Hello, I made you a feed of your cats watching the Artemis II splashdown bsky.app/profile/did:...

omg astronauts made it all the way to the dang moon and then all the way home and now they can't get the satellite phone to work and NASA is basically like "hey okay but did you press the right button okay so just a sec we'll call you back" and I'm 100% convinced they're calling tech support

Hard not to be jealous of anyone bobbing gently the Pacific with three friends and no signal right now.

It is delightful that the tense space adventure has turned into an IT help desk call

Yep. I've seen a lot of posts that basically go 'whole world, watching Artemis and cheering, except Gen X in the fetal position shaking'.

I'm moonscrolling

Americans will do almost anything to avoid using the metric system

I love this photo of astronaut Christina Koch looking back at Earth from Artemis II. She's the first woman to see the full sphere of our beautiful planet. Welcome home to the crew, and thank you for reminding us of all we can discover together.

*reaches out to other silently freaking out Gen X folks*

whoever is responsible for the is headline should be fired.

Daily bunny no.3284 is up late again

I remember when the very serious article writers were telling me that Eric Adams was the wise adult future of the Democratic Party and now he's Albanian

We've reached the point that they're using the Epstein files to cover up Iran

The Twin Cities hit 'em with the inverse fakey Lysistrata!

Okay this isn’t really happening anymore so I can tell you how l had “internal ICE sources”: the 3000 very stir-crazy ICE agents were all going wild on Minneapolis Tinder. Local girls would match with them and string them along for intel. They loved to brag about what they were doing all day

“Everybody hates us, what should we do?” “The only thing that will get people back on our side. An armed overthrow of the Pope.”

my best guess is that a Trumpian Pentagon official, high on his own supply as they all are, thought "get your boss to play ball or we will do an Avignon on him" would genuinely intimidate AN 80-YEAR-OLD CARDINAL FROM FRANCE, which is perhaps the funniest thing anyone has ever done at the Pentagon

this whole thing is very much like being locked in a room with a guy with a grenade who keeps being like IM GONNA DO IT IM GONNA PULL THE PIN and then is like “actually nah” and then everyone sighs but you’re still locked in the same room with the same guy and he’s still holding the same grenade

Gen X collectively reliving Challenger, Columbia and Cold War nuclear holocaust anxiety all in the same week is a fucking lot, y'all.

Exactly - we cannot and should not have to live this way.

Do horses want cake? We conducted an investigation into statements published by @bencollins.bsky.social in the print edition of @theonion.com.

The New York Times deleted Trump’s “open the fuckin’ strait” line to make him look less insane Their write-up falsely says his post says only “Tuesday will be Power Plant Day, and Bridge Day, all wrapped up in one, in Iran. There will be nothing like it!!!” and “Praise be to Allah”

This is an actual post. This is not funny. This is beyond desperate. This is a deeply unwell man who doesn’t belong anywhere near the levers of power. Every member of his cabinet and Congress is complicit in not demanding his removal now.

Why aren’t we hearing more about this?

Keep going. Save yourself.

Trying to get news that might be bad out of the Pentagon is a lot like trying to get Epstein files from DOJ.

Also Macron, speaking for many, has this explanation: "When you want to be serious, you don’t go around saying the opposite every day of what you just said the day before. And perhaps you shouldn’t talk every day.”

This is worth your time to read all the way through, though it’s preeeeeeetty dark

I had to draw this cause it makes me very weepy 💖 #sailormoon #artemisii #fanart

We used to have actual journalists....

I don’t think I realized I had any latent Challenger trauma until right about now My kid’s like “neat!” and I’m like 🫣

Yeah that’s cool

We choose to go to the moon, not because it is easy but because you've seen the other shit this country spends tax money on. At least going to the moon is cool.

This is what social media is meant to be about.

LMAO THERE COULD BE NO CLEARER INDICATOR THAT BLUESKY IS FOR OLD PEOPLE Remember to take your blood pressure meds today, peepaws and meemaws

What an incredibly obtuse thing for a writer to say. Whether or not you’re deliberately injecting some overt Message, your worldview suffuses your narrative. It can’t not.

They Know What "Wrong Place, Wrong Time" Means Right-wing media has a formula: take a common phrase, pretend it means something monstrous, and pound away until a scandal exists. They just did it to a Chicago alderwoman. open.substack.com/pub/readtpa/...

This is very sad. Immigration agents have arrested hundreds of thousands of immigrants. Left behind are their dogs, cats, bunnies & chickens. Many of these homeless pets are consigned to the streets. In MN, an animal-services agency recorded a 38% increase in stray, seized & relinquished cats & ⬇️

'hey what are you up to over there? wow thats pretty cool.'

"Mistakenly" is doing a lot of heavy lifting here.

I march because the ghost of my great-grandmother Stephania who came over from Poland and built a life here would slap me up beside the head if I wasn't doing everything I could to stop this. I have other immigrants from that same generation but she's the only one I remember - she died when I was 6

OH MY HEART...the Oberlin Luddites Reject "The Year of AI Exploration"! 💚

thanks trump, you miserable war criminal

DOJ is now in the position of having made arguments to the court based on the information they got from ICE that ICE is now pretending they never said. They have to navigate this carefully, because until the court says so, they can't actually reveal those discussions with ICE's lawyers.

According to documents filed this morning by the U.S. Attorney for the Southern District of NY, ICE has been lying for a year — not only to the public, but to the courts and to prosecutors — about being authorized to make arrests at 26 Federal Plaza and other immigration courts. (1/2)

hijackings stopped post 9/11 not because of TSA but because the crisis calculus changed from "save everyone on the plane" to "save everyone the plane might kill" reinforced cockpit doors and an "all flights continue to their destination no matter what" policy mostly ended hijacking attempts

what appears to have happened is that Trump has fixated on the SAVE Act as a magic “get out of losing the midterms free” button (it’s extremely bad! but no, it would not do that) and basically doesn’t want to do a deal unless that gets passed instead Dems get “we can blame Trump for airport lines”

The Trump administration sure sucks at everything. Greetings from the TSA pre check line at Orlando MCO with @julioanta.bsky.social

everything is more inconvenient and expensive, nothing works anymore, goons might invade your city and kidnap you or your neighbors, and there’s a loud asshole forcing you to pay attention to him at all times

If you believe you see ICE at any Chicago area airports this week (🚬), please message us anonymously on Signal at unraveled.66
