There is only 4 years age difference between these two actors! #starwars

I see now why weak middle aged men love the Bible so much: a dude summons two bears to maul a group of kids who mocked his baldness…
Among other auch stories :/

So with Castlerock mentioned in Wonderman, does that make @marcbernardin.bsky.social canon in the MCU? :D

Every time I return to watch Children of Men, it has become more and more prescient.

In a video about the US Presidents from a number of years ago, @johndruddy.bsky.social made a joke about the Monroe Doctrine:

"Monroe strongly opposed European intervention in the recently independent nations of Latin America. That would later become the USA's job!"

That's ringing truer every day.

Awwww The Last Unicorn. Pure magic

It seems today thay all you see is shows that should’ve died a loooong time ago being dragged on a zombie death march by capitalists who refuse to let a good thing end on a high.

@clisare.com ah Jaysus it’s herself! Fair play to ya :D

Guys, we’ve past the “First, they came for…”.
We’re now on “THEN, they came for…”
The water’s a lot deeper than what you seem to think.

Facts don’t care about your feelings?
FASCISTS DONT CARE ABOUT YOUR FACTS!

That beach scene still haunts me

Yup! We can get all four seasons in one day here!
If yous are coming in the Derry direction send me a DM. I do walking history and Derry Girls tours. I’d love to show you around!
Enjoy yourselves!!

I hate how the nature of social media demands everyone’s instant reaction to big news, huge events demanding our hot take, our opinion, our response to what has just happened. Be it humour, solemnity, pointing out hypocrisy etc
We divide ourselves on opinion, squabble, react, and round&round we go!

I feel like we’re going to be seeing some seriously passive reporting soon along the lines of “entire freedom flotilla drowned in freak simultaneous multi-drone incident” #freedomflotilla #freepalestine #palestine #israel

I live in the Los Angeles area right now, and yeah—things feel scary. But let me be clear about something: LA isn’t rioting. We’re showing up for each other. We’re protecting our neighbors from being torn out of their homes by ICE, from being dehumanized and erased by a government trying to pretend some of us don’t belong. This city, as much of this country, is full of people who’ve been made to feel like they don’t count—and we’re standing up to say that we do. Trump wants to paint LA as full of looters and criminals because facing the truth would mean admitting he’s the one fueling violence. That what’s happening here isn’t chaos—it’s community. It’s a city refusing to be broken, screaming we take care of each other. So of course he calls us insurrectionists - despite himself having literally staged an attempted insurrection a few years ago. Because if he admitted what we really are—furious and united—he’d have to admit how hollow his power and message actually is and how not only are our actions a threat to him but why we fight. We see through him. As a trans person, I know what it means to say we’re not what he, or anyone else says, we are. I’ve been living my whole life having people trying to tell me that. We are so much more. We are one another’s shelter. And we’re not going anywhere.

Christ! Are you out protesting? :o
