Well, at least there's no pretending going on here. #AIEthics www.rollingstone.com/politics/pol...

For some reason replaying apocalyptic video games… #DaysGone is an absolute banger. When it’s good, it’s absolutely great. #gamersofbluesky en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Days_Gone

Just finished a week of binge watching AP Bio and @pattonoswalt.bsky.social and that show is the most amazingly genius and unhinged series I have ever seen. I never thought anything could heal the void that Community left in my soul. Thank you. www.imdb.com/title/tt1490...

If you’re going to force me to look at Nazi salutes by using them as the images for the articles you publish, have the fucking decency to call it what it is. Provocative gesture? Literally what the fuck is wrong with you.

Snorted a spit-take through my nose. Wasn’t drinking anything at the time. Hurts like hell.

Don’t forget the 🤡 press that is working harder than the orange 🤡 ever did to make him seem, 🫅

This video kicks ass: youtu.be/o2jzKo1RqWU?...

I finally wrote a column about...everything. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

60 MINUTES: “Utter nonsense. The most accountable aid agency in the world is USAID… DOGE fired their top 58 officials within an hour of arriving…” This was never about efficiency. Full: www.instagram.com/reel/DGLXa9r...

Whatever… Needs 1000% more robot dinosaurs.

There’s a Drake joke here somewhere…

The Washpost, which is bleeding millions of dollars and shrinking its staff, accepted -- and then rejected -- a $115,000 ad that criticized Elon Musk. Anyway, here's the ad that the Post's business side didn't want its readers to see ⤵️ thehill.com/media/514849...

New in PN: Trump's weaponized Department of Education "The administration is already using the DOE to attack trans kids while shuttering nearly every civil rights investigation. It’s an abdication of the govt's role in protecting students from discrimination and a grim example of weaponization."

Um, the fact that we pushed towards a more tolerant society 50 years ago (despite the violence and hate pushing back at the time) is the reason why they’re going apeshit now. I’m glad you’re fighting this shiz now, but…

FFS! 𝙏𝙝𝙚𝙮 are firing National Park Service EMTs There will be no one to attend to you if you get attacked by wildlife, fall while climbing/hiking, have a skiing incident, are drowning, break a leg/arm/your neck, etc Alex Wilds is one such federal employee. Read what he's saying

my take is that your willingness to accept this gulf of america nonsense is an indicator of your willingness to accept much worse things coming from this administrator

these are segregationists.

“Diversity is better for the bottom line,” NAACP President Derrick Johnson said. “In a global economy, those who reject the multicultural nature of consumerism and business will be left in the past they are living in.” #DEI apnews.com/article/blac...

Make your calls. Go to your town halls. Ask your state and local officials what they are doing under state and local law. Rest. Hydrate. Make soup for the hungry. Don’t let people tell you that you’re doing it wrong. Not a sprint. Not a marathon. A relay. Find your team. Thank you.

Never forget them (US Airmen in Italy 1944)…

Feels like a metaphor

Discworld QOTD, from A Hat Full Of Sky "Even if it's not your fault, it's your responsibility."

I would not characterize this as “a major diplomatic breakthrough.” I would instead call it human trafficking. www.cbsnews.com/news/us-depo...

Yes, but when will he be named Assistant Head of Homeland Security?

BREAKING: The Kansas City retiree who shot Ralph Yarl after the Black teen mistakenly rang his doorbell pleads guilty to a lesser charge.

Thoughts?

"Tee-hee maybe we made a little whoopsie," giggled a nearby DOGE staffer, his peachfuzz mustache dewy with flop sweat.

Excellent from @gregsargent.bsky.social on what happened last Nov in Reading, PA. newrepublic.com/article/1908... via @newrepublic.com
