My usual answer to this is dental floss. You have no idea how unpleasant it used to be. But, well, looks like you’ll be finding out again!
Social media loves talking about how everything is getting worse. But what’s something that you’ve seen get _better_ in your lifetime?

With Tom Skerritt's passing, the cast of Alien have so far died in the same order as the director's cut (where they find Dallas still alive waiting to become a cocoon): 1) John Hurt 2) Harry Dean Stanton 3) Ian Holm 4) Yaphet Kotto 5) Tom Skerritt It's macabre, sure, but it's also fascinating.

Saw it on the big screen tonight for the first time in 35 years. Still holds up.
I watched An American Werewolf in London many times as a kid but just rewatched for the first time as an adult. 1) It holds up great and 2) It's remarkable how I, as a Jewish teenager, completely missed what this movie is about
On top of everything else, so funny to be saying you can't report on polls that lack scientific basis at a time when TV is going all in on prediction markets
In any other admin, this would probably be the most outrageous official statement ever made by a sitting FCC director: Strongly implying that the government forbids broadcast networks from reporting on the president's falling poll numbers. (Sorry to paste from twitter but that's where he posts.)
Books I've read and enjoyed after seeing people talk about them on Bluesky: Murderbot The 3rd Policeman Little, Big The Sea, The Sea Across the Universe Gideon the Ninth Understanding Octavia E. Butler Gormenghast Rabbi Burns
Was it @joshuajfriedman.com who declared "BlueSky is the app for books?" Maybe @lollardfish.bsky.social Anyway, this post went around yesterday & I had the most new subscriptions...I think ever on a single day. October issue should go out tomorrow afternoon!
Interesting! Disney added the jumping off the cliff part but the idea that lemmings will migrate into the sea until they drown dates at least to this highly speculative article (that includes the phrase, "We shall have a severe winter and no grass next spring, owing to those children of Satan!")
The Disney documentarians were hoping to film the behavior, and when they didn't find it they gave the creatures a push over the cliff. But the legend of lemming suicide is older. It first took root with this Popular Science article from 1877. en.wikisource.org/wiki/Popular...
