Posting these photos side-by-side as part of my episode about el chupacabras for It Could Happen Here so people know that HR Giger is the reason we have the bloodsucker. Left is Sil from the film Species and right is drawing by Benjamin Radford of the first sighting www.iheart.com/podcast/105-...

Out tomorrow morning! Jon and I walk through the whole AI bubble - GPUs in warehouses, Anthropic’s dodgy S-1 and IPO and more.

brazil is the only country whose president gives a black and trans congresswoman a kiss on the cheek, just think about it a bit get into politics, we need everyone

I’m not a political journalist, so was gladly surprised at the community I found here last night. To Americans anxious about the upcoming elections, a key thing we learned in Brazil that might help you: DO NOT engage with the far-right online. Don’t share rage bait. Amplify your people. Ignore them.

In his acceptance speech, Lula says he will work to regulate digital platforms in Brazil. “Digital crimes must be dealt with like real-life crimes.” This comes after Meta directly interfered with the Brazilian elections, favouring Flávio Bolsonaro.

oh hell yeah, they’re bringing the classics back

🤣😭😭😭

Thank you to the driver of this Ford Explorer for making my day.

Gonna be awkward when the cops corner her and discover she’s a maenad as she starts literally tearing the lot of them limb from limb

my pumkin he is everything

Dragon Age means so much to me after so many wonderful friends and memories. I’ve made 7 complete cosplays (3 winter palace uniforms, Bethany, Cole, Briala, and Isabela) and helped pattern two more (winter palace uniform and the standard Dorian). One day I’ll finally make a Grey Warden…

Five generations of Lipan Apache women. I’m the only one who wasn’t born in Texas.

I know it's a meme but, I'll admit, this one got me. 😔

'Hegseth breaks Eisenhower's globe' is a little too on-the-nose tbh

Alternately, you could take your Google home speakers out back and shoot them.

Most voters in California should have received their mail-in ballots already, and if you’re looking at your ballot with horror at all the people, propositions, and measures you’re being asked to have an opinion on, this voter guide is for you. Read more: lataco.com/2026-los-ang... By Sam Ribakoff

Paused @somemorenews.bsky.social to read an unhinged fb post, and came back at the best time to Katy shouting “What’s wrong with you?” Yeah fb dude, what IS wrong with you????

again: if you watch the new harry potter, I will think less of you. Not telling you that you can't, just telling you that I will think less of you.

M. Night Shyamalan's YouTube channel (which is something he has now) came out of nowhere with this great line.

It’s no accident this iteration of fascism has most explicitly targeted trans people, immigrants, Muslims, pro-Palestine protesters… all marginalized groups MAGA can trust certain Dems/centrists to withhold solidarity from / throw under the bus

Graciousness in giving up the title

This whole thread is instructive (about writing tie-in novels), but the bit at the end starting here is a particularly interesting story.

Back in MY day we got mad and wrote a 100,000 word fix it fic. Fandom these days is SOFT I TELL YOU they would never survive the things I have seen

Parker's having a good hair day, like if you agree. 👨‍🎤

Exactly as predicted: Elder abuse. This is from Danny Trejo’s son, Gilbert Trejo. Not only did Ben Shapiro’s camp trick the elder Trejo about what the movie really was, he apparently signed a contract barring him from even putting out a statement about it.

wild to be living in a world with live-streamed state executions and legal daylight kidnappings, but every time you turn around some loser is saying, hey man, what if art were completely frictionless? what if we killed even the possibility of human connection??

we built a machine that can automate internet crimes. who should be held accountable? nobody of course

oh wow people are pissed huh

if you don’t keep up with the youth i want you to know they’ve renamed “tramp stamps” to “cake toppers” which feels like the first advancement for feminism in a long time

Happy day 8 of Halloween!!!

Dark times ahead, folks.

The American white collar workforce started working from home three days a week for like six months a year into COVID and executives so thoroughly lost their minds over this that they installed Trump II. If anything, AI will create the 7-day workweek.
