Beautiful graphic of the day (because that should be a thing: Our Solar System By my data hero Eleanor Lutz

No shit, they also didn't pick up anything of my damn cardboard. I'll probably wind up having to burn it in the firepit when the wind fucks off because I have two weeks worth of renovation cardboard piled up.

Catching up with what James Gurney, the Dinotopia artist, is up to these days. Pathetic.

This is an Underground Railroad style operation. This is what I mean that we should study UR history, tactics, and strategy.

Stop scrolling and post two characters that bring you joy.

Oh he's about to get outed for trying to "marry" a 12 year old, right?

Flee

Terribly uncanny how relevant this is to today.

Look at this fashionable bracelet I got from @jesscamnj.bsky.social etsy shop! You should get one too! www.etsy.com/shop/Camacho...

Cammy. Missed Cammy's birthday but still have a cammy. I've been drawing Cammy fanarts since the early 90's and I still don't get how her gloves work. That elbow cover disc thingy is just weird. Also as I'm typing realizing that I forgot to paint the lighting bolts on her thighs....Sigh..

When countries get hooked on US tech, their governments are constrained in reining in tech’s harms while most of the economic benefits accrue to the United States. It’s time to break out of that trap — but that means challenging the Silicon Valley model, not creating our own digital colonizers.

not a lot that can make me audibly gasp on the internet at this point but wow

1 second later

catching up on my mary worth and... i'm not sure parrots hover??? this looks like hovering, like a hummingbird or a helicopter or is this panel just catching sunny flying by at 30 miles per hour delivering lines at crucial panel positionings

oh no, where will @evansolomon.bsky.social get generated child pornography now?

Roses are red Nazis are lurking Beware of them here because

In my mind I’m wheatpasting this elf girl everywhere #artsky

sure we get easier travel to China, better access to the materials we need for our manufacturing capacity, cheaper EVs, and we get to sell more canola to one of the world's largest economies but have we considered that it'd make a very stupid angry nazi man who knows nothing about us angry?

Another part of the Canada-China deal: Canadians will be able to visit China without needing a visa. Now to see when it gets implemented.

OH I FORGOT TO SHARE THIS later in this episode Christine made the connection that the new CBS Evening News anchor was the same guy that was really racist to Ta-Nehisi Coates awhile back and I joked that Bari Weiss is collecting media racists like infinity stones. I made this meme for that joke.

Can somebody help me find my brother? I think he may have murdered someone.

Look at this absolute queen

Now can we have Chinese trains?

Canada’s going to start getting some Chinese EVs! I just hope this quota deal is the first step to getting BYD to set up a factory in exchange for broader access.

Wikipedia worked for years to be transparent, show peer review, and get professors to say "ok you CAN use wikipedia as a starting point in your research journey" ...but now, GenAI scrapes its content, and people don't click through. www.scientificamerican.com/article/at-2...

I love this bit too

Tesla is so fucked lmao

It seems like a giod day to share this. In case any of my friends are considering a move. transrescue.org/leaving-the-...

To be clear, a company that had to shut 400 stores down, & lose international presence, AFTER being effectively GIVEN a metric fuckton of FREE MONEY by weirdos doing meme stocks and after one of the most charismatic gaming business wonks was brought on, then went "nope not worth it", is incelposting

it is done almost a year later Paper Chrono Trigger is done proper photo session this weekend made from bristol paper, cardstock, sketchbook paper, toilet paper, & matboard (Also bit of clear resin, colored gel, LED strip, & microLEDs)

Some people are going to be mad about this for protectionist reasons, and some other people are going to scaremonger about Chinese EVs without clearly explaining how they post a greater threat to Canadian national security than, say, Tesla.

“This is the thousandth meal we’ve simulated, and we have become exceedingly efficient at it”

Weird. In my Journalism 101 class, my professors taught me to replace passive voice with action verbs, not the other way around.

if you tie a baby elephant to a post with just a small rope, it can hold them keep using that same small rope, and the elephant grows up and says "oh shit, this rope is too small and weak to hold me now that i'm big" what is the lesson? you need a bigger rope, because the elephant is bigger

They won't actually invoke the insurrection act. They know it would go badly. All of this flailing around is weakness. We will win.

what an affordable bird

I made a tool that makes retro anime sound effects. Meet AnimeVox! I made it for a game, but it's free to use. I'm using the forgotten (but popular in 80s japan) Schroeder reverb algo, and some wobble. If you find it useful consider supporting me on itch :) castpixel.itch.io/animevox

In April 2024, Spotify implemented a new scheme: songs with less than 1k streams per year would no longer receive royalties. The data for 2025 was just released via Luminate, and 88% of songs have been demonetized. Read it again: 88% of songs on Spotify have been demonetized.

Cory Doctorow thinks Evan Solomon, Canada's Minister of AI-everything, might not know what he's doing, and that the tech sector needs to be regulated in the public interest. www.hilltimes.com/story/2026/0...

I’m seeing posts from people (outside of MN) about how US citizens should carry their passports. And let me say that *inside* MN, we are calmly responding to requests with: “No, I don’t have to show you any documentation.” Because that’s how you protect everyone, regardless of immigration status.
