Atommüll-Entsorgung ist dabei noch nicht enthalten.

They are doing so many things just to not build trains.

Just build trains, you idiots!

Artist or designer pals: if a publisher were to approach you about doing a cover for the reissue of an older book (or series of books), which book would get you the most excited?

For me, I reckon it might be Bernard Cornwell's WARLORD trilogy (Winter King, Enemy of God, and Excalibur).

Almost as many US soldiered died from the Spanish Flu as on the frontlines of WW1.

Literally came here to post that meme. 😅

Yeah, I can almost feel the warm air on my skin when I look at this. Breathtaking!

Hello. I’m writing a novel. @editrixemma.bsky.social @alexbrownwrites.bsky.social

Reminder that Sun Tzu's Art of War isn't some genius-level strategy, it's full of reminders to dumb princes like "make sure your troops are fed" and "dig latrines away from where the soldiers sleep." And here we see why it was written in the first place.

Hey everybody! I am taking the helm of this classic American institution with @theonion.com and want to know what you fine folks would like to see from us.

I never understood what "barrel-chested" means, now I do. It looks exactly like someone had put arms on a barrel.

Also like ... why the Dems??? Does he think they own The Onion???

Alex Jones seems to be taking the news well

the hitlerian victims of communism foundation on twitter: USSR pin awarded to farmers for "Mastery of Cannabis Breeding". Are these your "Marxist" values??

Today I turn 89. I’ve seen this country at its best and its worst, and I know how much community matters. For my birthday, I’m asking you to stand with PFLAG and support the work that’s helped so many in the LGBTQ+ community, including me. give.pflag.org/page/95493/d...

Real talk: The reason why tech bros think AI is incredible is because they live in the world of code, and code is the one place where AI is, by and large and indisputibly, a massive force multiplier.

They just naming everything like they would name people over there? I respect it!

WHITE EMPIRICISM:

I think if you asked the median person even on Bluesky to estimate exactly how many Jewish settlers live in occupied Palestinian territory most would be off by at least 300,000.

I've tried complaining about all of these slop products being obvious scams and they know and do not care.

The FBI killed Martin Luther King Jr.

Already succeeded by making the fonts gay. The rest will follow!

I'd pay good money for that tote, Mr. Onion, sir!

Gil Duran tweet: TLDR: Fascism in response to Palantir's long fascists screed on X.

"Your Account is Suspended" Message on X

The CEO of Palantir posted a fascist manifesto on X.

I pointed out that it was fascist—which resulted in a permanent suspension from X (my second time!).

So, when you hear the tweeters complaining that BlueSky is intolerant, remember why many of us came here in the first place.

Pokémon - Nap Time

I'll be honest with y'all, I stopped counting how many Pokémon are hidden in this piece. So your guess is as good as mine.

Big mood! It's 3pm here already and I still feel this way. 😅
