What's a movie that "everyone has seen" that you haven't? Little Shop of Horrors - I didn’t like musicals, but I’m course correcting that.

@kevinmkruse.bsky.social I can’t thank you enough for teaching so many through Twitter (and here) about the southern strategy. It just helped me inform some people I overheard talking about why I assume the Dixie Chicks changed their band name to just “The Chicks.”

In retrospect, it took a surprisingly long time for YouTube to go from a seemingly harmless content sharing platform to massively scaled infomercial platform to radicalizing social engineering system.

@brianmbendis.bsky.social I once asked why you had young characters in your comics say Yiddish phrases, questioning that kids do that. Today I heard a mid-20s woman who was not a Caucasian Ashkenazi Jewish person say “Oy vey.” My first thought was “I was wrong for questioning Bendis.”

Since we're just giving these away now, it took just minutes to "earn" this Nobel Prize. Alt text for a11y and for extra snark. www.theverge.com/24242800/ai-...
An obviously AI-generated photo of a designer holding the Nobel Peace Prize, which our arrogant, insecure, egomaniacal dictator wannabe thinks he earned by pressuring someone else to give him. The designer has photo editing skills, but is using Gemini to comment on the social problems and ease with which one can spread disinformation today, as it's faster and cheaper than ever with nearly no effort to get consumer grade software that can generate fake images, and even remove the Google Gemini Gem watermark icon that was on the bottom using Apple Photos. If you've made it this far, thank you, and appreciate you for checking out the alt tags for a11y needs.

@tommorelloofficial.bsky.social what do you think of this photo I took outside my kid’s music class in an affluent suburb of Philadelphia? Feels like it could be useful for future album art. I need to find an up and coming band who needs it. Read the alt text for fun. 😉
Graffiti observed scribbled on the wall of an affluent suburb of Philadelphia that reads “FUCK ICE!” It’s a sign that rebellion is built on hope and that the person who did this has had enough of Stephen Miller’s racist demagoguery. His manipulation of an easily persuaded, elderly fool desperate to escape the judgement of his actions is on borrowed time. You can’t outrun the clock forever. Tik tock, you pandering callous bastards.

And we have now progressed from data analysis to policy recommendations. I told her that we'd calculate the cash value of her candy haul, that I'd ask her to raid her piggy bank and donate 1/3 the candy cash value to a local food bank, and that I'd add on a 5X match.

What would be even more awesome: Show it. Both Marvel and DC Studios do behind-the-scenes features to promote the shows and movies. Have a feature showcasing the original comic book art and contrast it w/ scenes & sequences from the movies/shows. That would create MORE interest. It'd be a win-win.

“We should treat accessibility as something that is structural or baked in or part of the DNA, if we want to be successful” — says @marcysutton.com at #perfnow “Don’t treat it like trying to put chocolate chips into a cookie after it is baked” I love this framing!

Just like web performance work, accessibility winds up being less expensive the earlier you implement it. Build accessibility in from the start, rather than bolting it on - make it part of the process. @marcysutton.com #webperf #PerfNow #a11y

A thing that people liked most about Lincoln was that he was a collaborator, and even in the darkest of times he remained thoughtful. I’m curious what Honest Abe would think about some people using his name to promote their political agenda. Good luck America.

"There are two novels that can change a bookish fourteen-year old's life: The Lord of the Rings and Atlas Shrugged. One is a childish fantasy that often engenders a lifelong obsession with its unbelievable heroes, leading to an emotionally stunted, socially crippled adulthood, unable to deal with the real world.

The other, of course, involves orcs."
