Okay, I'm going to need @alyankovic.bsky.social to do a rendition of "This is America" called "Gulf of America."

On a scale of 0 to Palpatine, they just cancelled the JEDI.

Don't know where this is all going, but it's definitely not a blip.

This one.

Also the teaser is funny cause it's like Fantastic Four family family family action build-up action MALKOVICH action action reveals...

Bumping this with the hope that a senator might see it

I don't think he's going to wait around for an excuse.

This is unironically good advice, if you've been putting off a Covid or flu shot for some reason, or really any immunization, now's a great time to see your doctor or stroll over to CVS

Good. These moves are horrifying.

I like how much the Fantastic Four basically looks and feels like The Incredibles, which was basically a riff on the FF.

And a tip for Android phones - if you have an image you didn't create that has text, you can quickly open it in Lens to directly copy the text from it. Not sure if you can do anything similar on iPhones.

Hints of how bad it was going to be was the productivity talk by Musk and focus on "good/bad genes" by Trump.

My first and definitely last time working with the Los Angeles Times. Editing out the most urgent point of an OpEd in the minutes before sending to press while then also assigning a title and image that suggest an argument entirely opposite to the author’s clear intent is pretty shitty.

One of the most disgusting parts of Trump's comments today about disabled people is that his rambling nonsense will now be defended by his people in the press, who will repeat that ableist rhetoric as if true. And then his supporters will do the same in comments across the internet.

Can't wait. Love that this title is from (I presume) Nemik's Manifesto.

I think I'm going to have to log off of the internet for a bit before the news cycle breaks my brain entirely. Hundreds of millennia of human evolution have not provided us the cognitive tools required to process this level of administrative chaos.

"Slaves owe us reparations" This is literally a joke from Anthony Jeselnik's latest special. The special where he's performing in his usual style of portraying an absolute heartless monster with a litany of (hilariously funny) bad takes to point out the complete absurdity coming from these groups.

That’s it, I’m done.

She called for kindness and mercy.

Verified domain handles on Bluesky are fun.

Ahmed's gonna be there for the Sabered Hand movie announcement, right? 🤞🏻

The TikTok ban is the crowning culmination of years of inexcusable ignorance by our government about social platforms and how tech functions at the most basic level. They've had decades to figure this out and simply have no clue. This own goal will hurt the populace and empower autocrats. Well done.
