Damn, Lee Unkrich, this would have been a really good time for you just to shut the fuck up and not say anything at all. I wonder how the great many queer folks working at Pixar feel about your "therapy" line?

So does today's announcement mean she can't use her taxpayer-funded Flying Hanky-Panky Palace anymore?

Is the president mocking the U.S. women’s hockey team on a celebratory call with the men’s team going to attract even an iota of the sustained handwringing that the idea of trans athletes disadvantaging women’s sports has gotten

Over on threads someone just use ai;dr and we all need to adopt that right quick

The Patriots shall not be vanquished till Birnam wood remove to Dunsinane!

There are a lot of people who are going to complain about being unfairly vilified by that halftime show and it's because they know in their hearts they're on Team Hate.

My wife and I were joking about the Billionaires March earlier. I told her "You know there's only gonna be like seven people there" -- I didn't realize how prophetic I would be!

How the hell are you supposed to have a career in tech in 2026? - Anil Dash A blog about making culture. Since 1999.

Maybe he should check in with his imaginary friends. I'd bet they're probably pretty pissed off about us willy-nilly illegally effecting regime change.

Look, I'm sure that Nolan's adaptation of "The Odyssey" will be fun, but I highly doubt it will be as good as the original.

Going straight to the top of my to-read list! I’m very much looking forward to reading this, @emilystjams.bsky.social !

Oh my good lord.

Ooooh, I did not realize it was a night early for the holidays! Thanks for the tip! *rushes off to Plurib* (that's a verb now)

Same! I thought I hated vegetables for the longest time, and it's just that I hated boiled or steamed vegetables, which as you say was the *only* way they were ever presented to me. I still have nightmares about boiled okra.

i get very irrationally angry when i think about the fact that pluribus season 1 only has 9 episodes. where are the rest. guys? guys where are the rest of them. there should be like 20 of these right. did you lose them.

Block and move on, Tim. Block and move on. Your time is worth more than this. :)

I had a great conversation with my therapist today where she told me to embrace my HOT LESBIAN ENERGY, and so now I'm gonna do just that. I have to now! My therapist told me to!

Um, excuse me, I don't believe I had this on my holiday wish list. I'd like to go ahead and cancel this order, please.
