The Castro Theatre was so foundational for my film education, and among my favorite places to just be in San Francisco. This video of the restoration work is making me emotional youtu.be/V1EU-G9jw_k?...

Yup, pretty much sums it up

WHAT A SET FROM SPO WHAT A FINISH FROM WIGGINS WHAT A NIGHT OF BASKETBALL

this is literally never not accurate

Whereas most companies ask themselves "will this provide additional value to our shareholders?" And stock prices are now largely divorced from actual business performance. Much of the S&P 500's market cap cannot be justified based on sales and reasonable projections of growth.

What's the best way to encourage creators you follow and admire to get off of Substack and onto a platform like Ghost without coming across as a scold? And without being complain-y, but actually helpful?

At 4pm, my watch congratulated me on standing for each of 12 hours today, if you want to know how my day started.

The Venn diagram of folks who convinced themselves that "cancel culture" is a thing as well is probably a circle. I think many supposed 'intellectuals' have been weirdly poisoned by social media.

Zohran at the rally for trans youth on february 8 ❣️ he was polling single digits.

Zohran Mamdani was the first mayoral candidate and Democratic official to stand up to the Trump administration over the arrest and disappearance of Mahmoud Khalil, which he saw as a violation of the First Amendment.

✅ Cheney dead ✅ Mamdani wins ✅ Red Panda is back pretty good day

So few people understand how the template for Trump started with Reagan.

you: ChatGPT is pointless, environmentally damaging, extractive. me: yes, but it just suggested an *excellent* Negroni variation: 1 oz London Dry 1 oz Campari ½ oz Punt e Mes ½ oz Cocchi Vermouth di Torino 1 barspoon Luxardo maraschino (I did 1.5oz London Dry, as per Death & Co book)

Hello. This is Tula, a 5-mo-old rescue. Breed is “Central Valley dog.” She has definitely claimed me.

#NBA for all the chuckleheads mad about Podz, he was the only starter with a positive +/-. If the Warriors want to be taken seriously, they can't lose to a team who hadn't yet won a game.

#NBA It's a little early in the season for the Warriors to not care about winning.

VIOLENCE IS PERMISSIBLE EVEN DESIRABLE OCCASIONALLY

Amazon is helping fund a $300 million build of a ballroom for the White House. Independent bookstores are donating to food banks and organizations that help with food insecurity. They are not the same.

We now have multiple visualizations of this phenomenon from various news organizations. Which one is the best?

This is essentially the thesis of @yanisvaroufakis.bsky.social's TECHNOFEUDALISM: that these gigantic corporations are no longer concerned with what we were all taught about basic business, in favor of market manipulation and rent-seeking.

Remember that the entire "retail theft epidemic" thing was made up

The Trans Nerd Meet up is happening again this Saturday from 12:30 until whenever! We take over the patio at Zeitgeist (outdoors) and it's a very chill friendly space.

Hello #UX People! I don't typically talk work here, but this is something I put heaps of effort into. I've just published the 2025 State of UX/Design Organizational Health. www.petermerholz.com/newsletter/t... If you do this work, you'll likely find it of interest!

#NBA When Landale is in, the Dubs got to put Post in. Post handles him well.

Until Draymond needlessly tries to wrap up a breakaway layup, likely causing a flagrant foul. Like, sometimes it's okay if people just score.

#NBA 3rd quarter Warriors are my favorite Warriors.

I'm trying to use Bluesky to sell tickets to my comedy special taping. Don't make me promote on Twitter. I'd rather have an empty house. But it'd be so much nicer if it were full.

#NBA The Dubs appear to be playing even sloppier-than-usual ball. Draymond forcing passes to Butler when he doesn't have a seal; Butler, who 'hates turnovers,' throwing the ball away. If the Dubs just play with 20% more focus, they'd be way ahead.

📣THREAD: It’s surprising to me that so many people were surprised to learn that Signal runs partly on AWS (something we can do because we use encryption to make sure no one but you–not AWS, not Signal, not anyone–can access your comms). It’s also concerning. 1/

I performed in improvised parodies of TOS for 9 years, appearing at comic conventions and on SyFy Wire. I also moderated the 2010 Emerald City Comicon panel with Leonard Nimoy, who was amazing. I grew up with TNG, but developed appreciation for TOS after “These Are The Voyages” #startrek #trekkie 🖖
