we don’t say “he died” we say “he speaks with the mitches”

Lindsey Graham was like, that bitch McConnell isn’t going to steal MY thunder. Sashay away forever, lady G

I SCREAMED, oh my god, unmute this now

🚨 NEW from @ipsosintheuk.bsky.social Britain backs Binface 🚨 When asked who they would prefer win the Clacton by-election... 33% say Count Binface 21% say Nigel Farage 32% say neither 13% are undecided

All the greatest hits.

caring about victims of sexual assault is a feminine-coded concern, and there are some left wing men who seem like they'd prefer being called a misogynist by a woman on the left than a betacuck soy boy by a man on the right

Sarah Mansfield MP has made a little book about The Very Hungry Data Centre

I think the Platner thing hit me so hard bc it was one of the most protracted, widespread acts of misogynist gaslighting from my own side that I've seen. We were presented with an obvious violent scumbag who was constantly lying (badly, might I add) and told we were crazy for not loving him

I don’t understand how people can run for office knowing they have insane baggage and/or crimes. Like I spent the entire campaign expecting AIPAC to somehow dig up my middle school livejournal fanfic account. I prepared my family for it. I’m still amazed it didn’t happen.

I am so fucking tired of woman having to stand on a national stage and tear their hearts open and pour their trauma out in front of the entire country. And still not be believed. Or be told it doesn’t matter because we need her assaulter. I’m so tired of it.

Happy America Day.

LOL, well, damn. Okay, Merriam-Webster.

And the same for authors and books

I'll summarize this: Mamdani asked NYers to keep air conditioning at 78 degrees. A wave criticism hit online. A MSNBC broadcast pointed out the US Department of Energy recommends that 78 degree figure. Immediately after, the US Department of Energy deleted 6,000 web pages related to energy saving.

Fun thing about Weird Al: he sought and received permission from every artist he ever parodied, even passing on opportunities when he didn’t get the okay. AI companies did the opposite. Of course he wouldn’t work with them. variety.com/2026/biz/new...

I had to comment again with this

“By the thinnest of margins, the extremely corrupt U.S. Supreme Court didn’t illegally overturn the Constitution in its entirely. Clearly this means the system is working as intended, so I will continue to do basically nothing to fight the rise of fascism in this country.” - Schumer

There's a lot of ppl scolding those of us who rmbr the same ppl telling us Roe would never be overturned. Republicans never gave up on that & they won't give up on birthright citizenship. We're not celebrating b/c we know w/o an actual opposition party to stop them this is a Pyrrhic victory at best

Right now Dems want to accept this "victory" as the excuse they need to say SCOTUS isn't as corrupt as they are & dodge the demand for expanding the court. Our current Dems care more about optics than the goddamn constitution So no I'm not celebrating this. It's a band-aid on a goddamn amputation

5-4 for what it explicitly says in the constitution is incredible. They were this close to undoing the civil war entirely. bsky.app/profile/mjsd...

Here on the last day of Pride, let's be super clear: there's no LGB without the T

omggggg.... this is so funny. catering to a fujoshi and queer audience would literally print money...

It’s very straightforward: I don’t need to pay devs anymore because I can use generative AI, which admittedly we know players don’t like. Fortunately that’s not an issue because nobody can afford consoles anymore, because of inflated prices due to AI. Let’s invest in AI. - a very clever businessman

Brilliant 🔥

Also not the biggest concern, but the situation Josh is accurately describing is a compound nightmare because the lack of employers means young creatives aren't learning anything about the craft from veterans of their industries. It's all atomized. And knowledge loss is thus massive :(

Everyone talks about how it's a problem the president is an 80-year-old senile racist who makes shit up, but let's not forget that Sam Alito is a 76-year-old senile racist who also makes shit up.

MAKE YOUR VOICE HEARD Trump directed his Postmaster General to INTERFERE WITH YOUR RIGHT TO VOTE Pursuant to an Executive Order the USPS proposed a rule where they’ll REFUSE to carry mail-in ballots from certain states YOU HAVE UNTIL JULY 2 TO OBJECT You can do so HERE: apwu.org/news/submit-...

The Democratic Party freaking out that Democratic Party candidates are winning is the most Democratic Party thing ever.

Mildly amused to see people grimly warning that the blood-dimmed tide of populist unrest has swept aside all bonds of civil government and unleashed the power of the Mob on an innocent and unwitting nation because the outgoing New York City Comptroller won a congressional primary.

When I visited the Academy Museum in LA last month, they had a Bong Joon-ho exhibit, which included an entire room covered floor-to-ceiling in his storyboards for PARASITE. If you saw this and still thought "yeah, just let AI do that," you shouldn't be watching movies, let alone making them.

Starmer’s resignation is a warning, but we’ve run this experiment at home. Sinema, Golden, and Fetterman made the same bet: that poll-tested moderation is a safe harbor. All saw their support crater. In a moment like this, tacking right isn’t the safe play, it’s the thing that sinks you.

Pay talented creative people to do creative work. Don't steal from talented creative people to put them out of work. And don't partner with, patronize, or otherwise support those who would choose to do so. We all have to choose the kind of world we want to live in.

What the fuck is it good for? Im asking sincerely. Medical people say its shit for diagnosing, its utter garbage for creative fields, it cannot teach and hallucinates false answers, programmers have to fix its code half the time, businesses find it doesn't help productivity and it causes psychosis.

one anecdote: I was searching for a link to one of my old papers on Google, and the automated Gemini summary attributed all of my lab's work to my husband

Methinks the integration of AI has made Microsoft Word's spellcheck a lot dumber. But of course they are allowed to make company decisions at their own 🤌 discrezioni.

Singaporean artist Leia Ham reimagined LotR as Tale of the Middle Kingdom, since Chinese name for China (Zhōngguó) means "The Middle Kingdom." Her concept art includes the Fellowship, armors, buildings like Bag End, props like Aragorn's banner and Fellowship brooches, and more. #TolkienTrewsday

The NO FAKES Act is supposed to address harmful AI replicas. But as drafted, it would make it easier to suppress satire, commentary, and political speech. www.eff.org/deeplinks/2...

Man. All I want from this life is to make stuff. For my friends to be able to make stuff. For us all to live comfortably & not stress or worry about the world ending. I want to have the luxury of being able to do nothing, & be useless sometimes. Life is already so hard. We gotta lift each other up.

they’re putting a Disney fast pass on the strait like it’s the line to space mountain

Ian McKellen says he imagined destroying Mar-a-Lago for Avengers Doomsday www.theguardian.com/film/2026/ju...

It was just then that Lindsey realized that he was about to swoon with a mighty powerful case of the vapors and asked his burly new friends to ferry him to the nearest motel room. “Post haste, boys!”

While I didn’t quite get this done for MerMay, it’s always a pleasure drawing merfolk. And thanks for the amazing commission prompt, K! I didn’t know Art Nouveau Stucky Mermen was something I needed in my portfolio. #stucky | #mermen | #steverogers | #buckybarnes

The violence in Belfast is a reminder of something I don’t want to take for granted: The fascists here hoped the response to the depredations of ICE would be similar, with people turning in or attacking their neighbors. That it was the very opposite is worth remembering in this season of despair
