As the Moon starts getting crowded, questions of safety and responsibility are becoming hard to ignore.

Trump's economy is crumbling amid high inflation. His Big Ugly Bill has cost millions their healthcare. His war with Iran has no end in sight. His approval rating has plunged. Now he's peddling election denial nonsense to cover up his own failures.
We urgently need enforced disclosure of AI usage in TV shows & other media. These AI models use stolen work to displace human labour. It is reasonable to demand disclosures that let you avoid media made with them. variety.com/2026/biz/new...
Did you know that if #AmericanAirlines loses your luggage & never finds it, they will only compensate you for the items you have receipts for? How many of you have receipts for every item in your checked bags?! Hell, do you even have a receipt for the bag itself?! @americanair.bsky.social
I was planning to attend the InfoList Pre Comic-con Bash this Thursday night. Unfortunately a family emergency will prevent me from doing so. My apologies to anyone expecting to see me there. Hopefully next time!
Happy Sharknado Day to all who celebrate! It was 13 years ago today that life took a sudden strange turn when Sharknado premiered on Syfy, broke Twitter, and awakened the world to the menace of aerial aquatic predators.
$6.2 billion for a company that serves no purpose whatsoever. That entire $6.2 billion is simply cost added onto our healthcare system with no benefit provided. When critics say a single payer system would be too expensive, how do they justify THIS?!
Laguna Beach Democratic Club@lagunabeachdems.bsky.social · 2mo ago6.2 billion dollars in one quarter. To hit that number, a senior recovering from a hospital stay had a better than even chance of being told no. They did not lose that money. They built it, one denial at a time, out of people too sick to fight back.
Wow... Disclosure Day is a truly remarkable, powerful, and heartfelt piece of filmmaking. And while only a spiritual, and not actual, sequel to Close Encounters and ET, it is nevertheless worthy of those predecessors. Go see it!
Can someone please explain to me the last shot of the season finale of "For All Mankind"?

The debates about AI, here and on Linked are infuriating considering it's all stolen material. But I thought this was also a good response to the whole thing.
Sure sounds like Trump is trying to make the White House into a fortress for when he refuses to leave office.
Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com · 3mo agoTrump: "Between the drone-proofing, missile-proofing, & drone capacity, we can have all sorts of military -- I hate to use the word snipers -- but we have great sniper capacity. It's built for our snipers, not enemy's snipers. And bc of the height we get a very clear view of everything all over DC."
President Trump's $1.776 billion settlement with the IRS is one of the single most corrupt acts in American history. They moved fast to avoid the scrutiny of the judicial process, and very likely violated the Constitution. This is an outrage.

Trump plans to use nearly $1.8 billion in taxpayer money to pay off his friends and allies—including potentially January 6 insurrectionists.

Once again it seems to fall to me to remind everyone that STAR WARS DAY is, was, and always will be May 25th! May the 4th is just a silly pun.
$400,000,000 for White House ballroom $200,000,000,000 for Iran War $4,000,000,000,000 for billionaire tax cuts We’re told there’s no money for healthcare funding, college loans, or cancer research. Meanwhile, we’re facing soaring costs and an anemic economy while the Epstein elite are feasting.
For those who have forgotten the past 40 years: Tax cuts for the rich ...don’t trickle down Boosting military spending ...doesn’t bring peace Slashing regulations ...doesn’t create jobs Folks, we’ve seen this all before.
Our nation is again at war, not because we had to but because the president recklessly chose to. Now we must recognize who pays the price: not the president and his wealthy allies, but service members and ordinary Americans.
Trump is turning America into a 3rd world country. Our only strength is our voracious spending and military. But hey, what did you expect? You allowed a seditious convicted felon, failed businessman to be YOUR president! “What where your thinking”?
How come “How are you going to pay for it?” is never asked about endless war?
A big part of the authoritarian playbook is war. War takes over the news. War blots out criticism. War divides a nation’s people, subjecting those against it to being called unpatriotic. War grants leaders all sorts of emergency powers. War consumes everything else. We mustn’t let this war do so.
They went to war with Iran (which nobody in America was asking for) so they could conjure an excuse to allow ICE to keep murdering Americans and teargassing schools here at home with impunity (which nobody in America was asking for).
I wonder how the members of our armed forces feel about risking their lives to distract from the Epstein files?
