Did anybody else have people in their lives say that maybe Trump was faking the conservative thing and that he would pull a "gotcha" after the first election, despite clearly telegraphing everything he wanted to do for years? Yeah I think about that a lot.

The tragedy of art’s greatest supermodel The extraordinary story of the legendary beauty Lizzie Siddal is both surprising and tragic, and led to a strange myth that persists today. Lucinda Hawksley explores her legacy.

simply not possible to have one thousand million dollars without horrific greed, it takes something fundamental from you. or you're just born into it (horrible fate, akin to being born in purgatory)

I would argue that the length of time she kept her head was unusually short enough that we're still talking about her to this day.

Not naming names bc the channel seems fun, but a video describing Jane Boleyn having kept her head "longer than most" in the Tudor court did just make me do the highest octane double take possible. Like considering the status of most people's heads at the time, I don't think that's truuuuuue bestie.

I was going to make the joke that she was blinking SOS but I thought, "Nah that's too stupid." WELL.

do i have any mutuals who are personally familiar with living organ donation? The thing I am scripting about has to do with a very high profile kidney donation but I feel like it might be beneficial to talk to somebody who has any level of experience in that arena. let me know!! Love u

I need to use this for something #Spidey

Fans Call on Taylor Swift to ‘Do Better’ After Accusations of Using AI for Promo Videos A scavenger hunt campaign to promote Taylor Swift’s new album, “The Life of a Showgirl,” resulted in a viral #SwiftiesAgainstAI campaign.

So, as part of Taylor Swift's album rollout, there was a scavenger hunt involving videos that looked *really* AI-generated. So #SwiftiesAgainstAI became a thing and now the videos are impossible to find. Fandom outrage can be good!

Stand with Ahmeed's Family: Rebuild their future in Gaza My name is Ahmeed Mateer, and I am 27 years old. Because of the ongoing war in Gaza, I feel the need to share my story and that of my family. We have been forced to leave our home more than five times...

I have no faith they're actually going to do anything interesting with it, but the second Wicked movie being called For Good and the marketing emphasizing Elphie and Glinda's relationship does have me like 👀

We continue to ween despite it all

When you go outside for some fresh air but outside is still the internet

The series includes a plotline on Gein's growing obsession with Jorgensen – but was Christine Jorgensen a real person? And was Ed Gein really fixated on her? We detail the true facts...

"was this extremely famous trans woman a real person? Cosmopolitan puts on their reporter hats"

Youtube has been flooding me with "a day in Atlanta" videos and I'm like...okay thanks I do know what that's like. Intimately you could say. Can you try reccing me interesting videos about other topics, or--? No okay five more Atlanta tours.

"Oh my god this Temu listing for a $45 desktop from a seller using an AI photo for their profile turned out to be a broken piece of shit??? Who could have predicted this."

I really can't get over how many videos are dedicated to a 22 year old debut author writing about what you'd expect from a 22 year old debut author, only for people to get furious at her for spending their own money without seeing a writing sample.

Travis Kelce just scored a touchdown, and I'm glad for him, he needed a win this week

It’s wild how much hate people get for pointing out that Taylor Swift’s mass market lyricism and artistry about white heterosexual womanhood do in fact reflect and contribute to the sociopolitical culture we all share. Certain types of fandom are actively hostile to cultural critique!

Whenever I see the Phillies trending I'm like "oh no what did we do now", like the headlines are for sure going to be the fans tearing out light poles and carrying them around for enrichment.

I struggle to care about what taylor swift is doing but I'm glad you kids are having fun.

Thinking about the @lindsayellis.bsky.social video where she noted how white nationalists co-opted American history X and all these other “strong” critiques but can’t handle “Springtime for Hitler” because of how ridiculous it makes them look

Has anyone asked how Lorde feels
