I'm amazed that I've only been to a handful of countries but I managed to get a pair of antipodes.

Not surprised. Everything else feels like its melting down.

Got back on Blue sky specifically to connect @kinto-m.bsky.social to this awesome map about where you would come out if you dug a hole through the world.

How in the ever loving heck is Astral Weeks from 1968?

A man labeled DOGE shoots a man in a chair labeled The National Weather Service. The shooter asks "why didn't we know how bad that storm was gonna be?"

As a life long amateur weather tracker and devotee of The Weather Channel I'm gutted by the unnecessary suffering and loss of life, and horrified to think it will continue until NWS and NOAA get their funding back. But like the rest of us, I can only process it with shitposting.

Ever get the feeling that Boomers spent their entire childhood being told the world could end at any moment with nuclear war. And it was traumatizing, but its how they all assumed they would die. But now they feel like they only have a few years to make it happen?

I love that a politician can say something like “I believe mice naturally spawn out of grain” and the news will now just treat that as a legitimate line of thought

JFC, I should have eaten that whole tub of ice cream and been done with it.

Reposted with alt because dudes rock.

So when I was reading The Master Margarita, I did not expect the fever dream absurdity to be an actual feature tyranny.

I just realized the reason why the Mon Mothma dance song sounds so familiar is it's the same chords as Runnin Up That Hill. Was that... on purpose?

Also waymo has been really useful in LA where people can call them out and then set them on fire to obstruct la migra

I had a giant spider plant that I had planted the day I met my husband. I had that thing for ages until a squirrel ate it and the root ball. I was heartbroken. His name was Gilbert O'Sullivan.

I cant believe some people are disappointed that Andor spent so much time on the Mothma wedding. I could have watched an entire season of that wedding. Maybe even a whole show. THE REAL CHILD BRIDES OF CHANDRILA.

The are line dancing in the middle of the protest while shouting Fuck ICE

“He asked you to shoot at people who weren’t shooting back,” growled Vimes, striding forward, “That makes him insane, wouldn’t you say?” “They are throwing stones, Sarge,” said Colon. “So? Stay out of range. They’ll get tired before we do.” ― Terry Pratchett, Night Watch

Huh, haven't checked Bluesky in a few weeks. Let's see what's up...

OH DEAR GOD!

Jesus Christ guys, if this forces Neil Young out of retirement to write another catchy song about the murder of protesters, SO HELP ME...

In the spirit of MAGA, Trump’s chef harkens back to a time when white people seized control of the world’s spices, but didn’t use them.

Horror has ruined me.

Our flight to Prague is delayed. Announcement: "we're awaiting the arrival of valuable cargo, as soon as that's aboard we will depart."

My brain: that's definitely definitely a vampire coffin.

It’s Mary Anning’s birthday, so time to share @katebeaton.bsky.social’s brilliant cartoon again.

I'm kind of surprised the government hasn't taken that one down yet, along with all the pages about women's health, LGBT issues, achievements of minorities. and the "Enola Gay" (for being too gay".

From the creators of "I don't like Rage against the Machine anymore, they've gone woke", we bring you a new, thrilling journey of self discovery:

Four tiny kittens frolic around a cardboard model of the White House flying a flag upside down. There is a crate with a litterbox nearby.

Despite chaos, infighting, and the giant Litterbox on the National Mall, public opinion remains at an all time high for President Litter Of Kittens. "This is Awesome." Claims American public. "We should do this every election." Bystanders could be heard chanting "9 more lives!"

In the department of "No Shit Sherlock." But it's good to have some non-anecdotal data on this.

As Vatican mourned Pope Francis, US cons Catholics, led by Napa Inst, tried to influence next election by hosting events in Rome, offering $1B in donations for electing favorable pope
Their efforts, incl past attempts like the 2018 “Red Hat Report” targeting progressive cardinals, may have backfired

DONT THREATEN ME WITH A GOOD TIME, LAURA.
