Which came first, the odyssey or the Odysseus

inviting old friends to your wedding when you're over 40 years old fucking rules. remember ol brickface and "threw a basketball through a window" danny? yeah, they're getting invites. every last hooligan that made you feel young is gonna get invited to the best day of your life. treasure THAT.

If it isn’t delivering nicotine or THC or sports competition I do not want the smoke

every once in a while i'm reminded that bill murray voiced garfield in the movies and played peter venkman in ghostbusters, and lorenzo music voiced both garfield in the tv show and peter venkman in the ghostbusters cartoon. it's a strange coincidence that i feel should be more interesting.

well first of all that pod DIDN'T save america so jot that down

getting to hear eric collins call naz plays is my personal silver lining

Happy St. Patrick's Day, New York.

most professional athletes are just dumb jocks who don't pay attention to much else beyond the sport they play and their entourages but the video of donald trump congratulating the usa men's hockey team is pretty devastating. /1

Is the president mocking the U.S. women’s hockey team on a celebratory call with the men’s team going to attract even an iota of the sustained handwringing that the idea of trans athletes disadvantaging women’s sports has gotten

Tonight on @allinwithchris.bsky.social

during lyin' homan's propaganda conference announcement extravaganza one of my neighbors was snatched out of their car at the traffic light. lesson here is that the lying liars will continue to lie. trust only your neighbors. keep them safe as they keep you safe.

voting for this guy rules i'm gonna do it as often as i can

I’ll believe it when I see it. Everything they’ve said about this illegal occupation has been built on a lies. We need accountability for our neighbors and for this whole corrupt department to be dismantled. Stay out there, keep your connection to one another, and only believe your eyes.

Just a big hug to all the anarchists in the Twin Cities who get dismissed all the time but knew exactly what to do when shit went down here.

the burden of proof is on the mother-fucker asserting something.

I understand why people are exhausted by AI hype, and why those of us squarely in the corner of "human dignity uber alles" see AI doomerism as self-serving hype, but I *really* think people on the left broadly need to start thinking seriously about the possibiltiy of the hype being...true.

The inevitable AI bubble-burst is this timeline’s best chance for an actual Butlerian Jihad. Everyone with eyeballs and a memory knows just how terrible the unbridled tech boom has made our everyday lives, and AI is the industry’s golden child. When this child shits its pants, everyone will see it.

Watching @whysophiewhy.bsky.social @iwriteok.bsky.social @prophiphop.bsky.social on motherfucking Netflix is WILD as someone who’s only ever ingested the brilliant content via audio alone. It’s like watching Godzilla and their pals in a sitcom format. Idk how else to describe it. LOVE this.

today's report: our "adopt a rent" venmo campaign paid 43 families rents who were at risk of evictions, including several moms of 4+ children this is the way to get rent paid fast. like. 1000x better than any other way.

Sight in San Francisco (from a friend)

i don't particularly disagree with a lot of the critiques of anarchist activism by liberals but I bristle when they act as if their best practices are any wiser. we're here because none of us figured out how to avoid being here. everyone should have some goddamn humility.

member when the feds left those cars behind in north minneapolis and there were a shitload of velcro-backed patches with various federal agency acronyms on em?

This is from Georgia Fort’s video. DEA?!? Gotta be a “task force.”

as soon as satoshi says "homage" everyone in the room laughs. aronofsky is such a shithead.

Makes sense that the man who stole from Satoshi Kon's work multiple times would make an animated series with a plagiarism machine. (clip via @ani-obsessive.bsky.social )

leaving that spicy bag of potato chips within arm's reach of my desk was a great idea for now

Some things to understand about people from Minnesota on here right now, a short thread:

wowie zowie as a card-carrying aranofsky hater AND a card-carrying AI hater this is a HUGE day for me

First trailer for Darren Aranofsky's new AI animated series 'On This Day... 1776' • Tells short narrative stories about the Revolutionary War • Uses Gen AI tools, including tech made by Google DeepMind • Has SAG voice actors

the guys who are yukin about how it's like call of duty actually truly believe they're true fighty-boys. hmm who do they think they're fighting i wonder? could it be the wrongly-vilified civilians of a blue city strongly represented in part by a woman of color who makes dear leader cry on socials?

Q: Can you be specific about how many ICE and CBP agents are currently operating in the state? HOMAN: 3,000. There's been some rotations. They've been in theater a long time. Day after day, can't eat in restaurants, people spin on you, blowing whistles at you. But my main focus now is draw down

these silly vapid buttholes don’t ever for even the blink of an eye consider why people are doxxing them

Tillis says he opposes ICE being barred from wearing masks: "I've seen people dox me. I've seen people take pictures and identify law enforcement officers and then put their families at risk. So, I think that's a step too far."
