Personally, I think the good saint might have told the man to take her skull and throw it in the river because she was tired of her skull being in a big glass and gold case for people to gawk at. I mean, centuries of gawkers--how tedious. www.theguardian.com/world/2026/m...

This is amazing - @kevinolearytv 🤡 is fearmongering about Chinese agents opposing his giant Utah data center… but it’s 2 young local girls in Utah who hilariously call him (and his “dumbass hat”) out👇🏽 Full: www.instagram.com/reel/DYU074V...

I prefer the left-long-jumping, myself. Come on leaners: leap for it.

Scientists named this species of hairy ghost pipefish after beloved Sesame Street resident Mr. Snuffleupagus and we're obsessed.

New Mountain Goats album is coming in August. First track is an absolute banger. I will try and fail to be cool about this.

So many memories of the Braves from when I lived in Atlanta, watching Smoltz, Maddux, Glavine, and above all, Bobby Cox managing the team. R.I.P.

These are actual Freedom Riders, now elderly, sitting together decades after risking their lives to challenge segregation in the American South. On May 4, 1961, they rode buses south to defy illegal segregation in terminal facilities.

Zelensky has issued a presidential decree “allowing” Russia to hold its annual Victory Day parade in Moscow. The decree provides exact coordinates of the Red Square that shall be excluded from the list of Ukrainian strike targets. Phenomenal power play.

For just a nanosecond I thought Rubio had repented of his sins before going to visit the Pope, since his statement so accurately describes the United States government.

Just finished re-reading Ada Palmer's marvelous Terra Ignota series. As someone who taught Hobbes for 33 years, I did so much enjoy her interweaving of his thinking throughout her books. And the ending, oh, the ending, with Hobbes there amongst the seeds that have flown. @adapalmer.bsky.social

Today marks 10 years without Prince 🙏💜🕊️☔️

I'll never forget seeing Prince in concert. For the encore, he came up out of the stage with that marvelous purple guitar of his, playing Purple Rain. But the best part was when he set on a stool with his acoustic guitar and just talked and played. It was like the whole arena was in his living room.

We're always on call.

Wishing you and yours a very merry Confederate Surrender Day.

What a beautiful picture.

The Artemis II crew just gave us an 80's sitcom intro and it's absolutely hilarious! Freeze frames, cheesy grins, theme song energy. These are the four humans who are about to go around the Moon. NASA said fun and we are here for it! #MomSky #SheShed

New over here so introducing myself with some commentary on Artemis II!

This sums up my feelings so well. It's all been seeming so bittersweet to me.

I am reading Trace Elements by Ada Palmer and Jo Walton. How fascinating to learn (among many other things) the history behind my becoming a SF fan by buying books on wire racks with my allowance money in the local drugstore so long ago. What a wonderful book. @adapalmer.bsky.social

Everyone needs to stop what they’re doing and watch this video. “It seems like there’s a lack of diversity here today, and it’s mostly people who look like you and me, and I just…?” This lady’s response is🔥

To whoever did this at the #NoKings in Boston: Thank you.❤️ It made me tear up. And we must to be reminded of needless damage to humanity that results directly from the careless, bellicose bluster coming from the Pentagon and White House.
