I'm a keynote presenter at Creative Works West 2026; come see me try to say something inspiring to creative pros and not just scream a manifesto about how we should burn down the internet & live in artist communes & make zines… Details & also other stuff in my newsletter: mailchi.mp/rob-sheridan...

Brain scans will be required for exit from all american professional sports leagues to make sure you do not retain an account of the game without the expressed written consent of the league.

Fortson WA Fishing ponds with decaying pilings and the decorated structures of an old mill. Quiet, except for croaking ravens, a few fisherman bouncy over the rutted road and constant white noise gurgle of water.

The Lord of The Rings movies were rated PG-13. By current rules that means that each film could contain one use of the word "Fuck". Which line are you altering to insert the most useful swear word? "I can't carry it for you, but I can Fucking carry you"

The most incredible thing about Tron: Ares is how insanely fast Disney killed the Jared Leto being a disgusting and well-known predator of underage women story. Truly futuristic next level PR crisis management.

Here's what happens when you drag an icon from the Finder info window into @figma.com (why did i try this, i dont know) 🫠 Hitting enter dismisses it and jumps your window to the bottom of the screen(!?!?)

My kids review of Liquid Glass: K: β€œeh, boring” M: β€œThis is going to make it hard to read things, they need to change it so you can see things better” My kids *are* the internet.

i bought my first piece of band merch this year, a Chat Pile dad hat, and I have already made 3 friends by wearing it today was a ~23yo arborist the kids are alright

I'm a little concerned that the impending May 7th requirement to have a Real ID/Passport to travel domestically is going to be another vector for detainment/deportation.

eBay's β€œinnovation” for sellers is β€œhelpfully” (randomly) applying different "features" and then hiding them under expanders with no obvious indication that something new/strange/annoying is turned on SURPRISE!

The newest one is β€œAuthenticity Guarantee" which means you ship to an β€˜authenticator’ before sending it on to the actual buyer, meaning, someone else has the opportunity to screw it up/interfere or simply delay delivery. I would like a setting for "never turn things on without my explicit action"

No genocide No more American militarism No fascism No Trump No Elon Yes to restoring the working class Yes to universal single payer healthcare No any politician R or D who does not side with the working class over billionaires.

As soon as Apple TV+ was rumored I thought β€œNo. You do not want this Apple. This is not a good fit for you. You will hate this. Don’t do it.” (I still love Severance)

The most insane roster of characters I've ever seen. "Each of you is going to have to live with this, and I'm sorry for that, for you are all good, good people. My colleagues, my friends, I forgive you."

NEW! Nacelle launches preorders today for their new #StarTrek action figures, and we've got all the info on the first releases β€” and their surprising, detailed accessories! blog.trekcore.com/2025/03/nace...

Good things last week: Monster Hunter Wilds Every mechanic is better, the graphics are insane. Multiplayer UI is ballz Chat Pile at Neumo's One of the best shows I've seen in a long time. At the top of their game of telling very upsetting stories using incredible heavy / beautiful riffs.

I feel that the quality of candie hearts both in terms of message print quality and texture has gone down significantly. I distinctly remember having some candie hearts that were kinda soft? And they were so much better. Not this time. Literally just tooth breakingly hard

I've watched Slow Horses and almost done with Silo S1 and I am wondering what shows the people recommending these were watching. Both shows feel absolutely toothless. Standard tv tropes with massive budgets. πŸ₯±

The insanity of FedEx tracking: Was scheduled to arrive on Thursday before 8pm, but the package was in California. The tracking system did not seem to understand that delivery on that day was impossible. Now it is out for delivery, but tracking says it's scheduled to arrive on Monday.

You are up to date.
