172k layoffs recently announced, and those are just the ones we know about. Two years ago, tech laid off nearly 500k -- I was one of them.

Our country is barreling towards a cliff and the administration wants to sic the military on people.

This is untenable. We need help.

Mom was a huge fan; growing up, we listened to this on every car trip and sang along to every single song. To this day, I contend it's one of the best concert albums ever.

As before, thanks to @ronrandall.bsky.social for sharing albums and inspiration!

A guy I know recently posted "Nobody checks on a man to see if he's okay, they check to see if he's still useful."

First; 🤮
Second; if your relationships are so bad nobody checks on you to see if you're okay, THAT'S ON YOU, ASSHOLE.

He's telling on himself without realizing it.

I'm with you - writing an issue of GI-Joe is a big check off of my dream journal.

I honestly don't understand the appeal of shows like Critical Role.

I spent all of school watching people have a ton of fun doing something I love and tell me "You're not allowed to join us."

Why would I continue doing that to myself?

We now have conclusive proof that Tr#mp doesn't know what art is:

"The Times noted that Trump had no artwork in his Manhattan office, apart from (an) illustration of Trump Tower, hanging on one of the walls.

“If that isn’t art, then I don’t know what is,” Trump said at the time."

This is the shit an angry 11 year old posts, thinking "yeah, that'll show 'em."

It's also the official White House website.

We are a sad, pale, pathetic shadow of a nation. Not even a joke anymore, not worth laughing at, just disgusting and pitiable.

RIGHT?! As my wife likes to say, "all slaps, no skips." 😄

A turntable with a record playing. On top is the album jacket for Time Out by the Dave Brubeck Quartet.

Inspired by @ronrandall.bsky.social and his record posts, I finally got my own player set up and am currently rocking one of the greatest jazz albums of all time. #TimeOut #TakeFive

Opinion - Why men are leaving the left — and not coming back The Democratic Party is losing men due to its lack of authenticity, as its attempts to woo them with branding and beer ads have failed to resonate with them, and its leaders have failed to provide the...

Who wants to read a toxically masculine person defend toxic masculinity while being too ignorant to realize they're doing it? 🙄

I get real tired of seeing my alcoholic, abusive ex pop up in my FB feed because all of our mutual friends (who told me to break up with her) remained friends with her.

For myself (and, I imagine, nearly every single one of you), Drew Struzan created the image in our head of the best movies of all time -- his art is what we see when we think of that movie.

He was an absolute legend - we will never see talent like his again.

Holy fuck - I hope you get better soon! Sending lots of healing energy your way - and all my love and support!

A large steel pot with red tomato soup inside, sliced sausage, zucchini, black olives, green peppers, and onions are visible mixed into the soup.

Just made my second soup of the season! My own little idea (that I'm sure other people have already done), I call it Pizza Soup!

Best served with a layer of melted mozzarella on top (a la French onion soup).

He's really telling on himself and his lack of ability by saying how much he'd have to rely on AI to write anything...

I am Jack's complete lack of surprise.

Check it frequently - check it often.

I hate MTG (the person, not the game)...but I'm not going to turn her away when she does the right thing. If she wants to abandon the dark side, I will happily welcome her back into the light because YOU DON'T PUNISH BEHAVIOR YOU WANT TO SEE.

❤️ Sending lots of love and support and good energy. ❤️

Trump Reveals Bonkers Event That Will Take Place On His 80th Birthday A $45 million military parade was held on the same day for the president’s recent birthday in June.

We are a fucking joke of a country. A sad, pathetic shadow of ourselves, with the worst human beings in history embracing what used to be satire and making it reality.

Please, I'm begging the world to save us from ourselves.

Supreme Court will hear challenge to Hawaii's gun law backed by Trump administration After the Supreme Court made it harder to restrict who can arm themselves in public, some states restricted where in public guns are allowed.

Gun owners in the US are the most paranoid delusional, terrified, weak little people on the fucking planet.

If you are so scared of the world you live in, use the money you'd spend on guns to get fucking therapy - at least that way nobody else has to die.

Hegseth rails against 'woke,' lays out standards in speech to top generals The president echoed Hegseth's sentiments in a long-winded speech.

This is some terrifyingly "master race" bullshit... We are throttling down on the ramp to full fascism and it is going to go sideway really fucking fast.

When he's finally dead and gone, we can charge people $20 to spend ten minutes with a sledgehammer, demolishing the new White House ballroom and/or patio.

I bet we'd make enough to pay off the national debt.

As a writer, I love seeing these so I can get better at envisioning the pages, and describing panels and layouts to my artist.

Thanks for always sharing!

Can we play some kind of apology to the UN while he speaks? Just to let them know he doesn't speak for us?

Someone on FB tried to insult me today by saying "I remember arguing with you six years ago and now you're back again?"

I just replied "Funny - I don't remember you at all."

Price-per-ounce, this is one of the most expensive drinks in the US.

And worth every damn penny.

At what point do we finally admit that our "experiment in democracy" has utterly failed and start over with something new?

Jimmy Kimmel Asked to Apologize and Pay Charlie Kirk's Family if He Wants Suspension Lifted by Nation's Largest ABC Affiliate The media company Sinclair wants Kimmel to apologize to Kirk's family and make a "meaningful personal donation" to them and Kirk's nonprofit Turning Point USA

I'm begging #JimmyKimmel to not give in to these terroristic demands.

Do not apologize, do not give them money, do not capitulate, do not cave. Do not give them another inch.

"We're kickstarting a new alarm clock! It's clean, elegant, and is JUST A CLOCK, nothing else."

"Great! How much will it cost?"

"$250."
