Man, nothing kills the lingering positive buzz of a concert like going back to work

Someone tell Hillary that this is her husband’s legacy too

Stephen Colbert Defies CBS, Says Network Banned Him From Interviewing James Talarico On ‘The Late Show’ The Late Night host explained FCC Chair Brendan Carr's new guidance on the "equal time" rule, which alters how some programs schedule interviews.

The party against cancel culture loves canceling everyone.

What do you mean Dracula taught you nothing about business?

1. Invest in real estate.
2. You can cut costs by shipping yourself places.
3. Staffing is as easy as enthralling any young barrister who wanders by.
4. Avoid direct sunlight.

Colbert posted the interview online. I do wonder if CBS and the FCC are aware of the Streisand effect? The interview has been up for 8 hours and has just over half a million views.

Rev. Jesse Jackson, a civil rights icon, dies at 84 “Our father was a servant leader — not only to our family, but to the oppressed, the voiceless, and the overlooked around the world,” the Jackson family said in a statement Tuesday.

Rev. Jesse Jackson dedicated his life to expanding who gets to belong in American democracy.

From civil rights to economic justice, he challenged power and widened the path for Black Americans. May we honor his legacy not just with words, but by continuing the work. www.nbcnews.com/news/obituar...

Thank you for accompanying me to yet another fabulous ritual!

Your Goth Auntie, wearing a pink & black stripy dress, a mask with a black lace veil, and a top hat. With a sparkly pink rhinestone-bedecked cane, because if I need a mobility aid, by god it will match my aesthetic.

Hello, I was one of your Eldergoths at tonight’s Ghost ritual! However, no matching photo of @reverendmal.bsky.social, as he doesn’t appear in photos.

Tonight is going to the Ghost concert with @reverendmal.bsky.social! Bring on the bombast!

Tonight is GHOST! I'll be attending the ritual with @cupcakegoth.bsky.social and we will soak up some long needed bombast!!!

Bad day. Fuck it. Let's faceroll some anime souls.

I know Ricky Martin was there because he's a Puerto Rican icon, but I really appreciated that Bad Bunny made a pointed choice to give a gay man a moment in the spotlight in his vision of America

Screenshot of posts from four different people talking about a ring commercial that I completely missed. (God bless the “popular with friends” feed) Brandon Friedman • @brandonfried... • 31m The nice commercial about helping kids find their lost pets was the scariest thing I've seen in my life Adam Gurri © @adamgurri.liberalcur... • 33m So uh Ring just up and said they've got a huge centralized private surveillance network they can leverage all at once huh Tressie McMillan Cottom • @tressi... • 34m I tell you what, Ring figured out exactly how to weaponize white people's empathy in service to a corporately controlled surveillance state. Tell them it will find your dog. Joshua Erlich •@joshuaerlich.bsky.... • 34m fuck this Ring commercial hiding fascism behind dogs

We’re onto you, Ring

I'm hardly the first person to note this, but it's enormously instructive that our President and his followers saw the message "THE ONLY THING MORE POWERFUL THAN HATE IS LOVE" and understood it, correctly, as an attack on them

Yay, Seahawks! Congratulations!

Normally, I couldn't care less who wins what Sportsball game. Given that this sticks a massive thumb in MAGA's eye, though? I am totally here for that.

Ok the game ends and the first commercial played has Kenny G music

So Kenny G bookends the super bowl. That was not on my 2026 bingo card

Congratulations to my many, many friends in Seattle!

Commiserations to my fewer but nevertheless wonderful friends in New England.

Fuck ICE

Did they literally stealth drop Kenny G into the national anthem at the Bowl game???

Rough day, lots of not great news at work, so unwinding with Code Vein 2, feel free to come on by and keep me company

So very excited for the concert!!! We're gonna have a delightful time at the ritual :)

I'm going to a Ghost concert in just over a week with the always snarkily delightful @reverendmal.bsky.social. Yaaaaay bombast and spectacle! Part of my concert prep involves rereading @gradyhendrix.bsky.social's We Sold Our Souls; there's something about the Blind King that reminds me of Ghost.

Twitch Twitch is the world

Going back into Code Vein 2 to see if we can open up the world a bit! Come hang out!

I think it’s worth keeping in mind that the specific church that was protested, inspiring these outrageous constitutional violations by DOJ, is part of the network of Christian Nationalist churches tied to Doug Wilson and attended by Pete Hegseth.

Don Lemon is not the only reporter who was arrested by federal agents overnight — local independent journalist Georgia Fort just went live on FB to say federal agents were also at her door to take her into custody over her protest coverage in Minneapolis.
