Still thinking about this young hero. Not just the physical challenges to swim for hours to find help, but the psychological fear to having left your family behind in open waters and carrying the weight of being their only hope of survival. This really deserves a lot of recognition.

this is a very cool thing to do and also highlights one of the biggest keys to Zohran's appeal: he just thinks New York City is really neat people who live somewhere want to vote for someone who likes it there and wants to make it better, not someone who wants to use it as a springboard

This is largely how I became a Cincinnati Bengals fan

God Democrats are fucking pointless.

Catherine O'Hara playing two wildly different mothers in Home Alone and Schitt's Creek, but being incredible in both. I hope she got to hear how much everyone loved her before she went.

Carney has still disappointed me, writ large, but he’s had a nice coupla weeks in my books.

The degree of contempt I have for the American Democratic Party knows almost no bounds.

🚨NEW MUSIC FROM PRIME BIRDS (and @abovethesnowline.bsky.social) 🚨 "Only Assholes Sign Up For ICE" is now available on bandcamp. It's free to download, but should you choose to make a purchase, 100% of proceeds will go Minnesota Immigrant Law Center primebirds.bandcamp.com/track/only-a...

She took a half step back and then stepped AT this dude. ICE needs 30 masked guys each with their own body armor and assault rifle to even approach this level of courage.

Nunca creí que los leopardos comerían MI cara

The TTC subway cars this morning

Bovino’s retirement needs to be a cage. His command environment yielded Renee Good’s death, Alex Pretti’s death & Julio Sosa-Celis’ shooting. Failure to prosecute Bovino & everyone else materially responsible for these atrocities will be understood by ICE, CBP, etc as a green light for the next ones

Genuinely bringing tears to my eyes.

Clearly actually taken very early morning Dec 25, the timestamp at the bottom was just from having been misset by the cam's owner.

Nonviolence is, in fact, working. This administration is weaker than it was a year ago. More and more of the public is becoming galvanized against it; its agents are being impeded.

I know I keep posting about this but every time I check, the list gets longer and longer and longer. Hundreds and hundreds of places, everything from huge local institutions to small spots that will definitely struggle. No exaggeration, it's the most astonishing act of solidarity I've ever seen.

I love the mail.

LRT: I take it all back, let some Alabama dumbfucks try to go full Napoleon.

LOLLLLLLLLLLL

Deepest apologies to @brucearthur.bsky.social who is at the heart of the Venn Diagram

There should be a rule that if you are a Known Sports Poster you can say things like “holy fucking shit” with zero context but if you are primarily a Known Politics Poster that gets you like a two day ban

I’ll never get tired of this ad at our local indie theater 😂

STUDENT TEACHER: okay class, who knows what an oxymoron is KID: you’re an oxymoron STUDENT TEACHER: well yes technically that is correct

This makes me feel physically ill.

The Mark Carney work with China is the first thing he has done as Prime Minister that I really like. That’s not a great record, but it’s a hell of a lot better than the zero it was at before.

Best lunch ever was at the Southern Star in Chattanooga, TN. Every dish - Nashville hot chx, pone, chess pie, sweet tea, hush puppies, fried okra, Brunswick stew - was incredible. It was an unassuming little cafe. We only stopped cuz I kept saying ‘Pardon me, boy’ when we saw hwy signs for the town

Man, I Love Fluharty

Aaron Rodgers retired from the NFL with 2:39 left in a playoff game he was playing in

Not a movie, but Pod’s little nod to Lady Brienne that it’s okay to go get knighted, that no one is laughing at her.

“SIR William Thatcher. Your father heard that.”

Benny the Jet Rodriguez telling Smalls to stand in the outfield and hold up his glove, thereby allowing him to make a whole team of friends.

The amount I despise Aaron Rodgers has made tonight’s showing just BARELY a silver medal to Kyle Lowry, but the amount I love Kyle Lowry means that Rodgers can’t even win that.

Kyle Lowry has his moment in Toronto 🥲

If I wanted to make investments on the total collapse of the United States economy, what’s the best way to do that?

Ok, of the remaining teams, I think I go: 1) Bills 2) Texans 3) Bears (they’re fun! Chaos!) 4) Seahawks 5) Chargers 6) Broncos 5) Getting hit by a bus 6) Rams 7) Niners 8) Steelers 9) Getting hit by a 2nd bus driven by Kevin Patullo 10) Patriots

Sports are so logical.

ICQ was way ahead of its time, at least in the sense that it predicted an era in which every new development warrants an “Uh-Oh!”

This is WILD You'd think it's wild from the description alone but it's EVEN MORE WILD

S-Tier gif.

LRT: Holy hell. I mean, what on earth. It so so so so so good.

Today in “Dudes Rock”: A dude playing Dire Straits’s “Sultans of Swing” guitar solo on…a recorder.

Best TikTok thing going is the two dudes trying food from every country without leaving NYC. If you haven’t seen them yet, it’s incredible. My favorite so far is last week’s. Legit got me emotional.

The fact my phone can take a pretty great photo of Orion from the side of the road is pretty great.

The ending of The Good Place moved my girlfriend at the time and I to tears in a good way. It did what it set out to do, a lighthearted exploration of philosophy and the implications of an afterlife that hinges on some sort of standard of morality, and it was never cynical about it.

The *actual* Scrubs finale. Note perfect use of his fantasies to get an epilogue AND a farewell from cast favourites all the way back to S1. Not to mention a wicked goodbye between him and Cox. I genuinely don’t remember the plot of the balance of the episode, but the last eight minutes or so? ❤️❤️❤️

Please enjoy this short video of an Anna’s Hummingbird preening, complete with lil’ tongue flicks

Third in a trilogy of some of the best comedy I’ve seen on Bluesky, all RT’d to my TL, bless

These genuine certified beauties not knowing (or I guess wanting) forks and going whole hog is outstanding.
