Very good and normal stuff for my brain.

RANDOM POSTER WHOSE OPINION I HAVE NO REASON TO TRUST: A result like this in NV-03 would be seismic. That’s deep Blortles country. It was Vinkum +8 in ‘24 ME DURING ELECTION SEASON: totally. i just need to look at 9000 more of these

This gets said constantly, but it worth reiterating: Games Workshop being bigger than fishing is important to shout about because you wouldn't know it from government talking points, which are rarely about anything creative or artistic. Growth won't involve fish or steel, it will involve goblins.

Also watch this.

If you like: * Shrek * Rap * The idea of aggressive confectionery Then this video is for you. I sincerely think that some of my best writing is in this. Deeply, deeply silly - BUT!...very well crafted, dammit. #poetry #gingerbread #rap #shrek5 #Shrek #spokenword

Okay, I’m two episodes in and this is delightful. It’s like Leverage, if the only character was Eliot and also he was a foot taller and Sherlock Holmes and a hobo. Season-long story, not procedural though.

now that we know how the new season of Reacher is (excellent), a thread about why you should watch What If A Man Was Large, The Show, in the form of a Q&A

A blockbuster version of that Polish LARP about the inhabitants of a trailer park on the 4th of July.

Okay but What would YOUR totally gratuitous White House lawn event be, if YOU were the mad king of a dying superpower

Happy birthday, you pedophile war criminal piece of shit.

On the eve of President Donald Trump’s highly orchestrated celebrations of his 80th birthday, protesters at S.F.'s Ocean Beach formed a human banner on Saturday, calling for the release of redacted files on convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein that reference Trump. 📸: @joshedelsonphotography

CIS PEOPLE TIME TO STEP UP it’s once again time to yell at our bad government via online comment form the FCC is trying to make trans and nonbinary content require special ratings on shows GLAAD has a good writeup on it below TELL ‘EM NO direct link to comment form: www.fcc.gov/ecfs/filings...

glaad.orgTell the FCC that LGBTQ Stories Don’t Need a Warning Label | GLAADThe Federal Communications Commission (FCC) is targeting LGBTQ stories. They are trying to control what you see on television. This government overreach is dangerous...

I actually think serving on a jury is important and I’m fine with doing it, I just could not hang with a serious trial at this point in my recovery. Hopefully the letter from my therapist will get me excused.

I will die on the hill that it's inappropriate to call Easter "Zombie Jesus Day." Zombie is not a generic term for undead - it has a specific meaning. We HAVE a generic term for beings who have returned compos mentis from death in their original, physical bodies: Revenants.

It’s fun to pretend. Wring whatever tarnished shreds of bitter joy you can from this hellscape.

did It Happen? no, of course not but the periodic weekend “maybe It’s Happening” rumor mill is an important mental health salve, carry on

Any actual pitch for a serious opposition party against the modern GOP has to go beyond promising to stop Trump and also include taking all of Musk, Thiel, Andreessen, Horowitz, Zuckerberg, and everyone else of their ilk's money, nationalizing anything useful they've made and putting them in a pit.

I expect the Harry Potter show will be popular, at least for a while, and the extremism of the author will be minimized. If this comes to pass, I suggest practicing these phrases: "No, I haven't heard about it." "Isn't that for, uh, 11 year olds?" "So... you're really still into that? Uh. OK."

The size of the screen must be proportional to the size of the purchase. This is why millennials have such a hard time buying houses.

Johnathan Perkins@johnathanperk.bsky.social

Somebody said millennials usually use their laptops (instead of smartphones) for major purchases, including booking flights. I can’t stop thinking about this.

I’m increasingly less convinced we ought to have borders of any kind, but as long as we do, yeah, open that shit up, it’s just lines on a map.

Today’s protest art is dedicated to the lady sitting next to me at dinner who interrupted my conversation about protest art to tell me she didn’t agree with us and demand we change the subject.

Oops.

To anyone that needs clarification, "your best" is what you can accomplish without damage to your physical, mental and emotional health, not what you can accomplish by destroying them

I have always known that my place in my community, my career, and my art is dependent on a cis man of equal or greater rank not deciding he has the right to assault me. I hate this knowledge. But I am not unique in holding it.

When world leaders and billionaires just can’t behave like adults, I remember all the life lessons taught to me by Star Trek: - bigotry is wrong - patience and teamwork can overcome almost any issue - SHOOT ANYONE CLAIMING TO BE GOD IN THE FACE - computers are all the same woman

/7 I don’t think these people encouraged Epstein to rape more children. I don’t think Epstein needed encouragement. But they did send him an unmistakable message: raping children is not a deal-breaker for notable, powerful and influential people to have a relationship with you.

I'll repeat my ask to Democratic Senators here: don't vote for the DHS funding bill, yes. AND ALSO do not vote for another single thing in the United States Senate until the invasion and occupation of Minnesota ends. Don't vote to name a post office, dedicate a road, or even a procedural motion
