you to make him real fuckin sexy. Slaanesh: Just like you asked.

it's so funny to see America's health insurance companies be like "look. If there's one thing we love it's denying you care. but we ran the numbers - and we cannot BELIEVE we're saying this - and it's cheaper for us to just pay for the vaccines than deal with you going to the ER."

me, age 15: conservatism seems like a fundamentally evil belief system me, age 21: actually it is more complicated than that, things are very complicated and everyone has their own way of seeing things. i am very smart me, age 3x: no i was right the first time nvm

the only other instance of government consolidation of news corporations is (of course) South Korea under the Chun Doo-hwan martial law rule. in November 1980, Chun revoked broadcast licenses of several TV networks and forced their merger into KBS. he did the same with newspapers and radio networks

my third complaint is that zuck should go to the hague for pivoting the world to video

realized I gave myself an opportunity for me to share one of my favorite articles of all time www.theverge.com/c/24070570/i...

1. the shift from majority desktop to majority mobile/device internet usage changed online culture from one of creation/communication to one of consumption/commentary (keyboard theory) 2. the supplanting of forums/blogs by socmed/discords and overall ephemerality in non-anon spaces is bad. imo.

I sub to defector, hellgate, and aftermath and hope to add 404 to the list! highly recommend. what if... writing and reporting were good AND the journalists got supported directly

truly I am the world's sleepiest sheepy

thinking about how much I've appreciated @cherubae.bsky.social for the last 19 years, always there with the cow seed in my time of cow need. I had the pages for hmfomt printed out I referenced them so much. post related to how I'm about to download sosgb

I am biased but I don’t think there is a better website on the internet today than TheOnion.com.

I signed the Harper's letter to show I was brave enough to stand up to the left on free speech. But I've decided that I'm not brave enough to stand up to the right about it.

He's too dumb to not make this blazingly obvious to even the most checked-out median voter

HAPPENING NOW: 11 lawmakers have been arrested by DHS on the tenth floor of 26 Federal Plaza after trying to gain access for over an hour.

I wrote something about respectability in dress over on Twitter. The topic is nuanced for me, so unfortunately the post had to be long. Since Bluesky (reasonably) has character limits, I can't easily import the text here. So I'm including screenshots, if you would like to read it.

I gave my heart and soul to that place. Built entire sections for journalists pushed out of their home countries. When the writer I hired, Jamal Khashoggi was murdered by Saudi Arabia, they paraded me around as a symbol for press freedom. I put MY LIFE on the line to defend journalism and WaPo.

"did you hear Karl Rove and John Yoo went on the record today against the current ad--" You bolt awake by the coursing Amnok River. it is 1388 AD. you are General Yi Songgye, and you changed your mind about invading Manchuria. you will return and seize the capital city Gaeggyeong. Goryeo must burn.

there are so many little sight gags in this one in addition to the excellence of the piece as a whole. can't wait for the rest

david frum? david fucking frum?!

great news! you're not actually seeing karl rove, john yoo, and david frum criticize the administration's lawlessness more stridently than dem leadership. you, reader, were infected with rabies by a brown bat 36 hours ago and this is all just the virus working its way through your nervous system
