Informal petition to replace Kingdom of the Crystal Skull with Apple's #FountainofYouth in the #IndianaJones franchise.

hello darkness my old friend it is 2003 again

What's your sign?

Start a war on Iran to distract from the war on immigrants, war on federal workers, war on the American economy, war on the poor, war on Palestine protesters, war on women, war on the disabled, war on children...

I seriously think the Social Internet is 21st century cigarettes. Complete with secondary smoke causing a lot of harm in nonusers.

The older I get, the more I believe that it’s critically important not to catastrophize to the point of nihilism or despair even when you feel overwhelmed by nihilism and despair.

Anyone supporting this war gets one question from me: when are you enlisting?

Bluesky is one of the only major social media sites that still doesn't bury your posts for including news sources or outside links and lets you customize your experience to best suit your mental health. It's why there's an endless stream of opinion pieces about how it's cooked

Pretty much any song lyric I can think of by 3OH!3

The number of people arguing with this number because “Alt National Park Service said it was 11 million” is kind of staggering to me. Folks, Alt NPS is not real, okay? None of the “alt” accounts are. They don’t have special knowledge. They pulled that number out of thin air/their ass

Seen this going around but I’m Reposting it with the full alt text bc everyone deserves to read this glorious reply from Boy George

From Pittsburgh’s No Kings Protest against Trump. iykyk

there are a lot of good people in this country we will win

Of course the first complaint about protest day in the City comes from Shadyside.

If you are attending a protest today, stay safe and know your rights ⬇️

it is really weird that publishing decided that instead of having a marketing budget, writers should just become cult leaders

"Bluesky is dead" Meanwhile on Bluesky

Me: Friday the 13th is an arbitrary date to which we humans have merely attached superstitious nonsense, and is not itself bad. The news: Sure, okay.

Always feels good to beat the Cubs! #LetsGoBucs

Star Wars: Attack of the Clones Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl Thor: Ragnarok The first 2: I went through a phase in jr high. The last one: I just gotta watch every time I see it's on.

"Pham has good career numbers against Taillon." Well, you see, Jamo used to play for the Pirates and Tommy used to play for the Cardinals. So it makes sense. #LetsGoBucs

Every time I've opened this app today, the horrors are worse than the ones from a few hours before.

How I take criticism:

When a Pittsburgh Dad hits middle age, somehow a Clarks album magically appears in his music collection. Ask me how I know.

A feel good story for you

Cutch just passed Clemente on the Pirates All-Time Home Runs list. Something I didn't think was going to happen after they traded him away. #LetsGoBucs

Nice take on the ensuing state of *gestures broadly* 👇

The weird, often whitewashed way the civil rights movement is taught (or not taught) seemed to convince a lot of people that nonviolence was met with nonviolence, instead of you know, dogs, hoses, beatings, death, etc

not the main issue here but i'd really appreciate it if democratic politicians spoke out in support of big-city life and culture with the same energy and reverence that all politicians have for small towns los angeles is "real america" and so are all the other big cities the president hates

As someone who lives in Los Angeles, don’t let social or mainstream media gaslight you into thinking there’s a violent uprising taking place here. The Trump administration is trying to punish this state and this city. He’s also setting a precedent to unleash troops on Democratic cities.

Important thing to beat people over the head with: Trump has turned American cities into warzones and for fucking what? Prices are way up, jobs will be way down, the dollar is worth less, and now the highway is blocked off by cops. Maybe the Great Mythical Immigrant wasn’t the problem after all.

Those dunking on the "billionaire who's not like other billionaires; he's a cool billionaire" (AKA not as completely terrible as others) understands he's likely bitching about stagnating growth on this app because he'd like to buy it, but can't justify it without a significant user increase, right?

Pittsburghers: “Can’t wait for summer!” Pittsburgh weather:

“Oh, I’m afraid the deflector shields will be quite operational when your friends arrive.”
