This is why we fight.

Not sure the folks at NBC/Peacock thought this one through

I ignored the game going on over my head because it was lime green and white vs white and lime green but now I realize it is in fact the big local game, the tv is just toast.

Cancel Christmas aka Blackout Black Friday is gaining steam fast as Americans stare at the reality of fascism and the poverty it brings with it. Families torn apart by ICE have already had their holidays cancelled without choice. “The time for fantasy is over”

Remember folks. The original bluesky ethos by us bluesky elders (apparently I count?) is block and move on. Don't quote dunk, don't pick fights. Block, and move on. This is what made this site unpalatable to the right early on, and we can continue to make it unpalatable to them.

All you have to do is look at the first post of all of these accounts to see THEY ARE HERE TO TROLL. Don’t take the bait. bsky.app/profile/did:...

go through their following & block those too. looks like a simultaneous push across agencies (including the white house) going live on this platform. first account they followed is an account for charlie kirk…which has never posted…

block this shit

block this shit

I’m more of a Swiftish.

Where am I? I’m at the government shutdown. I’m at the Taylor Swift album release. I’m at the combination government shutdown and Taylor Swift album release 🕺🪩

Somehow I don’t think we’ll be working out “Actually Romantic” on the remix.

Some of y’all never saw the White Diamonds commercial and it shows. #thesehavealwaysbroughtmeluck

BREAKING: much-maligned pop star who has brought insane joy to millions by continuing to be pretty okay with her whole deal got some good footballman dick, wants to have his babies. Can’t hear Charli XCX over all the money, football dick, and screaming fans. Swedes involved. No notes.

It’s cool I wasn’t planning a once in a lifetime trip to the biggest deal of national parks this weekend. Like an idiot.

I went out of my way to watch the previous Super Bowl halftime for the first time in years and it looks like I’m on track to do it again.

I, too, yearn for a glorious past but 2002? Who picked 2002?? Everything was already fully, publicly going to hell.

If I get one more e-mail today about new AI features on a work application I’m walking out.

If they're going to try and retcon Charlie Kirk, then we should try to retcon him too.

Dutch late night TV has its take

🚨🚨🚨 ProPublica reporting job alert 🚨🚨🚨 Where: The Midwest (Illinois, Michigan, Missouri, Wisconsin, Ohio, Indiana, Minnesota). What: Accountability reporting! Salary: $90K-$125K job-boards.greenhouse.io/propublica/j...

Nothing quite like getting a birthday reminder for someone who died last year. Happy 50th, L-Dog. Wherever you are I know you’re happy.

Ok @sesmith.lol I got one for you!

south korea is reacting to its citizens being illegally detained and tortured the way i thought other countries would react to its citizens being illegally detained and tortured

I have two cats and the way one of them will wander around yelling at us when the other is trapped in the basement is adorable, especially when her sister does not ever return that favor.

[the shooter is unidentified] the left must be purged with the sword [the shooter is, again, a compulsive masturbator who loved Hitler] I believe it was pascal who said that the heart has reasons that reason may not know

Just to be blunt, if you want Wired and 404 and The Verge to employ reporters who understand the memes on bullet casings and can connect them to gaming culture while having the legal and support resources to deal with waves of harassment when we do it… you have to subscribe and pay for the work

guys, we have a tone shift

Still have Covid, what did I miss?

Or used a piece of tape to write-protect the floppy.

It’s great that the updated Covid vaccine became available in NY the same week I got Covid for the third time

Reporting live from the Covid front: still sucks balls.

Oh right, also being sick on the weekend season.

New one for the dream analyst: worked at a donut shop run by children who set really high expectations with no sense of urgency, prep, or how money works. Customers came for the cuteness, stayed to yell at me, the adult in the room with no power. What can it meeeeeean?

"Welcome to this tiny fifth-floor Airbnb, your home for the next four days in a major European city. Can you escape without incurring additional fees for cleaning or damage? Let the games begin."

Labeling whoever you wanted in the Middle East as a terrorist to justify a drone strike is bad enough. Now we’re just gonna call whoever we want a narcoterrorist(much greyer area) in our backyard to justify nuking their ass from orbit, and play the snuff film for cheering morons

Going to Costco on a Saturday during the game season is BACK BABY!!

You’ve been kidnapped. The characters from the last TV show you watched are trying to rescue you. Who’s coming to save you? I’m not far enough along to know if this is a good thing but if the kidnapper is an abusive man I think I’ll be alright in the end.

It feels like the tide has turned against AI but that’s just my echo chamber isn’t it? Still, something has shifted.

"My bright hues are flashy for a reason—they’re an emergency flare for physicians: Hey, Doc! Maybe don’t dismiss this woman’s chest pain as 'just stress.'"

Awful lot of stupid technology just lying around these days to excuse just writing “speaking in foreign language” in the captions.

those damned outdoor pigs can't keep getting away with this

If you have a complex chronic illness, you're probably familiar with the experience of a doctor telling you that your test results are normal, while your body feels like it's full of noodles and static electricity. As a linguist, M Corvi is looking for words to measure sickness. bit.ly/45a6lj2

Whoever put Velvet Goldmine on Criterion this month is my hero.

This is where I post from

this made me laugh so much
