Some great new reaction images to use when people are obtuse on BlueSky.
to take an actual crack at this: requiring effort to access entertainment (set schedules, physical media, rare reruns, limited home access), often meant you proved yourself a fan by dint of the consumption itself, and I think that’s been replaced by toxic fandom to prove your bona fides.

“It is profitless to speculate on error.” Once again I must stress that my grandmother talked like this all the fucking time, she could have been describing a salad that wasn’t as good as she was hoping it would be
there’s, like, a lot of yall who think I’m talking about one specific guy here and it’s like no. this is a general problem. the guy you’re thinking of, that is just one guy among many guys

O’Neal helped purge me & all the other Black full-time staff columnists at the Post Opinion Section. I challenged his move to fire me in the aftermath of the Charlie Kirk killing. And he testified against me in June. We are expecting an arbitration ruling soon. Convenient time for him to quit.

I need all my content creator and video editor friends to know that your skills are marketing gold dust right now for game studios and if you want an industry job - esp. in high-quality short-form video - you need to get your ass on 👴🏻 LinkedIn and 🍄 @workwithindies.com and start looking posthaste.

Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com · last wk.Hannity: "My President, Lindsey probably has a heavenly version of Mar-a-Lago. It may even be a little bigger. I wouldn't be surprised if he added one big beautiful ballroom and an arch somewhere on the property. Because he would want to obviously duplicate his dearest friend in life. You."
i have muted the threads that were on the feed and which you were probably expounding for depression forgive me they were tedious so tedious and so tedious
That I (an attorney for XBOX Game Studios) did not exercise the power I apparently had to personally lower the retail cost of the PS5 to make it more accessible to people.

i totally agree with this take and i think for me it’s connected to how much i hate having to figure out what the fuck to eat and what time to go to sleep in real life. like what if the options and their effects were clearly defined and you could track them on meters and that was just it

Just a reminder that no review of any Homer adaptation will ever top Roger Ebert killing Troy in two sentences
Low social trust people think that if you spill a cup of lukewarm coffee on yourself you can sue McDonald’s for a million dollars but also the airplane crash position was engineered to kill you so you can’t sue the airline. Moreover, they think they’re the smart ones for believing this.
Anyone near Seattle Center please hunker down and be safe
Holly Green@winnersusedrugs.bsky.social · last wk.Jesus Christ there was just a shooting a block from here at Seattle Center during the Bite of Seattle festival, reports are saying at least six victims, medics are performing CPR. Good god and fuck damnit
People don't realize that Saturn is not the only flat planet in the solar system. Jupiter is also mostly composed of the remnants of Jupiter Zero, which collapsed on itself in 1904. Trust me on this, I've been an astrophysicist for a length of time.
