A lot of great ones out there, but as a standout I loved season two of Fargo. Bokeem Woodbine really outdid himself.

Still looking to speak with SNAP recipients! 🚨

The little mossy mushroomy places in the Gnomes book. Technically they're not fictional, they're just forests, but I'm not small enough to ride a mouse to my mushroom house in a mossy nook to talk with my snail friend who's as tall as I am, and I've always resented that.

Behold a handsome fishy man

When you’re the paper of record and have definitely understood the franchise up until this point

Sup, fuckers? (I've read no Austen but I'm a Frankensteinophile, or perhaps a Freakenstein? Idk. I'm sure Austen is good too! But she suffers from a severe lack of mad science and sympathetic monsters. Definitely the former, anyway.)

You ever call a senator's office and ask the staffer who picks up what it's like to work for someone without a spine? 10/10 recommend.

This should happen everywhere at random just in case

I don’t mean to dilute Stella’s message, but I want to add that Elián González grew up to be a member of the Cuban National Assembly. “I will fight from whatever trench the revolution demands.” There is no “bright side” to the trauma we are inflicting. But revolutionaries are being made every day.

Icymi 😬

However, High Brew, unlike Death Wish, is absolutely not fucking around with its canned coffees.

Productivity hack report: two triple shot espresso canned coffees in one day is not a productivity hack. It is a laxative, it is a diuretic, it is an anxiety enhancer, it may even be a mild hallucinogen, but it is *not* a productivity hack.

It’s that day, y’all. Time to do some Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald posting…

Never trust a white whale and a scar, indeed

Well, wilt thou? Huh? Are you game? A MONTH OF DICK is returning this January. If you want to be part of our merry crew on this doomed voyage, message me and I'll add you to the list! (if you participated the first time, you're already signed up!) More details as we get closer! 🐋 📖

Everyone… I just need to rent a place to replace our tent. My family has fallen very sick because of it, Don’t forget us even with the ceasefire it’s an illusion to divert attention from us. Our suffering has worsened, the situation is extremely dire and I’ve lost everything except my trust in you.

this isn’t surprising in the least but is worth circulating as widely as the “breaking” news that made it seem like this would be a vehicle for overturning Obergefell www.nbcnews.com/news/amp/rcn...

TIL that blood platelets have serotonin receptors, which is why anemia can mimic depression symptoms and that is absolutely fucking fascinating.

I counter the claim that "AI steals just the way human artists steal." We do not. Artists engage relationally with sources rather than severing them for computational processing. Computers are not people. Comparing generative tools to artists is a dehumanizing act.

Like séances surging after the Civil War and Spanish Flu, today's AI promises—eternal life, superintelligence, climate solutions—emerge from the conditions of collective grief and fear.

It's a very good book

oh just muppetizing movie scenes: thread

I was notified last week that I am getting laid off from KEXP in December. I don't really want to talk about it. But are you an editor for a reputable music publication with decent pay? Get at me: [email protected]

Just thinking about this scene today

"AI made me believe in the human soul by showing me how a soulless art looks like" has never been truer.

Nothing funnier than being called arrogant. For me in general, but especially because the argument at hand was that yes, even people with big important jobs and degrees can be vulnerable to marketing.

Nuremburg trials is the moderate position

"The deal would include a promise that Lucy will not move the football out of the way sometime in December"

Infuriating thread

After lots of well-guided speculation, we now have proof that far-right propagandists in Portland have been directly coordinating—through at least text message—with ICE agents. In this case, Chelly got permission from a "Travis D." inside to stand on a half-wall off limits to protesters.

I dunno I’m just really tired

I made a random compliment generator today because I wanted to make something nice :)

Tech guys six months ago: haha yes we’re cutting all this WASTEFUL spending by eliminating medical research and USAID Tech guys now: yes I think taxpayers will be excited to bailout my non consensual pornography machine

oh! does this mean… i’m winning…
