Like many others I assumed this was funny hyperbole -- "call in the national guard!" type of thing -- but no it's a description of events.

It’s incredible the things you don’t realize are sacred until you can no longer rely on them

Guillermo Del Toro dropping another one liner that’s exactly how I feel about AI slop, the “punishment” is built in

Everything these guys do to avoid the billionaire’s’ tax is going to radicalize people to vote for it www.nytimes.com/2026/10/21/t...

The first genuinely honest ad for generative AI I've ever seen, from Microsoft / CoPilot A mediocre white guy sees his non-white colleague getting praised for good work, he asks AI to *literally copy it*, and then he gets all the praise instead: www.ispot.tv/ad/SoDi/micr...

when you’re being mean to me this is who you’re being mean to

Textures and colour to brighten up a grey Tuesday. A little side angle taken from my last embroidery… 🪡🌿🌺 Don’t worry I’m busy dreaming up the next. 😉 #stitchedart #embroidery #thesewingsongbird

i have fallen victim to one of the common blunders: turning on the Valks game in the middle of dinner prep

no, YOU’RE feeding the stray cat again that pretty much lives in your yard now

42% of Americans with cancer deplete their life savings within two years. Breaking Bad was a documentary

Confirmed ICE has a detainee at Highland Hospital. They’ve been here since Friday night.

Hey California! Be careful this election because the big money creeps are trying to trick you (again).

This is Tommy. Tommy had a question about my allegiances. Listen to the end to hear about his.

This is inspiring in the way that kids running a lemonade stand to pay for their friend's chemotherapy is inspiring: the kids are amazing but they should never have to do this. if this inspires you at all, let it inspire you to create a real right to vote so they can just vote on campus.

Everyone I’m doing a special movie night with me and my 5yo tonight WHAT SHOULD WE WATCH I NEED IDEAS

My teenage children, who have never set foot in NYC, go around saying "Help me, Mamdani!" whenever anything goes wrong and/or they can't figure out their homework, just to give everybody a sense of the scale of this man's presence in the culture lol

95 hours of my Dartmoor inspired moorland scene are done! This is the last full update you'll see of this aerial embroidery until its complete now, maybe 20 more hours? I've decided the tor-based area of the landscape will be sloped so I need to work on the little hill :) 1/2
