Against my will, I just heard a influencer say: This is how Daredevil Born Again used The Sopranos to trick audiences.

And I think I’m done with the internet now.

Made a #MayDayStrong zine! Here's what we're all doing on Friday, May 1, 2026, friends -- and why! Check out the zine in this thread and check out maydaystrong.org for events near you!

4/20 KXCI Set

Back in the day.. I was a FM radio deejay. I was super-duper high on 4/20 in 2013. I got soOo many calls from listeners to spin requests, and it was the best set I ever had. I was new so some of the songs were low hanging fruit. But here's the set.

Tell me!

full agreement here. we need to start pushing back against AI in our human spaces but it’ll need to be a coordinated effort. and Gen AI needs to cease, full stop.

It is time for a change. As of May 15, 2026, our lease in Shoreline will be coming to an end after 10 years. We will be closing our retail location. While we hope to secure a new retail spot soon, in the meantime, we offer flat rate $5 shipping as well as pickup at our warehouse space in Shoreline.

Republicans deployed a little-known law to open Minnesota wilderness to mining Legal experts say the use of the Congressional Review Act to open mining near the Boundary Waters could drastically reshape U.S. public lands protections.

Until there’s an ethical way to wield it, it’s a nonstarter for me. The accelerated climate change that’s only getting worse, and land grabs is not worth it. grist.org/politics/rep...

Trots and Bonnie comic by shary flenniken. Bonnie learns from Pepsi what a Pap Smear is

I’m reading Trots and Bonnie by Shary Flenniken based on a Thick Lines Podcast review. Originally, T&B was printed by National Lampoon in the 1970s. I wish I would’ve have this when I was a kid. Has a lot of asides about women’s health and BC.

Pancreatic cancer mRNA vaccine shows lasting results in an early trial Scientists caution that more research is needed, but nearly all of the patients who responded to the personalized vaccine are still alive six years later.

"Pancreatic cancer mRNA vaccine shows lasting results in an early trial: Scientists caution that more research is needed, but nearly all of the patients who responded to the personalized vaccine are still alive six years later."

Just sobbed hardest I have since my mom died in 2020.

She missed these trials by a few months.

One of most ruthless cancers. Hard to fathom that maybe she'd still be here.

I feel such a hole inside.

In case you're wondering if we should fund mRNA research instead of another stupid war ... yes.

It's been just over ten years since @mikemignola.bsky.social and I first start talking about introducing "steampunk science guys" into the world of Hellboy, and I'm thrilled to be teaming up with the amazingly talented @christophermitten.bsky.social once again for their first solo outing!

lil personal comic; So good... 1/3

True! Fun fact: They did this because someone leaked Robert Bork’s rental history during his confirmation battle.

On January 10, 2022, the Knicks played the San Antonio Spurs at the Garden. It was Pride night. Richards was there, attending with a friend. An 18-page report prepared by Eversole's Threat Management Group and reviewed by WIRED shows just how closely she was being monitored. 07:10:20 // CAM 0241 // scans her ticket to section 102, Row 8, Seat 5 07:11:14 // CAM 1434 // goes up terrace escalators on level 3 to level 6 concourse 07:12:52 // CAM AC10 // hugs usher Appendix A of the report has a screenshot of the embrace, with Richards circled in red. 08:08:58 // CAM 1093 // talking with F&B worker at the Draft Kings Bar 08:10:49 // CAM 0512 // pays for the drinks 08:31:19 // CAM 0485 // eating at a table It goes on and on. At 8:48 pm, camera 0489 spots another quick hug with an MSG “membership experience executive” (there's a grainy photo in the report's Appendix N). Two minutes and two seconds later, the same camera captures her heading into the women's bathroom. Her exit is noted after precisely two minutes and five seconds.

The owner of MSG and the Knicks compiled this kind of second-by-second surveillance of a trans woman while they were in the arena. They're doing this at all venues owned by James Dolan of perceived enemies. Crazy, crazy shit.
