BILLY JOEL: and as they're strapping me into the electric chair, I ask if I can use the piano one last time. I had this melody in my head... <starts playing "New York State of Mind"> GUARD: He wrote it IN THE ROOM. BILLY JOEL: After that, the governor pardoned me. Whole thing took an hour, tops.

what I'm learning from this billy joel documentary is that when you find yourself in a tricky life situation, you can always get yourself back out of it by writing a legendary pop song

if america voted for ammendments and ballot props instead of human beings we would have been socialist for 50 years already

This pressing sucks shit by the way, I have to turn it up so loud to hear it at all that the pops are like booms. Alas

Every summer Tom and I return to our ancestral homeland to celebrate the anniversary of our first date (twenty-four years ago last Saturday!). There, this time, I FINALLY found a copy of my favorite album from when I was fourteen.

'You'll choke too' - an aerial embroidery landscape inspired by all the wildfires happening right now... I'm upset every time I smell smoke outside and somehow we have people starting them maliciously too! But we all breathe the same air so they'll choke too (1/2 - see thread for close-ups)

Oh my god I think I found the video.

it’s a Boorish Suitor Summer

fat little woodcock stickers are back in stock! 🎉

Today at the beach we saw a lady yell at her kids so loudly and cruelly that I am still thinking about it hours later and will be thinking about it for a long time. I saw a scar being made in front of my eyes and could do nothing about it.

I find Island Niles deeply moving.

My lock screen as mentioned in the story the other night

Think about it this way: what if your tax dollars were used to buy sophisticated surveillance equipment and guns, and then the cops never killed your dog? Wouldn’t you feel ripped off?

Opinion: Mamdani's idea may sound appealing, but it's NYC taxpayers who will take the hit, subsidizing discounts they may never even use.

Give me an “I am an adult and accept the consequences of my actions” button. I don’t reuse passwords! Let me live!!!

as always the lowest common denominator makes life worse for everyone www.404media.co/we-dont-want...

The “magic sign-in link” thing instead of a password is VERY annoying if you’re trying to be a married couple with a lot of independent media subscriptions

I've always had good password security. In college I had my debit card number memorized for making 2002-era online purchases. I have used a very secure password manager for over a decade. My reward? A life of retrieving six-digit codes from my email and phone. Every day I suffer

Deeply fucked that “regardless of what genitals a little girl has, I don’t think adults should demand to look at them” is considered a radical freak position in some corners

I had become accustomed to thinking that a viral post on Bluesky was 4000 likes but every day for the past week I’ve seen something like this that has 27,000

This is Loki, our Maine Coon and the cat of our hearts, and he went missing today. We have no idea how he got out, but he’s an elder, indoor cat, the whole region’s in an intense heat wave, and we’re really scared. I doubt I have any followers here in Martinez, CA, but if so, help? It’s SO hot

Tom caught me talking to a chipmunk and said “you are so reticulated aren’t you” >:[

I'm about 25% through @boneysoups.bsky.social's THE RED SACRAMENT and I am hooting and hollering!

In this episode ill be eating everything i find under my couch. Glory to god the creator. Without Him we are nothing. Alright lets get this couch lifted up. LOTTA cat hair wow. Ok lets get started

Penelope literally dares the suitors to hit the back walls and only Odysseus can 🥰

people are really out here In Defense of AI about stuff that’s like, writing something down. “how else would I remember this?” you’re talking about expressing ideas through language and images. we figured this out already!!!!

An incredible performance. His last scenes destroy me with their vulnerability. (Did you know: the “boat” was a built set placed on struts with crew guys moving it to simulate bobbing in the ocean!)
