The X-men make Wolverine put on a blazer and teach kids about Gettysburg, The Inhumans would open an AI private school in Florida that costs every tax payer 1,800 dollars in vouchers

Classicist here to inform you all that this is ancient Greek for summoning a cat

Neat!

Happy Pride 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️

Second unit cameraman for a UCLA student documentary, but STILL! Today I learned! www.imdb.com/title/tt0196...

MOVES WILL NOT BE BUSTED MORRIS DON'T WANT TO KNOW YA (KNOW YA) EVERYBODY WILL NOT DA - Sorry, sources are telling me that everybody may yet dance, now.

burning another precinct so when the smoke turns white we’ll know a new police chief has been selected

Pshaw. Seattle had a corrupt mayor and police chief delete incriminating texts before it was cool.

Um...

Good god i'm tearing through these Carl books. I'm only starting book 5 but already bracing for withdrawal when i catch up to y'all.

Whenever i tell 7yo he has to do something he doesn't want to, he now gives a weighty sigh, and says, "If you *insist*!" Chat, it is the cutest fucking thing.

Billionaire Ted's body ain't even cold, and what's with the Nacho Man erasure!

There are days when I miss being an editor. I loved writing headlines. Whoever did this, I hope they took the rest of the day off.

Hard to take anything Bezos says seriously when it takes the Mayor of fucking New York to collect the paltry $9 Million he'd been delinquent on. From air traffic controllers, to police escorts, to city officials billionaires rob our pockets twice by tying up public resources while not paying taxes.

AI Bro de Bergerac

Absolutely horrified at this planned study from my own institution: www.404media.co/researchers-... >>

It is so wild watching @hbomberguy.bsky.social's plagiarism essay play out in realtime with this Barkan nonsense.

For (a lot) more on this subject, see @codyjohnston.bsky.social's magnum opus: youtu.be/Yj-wc9qugGY?... *warning* this was made during the first Trump administration, and some of the commentary on naive "past Cody" is gonna feel really fuckin meta in 2026. He totally called the pee drinking tho.

I've often said the biggest problem with DB Kai is that it doesn't have the driving test episode. @aftermath.site knows how to get me on board before even reading the article.

Nintendo goes after another fan project. smh

Johnny Reb ass motherfuckers telling immigrants to "assimilate" is rich. You first, ya stars and bars bitches.

PTA auction was a huge success! The cardboard standee of @levarburton.bsky.social even went for $350. ...but you don't need to take my word for it

The auction is live! Do you want the *very first* copy of Enemy of my Enemy that @alexsegura.com signed? Sure you do. Now's your chance! Bidding ends in 6.5 hours! app.auctria.com/Redirect/dd6...

Minnesota did not go through all that to have people who live elsewhere do a weird one-up thing. It’s not a competition and we’re all in it together Resistance will look different in New York just like it did in Chicago and LA. We learned from those before us and we’ve got your back too ✊

"To my darling Candy, All characters portrayed within this book are fictitious and any resemblance to persons living or dead is entirely coincidental."

Your regular reminder that the Batman Forever soundtrack fucking rules. Goddamn right i want this game now. Seal-ed the deal.

It was a day of destiny, yo. Spirits fought spirits, bro.

When mom picked up @alexsegura.com's latest, evidently it was the first physical copy he had occasion to sign. Don't know if she told you, but it's for a PTA auction later this month, and you better believe we're gonna milk that note for all it's worth. Thanks in advance!

Slightly diminish a book Designated Hitter in the Rye

Okay, you got there. Now admit people tried to tell you this in advance, and promise to from now on listen more carefully to and also heed the people who understand the harms of "AI", and then we'll have an easier time moving on and going forward.

One of my favorite episodes of Star Trek: the Next Generation.

I didn't super care about the image carousel thing in the abstract, but they've implemented it in such a way that it makes it very difficult to tell there's more than one picture on a post. Terrible update.

"Lord Vader? A cat breathed fire on the giant Furby's foot, but Harry and Marv are gonna get it in their TIE fighters." Kiddo's expanded universe is getting bizarre.

Cursed Zillow floor plan.

Y’know, Oregon has a particular way of dealing with things that have beached themselves and died…

lol

Was listening to a Behind the Bastards about Phil Spector, and they dropped the Bowie bomb as an aside about how we give musicians we admire a free pass to be horrible and, yup. Fucking wild that his legacy is largely untouched.

this is like when people's EGM subscriptions were replaced with Maxim

The boring answer is because it has the trappings of a conversational search engine, and typing "timer" into one of those has worked for 20 years. Ditto for simple math problems i've observed folks do same with. A perfectly valid customer behavior for a dishonestly marketed product.

We’re on strike today! Support our fight for a fair contract by NOT visiting the @propublica.org website or engaging with ProPublica stories today. Tell ProPublica’s management you won’t cross the picket line: actionnetwork.org/petitions/te...

New: 150 unionized ProPublica workers are on strike TODAY over AI, layoff protections, wages, and more. They're asking readers to not visit ProPublica or engage with content on other platforms. It's the first work stoppage of its kind at the newsroom. www.theverge.com/news/908401/...

Anyone got a source they like for geeky pride merch?

I've been doing some research into locations in Prague using Google Maps, and either the guy who was tasked to take the photos got the camera position wrong, or there's a small hairy ghost haunting large swathes of the city.

"Dad, let's play characters." "Okay buddy, who should we be?" "Don't worry petite, Gambit will tell you."

Really fun little set. There are mechanisms that make the dpad & buttons feel springy, a satisfyingly clicky power button, and swappable lenticular screens. Plus, the Zelda cart has a little save battery inside it!

mods are asleep post camera falling out of plane and landing in a pig pen to be licked by a pig
