every news article lately feels like this:

Are the three peppers next to "cool" supposed to be negative spicy? Are those carrots? Extra Mild, OMG.

Murder Mystery Podcast

Hah, I was giving talks last year encouraging people to think of the big ice cube surface as a canvas after seeing some great examples. Someone wrote about the trend. vinepair.com/articles/coc...

Every person with a spectrum disorder has a more valuable life than RFK Jr, and every trans/nb person has a more valuable life than JK Rowling. You are a human with dignity and they are sunken demons

The way I randomly think about this photo...

What's fucked up is, they could've brought Kilmar back immediately, and it actually would've lent credibility to their bullshit. "See? You can trust our process. Only bad people will be punished." But they don't care about credibility. They only care about claiming and flexing more and more power.

Just to clarify. Trans Lifeline. Fantastic charity. But only covers the US and Canada. If you want to help British trans people today. Consider donating to charities like Gendered Intelligence & the LGBT foundation.

To my British friends that are trans, I’m so sorry. You are so loved and so cherished by so many. Please know that our governments don’t speak for us. There are legions of us out here in your corner.

thought i was writing a story about an app that pays crypto bounties for reporting undocumented immigrants. but i was actually writing a story about something worse: a crypto pump-and-dump disguised as an app that pays crypto bounties for reporting immigrants www.theverge.com/tech/650015/...

We are never beating the "Bluesky is full of humorless pills" allegations

I see a lot of people falling into the "this is pointless" trap, and I can only say it so many ways — though I suspect I will have to write something specifically about it on this front — but the bottom line is that we must expect compliance. Anything less is just making noncompliance easier.

Just a happy little capy snack time. 😁

As someone who grew up through a lot of "HEY. EAT THIS FOOD!" ad campaigns, I love stories about commodity checkoff programs (usually brand agnostic) and specific marketing commissions. The Simpsons joked about "The Egg Council" but there really is an American Egg Board. Buckle up for OP's thread.

Is Kilmar Abrego Garcia alive? Because the amount of resistance to addressing his being trafficked gives the distinct impression that either he is dead or what they have done to him is so unspeakable that they cannot afford for him to be freed, seen, or spoken with.

Fan tip: Don’t tell someone their idea has been done before. They know or they don’t. It doesn’t matter. What matters is that creator telling it in their own way with their own words and message and point. Everything has been done before. But not by them.

This means we’re *all* paying for this crime against humanity.

I've been having fun with @locomoto.greentiledigital.com! It's fast becoming the Sunday morning chill vibes game. urbanbohemian.com/2025/04/16/l... 🚂 🚃 💖 #blog

okay I'm gonna do mine: people aren't obligated to engage with our art and we're not *owed* views, listens, or fandoms.

THE ALBUQUERQUE ISOTOPES SCORED THREE RUNS ON A BASES-LOADED WALK AND THERE IS VIDEO

Happy for the sunshine, popping out later for a walk and grocery store trip. Gotta turn some potatoes into a side dish, and work is pretty calm so far. Also I think my mug and shirt are colluding to send a secret message. “Concret Vel”? Is that a Star Wars character? 😂

"The United States declared measles eliminated in 2000." "The virus is spreading rapidly in some parts of the country, and vaccination rates nationwide have been falling for years." If only this could have been prevented… with, y'know, the available vaccine. We're so cooked, y'all.

We wanted to add some smaller activities to our cozy train adventure Locomoto 🚂 So we added a fishing minigame!🐟 What kind of fish would you like to catch? #Indiegame #indiedev #cozygame

There are not enough professional development opportunities in the tabletop industry for tabletop professionals & hobbyists to expect as much as they do from amateurs who are trying to cut their teeth.

I've spent my money on some dumb things over the years. I've bought on shoes I've never worn. I've paid for cocktails that cost £18 and pissed them out. When I was 16 I spent all £100 of my birthday money on five DVDs, one of which was American Pie. But I've never financed a transphobic hate group.

“Just calm down and let people enjoy chatgpt.” Sorry, no. I find it creepy that folks are treating a machine that mimics human speech as their friend / therapist. It is feeding you lies. It is destroying your thinking abilities. Shut it off. Talk to other humans. Go outside.

I’m about to board my flight to El Salvador, where I hope to meet with senior government officials to discuss the return of Kilmar Abrego Garcia. I also hope to see Kilmar and check on his condition — and remind him that we won’t stop fighting until he’s home.

This is where your Harry Potter money goes

I am once again begging people to realize that the law is words on paper and is not self executing. "That's illegal" is not and has never been synonymous with "that's impossible" or "that can't be done." "That's illegal" means "you might get in trouble for that depending on who you are."

While the VCR was mostly widely accepted by 1985, a few media outlets were staring to warn of its potential dangers. While it didn't cause a nationwide panic, some people, like my grandmother, were listening. www.retroist.com/p/the-quiet-...

Star trek had a lot of hard lines over the years, but this remains the fucking hardest

Almost starting on time. I'm live on #Twitch with a look at Galactic Getaway and then hopping back into Yasuke's story in Assassin's Creed Shadows! Happy Tuesday! www.twitch.tv/urbanbohemian 💖

Choosing to not watch a TV show isn't censorship. JK Rowling will say that it is. It isn't.
