I’m not crying about this you’re crying about this

Star Trek has been associated with being the inspiration for many things but I'm not sure many folks realize the impact it made on endangered humpbacks. The awareness from this movie possibly saved them from extinction.

If I were the Edmund Fitzgerald, I would personally not have sank, but maybe that’s just me

Just a reminder that the main hatchway doesn’t give in until 7pm *central* time. Don’t embarrass yourselves. We’re still at “too rough to feed ya.”

It’s the 50th anniversary of the sinking of the SS Edmund Fitzgerald. 🫡🫡🫡

"Does anyone know where the love of God goes when the waves turn the minutes to hours" but about responding to that one client's email

Damn, the best really do lack all conviction, while the worst are full of passionate intensity.

DOES ANYONE KNOW WHERE THE LOVE OF GOD GOES

Calling my senators this morning to tell them I appreciate their No votes but this was transparently a coordinated effort and a colossal mistake, and I want to see Schumer’s leadership challenged.

Happy There Is A Circulatory System Walking Through The Kitchen Day to all who celebrate.

A solemn 50th anniversary of the wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald to you all “We are holding our own.” -Captain Ernest M. McSorely in the final radio message

Remember we’re all listening to “The Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald” by Gordon Lightfoot at 7pm tonight in remembrance of the Edmund Fitzgerald

50 years ago today, the Edmund Fitzgerald, a 729-foot ore boat, sank in the Great Lakes. Being from Michigan this story was discussed regularly at home, school and work www.npr.org/2025/11/06/n...

Welp I hope my Illinois friends are picking someone good to primary the shit out of Durbin. It’s time for his senate career to end.

Boys want one thing and it’s a federal unicameral parliamentary system with a proportional electoral system

Nobody: Absolutely nobody: My 8yo: “Is God bald?”

Church wall update: still sisal

She said, "I'm fine, I'm okay," cover up your tremblin' hands There's indecision when you know you ain't got nothin' left Well, the good times never stay And the cheap thrills always seem to fade away When will we fall down? When will we fall? When will we fall down?

Remember. No matter where you are in life, you're never too far away from a mossy haunted cottage in the woods, brimming with dark malice. Take comfort in that.

SERIOUSLY. 1. We can usually tell when you're lying. 2. Referring you to organizations that can actually help you IS the help. 3. I take confidentiality seriously which is why I am not telling any of the many, MANY stories of times that I have helped people & it has eventually gone horribly wrong.

I sure hope the gales of November don’t come early this year

Butternut squash and sage scone from Hell Yeah Gluten Free bakery in Atlanta

it turns out there’s a book at the intersection between The Last Unicorn, Uzumaki, Ghost Wall, and The Golden Bough, and it’s Mythago Wood — @deaconblues1979.bsky.social was right!!!!!!

Why the fuck is this bar playing the Harvard/Columbia game?

Hell yeah drag his ass

Performative decency is actually *so* important for this reason. It tricks the 10% of ghouls into thinking that there are only 1% of ghouls. And it makes the 30% of people that don't care one way or another follow the mostly decent crowd

Someone please explain to me why the 4 Non Blondes have crept back into the pop culture landscape. We shouldn’t have to endure this. We have paid our dues. Everyone should have to watch the music video from the 90s so they can appreciate the full horror of what they are doing.

Ok so basically the main thing you need to understand about Gamera is that he’s a friend to all children

In case anyone hasn’t been paying close attention for a super long time, the reactionary conservative Christian pundits that the NYT and other legacy media keep platforming are like the same half dozen usual suspects that have been at this for two decades.

I used to think Vikings were cool like 20 years ago but then dipshits on the internet ruined them

“Vending machines are nicer than claw machines, right? Because you have better luck.” - my 8yo

heads up to anyone who holds trans kids near: amy harmon from the nyt is searching for and having a hard time finding people to interview to find out exactly what trans kids are doing when their care is limited or cut off, and for purposes of community safety, please shut the fuck up around her.

I’m actually kind of resentful that every time I get off a plane I have to think about Miranda Lambert’s song “Baggage Claim” because it isn’t very good.

A couple of Big Red One E2s in this airport

For years, but especially for the past year, Democrats have been in thrall to the idea that they need to chase an imagined median voter, and adopt that voter’s positions. Mamdani’s victory shows another way: hold principles, and persuade people to share them.

The full weight of western capitalism is about to laser focus on NYC. The robber barons failed to win and will panic. They will sabotage NYC because the system cannot allow Mamdani's term to be successful. They cannot allow people to believe things can be better. Your job now is to hold the line. 1/

Wow it turns out the entire country is not permanently reactionary because Trump won an election by 1.5%

I’m going to let you in on a little secret. Sometimes someone posts a bad take, or a dumb take, or a really wrong take, or a take that’s just engagement bait. And you don’t have to engage with it! You don’t have to reply. It’s honestly okay to just let those sail by.

My 14yo asked if I would judge him for liking Linkin Park and I said yes, absolutely

I've been informed that this claim came from a troll impersonating Caroll, and *not* Carroll himself. As for where the real PJC stands on AI, I don't know, but at least he's not going around saying AI is better than him and other human magicians.

This is so delicious it should be against the law

Methinks that in looking at things spiritual, we are too much like oysters observing the sun through the water

Too much political talk this morning, let's see how role-playing games are doing—(immediately blocks three people)—okay back to politics

Drinking black coffee from a mug and listening to Electric Wizard so loud it rattles my ribcage while I drive to work.

My children write to their tooth fairy and their tooth fairy writes back #Cobweb
