Actor @markruffalo.bsky.social joined @jimacosta.bsky.social and @normeisen.bsky.social to call out the proposed Paramount’s Deal for Warner Bros.

My *pleasure* to be able to support! I can't wait to see the film 😁❤️

I’m grateful to the people of Canada for doing what they can to pressure the Trump administration via boycotts, and we’re planning to reallocate our tourism dollars to Canada this summer.

These kinds of profiles are insulting but make a lot more sense when you realize there are a lot of highly paid PR people that leverage their connections to place these kinds fawning coverage in the NYT and other national magazines. It's always been indirect pay to play for the wealthy.

A macro photo, side view, of a long, pale-colored moth atop a bright yellow flower against a blue sky background. The moth is mostly white with tiny dark speckles. It has long, thin antennae, pale blue eyes, and a pretty fringe at the trailing edge of its wings.

Micro-moths/micro-leps are catch-all terms for the precisely eleventy-zillion species (although experts say there may be as many as umpteen-gazillion) of tiny moths from various moth families. They're always worth a close look; zoom in for the lovely blue eye. (Anza-Borrego Desert, CA) 🌿🐙 #Bugsky

That video of Melania with the robot. I have questions. Like ... which one is supposed to be the AI 🤖?

I like using adverbs.

Thank you 😂

Congratulations and well deserved - looking forward to seeing it:)
