"Through his years of observing, photographing — and often miniaturizing — work by graffiti artists, he's become a fan of certain artists' work. "One of my favorite ones is called 'Mr. HBAK,'" says Davis. "'HBAK' stands for 'Hell Bred A Killer.'" www.southdakotamagazine.com/writers-of-t...

Paul Wells’ latest column about Pierre Poilievre is a perfect example of how media fails to meet the current moment. Written with the kind of blinders only available to white dudes in positions of power, it's an trash piece that should have been left on the cutting room floor: youtu.be/VkCwdYGMszk

I sit corrected.

I was at #Herculaneum today. So here’s one of Hercules’ victims: the renewable-headed hydra. A copy of this intricate 2000 year old bronze fountain stands in a cave off the Herculaneum palaestra. The original is in the site’s museum, sadly no longer spitting watery venom from its many mouths 🏺🐍🏛️

One year ago today NYC lost the beloved Flaco. 🪶

Warm afternoon in Austin and I found a newly-emerged Ophion searcher wasp under the live oak.

i gasped and also no lies detected.

if you're reading this 50 years from now I need you to know that this series of world events isn't as dumb as it probably seems, it's actually much, much dumber than you can possibly imagine

Remarkable assessment by an incoming German chancellor. “for me it is an absolute priority to strengthen Europe as quickly as possible, so that we achieve independence from the US, step by step.” www.dw.com/en/german-el...

My mom just tried marijuana medicinally. I got a message from her very seriously saying, "I think I made an important discovery. The discovery is that my short term memory isn't."

OK Diefenbaker, go off

For those following the story of unidentified men violently dragging a protester from a local Idaho GOP meeting, it turns out they were from a private security firm called LEAR Asset Management. But neither the sheriff (who watched it all go down) or the GOP will take responsibility for hiring them.

my husband's friend has been texting the group chat all day about his new smoker and this brisket he's smoking in it and just now, at 8 pm, he texted them "i think i accidentally bought a corned beef"

Let’s play What’s Classy if You’re Rich, Trashy if You’re Poor: - Waving a chainsaw around and rambling incoherently (presumably on drugs) while your multiple baby mamas are posting on social media that you haven’t contacted them in months

I’m not doomscrolling I’m just desperately sucking the marrow from the bones of hope

Let’s gooooo…ate down 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

How was this ten years ago good grief

CBC news had to turn all the live comments off on its Cross Country Check-up streams because Canadians would not stop complaining to @ianhanomansing.bsky.social about his topic choice. That’s when you know they really don’t care what Canadians think.

In military training, I was taught to imagine dark plausible scenarios and contingency plan or proactively counter. One problem I sense today is that cognitive dissonance from trusting eroding institutions rejects exploring dark plausible scenarios. This creates vulnerable blind spots.

i once saw a man post one thousand times in a day. it broke and shattered him but at least he took the challenge with honor in his heart. elon approaches that velocity only through nightmarish transformations of his being

These researchers are shocked that Google's AI spat out a result that they worked on for years on but haven't published. My question is, did they ever email about it using Gmail? Put it in a Google Doc? The idea that Google hasn't trained its AIs on everything they have access to seems naive to me.

Obviously this is not the correct answer to “what did you do last week,” but if you knew it was a bunch of junior gamergaters asking you to justify your real job in public service, it would certainly be tempting to respond “yer mom”

"listen up, you piece of shit" - seven clunky syllables - disrespectful - sets a weird tone "hark, shitpiece" - three sleek syllables - salutation-flavoured - calls listener in to the community of shitpieces

The special is called "51st State: A Cross Border Conversation". Not "American Invasion", or "Violent Annexation", because those might frighten people. No, better to use the framing of the man who's threatening us. We wouldn't want to be rude by spotlighting the violence those threats imply.

Life in a glasshouse

Gretzky Isn't you or me. He's an outrageously wealthy hockey hero who has decided that he'd rather support the annexation of Canada than be a national hero. And that, kids, is how you lose a whole ton of good faith.

Elon’s busy schedule today is claiming astronauts were left in the ISS for political reasons, getting corrected by an ISS astronaut, throwing a fit where he calls the astronaut a slur, then complaining that we should deorbit the ISS

As always, @chriswarcraft.bsky.social is a real one.

I have absolutely no idea what I’m supposed to do with this information
