I learned just now that little Violet Rutherford on Leave It To Beaver is Veronica Cartwright, who later appeared in Alien, The Witches of Eastwick, Invasion of the Body Snatchers, and played abductee Cassandra Spender in X-files!

Used hands down the worst sink ever today. It's a combination hand dryer and faucet, and if you attempt to get soap from the dispenser the hand dryer blows the soap away. 0/10

I ported my Rejected Virginia License Plates bot to post to Bluesky, in addition to Mastodon. If you'd like to see twice-daily license plates that the Virginia DMV has deemed inappropriate, then this is for you.

First two nights of #TribecaFestival have been awesome, Logic's Paradise Records is a worthy successor to Kevin Smith's Clerks and "The Best You Can" was a heartstring tugging romance with a lot of funny bits and heart starring two actors with crazy chemistry.

I’m not putting anyone on a pedestal but at every opportunity to be a shithead who throws marginalized people under a bus this man chooses the opposite and he’s wildly popular because of it and I don’t understand what about that isn’t clicking for other dems

Having seen the episode I can say that was without a doubt the most incomprehensible 2 hours of television that I have seen in quite some time. Waste of the Rani, waste of Belinda, Ncuti deserved better. And much like I ask if Star Trek can let Spock go, can we let Rose Tyler go?

Death threats. Islamophobic bigotry. Now a sitting Councilmember calling for my deportation. Enough. This is what Trump and his sycophants have wrought. It’s an assault on the values of our city and our Constitution. Will Cuomo condemn this or will that upset his MAGA donors?

the fact most reports are leaving out that he was killed protecting his husband during a homophobic hate crime where his dead dog's skull was placed in their mailbox as a threat is leaving some important details out i think

Jonathan Joss was MURDERED. Words matter here. He was MURDERED. it was a HATE CRIME because he is a gay Indigenous man. Say those words. Do not dance around it. He wasn't "killed in a shooting." He was murdered in a hate crime.

When I was working on the Endeavor vanity shield I started off looking at the gold/silver icons of the Endeavor perks but then soon realized it reminded me of the "yellow" Stargazer model from Picard's ready room. Then I just leaned into it, while keeping a metallic/gold feel!

Speaking as the former president of a writers' organization that had to more than once extract payment for writers from failing publishers: yuuuuup. Also, the comment elsewhere that corporations are inherently sociopaths and never your friends? Yuuuuup.

In memory of Loretta Swit, we watched "Goodbye, Farewell and Amen" last night; I'd seen it many times, but never without any commercial interruptions. I was struck how it was indistinguishable from a feature film. Runtime, obviously, but outstanding production values — and, of course, the acting.

To anyone who does shit like this, I hope to God you never find out what it's like to have early "cringey" art you started at the age of 19 paraded out in public like it's a huge moral failing & the only thing deserving of mention in your life nearly 20 years later. This shit makes me fucking angry.
