Time for the First Responder Bowl!

If I want to watch a show about a drunk horse, I'll just watch Bojack Horseman again

The gift I look forward to every Christmas morning

One fun thing about the Japanese is we love the FUCK out of Christmas and have only the loosest concept of what is going on

A more detailed account of the purchase by @ricksteves.bsky.social of a neighborhood hygiene center, his plans to help improve it further, and him calling out a failure to support vulnerable people. What a mensch. Be Rick. www.seattletimes.com/seattle-news...

NFL Films made this for all of us. A Carol of the DOINKS.

"The Maltese Falcon" era of San Francisco is officially now more dangerous than the version today which makes every tech investor want to invent Robocop

Year 1 data on congestion pricing in Manhattan… * Vehicle traffic: -11% * Foot traffic: +3.4% * Storefront vacancy: -0.9% * Pollution: -22% * Revenue for mass transit: $548M So YES this has been a huge success.

The full spiked 60 Minutes CECOT package, clean & subtitled. 1/5

BTW you can let a Paramount+ agent that you'll cancel your sub unless they air an unedited CECOT segement on 60 Minutes here help.paramountplus.com/s/contact-us

Now seems like a swell time to point out that Frontline just released this excellent 11-minute mini-documentary about what happened inside CECOT.

The rate of return here is crazy: for a few hundred thousand dollars, this lab produces literally billions of oysters and supports a seafood industry worth hundreds of millions. And the Trump administration is just like "fuck all that, it's wasteful spending, you're fired"

Neither is herpes, but I’ll keep doing my work without either.

truly amazing how many different professions there are where everyone’s newest persistent headache is “AI zealots high on their own supply”

PG&E is having a massive outage in San Francisco. Waymo robots aren't handling the traffic light outages well. Cell service is also out is some places. No surprise as Waymo robots & cell have repeatedly failed during power outages. CPUC regulates both Waymo and PG&E (Profit Greed & Explosions).

Good things happen in threes so… 🤞

I had Clockwork (Changing Times’ Irish stout) a couple of times in Dublin and really enjoyed it. IMHO it’s a worthy Guinness alternative. It was smooth, with a bit more of a mocha flavor. Also: Get the Irish coffee if you go to Swan Bar

Consider Arizona State I knew Kenny Dillingham wouldn’t leave #forksup #o2v africa.espn.com/college-foot...

IMPORTANT: NWS Boulder just issued a rare "Particularly Dangerous Situation" (PDS) Fire Weather Warning for Boulder, Hwy 93, and the Boulder + northern JeffCo foothills for tomorrow. Winds: 85-110 mph. Bone dry. This is a Fire Weather Warning with an exclamation point. #COwx

For the last few months, I've been working on a story about January's crash near Washington, D.C. What I learned was that it was simply an accident waiting to happen. Special Report: The night everything at DCA finally went wrong (via @theaircurrent.com) theaircurrent.com/aviation-saf...

PEOPLE WHO MAKE SIMPSONS MEMES DO THEM BESPOKE AND HAND-CRAFTED AND ITS ONE OF THE INTERNET’S PROUDEST TRADITIONS

Commuting by bicycle in Belgium pays off as employees earn compensation for every km they ride. 1 in 6 employees commute by bike and get a bicycle allowance of €0.28/km. People cycling to work in 2024 earned an average of around €460 net per year (some as high as €810), up 20% over the past year.

TLDR: You fucking fight for the right thing. You fight for it because it's the fucking right thing. And when you do so, you do well. This is not hard to understand for anyone who doesn't have Pundit Brain. www.gelliottmorris.com/p/the-cost-o...

Maybe I’m overly paranoid, but I wouldn’t fly to any of the ABC Islands right now. Too many careless people around

I would be... FURIOUS if people did this to me or someone I know.

Thinking about this more, Rob Reiner was also a patriot. That’s a word we need to reclaim from flag-humping idiots who do nothing but make us collectively worse. Rob. cared deeply about this country and what it could potentially be.

Rob Reiner was the definition of an absolute mensch

He's also responsible for raising all the money that paid for bringing Hollingsworth v. Perry & even more importantly Bostic v. Schaefer, which created the circuit split that forced SCOTUS to take on Obergefell v. Hodges. The role he played in American marriage equality cannot be overstated.

Just finished watching “Wake Up Dead Man” only to then see the news about Rob Reiner and his wife. What in the absolute fuck

Very sad that I felt I had no choice but to resign from The Infinite Monkey Cage - a victory for the transphobes and other bigots - I did it because so much of the media has chosen to believe the kind and empathetic people are a fiction - they are real and so often unrepresented.

The UK has turned into a censorious nightmare state because of transphobia

This is my friend's cat. Its name is Cookie Swirl, and it disappeared in the American section of Charlotte airport on 11/10. We're asking for your help. She doesn't have any other socials, so if you can post it widely to see if anyone knows where it is. It's a little thing, but matters a lot to her.

SCOOP: The Trump administration is providing the names of all travelers passing through U.S. airports to immigration officials in search of people with deportation orders, a substantial expansion of government efforts to draw on data to hunt down immigrants. www.nytimes.com/2025/12/12/u...

loath to be too precious about this stuff but I want one lesson of defector to be "you can choose to not do stuff that sucks" even if "doing stuff that sucks" is the default

Fantastic news for anyone who wants to see an AI video of Donald Duck sucking off Mickey Mouse

I wonder how much of this is due to suburbanite-targeted bullshit propaganda about how NYC is a crime-infested cesspool www.hollywoodreporter.com/business/bus...

well this does not seem good. but just as long as everyone is well-dressed, we should be ok www.nytimes.com/2025/12/10/u...
