Welp, that’s the end of Starfleet Academy, and, presumably, the end of this era of Star Trek: variety.com/2026/tv/news...

Curating your Plex or Jellyfin images is as soothing as a Bonsai tree. Putting the weird Polish poster variants. Setting up filebot. You are creating a garden for your homies, even if they don't appreciate it like you do.

they literally renamed the entire company after this

You absolutely cannot separate the artist and the art without contributing to the persecution of trans people. Boycott everything Potter.

Thanks for being there, Animorphs.

Why not just make murder legal? Prosecutors are expensive.

Things look grim in the markets right now, but at least the U.S. economy wasn’t already being propped up by a massive speculative AI bubble that is highly sensitive to rising energy costs.

I think about this Tony Benn speech much more than I used to

"ten generations of pokemon" and "fifty seasons of survivor" are both sentences designed to make me feel way older than i actually am

A guy I work with has a dad who likes Star Trek (well some of it lol) & Was complaining about Jay'den. Saying "There's no such thing as a gay Klingon" I was surprised my response caught him out when I said "There's no such thing as a Klingon." I just don't get why there's so much toxicity nowadays

Again: trans people are a very small minority. If your *KNEEJERK* reaction when you encounter these rare & beautiful butterflies is *ANYTHING* other than “What can I do to make your life a little brighter?” you need to interrogate yourself. Impede the life of trans ppl & you’re in danger, from me. ❤️

Kansas is sending letters to trans people telling them that their licenses will be revoked as of tomorrow and that they risk arrest for driving on a suspended license. This is pure cruelty. www.erininthemorning.com/p/kansas-sen...

🚨SKETCH FUNDRAISER🚨 Despite the govt claiming a “drawdown” in MN, ICE has been active in my town & has taken at least 6 members of our community. I am taking comms this week to raise funds for the Winona Sheltering Network, which provides assistance for impacted community members. Details below ⬇️ ⬇️

The left tried for decades to pass green energy subsidies, passed them, the subsidies worked, and now literally the entire planet's electricity grid is going to convert to solar+battery. It just doesn't feel like "tech" because it mostly produces kinda boring blue collar jobs instead of billionaires

Eddie Bauer goes chapter 11. As usual...

Excited for all of these incredible-looking Switch 2 games that I will buy and never have time to play

I love the art in Rigsby WI. (I love the writing, but I love the art more.)

What do you know, a bunch of real people saying the sorts of things I was saying earlier.

one of the most important lessons we can learn in this moment is that we have no democracy. There is no consent of the governed. Elected officials do more to stifle popular will than fulfill it. We have no democratic input on national security or economy, abstracted away behind bureaucracies.

I’d just like to point out it appears Alex Pretti was holding an iPhone in his hand just before he was murdered by Trump’s lawless thugs. Tonight Tim Cook attended a private screening of Melania’s movie at White House. Let that sink in.

"People-First" is an accurate name for the KS Republican party's agenda, at least for people whose name begins with "K" and ends with "och".

Trans people: "Fix your hearts or die!" Scott Adams: ok *dies*

This is some fucking journalism.

What was your #childhoodcinema The Palace East: opened in 1991 with 10 screens (two of which were THx-certified) as a second-run $1 theater. Relaunched as the Premiere Palace in '99 to do first-run and art house movies.

The woman killed by ICE today was a poet. She won the 2020 Academy of American Poets, University & College Poetry Prize at Old Dominion University. (And this is Renee from confirmed socials- a photo of a different woman with red lipstick is going around, but that was a classmate.) /

when you have heard of the game in the youtube video titled "the underrated classic you've never heard of"

Sometimes if you're designing things to 3D print, you have to do some weird math.

New from my distributor I foolishly read on this, my supposed week off. @ironcircuscomics.bsky.social does a lot of library business. I'm dreading that January statement. Gang, if you have ever wanted an Iron Circus title, now would be a wonderful time for you to grab one. 💀 store.ironcircus.com

50 years ago this week, Gene Siskel and Roger Ebert made the first pilot for their TV show. In honor of this huge anniversary, I created my definitive “Best of Siskel & Ebert” article - 50 of their best reviews from across their entire career. 👍🏻👍🏻

I'm so excited for this.

Democrats, coming off a historic national protest against fascism and a country-wide electoral sweep:

Oil is the most Lovecraftian thing that actually exists.

Please, PLEASE, I am begging you as both a parent and someone who is sick of all this THIS, go vote for your school boards. Even if you don't have kids, that's how these reactionary dipshits got their feet in, that's where the book bans and library cuts start.

The sequel trilogy could’ve had something meaningful to say about the resurgence of fascism in the face of progressive peacetime (a year before Trump got elected) and an asshole trying to put in the work to atone could be meaningful in this time of “the male loneliness epidemic”, but, no, Baby Yoda.

The older I get, the more I understand this.

Video game boss strategies? NO! THE WARMTH OF MY DOG'S BELLY! Differences between power supply SKUs? NO! THE SMELL OF FRESH DILL! Summaries of TikTokker beefs? NO! THE FEELING JUST BEFORE I KISSED HER FOR THE FIRST TIME! DO NOT LET THE COMPUTER IN!

I've been getting back into the Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy series after many years, and the most relatable part is how everyday objects like doors and elevators have been imbued with artificial intelligence and it just makes them obnoxious and frustrating to use and everyone hates it.

Putting a Democrat with a Nazi tattoo in the Senate normalizes Naziism in our federal politics for a long ass time. All these recent stories about secret Nazi group chats? Anytime that happens going forward will be met with "But Platner." It's not a purity test. Think through the consequences.

There was a time where computers were multiple times more powerful than the computer for sale the year before. It was trivial to sell. Now, REAL improvements are less than incremental. They're squeezing blood from a stone.

This is the first autumn in 5 years without new episodes of #StarTrekLowerDecks.😢 Man, I really miss the show!!! It always made me laugh (I need that now!) and it had the deepest and most outrageous callbacks. Plus: it showed that it IS totally okay to talk about chairs on starships - I feel heard!

i'm not going to chide or scold anyone for only now leaving twitter. your private, unspoken acknowledgment that i'm your intellectual and moral superior is all i need
