Sorry to hear about David Lynch. I worked beside him (same studio) while he was making BLUE VELVET. He answered my questions about his work with grace and honesty. I especially enjoyed his deeply existential comic strip, The Angriest Dog in the World.”

The world may be crazy and chaotic, but I think we can all take a little solace in the fact that cats exist.

James Woods house burned down and he doesn't believe in Climate Change, paying tax, or funding Public Services. So it must have been an act of god.

Great letter in today's Guardian. What sort of free speech is prevented by factchecking, Zuck?

The superteams era is over. Deep rosters, versatile lineups and a relentless style of play are proving to be the best path to success. And the Cavs and Thunder are helping to prove it. More: www.nytimes.com/athletic/604...

They are taking back campaign promises faster than they made them.

Imagine watching disaster movies like The Day After Tomorrow or 2012 and thinking that the apocalyptic weather scenes were the “unrealistic” part. Turns out those scenes were almost bang on. The unrealistic part was the humans working together to overcome the problem & save the world. Sigh.

online gambling might be the latest Worst Thing Ever to become widely normalized

So, let me see if I have this straight - you maga meatheads went from “America First/America Only” to “Hell yeah we want Canada, Panama and Greenland/Manifest Destiny baby!” in the span of like a few fucking weeks, and none y’all gives a fuck about eggs or immigrants anymore?

I can’t love this more.

If your bookshelf doesn't have a cobweb-covered book that opens a hidden door when pulled, then what's the point of anything really?

Have you heard this good news? As of January 1, every single one Chicago's 400+ municipal buildings — including 98 fire stations, two international airports, and two of the largest water treatment plants on the planet — is running on 100% renewable energy grist.org/cities/chica...

Trump is an insurrectionist who has no legal right to be president, his administration is illegal; even if it wasn't he is a fascist that must be stopped. Democracy is a negotiation and if that negotiation leads to the collapse of democracy, stripping of human rights, then negotiations have failed.

Britain is paying the highest taxes ever, but has the worst Public Services because all of them have been privatised and most of your money is being stolen as profit.

I know that there's a lot of tech industry folks on this here website, and I would just like to remind all of you that the world actually functioned before the computer.

Tom Holland knows when he will retire from acting “When I have kids, you will not see me in movies anymore. Golf and dad ... I will just disappear off the face of the Earth” (via Men's Health)

I don't know who needs to know this, but Pro Publica has an online thing that will format a letter to your US health insurance company to demand the records behind a claim denial. (which the insurance is then legally required to provide in most cases) projects.propublica.org/claimfile/

It was stolen from us is right.

I knew that Audrey Hepburn was gorgeous and talented but didn’t know she was also brave and principled. What a woman! ❤️

Maybe this country isn't taking very good care of its veterans

Trying to approach 2025 the way St. Margaret is approaching Beelzebub

Congrats Trump voters, You elected an adjudicated rapist business fraud who is once again going to use the power of the presidency to extort other countries for his own financial benefit while saddling our nation with even more debt, but at least an imaginary immigrant isn’t eating your cats & dogs.

Ginger is the spice of the sky and if you don’t believe me you’ve never felt your body crave a ginger ale the moment the drinks cart appears on your flight

Mr the pope, sua santita, you claimed Russians and Ukrainians are blood brothers, but when Cain was murdering Abel, I don’t remember god buying gas from Cain

Mathematician John Conway was born #OTD in 1937. 🧪 He made broad and profound contributions across all of mathematics, but he is maybe best known by the general public for his "game of life" cellular automaton. Conway passed away in 2020, from COVID-19.
