Hey, just an aside - please don’t feel like you have to follow me because I followed you - you don’t, this isn’t a trade. That’s it. I could probably discuss more about why I “follow” people1️⃣, but that’s just really subtext.

Not bc someone told me, but bc I spent my life figuring it out

I really hate to admit it but with inflation etc., I need to ask for help to provide for her. Living on Social Security I have no options other than to ask for your help. 100% of subscriptions support Tenētkē: >>---> yehuda1491.com/posts/help-s... #CatsOfBluesky #Cats #MutualAid #Native #Indigenous

Pix of the Oval going back to Ike. Surprised that I like Poppy Bush's taste best. (Also the Cheesecake Factory photo being used here is before even more gold crap was added.) www.reddit.com/r/Damnthatsi...

The way AI startups are just sucking your data and trying to sell it back to you reminds me of what startups were doing back in the blog era of the early 2010s. It stinks. tedium.co/2026/10/27/a... new @tedium.co

You're laughing. I'm trying to get people to to click on "hey guys it's not hard to figure out why farmers love Trump, he's opening up whole new types of farm slavery" as much as they click on "here's some more gossip about Ballerina Farm" & you're laughing

I rounded up 13 bone-chilling Indigenous horror reads that’ll crawl under your skin and into your dreams. Stephen Graham Jones is back with Off the Reservation, Never Whistle at Night returns for blood, and writers from Alaska to Aotearoa are bringing the scares. redpopnews.com/13-bone-chil...

they did those things & also made the new Battlestar Galactica! Partly to say, "WE DID TELL YOU, here are some Oscar nominees so you LISTEN this time" [not technically shilling for my book because it doesn't come out til 2028, but this right here 👇 was a notable part of the underpinnings of BSG]

32% of eligible US voters chose Trump in 2024, yet it was presented in the American media as an amazing landslide. Lula's reelection was significantly bigger, but it will be presented as eking out a win.

a lot of fandomites will protest when you say it, but fandom has been like that from the start, much more obsessed with an attachment to the idea of intellectual property than to cultural and creative expression beyond or independently of capitalism.

In apartment hunting news, I have someone who's offering to match my moving fund, up to 2k!!! I have a month to get out of here so it's really full steam ahead now, & I still gotta pay my full rent 🙏🏾🍀🤞🏾 Weekly goal: $600 by 11/1 cash.app/$sotreu2 venmo.com paypal.me/rikiam #MutualAid #HelpSky

i say His for the obvious reason that you never hear an older woman say this stuff. ‘i love my little boy toy he isn’t all ran through and full of expectations like the men my age’ like you can’t even hear that IN YOUR IMAGINATION

obviously i have no problem with an age gap except when the older one in the relationship openly admits his relief that the younger one is too inexperienced to realize she’s too good for him

I'm not criticizing those who are showcasing the accomplishments of scientists, artists, and writers to debunk RFK Jr.'s comments but I think it's also important to treat them not as ignorance, but as the outright malice they are. He made those comments to claim a US citizen is unfit for the Senate.

Bluesky has four kinds of users

I appreciate that people want a new Mass Effect, but the future where fans advocate for the work itself and not the people who make it is the one the vultures at EA want. If you'll take it however you get it, they can keep treating people who make what you love as expendable.

If you were wondering HOW historically inaccurate Elon Musks "historically accurate" grok generated video version of the odyssey could possibly be? This thread is for you. Nome gives up (rightly) on the countless AI glitches (they're not hallucination) & just goes to town on the anachronisms 🫡

Literally the first shot of this "historically accurate" Odyssey movie shows a boat that A) Has no steering oar. B) Is under full sail *and* full rowers while entering a cave, presumably to dock inside.

These are not Bronze Age Greek Ships. The curving thing, that they want to put at the front and back of the ship? That should only be at the back. What these are, instead, are bronze age Nordic longboats.

i've been talking a lot lately about fairy tales and darkness and childhood and the dangers of sanitized storytelling and it sort of feels like this movie was made to test my commitment to the bit 😂

man, go see it. ideally with an 11yo who can announce "that was NOT the prologue of the book" about four minutes in

It genuinely does suck and is *bad* that it feels like there’s almost nowhere to go for people who 1. Want to work on robotics (like drones) and 2. Don’t want to build weapons.

This article does not discuss one major reason why chocolate in the West got worse - Ghana and Ivory Coast, the two African countries that are the biggest suppliers of cacao globally, got organised and started demanding fair prices for it. www.reuters.com/world/africa...

Me: I don't see any reason to use AI Slop peddlers: You know how you want to sell books but you hate writing? Me: No, I love writing. The only reason I care about selling books is so I can afford to write instead of getting a real job Slop peddlers: Oh. Well... You know how you hate your kids?

What’s remarkable here isn’t just the sentiment, which is obviously weird and depressing, but that a media trained executive who has been doing interviews for decades thought this was an anecdote that would land well.

"Gett Off" by Prince and the New Power Generation Sung in the style of "What it's Like" by Everlast My brain does this to me all the time, so you all have to suffer too.

I of course loved him as Chekov, but playing Bester on BABYLON 5 really showed his range. You really forgot the guy ever *was* Chekov in that role. RIP Walter Koenig.

maybe this is just the SharePoint team and we're on our way to a much brighter and more beautiful SharePointless future

I'm going to try to do this cleanly. Today's right wing governments are networked to each other. Those networks are well-documented. You can read about them in books. Following the elections in one node of that network is good practice for understanding the U.S. node.

Be the candy corn you want to see in the world

Just installed my 26-year-old copy of Word on a new desktop. I will never pay subscription fees for software I already paid for. I will go live in a shack in the woods first.

Today at kindergarten drop-off my kid very matter-of-factly told me, “No matter how many goodbye hugs we do, it doesn’t feel like enough,” and then she walked in the gate. So if you need me for anything today I will simply be in shambles.

Kind of a lot of words just to say "My husband is bad in bed..." 1819news.com/news/item/la...

One mark of a great actor IMO is being super well known as a friendly beloved character and then being able to turn around and play one of the best Villains on television. RIP Walter Koenig
