ABC News video that resembles a coyote pressing against a force field. Headline reads: "SURREAL MOMENT AS COYOTE DRINKS WATER FROM SKYLIGHT WINDOW ON TO OF LOS ANGELES HAIR SALON"

SHIELDS AT 50% AND FALLING!

Paid for a guitar but came home empty-handed. Sounds like something that would happen to me...

Was at Publix yesterday and two high school aged cashiers were talking:
“I used ai for that history paper and I got an F, it made up a bunch of stuff that didn’t happen.”
“That’s crazy, I use ai for all my papers and it’s never done me wrong and teachers never notice.”

We are so fuckin doomed.

Blueskyism is telling people who aren’t usually told that they are wrong that they are wrong.

With everything going on with YouTube lately, I think you should know about another problem that's particularly bad in the anime space, and getting worse everywhere.

New Fire Emblem, baby! Did most of my gushing on Twitter, unfortunately.

I have become an info table.

“Political views” one of the great weasel phrases of our age.

It’s ok to stop relationships with people for being a Nazi, or a Republican, or a member of Stormfront or the KKK or any other hate group. It’s a very normal reaction.

Being a Republican means demolishing the planet and still expecting to get invited to dinner. They don’t believe in cutting people off socially over politics—they believe in *murdering* people over politics. Keeping normal relationships with whoever’s left is how they tell themselves they’re ok.

A Trump voter imprisons your neighbor it’s law and order. Kicks their gay kid out its religious conviction. Shoots you dead it’s self defense. Kidnaps you, it’s border security. Invades your town, it’s fighting crime.

Tell them you don’t like them anymore, it was all just “political views.”

I've probably described this before, but no matter how well things are going, I can't help but feel like I'm walking a tightrope.

I've found a few names that are pretty close to mine, like the Fire Emblem character Etzel or the Toyota model Tercel. But a new one is Ezel in the Bible (1 Samuel 20:19), which means "departure" or "separation." I like that.

Trying to get back into anitube / anime video essays, but I'm slowly realizing that things have changed, whether in the anitube space or in me.

Honestly, same.

I’ve been saying this forever. At my old job, my buddy and I interviewed some of the firms/agencies that hired our graduates about the skills they wanted. We did it hoping to use the responses argue for some new stats classes. But they literally were desperate for anyone that could write and talk.

ICE agents in tactical gear chase down and tackle a U.S. citizen in L.A.

After realizing he’s American, they just slink away.

Their only explanation: “Why were you running?”

Probably because two masked men with guns were trying to snatch him.

Shoutout to the me-al art Discord for preserving this incredible band's discography. I'm so glad I was finally able to find it all.

Lyn vs Lundgren! This is the last batch of Lyn drawings from these requests! Thank you!

Ben Shapiro getting all upset at the parade coverage as though he isn't used to taking part in activities where no one comes

Scenes from earlier as police attack protesters during No Kings in downtown L.A. @chopemdownfilms.bsky.social

the story today is of a profoundly low energy military parade being met with millions of americans in nationwide protests denouncing the dictatorial pretensions of the president

My hand feels good for guitar playing today. Hope it stays that way.
