If you don’t end up with a crush on at least one, but probably two or more, contestants by the end of a series of Taskmaster, are you even watching

The Supreme Court ordered Donald Trump to bring Kilmar Abrego Garcia home in a 9-0 decision. He is defying the Supreme Court. Every American should be concerned and we cannot allow him to strip away due process like this.

Definitely voting for Shadow of a Doubt, a masterpiece that never veers from watchable.

Folk art style oil pinging of a shorthaired white cat with yellow eyes and a red collar with two gold bells on it. It is sitting up on a red cushion or ottoman and the background is black.

Our local history museum has this painting of "Tinkle" in their collection but I have NEVER seen it on display. Always in storage. They open for the season May 9th and we're very anxious to see if it's out this year. Unknown artist, 1883. shelburnemuseum.org/online-exhib...

And now I have no idea what *this* is about. I swear I'm not on anything. I just don't understand the syntax. Or maybe I'm being dada. (May I be mother?)

Are you that discontented DOGE staffer? It might be time. You can reach out to me on Signal at joshtpm.99 (I'm not like Mike Waltz; I know how to use it.) You can also get me at joshtpm at protonmail dot com. Are you a federal worker with information I need to hear? I want to hear from you too.

I don't love interacting with humans all of the time, but I want to know when a real human is a real human.

I am heart-broken that the US is increasingly unsafe to travel to. I'm still a US citizen, so I am writing to my senators/reps to make sure they know about Iris and others in the international arts community forced to make decisions like this, culturally impoverishing us all. Perhaps you will too?

ai art is like being a runner and youre excited for a marathon and youre training and then someone comes up and says 'why not use this new 'car tech' it can drive you to the finish line and youll have run the marathon without that pesky running'. then theyre confused when you say no and run instead

Right now, the ultra wealthy want to control what women can do, who people can love, what clothes people can wear, what race you can be and still hold a job, and to convince enough people that they're in danger unless they give a shit about everyone else's business.

Oh, you can make it noisy. Just invite every angry person you know, and some artists. Do you know about Starter Packs?

In these insane times, I encourage you to support independent presses and authors.

Reading is a respite. It will recharge you.

It will teach you patience, empathy, creativity.

It will delight you.

All of these are necessary to survive.

Plus you'll be helping artists survive, too.

Do you know why a president would do all the most evil and heinous shit via Executive Order? Because his party can't easily make it law. And if they can't make it law, they can't make it last.

Don't let anyone make you feel like this is The End. Do not let them demoralize you. Live to see them die.

The more I look at a tree the more extraordinary and impossible they seem to me.

too much bad, how about the small crochet orange tree with one orange and one blossom slightly debated and then purchased from a sweet person at the palm springs street market a little over a week ago because homes need small beloved things in them

Does anyone else remember getting indignant the first time U2 was on "classic rock" radio? It's past 1980! That's...not old.

Screenshot of a poem: THE RIDER
A boy told me if he roller-skated fast enough
his loneliness couldn't catch up to him,
the best reason I ever heard for trying to be a champion.
What I wonder tonight
pedaling hard down King William Street is if it translates to bicycles.
A victory! To leave your loneliness panting behind you on some street corner while you float free into a cloud of sudden azaleas, pink petals that have never felt loneliness, no matter how slowly they fell.
