I don’t have a description because I have not decided whether or not to commit to being a Guster fan account.

i would love to see Vance being sworn in interrupted by Trump climbing out of a baggage cart with a shit-eating grin
Sen. Lemon Gogurt@ugarles.bsky.social · yesterdayI need you to consider how funny his first appearance would have been after Iran killed a plane full of journalists plus, say, Marco Rubio. Picture his face not even hinting at the idea that he should show sympathy or empathy. Instead, a goofy pride that he tricked them. He can't stop grinning
“Dog bites man” that isn’t news. “Dog bites man. Perhaps woke is to blame?” Now that’s news!

Thinking about the designers, engineers, factory workers, teamsters, admins, and logistics professionals who all deserve credit for getting my child access to this tiger with an umbilical hernia.
“charlie brown had homes.” no he didn’t. that isn’t true.

Correct response to any right wing grievance is "Sorry man I don't know what that is, I only know about the president and how bad he sucks"
Miles Klee 🦉@milesklee.bsky.social · yesterdaycouple years ago i was at a bar in Portland airport and this older MAGA dude was haranguing a couple next to him about how awful AOC was, she does this, she says that, etc., until they awkwardly revealed they had never heard of her. he angrily sputtered "she's that loudmouth girl from New York!"
I don’t like living in Lewiston but not in the way most Bates professors don’t like living in Lewiston
Joshua Foust 🪖🎮@joshuafoust.com · 2d agoHe might as well just say he didn’t like living in small town Maine. That’s fine! Not everyone likes it! But few people turn that into an entire crusade against higher education the way he has.
You could not in your wildest dreams come up with a better metaphor than Harry Potter fans forcing the desecration of real remains to spare fictional ones

Whenever I post about this kind of thing, often somebody will reply “they are trying to get you used to it” No we are all mad as hell all the time, they are trying to get YOU used to it
We should not underestimate the profound theft here. Wider society is being robbed of actual skilled experts, *and* a whole generation of upcoming folks will be suspected not just of being “deskilled” but “never-skilled” in the first place.
Matthew J Kuiper@matthewjkuiper.bsky.social · 2d agoRecently trained or currently-in-training folks in most fields - docs, lawyers, teachers, engineers, writers, religious leaders, etc - will tragically be under this cloud of “did you actually learn your stuff, or are you just a chatbot conduit with a title?” Making everything better, vol 8459.
The boys at @talksimpsonspod.bsky.social nailed it with the observation that you can really track the difference between 2016 and 2025 that Zootopia is about microaggressions and Zootopia 2 is about ethnic cleansing
In a proper society, the only rational response to a 65-year-old man saying that would be pity.
I want people to go to jail for this shit
Ambassador Ken Fairfax (ret)@portlandken.bsky.social · 5d agoTales of everyday corruption. Pete Hegseth cancelled the $400,000 contract for making uniforms for the Blue Angels on the grounds that the contract with "The Sewing Box" was DEI since the firm is Black-owned. Instead, he awarded it to a Trump donor for $1,690,000, a 325% price increase!
My son was watching Arthur and there’s a bit where Arthur imagine that he gets to tell his parents to turn off the tv and go to bed. They say “awwww! But we want to stay up and watch the PRESIDENT! He’s gonna talk about THE ECONOMY”

I am hearing you say that el-Sayed is a regular guy at a diner and you are some kind of a tuxedo freak.
Bill Grueskin@bgrueskin.bsky.social · 3d agoOn CNN, El-Sayed is asked about this Trump post. He says it represents "two different visions of America:" "Two people who don't like each other but are joined in the interest of making billions of dollars off of you. Or, two people who genuinely love each other, enjoying some panacakes together."
“Are you triggered?” Ricky Gervais shouts at me shoving some kind of racist Garfield in my face.
flyingrodent@flyingrodent.bsky.social · 3d agoWe need to have to have a reckoning with the fact that our media class is mostly just dull as fuck driving gloves Tory 65 year olds who think behaving like an insufferable cunt is cool and funny
I missed international cat day by a day with this one on instagram, imagine my delight when I realized that I forgot to post it here
Like obviously, yes, pay your artists, but also I’m actually pretty sure that the economics runs in exactly opposite. In the Middle Ages (or I guess whenever that ai fish is supposed to be) labor was cheap and materials were expensive. And today materials are cheap and labor is expensive.
