That's me in the corner, that's me floating in the rich, meaty stew of horror movie enthusiasts and comedy writers and performers, just like I was meant to

Benito is a threat b/c he makes art so alluring and enjoyable you want to understand everything about it and then you end up learning about sugar and slavery and colonialism and the Taínos and Hawaii and then you probably have some thoughts of your own, and that's why art is powerful and dangerous

We’re onto you, Ring

What can you do with a history degree?

Ese oscuro objeto del deseo aka C'est obscure objet de desire aka That Obscure Object of Desire by Luis Buñuel, a 1977 film that is comic and tragic by turns and always anti-fascist.

My YouTube algorithm is poised to be dominated by Bad Bunny content, and I'm not mad.

Disappointed to learn Bad Bunny wore Zara, effectively promoting the brand to millions. Although Zara has made admirable strides to address labor conditions, fast fashion can never be ethical because it depends on rapid production and cheap prices, which results in worker exploitation.

“I’m mad I can’t understand Bad Bunny’s lyrics because they’re not in English” my brother millions of metalheads around the world have been happily listening to incomprehensible Finnish shrieks and Japanese death grunts since we were teens, you’re just boring and racist

[Edward Said voice] Ever read a Jane Austen book and thought about the atrocities of the sugar cane industry?

My favorite fashion commentator, John Villa, on the red carpet for the 15% Pledge Gala. Nigeria has some jaw-dropping, amazing designers.

From the bestskeeting author of the Bluesky-famous six-week Bad Bunny 101 comes this essential close reading of the halftime show! 🧵

Me on Bad Bunny's beautiful joyous halftime show and why it is legible to everyone, no matter what language(s) you speak

The thing about the world of romance readers and writers is that they are some of the smartest, most devoted, most gimlet-eyed people I know, and they will ferret out that AI bitch and lambaste her work with unparalleled violence.

Bless @mcsweeneys.net and happy Bad Bunny day!

Romance is not generally my jam, but in light of this fucking AI-romance writing travesty, may I recommend two human-written romances I've read recently, SATURN RETURNING, a twisty queer romance by Kim Narby, and LOVE STORY, the classic 1970s four-hanky romance by Erich Segal.

I played this—in fact, I went out and purchased a 20-sided dice so that I could play this—and it was a creepy good time.

Today I learned why Scandi waffles are so delicious, which is that the recipe calls for 175 grams, a little more than 3/4 cup, of butter.

In case you were on the fence about buying something from Amazon…

And never forget. These are asylum seekers. This is what the USA is doing to the most vulnerable people on the planet who we promised to protect.

Democratizing the arts looks like universal income, low-barrier grants for both emerging and working artists, well-funded municipal arts & recreation programs, vibrant third spaces, and a well-funded public school system with progressive curriculum. Not a free pass for corporate-owned slop engines.

Good article on the misery that the US is inflicting on everyday people in Cuba. What Trump is doing is just an intensification of six decades of US economic warfare. apnews.com/article/cuba...

Every Reddit community right now:

The skincare people are correct: Weleda Skin Food is good.

one of the greatest human triumphs of my lifetime is the relentless, unceasing, heroic effort by DECADES' worth of doctors and scientists to find a cure for a disease much of the world didn't take seriously for years because it predominantly affected a community they thought kinda deserved it

I hope the person who made this pot felt as pleased with themselves as their art suggests they did.

This is great reporting of exactly the kind of chumminess you expect, and it will induce rage and/or despair.

You know you've crossed some sort of line when even theTimes calls a blatantly racist video blatantly racist. But it would have been more accurate to say that Trump acted in a blatantly racist way when he posted the racist video.

I'm seeing a lot of directions for salted/sugared preserved oranges. Has anyone done this, and if so, what do you do with your preserved oranges?

This thread but especially this illustration of the 1980 Lake Placid Winter Olympics.

Here’s a story published yesterday, the day before the current president posted a video depicting the first black U.S. president and First Lady as gorillas. mississippitoday.org/2026/02/05/m...

I ordered a box of blood oranges and avocados from an organic farmer in Calabria and now have far more oranges than I, a normal human woman, can consume whole and raw. What can I do with the rest?

There's no minimum wage in Sweden (wages are decided by a consortium of workers, unions, and businesses with no government involvement) but if there was it'd be about $28 to $30/hr, varying on currency values.

This is one big reason why I subscribe to 404 Media. Gut punch of an article.

Sir Ian McKellen performing a monologue from Shakespeare’s Sir Thomas More on the Stephen Colbert show. Never have I heard this monologue performed with such a keen sense of prescience. Nor have I ever been in this exact historical moment.TY Sir Ian, for reaching us once again. #Pinks #ProudBlue

For this Black History Month, given the regime’s vile smearing of Ohio’s Haitian population, I think it’s a good time to remember a literary giant of Haitian descent, Alexander Dumas, père He gave us the Three Musketeers, the Count of Monte Cristo & so much more en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alexand...

Morning Bluesky.

This video by one of my favorite fashion content makers is sublime. Haiti! Mongolia! Wow:

I'm sorry but I'm still having a hard time mentally cruising past this factual scenario: billionaire nerd buys newspaper; #$NERD lets newspaper cook; subscriptions soar; #$NERD is spooked by pandemic activism; #$NERD clings to authoritarian; subscriptions tank; #$NERD gets richer; #$NERD kills newspaper.

Also morally wrong.

Unbelievable
