One time a woman was writing a check to someone, using the edge of the stage to prop up her check book. Bob Dylan noticed and asked, “Are you writing a check to me?” Then later asked her, “How much did you make it for?”

Happy Type High Day to all of the printers out there. Physical type is .918 inches tall so this is their version of Pi day 🤣 #letterpress

Eye popping. Court just unsealed Summary Judgment motions in New York Times v OpenAI / Microsoft. Easy to see why the AI companies had so many redactions (pink). Their own people wrote the lede for NYT, the "largest theft of labor in human history"... "more and more substitutive..." /1

To the EU and Canada, take that bet. Don’t stop.

England red card.. So does the king call fifa now? Is that how this works?

It's going to be way more fun in my 'hood if Mexico win TBH.

I think the Mexico fans down the block are seeing the game about a minute ahead of us. Can always tell when Mexico scores a minute before we see it on TV.

The reason these Temu KKK losers only march for 15 minutes at a time (long enough to get their propaganda footage and generate images that a horrified public will endlessly amplify for them) is that they know that if they hung around longer, they'd quickly be outnumbered by their opposition.

If I were playing on the World Cup, I would simply make sure that I didn’t miss the goal. I would kick the ball into the goal.

You’ve mixxed your last lot, sir.

When Trump went to war with Iran, I watched every speech anyone in the administration gave and made a chart of every reason given for going to war "Eliminate ballistic capability" was the #1 reason given: more even than preventing Iran from getting a nuclear weapon

The “Broadview Six” are asking a judge to take the extraordinary step of appointing a special counsel to investigate — and possibly prosecute — Justice Department officials in Chicago and Washington D.C. for criminal contempt. NEW from @chicago.suntimes.com: chicago.suntimes.com/immigration/...

I know it looks like I’m moving But I’m standing still

I figured out that getting a new phone case makes it feel like you have a new phone. So that’s why they don’t sell new phone cases for old phones. Why buy a new phone when you can just buy a new phone case?

CDOT lost the best of our team yesterday. We're heartbroken. In memory of Riley O'Neil, please refer to these bike racks as "Riley Racks". He led Chicago's bike parking program for several years. Our hearts are broken, but we want to make sure his legacy lives on 💙🚲 Please spread the word

Don’t go in there. They’re tearing it down.

They put one of yours in the hospital, you put out a statement about how disappointed you are. That’s the centrist way.

You may have heard about baby bald eagles being born in Chicago for the first known time in a century. Here are my views of the nest in Park 597, as seen from Indian Ridge Marsh (roughly 700 feet away), shot with an 800 mm lens. Chicago Park District urges people to keep 600 feet away from the nest.

RE: https://floss.social/@gnome/116448955348537230 This is the kind of stuff that actually matters when it comes to queer rights!

Sorry to be overly sincere for a second, but here's why we decided to persevere through all of the bullshit and take over InfoWars. There's just gotta be a line somewhere. Thank you @pablo.show for letting me talk so openly about this.
