This was an unexpected collaboration between a young me and my younger brother. I love it now, but this happened a lot, and it was upsetting at the time. Any theories as to what's going on with this guy's hand? It looks like a gun at first, but then it doesn't.

39 celsius in Paris. That's 102 fahrenheit! With little AC anywhere. 43 celsius in Marseille. That's 109!! AKA why I never do summer book trips to France. Ugh. Stay safe, friends and colleagues.

It's #awkwardFamilyPhoto time! This has got to be the least smiley photo we ever took, AND my dad has a weak little mustache? I don't remember him ever having a mustache!

Trump has turned the White House into a 24/7 corruption operation. This is a national crisis. Trump thinks the public will stop paying attention. So I went to the Senate floor to call his bluff. I told the ENTIRE STORY of his 500 days of corruption. 1/ Here it is - in one🧵

"War on diversity" is a polite way of saying misogyny and white supremacy. For some reason, the NY Times keeps being polite to nazis. 🤷‍♂️

It's apparently siesta time for all three of our cats. #catsky

"But they'll just use 'AI'" - Then let them use "AI," and fucking boo them loudly and in public for doing so, anyone using "AI" should be fucking ashamed for paying a billionaire for words instead of an actual writer, plus the writing they get will be bland and boring. Pay a real fucking writer!

Let me guess. Was it these 6 who voted for lawlessness and torture? 👎🏻 John Roberts 👎🏻 Neil Gorsuch 👎🏻 Clarence Thomas 👎🏻 Samuel Alito 👎🏻 Brett Kavanaugh 👎🏻 Amy Coney Barrett Fascist traitors, all of them.

It turns out if you allow the head of a crime family to be POTUS, they'll actively destroy the justice system. BTW, notice how Trump loves to say "Biden crime family" so it weakens talk about his own family? And how he co-opted Obama's term "fake news"? And how he calls elections rigged and stolen?

"Let's all quit tomorrow."

Happy Summer Solstice, everybody! Also, Father's Day. #midsummer #litha #solstice

Still going through old boxes my dad left behind, I came across this gem. This was my idea of the ultimate cool kid when I was little. 😆

No, I'm not growing giant figs. That's just a really tiny lizard. 😍

Strange times with dust motes this morning.

What is @smatsto.bsky.social, and how has it blocked me three times recently? Some kind of bot, I presume?

For many Americans (myself included), 250 years of "freedom" doesn't mean a damn thing because it's only been 161 years since nearly a third of Texans were finally granted their inalienable right to liberty. And even then they weren't allowed to vote for a full century. Happy Juneteenth, everybody!

So freaking creepy. This Philip K. Dick quote comes to mind: "There will come a time when it isn't 'They're spying on me through my phone' anymore. Eventually, it will be 'My phone is spying on me'."

For the upcoming #Semiquincentennial, I'm going to be very judgy if anyone misspells this perfectly cromulent word or uses the vulgar populist alternative #America250. 🧐

The first episode is July 2nd! I know how I'm celebrating the Semiquincentennial! #America250 #Freedom250

"ADMINISTRATION REGISTERS RECORD GROWTH" wapo.st/4vWAPAW

Unbelievable how some people try to claim they're "not political" while attending Hitler's birthday party.

Hello, dear readers! Let me show you this incredible anthology edited by none other than the great @mothman13.bsky.social . You want this book. I know you do. And I most definitely want it. Just look at the fine list of contributors! Look at the art and visuals!

this may well be the defining joke of our era theonion.com/guy-who-suck...

Dear Duolingo, Please allow me to turn off this timer that keeps making me lose because I'm playing casually while doing other stuff. This is annoying as hell. Thank you.

Good enough to make me want to add alt text

I fucking hate this timeline. CERN, you did too much. Fix it!

"What do you rebuild in its place?" The East Wing, obviously! And restore the Rose Garden. And repair the front lawn. We need to do everything possible to undo every bit of damage Trump has done. He should only be memorialized in the same way the Holocaust is memorialized. Never again. ❌👑

Your periodic reminder that Bill Maher is and always has been a disingenuous piece of shit. "Now it’s just a big MAGA rally, this whole thing. Now it’s Trump and Lee Greenwood." It was always going to be a MAGA rally, obviously. Like the UFC fight. "Apolitical" in the US in 2026 means fascist. ❌👑

Cartoonishly brazen criming by Eric Trump. If this family were actually 𝘨𝘰𝘰𝘥 at crime, we wouldn't see so much of what they're doing. The fact that they being 𝘢𝘭𝘭𝘰𝘸𝘦𝘥 to keep going means these clowns are serving a purpose for bigger fish. Don't forget that when the Trump empire crashes soon. ❌👑

I had a dream last night involving a sky suddenly full of amazing UFOs/UAPs followed by the arrival of a huge population of peaceful human aliens. They dealt with our leaders to settle in legally, and the rest of us immediately became a permanent underclass. A depressing vision of things to come.

I'm going through some old photos, and damn, I was cool as hell back in like 2007.

I urge people to keep their guard up and be ready to fight. The mid-terms are NOT guaranteed. We have to fight voter suppression, gerrymandering intimidation, false claims, DOJ interference, and more. Check your registrations BEFORE voting. Spread the word.

If RFK hadn't been killed, his son wouldn't be the mess he is today. RFK's assassination was part of a wave of CIA-backed violence that basically defeated the counterculture and set social progress back generations. We're still feeling the effects.

Rubio said the UFC White House fight is a "gift" to the American people. We were FORCED to pay for that gift that nobody even wanted while destroying the White House grounds. That's some "gift." Fuck off, Little Marco.

I wrote about this during Trump's first term. It's no accident that Donald J. Trump is pretty much the worst human being you could possibly imagine. That's his function.

I keep seeing commercials where people don't know they have multiple accounts with different services. One guy said he has "three DoorDash accounts." Why would that even matter? Apparently, they have a premium version that charges $10 a month and is really scammy. 😑 This century is disappointing.

"The notion that weirdness is somehow at odds with the everyday and the domestic is confusing to us… We’re invested in a weirdness that coexists with and is layered over daily life more than we are in the arcane forms of separate otherworldly weirdness that characterize the Lovecraftian weird." 🧵

Hey, #writingCommunity, my friend and fellow dreampunk writer Carl Freeman (@gatekeeper0077.bsky.social) is looking for beta readers for his novel Faculty of Matter. It's a great read! It feels like classic cyberpunk but horrifyingly relevant for the world right now. #books #booksky #indieAuthors

Congratulations to all the Nebula Award winners and finalists! It has been an honor to be in your company. May Auntie Hera bless you all.
