Records show that in Sept. 2023, the Franklin County Board of Commissioners spent $39,675.45 to send John O'Grady, Erica Crawley and five staffers to Tokyo for “best practices sharing” in how its convention center and tourism bureau “handles visitors.” www.rooster.info/p/its-all-ab...

A few followers saying baby fingernails are like bird talons as if we've never been picked up by large birds off a volcano after completing a life-altering quest that required great personal resilience and sacrifice and while it was happening thought wow these talons are really dangerous.

Happy Rapture to those who celebrate!

The only ethical use of AI is to create a deepfaked cut of Tron 3 that replaces Jared Leto with Tim Robinson released to torrent sites the same day it premieres in theaters

So many people have recommended this documentary to me that I'm going to pass on the recommendation to you before I've even gotten a chance to see it.

For reasons I cannot sufficiently explain I have Yassified JFK

I cannot praise them enough. The product is AMAZING and the museum collection with history lessons really does continue Fran Taylor’s Legacy.

Why does EVERYTHING have an app, a club, a subscription fee, or all of the above? The internet was supposed to be fun, and now I have to pull my phone out all the time or I’m “losing money”.

Omg I love this Mr Solis

great read. the task is impossible. try anyway

Saw this #SesameStreet reel on Instagram and felt so seen, it hurt. "And it only Tuesday." I wasn't expecting Sesame Street to still be making hella-relatable-to-me content when I was in my 50s, but dang. www.instagram.com/p/DOHCqVyjgvQ/

made me laugh out loud so hard that's how my Tuesday felt (also if you've never seen Cookie Monster on Bon Appetit- I highly recommend it. Made me laugh so much): www.youtube.com/watch?v=-Wf2...

Sweet. The Lost Mines of Phandelver was - to my mind - the greatest starter set of any RPG I've ever tried. Very much looking forward to this one.

So I’ve actually made another Koffing! The reason for this is because when they will be released next month, I would like the eye outline to be embroidered, rather than applique (like the last one), so I needed to get photos of one like this! #plushart #plushpattern #pokemon

Pythagorean Triple Square Day, as one man affectionately calls 9/16/25, is a day like no other this century.

It feels like the door to an entire era of American cinema has been finally and irrevocably closed. RIP. www.nytimes.com/2025/09/16/m...

#KingdomHearts released in the US 23 years ago today 🗝️

Six months ago. I meant it. Do it now if you haven’t.

one of the most important technological revolutions in modern history and you're likely not hearing anything about it because it's making the oligarchs who control our information environment poorer instead of richer

I hope you all read this from me.

It's in no way a solution to our current problems, but try to do something nice for someone you don't know today or this week. It'll make you feel better. Just try it.

this is, hands down, the best video I've seen on men's influencer content and it's not close either

Being an X-Man means being accepted for being ace, on the Autistic spectrum, and for loving Pokémon!

I am very, very excited about HADES 2, but it's never going to beat the truly special moment when HADES released while I was half way through a PhD on Zagreus. The ways in which I had to explain my thesis shifted completely overnight, and it was one of the wildest things I've ever experienced.

THIS ANIMATION IS SO INSANE

This isn't how birding is supposed to work!

The headline makes this sound like a one-off but this is just normal fall migration! (It IS awe-inspiring, so maybe the headline is not so far off.) Of interest: an explanation of HOW they pick bird shapes out of radar data. Thanks for bird nerding with us, @matthewcappucci.bsky.social !

I'm horrified to hear that Charlie Kirk was shot at an event in Utah. Democratic societies will always have political disagreements, but we must never allow America to become a country that confronts those disagreements with violence. Mark and I are praying for Charlie's recovery.

sorry I somehow missed "without factoring in overhead". yeah man, that's how profits work. if you don't count 100% of your expenses, then it's easy to show profit

"The real kick in the teeth is no matter how much manufacturing is brought back to the US these items will never be made in the USA. There is no upside." As we predicted, the end of de minimis has made every hobby that requires the purchase of items more expensive. 🔗 www.404media.co/its-just-a-m...

over time I believe this will end up being one of the most unpopular things the administration ever does a death sentence for many hobbies and all the average consumer sees is that you’re taking away all their bargains one of the few policies that has a direct negative effect on almost everyone

JUST IN: Anthropic has agreed to pay at least $1.5 billion to settle a lawsuit brought by a group of book authors alleging copyright infringement. That’s at least $3,000 for each copyrighted work that it pirated—well below what Anthropic may have had to pay if it had lost the case at trial.

I often think about how rad “nothing is practical” is. I was thinking about how in Robocop they don’t explain shit about how they made him. It’s not practical at all and it rules.
