The "Meritocracy" at work.

Scott Horton @robertscotthorton.bsky.social · 2d

Trump said he deserved a cut for brokering the TikTok deal, and at once there was agreement that his son Baron would have a top executive slot... though he hasn't asked for it, and has no apparent qualifications to hold it. This is how Trump 2.0 works. www.telegraph.co.uk/us/news/2025...

I love the movie Gremlins and think it would have been an amazing YA horror franchise. Instead, for Gremlins 2, they leaned into the jokey tone of the bar scene and not the amazing horror elements of the attacks across Kingston Falls. I hope they reboot it as more horror again someday.

OMG. I had no idea what this was from at first, and my initial thought was "Is that the 2026 Olympic uniform???" and about had a heart attack.

UNTIL IT’S DONE, Ep. 4: Sylvia Rivera

In the 1970s, queer New Yorkers had been pushed to the margins of NYC. Our trans neighbors faced immense cruelty. But in Sylvia Rivera, they found a champion.

As we combat Trump’s politics of darkness, her legacy can light the path forward.

Damn, 15 innings! That must have been a thriller! #mariners

a clip from the ESPN home page where it shows the final score of the Tigers-Mariners game, 2-3, in 15 innings. An image of Jorge Polanco is shown after hitting his walk-off single that drove in the winning run. A caption underneath the image reads, "Mariners outlast Tigers in epic 15-inning battle to reach ALCS on walk-off."

I know some do. My ex told me she missed my masc qualities before our divorce. My sister questioned me by saying, "You used to love your penis when you were a kid." I responded, "I do still love penises, just on other people." Anyway, I just tell them I'm still me, just more honest and happy now.

That's an orangutan wearing chimp face.

Link is a 1986 British horror film starring Elisabeth Shue and Terence Stamp along with a trio of simian stars which consist of Locke as Link, Jed as Imp, and Carrie as Voodoo.
The title character, "Link", is a super-intelligent yet malicious chimpanzee (played by an orangutan) who lashes out against his masters when they try to have him euthanised. 14]

I don't get these guys. EVERYONE pays to use copyrighted material. Consumers have to purchase it. Commercial enterprises need to license it. Even channel like YouTube where the music is posted by the copyright owners still have to pay a revenue share. This is not a foreign concept.

Came here to say this. Who eats pudding with a utensil? It's a simple three step process:

1) Hold the container over your mouth and squeeze.

2) Use your tongue to clean out any remaining pudding.

3) If your tongue is not long enough, use your finger to get the remainder off the bottom.

RIP! I still remember modding my first TiVo to include a larger hard drive and adding LAN connectivity. Fortunately subsequent models made that unnecessary. I loved my TiVo. I think I spent more time with it than my wife. Pouring one out for the KiNg tonight.

I mean, she kind of admits it on number 9 of her list, right?

Jennifear Boooledo 🎃👻💀🪦 @dragongirlz.bsky.social · 6d

He said something about her having a "bottomless need" which makes me think he wasn't the one wearing the strap-on.

I will say though that'd probably make a pretty great Country song about a cishet guy whose wife wants to top him all the time.

I wasn't in the best of health before, but Long COVUD made my life worse. The first time I caught COVID-19, it ruined my balance and introduced vertigo. I've slowly improved, but now that I am experiencing menopause-like symptoms from hormones, it feels like the damage is exacerbating them.

Julia Doubleday @juliadoubleday.bsky.social · 7d

Nobody has Long COVID, but everybody has brain fog, cognitive decline and memory loss. I talk about the overwhelming scientific evidence that COVID damages the brain, and the overwhelming social unwillingness to acknowledge it in my latest:

This is absolutely true. At 31, I got married. At 40, I had my first child. At 48, I came out and started transitioning. At 54, so much is still fresh and new to me.

In the trans community, we like to encourage uncracked eggs by saying, "It's never too late." This is true for the rest of y'all too.

John Scalzi @scalzi.com · 8d

When I turned 30 I had not yet written my first published book or my first published novel and did not know (or know of) some of the most important people in my life. I didn't know how much my life could still change, and did, after the age of 30. There is so much your life still yet to live.
