RIP Gene Hackman. If you're one of those people who scrambles to watch an actor's work when they die, you're in for a good week (or month).

Classroom/Library enrollment was down pretty bad in February. National chaos and uncertainly likely has something to do with it. Can you help me make sure that all the educators on bluesky know Skype a Scientist exists and is ready to connect them with scientists? Every RT helps! #EduSky #STEMEd

chat is it good for a dictionary to be mad at you

i am 100% of the belief that simply forcing take-writers to answer the question "who specifically said this and why are they significant" would result in substantially fewer bad takes circulating in the world

I feel like I'm going insane every time I see a media story about DOGE that doesn't also mention the fact that the Government Accountability Office exists and performs the exact function that DOGE pretends to, only in a credibly constitutional, non-partisan, and conflict-of-interest-free manner

Fascinating profile of a park ranger in San Francisco who works with unhoused residents and has adopted the novel tactic of treating them like human beings, building relationships, and helping them access resources on their own timeline.

You are fantastic. You are a Halloween-themed breakfast cereal. You are Medusa's favorite hair-snake. You are a hatching moon. You are a Scholastic book fair for cryptids in an ancient forest.

I'm reviewing applications for our Science IRL grant. The application pool is stupendous with a lot of fantastic & frankly weird ideas for how to connect people w/critical science info. I want to be able to fund more than we currently can. Wanna throw a few bucks at the pool? givebutter.com/29Ow9Y

This is one of the funniest videos I've ever seen in my life

#GalentinesDay

You can do it. I’m staring at you supportively because I believe in you

Sen. Elizabeth Warren addresses Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB) shutdown protest: "For every American who doesn't want some weird Elon Musk suck-up searching through your personal private data, this is your fight."

Always anchor your TVs and furniture to the wall.

we are unfortunately experiencing a giant wave of "Bluesky is for talking about Twitter." it's not. you wanna talk about Twitter you know how to get there, live your truth! Bluesky is for the following things: 1) good jokes 2) interesting or useful information 3) hog on main

That's why we do it. Stay safe out there. Stay alive.

(Checks to see if my publisher is part of this suit) FUCK YEAH MACMILLAN GET THESE MOFOS www.theguardian.com/books/2025/f...

We are members of Congress at the Treasury Department. We want to be let in to provide oversight on behalf of our constituents. @jasmineforus.bsky.social @sethmagaziner.bsky.social

We were just told that they won’t let us in. They are denying entry to 2 dozen members of Congress. Elon Musk has all our private information & we have no idea what he’s doing with it. This is happening completely behind closed doors. HELL NO. It’s illegal. We demand oversight!

Crockett: What we’re not going to do is stand around while they pull this bullshit that they’re trying to pull right now

YES! Chuck, where do you live? Can you call your Senator?

@corybooker.com hello I used to run the Wendy’s Twitter account and I am begging you to let me help you with the dems social media strategy, I will literally do it for free at this point

A lot of shit is hitting the fan today so I’m just gonna throw it out there that you don’t have to internalize every single thing and it’s ok to log off and protect your heart. You don’t have to traumatize yourself with the firehouse of monstrous developments.

it's been a rough week so i thought i'd rotate a gyro for everyone. as a treat

just want to take a step back from the relentless churn of news to recognize how fucking terrifying things are for trans people right now. and i just want to say that i will always fight for you—in my capacity as a journalist and as a human being—and i’m here for whatever the trans community needs.

Just donated to Trans Lifeline to help our friends and family being persecuted by this new regime. IF you have some $ to spare, please consider doing likewise? Even a few bucks helps. But if not, some real LOUD support from the cis community would also be great. ❤️ link: translifeline.org/donate/

Everybody check on your group chats. It’s rough out here.

That first Strokes album though.

'Love Shack' is the most cheerful banger you'll ever hear that also could be describing the location where all the horrific stuff went down in a season of TRUE DETECTIVE.

I sometimes thinking about this Canon ad with Godzilla at a copy machine when I’m feeling sad

“There’s still this idea that news is only ‘real’ once it’s confirmed by big corporate outlets. After all, could one woman with absolutely zero institutional backing in leggings and a sweatshirt in her NYC apartment really be the one to break such an important story? Now we know the answer is yes.”

Thank goodness: after an outpouring of public dissent, Lackland reversed its terrible decision and will thankfully be teaching recruits about the Tuskegee airmen and the Women Airforce Service Pilots again. A reminder that we must always push back: www.expressnews.com/news/article...

If you are a federal employee, it is advised to set your social media accounts to private to prevent outside viewership, as reports suggest that loyalty screenings have begun.

Mods are asleep post random images from Cunk on Earth

Bring back software that makes me feel like any of the people in this photo

130 packs sold 🟩🟨⬜️⬜️⬜️⬜️⬜️⬜️⬜️⬜️ Tell ur friends. They need Bug facts and cute art.

Just making sure that everyone is aware of this crab that NOAA scientists found

it’s bad and it’s gotten exponentially worse in the past 6 months. if you write anything involving deep research/old books/forgotten periodicals you’re probably noticing “wiki creep,” because it’s one of the few resources left standing. the internet as an archive is disappearing, has disappeared.

one thing i’m stuck on is this idea that “masculine” energy means license to act like a chud in public, as opposed to more traditional notions of public masculinity, such as those that put a premium on the performance of integrity, honesty, honor and generosity.

RIP Bob Uecker. Never forget the time he and Bob Gibson got in trouble for holding hands during the team photo.

These posts are so much funnier with this labeler

A brief thread on alt-text. Alt text is descriptive text that conveys the meaning of an image. It's designed to make visual content accessible to people with vision disabilities. When a person uses assistive technology such as a screen reader, the screen reader will read the onscreen text aloud 1/7

Please look at this baby capybara whose name is Tupi.

Please look at this armadillo named Wilson running on his treadmill.

Four years since my son wrote the best opening to a mystery novel ever written.

I really hope at some point the rightwing victimhood thing rings hollow because we’re at the point now where they have the Supreme Court, 99.9% of billionaires, the house, the senate, the presidency, and they’re going “you know who is oppressing us now? The deaf”

🔊 PSA for nondisabled people 🔊 It's time to step the FUCK up if you wanna be an ally. ASL interpretation is being targeted by right wing cry baby douchebags. Shut this shit down when you see it. SPEAK UP. This barrage of ASL hate is heavier than usual.
