::listening to the most vulgar opera I've ever heard:: Ha, I wonder what @jenmillerradio.bsky.social would think of this? en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jerry_S...

ClassicalCalifornia playlist challenge: make a stream that *doesn't* include Canon in D. Status: apparently, impossible

AI’s sales pitch has drifted steadily from “We can generate cool stuff!” to “We will overwhelm and smother cool stuff through sheer blunt quantity until we are all that’s left”

Some important new government policy that Native Americans might be interested in:

Everything is terrible but comics and board games and you nerds are helping me keep it together. THANKS, NERDS.

@jenmillerradio.bsky.social Heard you mention Thursday morning about Arcade 2.0 and have been meaning to congratulate you ever since! 🎉🎊 I know things are rough in the not-so-publicly funded world right now so I was wondering if the streams would even be continued. EXPANSION was a happy surprise!

Oh, what the fuck?!? All my published academic papers are in here. Somehow when I heard, “authors,” I forgot about myself and academic work.

We recognize that Britney Spears was pilloried in the public eye as a child star becoming a young woman, picked apart, laughed at, and we wanted a reckoning. Now I don't know much about Jojo Siwa but all the same my feed is full of people being pointedly cruel to her as though she deserves it.

Happy Pi Approximation Day from @qwantz.com and @ryannorth.ca

@dinosaurdracula.bsky.social Saw these "toxic" candles at TJ Maxx and thought of you and those melts you keep putting in the boxes. Available scents were Radioactive Goo, Goblim Slime, and Zombie Ooze.

When I was a kid, one of my favorite words was "discombobulated" because it was fun to say. As an adult, one of my favorite words is "discombobulated" because that describes my current state most of the time.

Ag is a real job. It takes real skills, knowledge, & people who gaf about what they're doing. Stop treating agriculture like society's dumping ground.

I really hate how gator imagery is being used in fascism. Gators don’t answer to anyone. No you can’t feed undesirable populations to gators. They don’t work that way. They don’t take orders. You people know nothing about gators and it annoys me.

Read the whole thread.

"thanks but i'm too [x] for criticism right now" is SUCH the perfect response to any criticism, especially when you replace [x] with "attractive", that i hesitate to release it into the wild. but i'm too attractive for any criticism right now qwantz.com/index.php?co...

they never miss

It’s clear that @timtoon.com only reads the best articles. 👾🎶

just not made for the modern internet... if you send me a thousand-word article i'll probably read it, but if it's a 30-second video i'm putting that shit off until 2079

@jenmillerradio.bsky.social Oh hey, did Arcade get updated again? I haven't listened to the stream in a while, then today I got a bunch of new-to-me tracks all in a row, including Pokemon RBY :D

You were warned, America

As the country hurtles headlong into fascism, I do wish people would point the blame at the REPUBLICANS who are voting for it and actively enabling Trump, rather than the Democrats who gave it their all during the election but couldn't overcome the worldwide post-Covid demand for regime change

I just feel like you’re not watching the right teevee. There is no dancing and I have yet to hear a song

*looks into the camera like I'm on The Office*

@jenmillerradio.bsky.social Any idea why this year's "new" Mozart music got a ton of coverage but almost no one remembers the Christmas pastiche he dropped in 1987? 😁 www.youtube.com/watch?v=Bf0T...

It is like having the goose that lays the golden eggs and discovering that the price of gold is kinda low, but the modeling fees for a sexy goose saying “Got gold?” are through the roof.

Earnest post, but: a thing I like here is it’s okay to have moments of happiness in public without being broadly scolded, and I believe that sustaining this kind of humanity will be very important as we resist fascism. We have to sustain each other. Making joy isn’t denial, it’s how we will survive

I will say as I get settled in here, it's lovely looking up accounts I followed on Twitter but haven't heard from in a long time, and seeing them active and posting new things. It's like reuniting with a friend. :) A friend I've never talked to irl and who doesn't know me from adam, but - a friend.
