Reports of outages across the internet made Hulu a lock for Worst Streamer of a Popular Awards Show. www.avclub.com/hulu-ends-os...

Put the State of the Union on Hulu.

Looking at Hulu rn

Hulu ruining the Oscars is really poetic coming after Sean Bakerā€™s speech about streaming services killing the movies

Over the years, Musk and his businesses have received at least $38 billion in government contracts, loans, subsidies and tax credits, often at critical moments, a Washington Post analysis has found, helping seed the growth that has made him the worldā€™s richest person.

Just going to leave this here should it become useful to anyoneā€¦

In major escalation, Israel carries out heavy strikes on Syria. Netanyahu is violently threatening the country's sovereignty & deploying his occupation forces deeper. Syria also faces domestic instability, uncertainty, U.S. sanctions. Ground report šŸ”½ www.dropsitenews.com/p/israel-lau...

Yes. Every Sunday (If I am not shooting a film) a few friends and I get together and paint model kits. We start at 9:00 AM and I post the process here at BSKY. Feel free to join us (I only post my models, not the others).

Massive protests in the US as the country faces an ongoing coup dā€™Ć©tat by the Trump regime and his oligarch cabal headed by Musk. Countless people are standing up to fascism proving the US will not go quietly. #3E #USprotests #fiftyfiftyone #Feb17 (šŸŽ„ @vuralelibol.bsky.social )

I'm warm and in a house. Open Table Nashville seeks to help fellow Nashvillians who aren't. We'll vouch for this org. Giving feels good. And it's going to be extremely cold this week.

She should get Bloomberg to do the job until November.

All 50 US States protested today but you wouldnā€™t know it unless you are on BlueSky. Remember to keep reaching out for others to join. This movement is going to get a lot bigger and we need all hands on deck. You are not alone. #3E #USprotests

Highly recommend following this YouTuber @ydubs.bsky.social who made a really excellent video on why thereā€™s no alt-left pipeline youtu.be/y8wD2d9uKg4?...

Exemplarity inspires solidarity. Leading by example shows others what is possible and creates a ripple effect of unity and action. Be the spark that ignites collective strength.

Last week, President Trump pardoned Ross Ulbricht, the founder of the online black market Silk Road and a hero to crypto-holders. What does this signal for the future of crypto?

Elon Musk's anti-remote work crusade is so funny to me this is the guy with the vision for the future? he wants to go to Mars, why? so you can sit in an office cubicle from 9 to 5 but you're doing it on the Red Planet? lol

How can anyone in their right mind ignore this letter from Caroline Kennedy about her cousin, RFK Jr.?

Itā€™s Girl Scout cookie seasonā€¦so if youā€™re thinking of getting some please consider Girl Scout Troop 6000, which is entirely made up of girls living in NYC homeless shelters www.girlscoutsnyc.org/en/discover/...

Caroline Kennedy stepped out of the shadows and onto social media to assail her cousin, Robert F. Kennedy Jr., on the eve of his Senate hearing.

@jimacosta.bsky.social Is Jim the only one with balls in this country?

Todayā€™s show was my last at CNN. My closing message: Itā€™s never a good time to bow down to a tyrantā€¦ donā€™t give in to the lies. Donā€™t give in to fear. Hold on to the truthā€¦ and hope.

This is really interesting. Groundbreaking study on the value of libraries and ā€œthird places.ā€ ā€œA whopping 82% of people who used the libraryā€™s physical space and 79% of people who physically attended programs reported more optimism regarding the future, compared to only 58% of digital-only users.ā€

When we see streets as primarily space to move cars, we miss out on the wonderful places that streets can be. And our cities are much less successful for it. RotenturmstraƟeā€™s before-&-after transformation in #Vienna via @birgithebein.bsky.social HT @liorsteinberg.bsky.social #StreetsForPeople

Well now that thereā€™s no more DEI, who are mediocre underperforming white guys gonna blame for their lack of professional advancement?

There were better shows on Netflix when it cost $10 a month

"Americans love to walk. Los Angeles teaches us this, too. When Walt Disney designed Disneyland in 1955, he astutely made its centerpiece a walkable street, with pedestrian priority everywhere: Main Street USA." @norton.bsky.social usa.streetsblog.org/2025/01/21/w...

Now is a great time to read WIRED magazineā€™s 2015 feature story, ā€œThe Untold Story of Silk Road.ā€ There were good reasons why Ross Ulbricht was serving a double life sentence. www.wired.com/2015/04/silk...

Food for thought.

The TikTok ban permanently reshapes the ideological tilt of the online creator landscape towards the right. Cheering for it in any way is extremely shortsighted www.usermag.co/p/the-great-...

I just had a great few weeks in Japan. Among (many) revelations, I was inspired by the through-running regional trains onto metro lines (eg, Odakyu Odawara regional line onto the Tokyo Metro Chiyoda Line). I thought it was going to be complicated, but it's self-intuitive & good for riders.

Wisdom from his many years.

Yep, Iā€™ll remember that 8-OT instant classic between Georgia and Georgia Tech for a long time. Wowie.

Was going to bed early last night, but then Georgia-Georgia Tech happened. What a crazy, 8OT game.

Iā€™m so old I remember when the Georgia game started

I know Georgia beating Georgia Tech isn't an upset but you should rush the field after 8 overtimes just to avoid deep vein thrombosis

NORWAY: ā€œDespite winding back some tax benefits, EVs accounted for 94% of new car sales in October ā€” almost 2x Chinaā€™s rate ā€” putting the country within reach of a goal to stop adding combustion engines next year.ā€ Norway is on the cusp of an all-EV car market. www.bloomberg.com/features/202...
