Still wish I’d win the lottery already to start some of my own newspapers.

I firmly believe we’re going to see a resurgence in print overall of the next few years.

With a little less voter suppression, I suspect most people would be shocked at how quickly Mississippi swings. (Damn near 40% of the state is Black, y'all!)

The animation and design details BONES is showing off are fantastic. They do not have go this hard with unwrapping a rice ball but here we are, and it’s gorgeous.

It’s been like over a decade (maybe decades) since I’ve be into an anime as it’s been airing and I’ve never been into one and having had read the manga beforehand. So it’s fascinating watching Bones adaptation of Yomi No Tsugai, Daemons of the Shadow Realm.

Glitched

Ultimately Silicon Valley’s fatal flaw is that it has a glut of losers in a loser echo chamber and they have no idea why nobody else thinks their ideas are good and fun

Gotta offset the dumb truck with something nice and pretty.

A cybertruck with a wrap on it that has the back bed display a FORD logo for some godawful reason.

The most stupid thing I’ve seen in a while.

Trump rails against court decision that once again stalls his White House ballroom project The federal judge's decision continues to block above-ground construction on the $400 million White House ballroom, allowing only below-ground work on a bunker and other "national security facilities" at the site.

The tech industry cannot keep provoking people by saying "we will take your jobs and replace them with sexually-available fembots for bosses" and not expect that to both define AI, and light the flames of a furious opposition.

Nuance will not cut through this kind of marketing.

ICE agent charged with two felonies for pointing his gun at motorists during Operation Metro Surge Hennepin County Attorney Mary Moriarty said a nationwide warrant has been issued in the first criminal charges against an ICE agent for on-duty actions during the surge.

I suspect a lot of VFX artists would also like to see this changed in an enforceable way. Reel restrictions often mean they don’t have ways to demonstrate their current skills and training to employers.

Here’s just ONE of the artists Marvel Studios let go today:

Wesley Burt, a brilliant veteran, one of the best in the industry. He made the viral Fantastic Four Valentine’s day card!

He was also pivotal for the look of many films and shows like for example Loki, Black Panther, Avengers and so on!

US edges closer to popular vote deciding winner of presidential elections Virginia signs national popular vote bill into law, joining interstate compact with 17 other states and District of Columbia

222 votes secured in the compact, 48 more to go!

"The Pope is incorrect on matters of theology" is excommunication time.

People get sooooo mad whenever anyone [INCLUDING THOSE OF US WHO ARE GEN X] talk about how reactionary white Gen X is in particular... they usually yell about how much they hate the concept of generations, lol.

For folks who watch indie game industry news, Slay the Spire 2, in early access, outsold the *lifetime earnings* of Hades 2 AND Silksong in its first two weeks alone. Soft estimates suggest they are on track to make $250M over the next 12 months; a new record high for the Godot engine.

This is the next big scandal and it is going to get much worse as we approach the summer

Did you know you're not entitled to any compensation if you miss a flight because you're stuck in a security queue? The airline is not responsible and neither is the airport, so you lose your money

It really is quite astonishing that nobody in the media is talking about the fact that Sam Altman’s sister is suing him for sexually abusing her as a child. There was a story in the NYT in January by their tech reporter but no apparent follow-up. Seems like kind of a big deal to me?

Mayor Zohran Mamdani behind the counter of a bodega in The Bronx, flanked by various people. A journalist with a microphone labeled “Shop Cats” is standing in front of the sales counter, and holding the mic up to a black and white cat sitting on the counter next to bananas. The cat has an expression like in the famous “Sir, are you aware that you are a cat” meme

“Sir, are you aware that you are a cat, and Mayor Zohran Mamdani is standing right behind you?”

The black bearded iris is blooming!
