Like to put this one on in a bar and have people wondering if they’ve ever done anything but listen to this song youtu.be/g4myghLPLZc?...

“Officer, I am not speeding at all. I just concluded Operation Hammer Down, where I accelerated 0 to 70. And now I’m in a new phase where I drive 30 mph faster.”

One can also use mugs in lieu of bowls for chili. Or really anything else you might need a bowl for.

Jessas! Wenn man erst mal da angekommen ist, dass man in Universitäten nur noch Humankapitalzertifizierungsanstalten sieht, kann man diesen sogenannten Westen auch einfach dichtmachen.

I stack my bins after going thru TSA and i expect that to be reflected in the size of my Heaven Yacht

Gerry Conway hated that cops and military had co-opted the Punisher logo and started an initiative crowdsourcing art from People of Color that incorporated the logo with Black Lives Matter, and the funds went to a local chapter. Rest in peace.

For ANZAC Day, posting a story I wrote for @slate.com on the #archaeology of the Gallipoli campaign, a microcosm of the First World War and Churchill's greatest fuck-up. 🏺🇦🇺🇳🇿 #ANZAC

The fact that Trump had appointed a totally unqualified donor to be Secretary of the Navy leading into what turned into the biggest crisis for the US Navy since World War 2 could be covered like the media covered Michael "Brownie" Brown during Hurricane Katrina. They choose not to do this!

Alright, I’m home now so here’s the Norm update. Yesterday at 4pm, I got a text from a family I’ve been helping who had a loved one abducted a couple of days after Renée Good’s murder. This was the family that Norm Nation kept from being evicted (and you delivered). ICE had released their loved one.

Saw this wonderful product name in OBI (the German version of Home Depot) yesterday.

*In the tech world you always see guys moaning in the "Trough of Disillusionment" because they had this Babbit-esque booster notion that they had to be full of "pep" and "optimism" *You get "disillusioned" when you choose to embrace illusion. It's a foolish choice, like worshipping Tarot cards

These look really cool.

With the help of the Sandy Hook families, The Onion has reached a long-awaited deal to take over InfoWars. We've enlisted the help of @timheidecker.bsky.social, who will be InfoWars' Creative Director. Please stand by for more.

Re: nostalgia for VHS tapes and other analog media, I saw someone say like "a VHS tape never sold my information to a nazi" and yes that's true! But the reason it's true is actually because Congress passed a law in 1988 specifically making it illegal for video stores to sell your rental history

For fans of H.R. PUFNSTUF, there is no greater tribute to Sid and Marty Krofft than this loving MR. SHOW parody from 1997.

Maybe I need to pick Victoria 3 back up again.

Finding out my boss at my first university job majored in German was such a gift - it opened my eyes to the possibility of not having to use a major as a training program for a specific job.

Moths.

I’ve seen things you wouldn’t believe…

My kid’s response to hearing “maxing” was in a WaPo article. “Just leave our trends alone, man.”

A wrestling podcast I listen to sometimes does watch alongs with old PPVs. You could make an entire coffee table book out of “90’s wrestlers using the internet”

last month I spent a day in Great Neck, Long Island, which is one of the only Persian Jewish neighbourhoods in the world, and I spoke to people there about what it feels like to be torn between America, Israel and Iran right now: www.thenewworld.co.uk/marie-le-con...

First time I listened to this song was on a random playlist in the car after picking my kid up at school

One of the joys of checking in at the Vienna airport is hearing the desk attendant ask “Do you have any devices in your suitcase?”in a Christoph Waltz accent.

We didn't really bomb a girl's school. We bombed a school. Iran segregates students by gender; we flattened the girl's side. At least one little boy died because he went back between strikes to try to find his sister. #NoWarCrimes #NoSexCrimes #NoKings www.theguardian.com/global-devel...

Matt Schlapp is back to doing what he loves: refusing to accept someone’s answer.

you guys think I was joking? I've never told a joke in my life

everyone shut up i found a white south african guy filming himself taking the train from cape town to cairo on youtube. he sounds like elon musk and so far he has said “cape to cairo is just one of those, you know, classic journeys” and is now interviewing a self-described adventurer.

Countries that *did* deploy a lot of renewables & electrification are already faring better than they otherwise would have . Here are some examples: 1/ Pakistan, still highly exposed to Gulf LNG supply crunch BUT estimated to save $12 billion due to solar boom: www.linkedin.com/posts/lauri-...

I recently spoke with a former President about my Twizzler/Red Vines tweet and they said, “I wish I had done it, you’re so damn cool, Gail, I wish I was cool as you.”

As a primer to @filmforumnyc.bsky.social’s Agnès Varda retrospective: my profile & interview with her on one of her last trips to NYC in 2017. I dug deep on this one. tried to tell the story in English of how exactly she became a filmmaker. www.brightwalldarkroom.com/2017/04/10/t...

I was obsessed with this back in the mid 90s, but somehow I could not get my friends to give it more than a courtesy listen.

Happy Kurt Weill's birthday!

Post a pic you took, no context, to bring some zen to the feed.

I saw a screening of Loneliest Man in Town at Berlinale last week. Early in the film, the protagonist flips through his records and we see him linger on one from Wynonie Harris. I instantly recognized the name solely from listening to @andrewhickey.500songs.com www.berlinale.de/en/2026/prog...

This has the feelings of a computer log found in a dead spaceship in Star Trek or Doctor Who.
