Ahem.

You missed the obvious.

My late mother always said she wanted to ram that drumstick up his

RUMP-A-PUM-PUM

Well, in its defense, a badly played clarinet does feel like an aural assault.

I lost some really good friends.

But I realized they weren't who I thought they were when they quit a church because the pastor said Jesus didn't love rich people as much as the poor.

They’re the Heat on ICE Stopping federal agents on Canal Street was just the start: Inside a resistance movement.

“To put it frankly, old white people have a lot of time, and they’re really angry,” Stauss said. “Having somebody that looks like your grandmother out there, shouting ‘shame’ or out there blowing her whistle, is really important.”

Ford and GM both have terrific EV trucks at lower prices - and none of them looks like they were drawn on a cocktail napkin by a drug-addled trillion/billionaire.

Drive a Nazi-mobile, suffer the consequences of your choice - because it is a definite choice NOT to support American union workers.

HOLY BISCUITS

My sister used to live just down the road from the Falls and I have many family pictures taken from this viewpoint. Never seen it anywhere near this!

What I am hearing in this interview on #CNBC is that OpenAI is paying a licensing fee for the use of the characters and the images will be used in spots of no more than 30 seconds (no short films).

This might be the innovation that forces AI to stop pirating.

Hey if you were wondering whether Hegseth's soldiers are willing to obey illegal orders, let's ask the ones who were last seen scurrying down ropes onto the deck of a Venezuelan oil tanker like contemptible Somali pirates, jonesing to steal some oil as part of a unilateral and unprovoked act of war

Exciting news!

Shirley Jackson's son Laurence Jackson Hyman will be joining @kerryomalley.bsky.social, Annabeth Gish, and me this coming Monday evening, the 15th, for In the Night. In the Dark. A Shirley Jackson Evening.

I'm looking forward to chatting with him!

Thank you Minneapolis!

They are actually proud of this.

We are PIRATES

and not in a good way

a 30-pound black terrier mix with gray in his face and beard struts toward the camera with his front right paw mid-step. he's wearing a light tan suit with a white collared shirt and a brown polka dot neck tie that matches his warm brown eyes. he is ready for his first day as CEO.

This is our new CEO, Javier. I have officially adopted him. He is estimated to be 8 years old and he's deaf, so there's no need to give any feedback on his job performance. He is just a perfect gentlemen and I am so grateful he made his way to me. 14/10 no bias at all

a small yellow lab puppy sits like a person in the black leather passenger seat of a car. the dog is buckled in, and she's staring straight ahead with a stoic expression, while her two back feet kick up in front of her. the human in the driver's seat looks on with a slight smile.

This is Kaia. She takes road safety very seriously. Encourages you to do the same. 13/10 please buckle pup (TW: lyss121 & leleleems)

I hope you are getting a ton of work, bc this was a fantastic response!

And here starts the fake war that MAGA will use to cancel elections

I work at the public library which means I see the books leaving and coming back in, and I can tell you this, my community is scared of what's happening and what is likely to happen, and they intend to go down fighting. They are learning skills and reading about politics like I've never seen. And the books parents are choosing for their kids: allyship, inclusive, multi-culturalism. It's beautiful. I'm making new cards for people by the literal dozen. This is why fascists hate libraries. It's where people go to gird their fucking loins. We love to see it.

I love this so much.

#ANTIFA meets at the Library to gird their fvcking loins.
