It's been 30 years of A Goofy Movie, and 31 years since we briefly lived in Paris while my dad worked on it! Truly one of the coolest things as a kid, to hang out at the studio or watch pencil tests over dinner.♥️ Also eternally grateful to mom for secreting away a bunch of original model sheets:

turns out the United States was an incredible moneymaking engine that ran on wokeness

Penguins have got to stop sending fentanyl to the U.S.

Goodbye Skype! Microsoft is officially shutting down Skype in May 2025. Skype GUI in 2003 ↘️

Once again, Elon is reinventing the thing he first moved to destroy, and doing so in a dumber, less efficient way. We see this over and over and over again.

Slack is down! Now's our chance. Boot up AOL Instant Messenger and tell everyone this is the new chat. Come on people we've been training for this

Around 35% of SpaceX’s revenue comes directly from the federal govt. Less than 1% of NPR’s budget comes from the federal govt.
