That was amazing. A+

I didn’t manage to get to read this in time, awww

Yankees paid tribute to Charlie Kirk? Well the Blue Jays have Alejandro Kirk.

"RFK Should Not Resign" -The Measles

Everyone involved with the immersive WIZARD OF OZ should be forced to spend several days in an immersive RETURN TO OZ

Oh this is sad. Everyone sing together: 🎶 "The X-Files is a show/ With music by Mark Snow" 🎶

Huh. What an interesting intersection of things I independently love

Most people think the theremin is just for aliens, maybe ghosts. Only Brian Wilson had the true vision that it could also be for summertime sweetheart jams

A message from Carl Sagan from 1995—some of his last prophetic words.

Thx @99pi.org + @romanmars.bsky.social for re-airing/updating one of my fave eps about a secret apartment in a Providence shopping mall. Prompted me to find Jeremy Workman’s doc - it really hit a lot chords for me on public art, gentrification and fed my inner rebellious spirit. Highly recommended.

European Spa Company Therme Misrepresented Itself in an Effort to Expand Into Canada (Gift Article) A Times investigation shows Therme, a European firm, exaggerated its track record in securing a deal with Ontario, and government auditors found that the process had been unfair and opaque.

therme doesn’t even have enough equity to purchase a 1500sqft house in toronto let alone a megaspa worth taxpayers’ billions or the life of 900 trees

Want more? At @spacingstore.bsky.social , @johnlorinc.bsky.social has been investigating Therme for years (harassed by their hench-comms). Go back thru his archive. Maybe the NYT will wake more up in Ontario who shrug at Cdn reporting.

That was pretty great, haha

#handsoff My niece in Boston.

Nick Rivers is forever the greatest and most underrated Val Kilmer performance amongst many great performances in his career, at least in my heart anyways. Acting backwards, fighting underwater, singing and dancing like Elvis, also German polkas. RIP

Ontario rips up Starlink deal, plans to add energy surcharge in response to tariffs TORONTO - Ontario will ban American companies from $30 billion worth of procurement contracts, rip up a $100-million Starlink deal and eradicate U.S. booze in its first wave of retaliations

Good

whoa whoa whoa….
and I can still see blue velvet through my tears

A break from political outrage to say “Chikhai Bardo”: beautiful filmmaking, performance by Dichen Lachman, just enough plot WTFs but not too much to overwhelm the human connection. Strongest #Severance outing for me so far. Exquisite and haunting final shots behind my eyelids in sleep tonight.

One of my favorite scenes in the entire show, and it was even more emotional on a rewatch—amazing acting and writing.

Doug Ford needs to cancel Ontario’s contract with Starlink now. Absolutely solidarity with Ukraine but also to avoid it being used as a bargaining chip by Musk and Trump against Canada. Right now, Premier Ford.

A message from Teresa. ❤️

If you are a media member who would like to cover this story, there are three surrogates who were at the town hall who are available to speak with you.

PLEASE: Watch what happened in Coeur d'Alene Idaho today. This is fascism. Unmarked cops. 1A violations. RESIST.

Some asshole on Twitter writing, "every woman’s biggest nightmare is late marriage", I realize dunking on stupid posts from Twitter is low-hanging fruit and I'm sorry

I got married at 38 but didn't a plane land upside-down yesterday

Here’s the general conclusion to that scene. “What I’m saying is there is a culture of lawlessness that is preventing me from doing my job…” - they end up tossing her in jail. I agree with someone who said Special Agent Dale Cooper was the perfect example. But Mulder & Scully fit there, too.

“BrBa guy” used to write great stuff for this admirable protagonist. He may not have written these specific words coming out of Dana Scully’s mouth but they kinda feel like they hold up after 29 years…

Doug Ford crowing about spending $1.3B on colleges and universities and $1.8B on healthcare.

Oddly, he opts to not mention the $2.3B he’s spending on a private spa in Toronto.

Ketamine (8). Probably less than 90 seconds and probably influenced by current news.

There’s been so much interest in from US 🇺🇸health workers and jobs in Canada that I’m posting recruitment links for all 10 provinces and 3 territories: 🧵 #healthcarejobs🇨🇦

“The thing that I can’t get over is that the actual richest man in the world directed my fucking firing. I make $50k a year and work to keep drinking water safe. The richest man in the world decided that was an expense too great for the American taxpayer.”
