Notice how Super Mario and all his supposed “enemies” are happy to get together and go go-kart racing? Wake up. It’s all kayfabe

Every comic creator's obituary is like, he created this iconic character who was in a movie that made $700 million last year. He died with a net worth of $12 after the publisher countersued him.

Look, I know the world is burning right now, but @nbatnt.bsky.social is the greatest TV show (YOU HEARD ME) of all time and it is a crime against humanity that this is their last playoff run.

Amazing how many truly all-time great teams in the ‘90s like the Blazers, Knicks, and yes, my beloved SuperSonics, were denied a title because of those goddamned Bulls.

This by @jadomian.bsky.social &co works as a public service. If you need 77 minutes of hilarious catharsis about our present laughing at Elon Musk, RFK Jr., Kristi Noem, Tulsi Gabbard, Eric Adams and the Nazi DOGE teenagers this is your show.

This game gave me extreme motion sickness every time I played it. 5/5 stars

Nice to see longtime Sonics assistant Terry Stotts still in the NBA but do the Warriors really need TEN assistant coaches?! #nbaplayoffs

Robin Williams dropped in on a comedy show I was doing. I told him how I dressed up as Mork every day in 2nd grade and he gently put his arm around my shoulder and said “I am so sorry.” ❤️

new gender neutral greeting just dropped

Normal cat: Meow! My cat: Me owl!

Stop Forcing A.I. Into Every Fucking Thing!

If I was a person involved in exiling a two year old child with cancer to another country I would simply walk into the ocean and never return

Nuggets/Clippers ending reminded me of the best game-winner in Seattle SuperSonics history. youtu.be/_zJGrWrY_Jk?...

Since we’re in a golden age of new Star Wars tv shows, I’ll again pitch “David Attenborough style nature documentaries but of fictional Star Wars creatures.” No empire. No Jedi. Like, what the Jedi would watch on tv to relax after a stressful mission.

Look, if you want your Pope to last longer, you don’t pick one who’s already got 200,000 miles on ‘em. That’s just common sense.

I feel like we are pushing back pretty hard against facism and fucking up their plans more than I thought we’d be able to. Things are really bad, obviously. But we have to keep obstructing everywhere we can, especially because dem leaders are worthless. We the people are not powerless.

“It’s amazing that others in this room underwrote electing a man who, in the last week, single-handedly destroyed all of American science. It’s amazing how much good science you can destroy with $320 million and RFK Jr, very fast.” — Seth Rogen’s censored remarks presenting the Breakthrough Prize

I want a candidate in 2028 to create a vague impression that they will do Obama style looking forward not back admin, and then once in power put these people in jail and possibly give them the death penalty.

People who voted for Jill Stein, or were so far-left they couldn't bring themselves to even vote at all, have been rounded up by ICE agents and sent to Mar-a-Lago for a thank you brunch.

The wellness industry is killing animals, spreading disease, and fueling the next pandemic

I say this as a historian — history will remember you utterly failing to meet the challenge of this moment. At the rate you’re going, “Schumer” is going to end up somewhere between “Chamberlain” or “Quisling”

REI stumped for this guy and his widdle snacks

Oops. Went to the Hands On rally on accident. Just me and Jeffrey Toobin. 🤷🏼‍♂️

i know things were popping off in the Timberwolves/Pistons game but sheesh

I think the biggest surprise at the Oscars this year was that the funny parts were all intentional for once.

Tonight's Best Film winner, Anora, was given an incredible spotlight by Seattle's @grandillusioncinema.org, who needs donations and support while looking for a new physical home. A quiet room for a community of art lovers to take in a quality 35mm print: We need spaces like that more than ever.

They both “take care” of the place while The Master is away…

Was so busy at my corporate office job today that I accidentally participated in the national retail boycott. Take that, fascism!

Tonight on The Rockford Files (s3e17), ISAAC HAYES PUNCHES NAZIS.

Wish I were one of Elon's kids so I'd never see him again

Sharing again. Sorry for the self-promo. I’m really proud of this book and the complete Warner history is a hell of a story! They battled Edison, bankers, the Great Depression, domestic Nazis, gangsters, and everything in between!

DOGE is like if Fyre Festival was a government agency.

It’s Noir City time @noircity.bsky.social at @siffnews.bsky.social SIFF Cinema Downtown with THE PHANTOM LADY (1944).

Oh damn Prime actually published their failed chatgpt prompt in the description

Maybe I wasn’t clear about this. I wanted more egg and no plane crash, not many plane crash and no egg.
