My wife and I started our annual Halt & Catch Fire rewatch, which means it’s time to do my annual share of @pftompkins.bsky.social alternate theme song.

Hot take: living in your parents house rent free and getting a down payment from them IS getting help from your parents. I'm glad more kids are getting that help and I hope to do the same for my own but most people I know my age (mid 30s) were told to GTFO when we turned 18.

The new voter suppression bill—called the "Save America Act"—would require 21 million American citizens to produce passports or birth certificates to register to vote. Most don't have these documents. This is a poll tax by another name. #HandsOffHerVote

this is fucking unreal stuff from Noah Wyle on the magic of The Pitt. www.gq.com/story/noah-w...
“It’s a couple of things that work beautifully in concert. First: no music. Audiences are so sophisticated, but what they’re not accustomed to is not being told how to feel,” Wyle says. “You take all that out and it forces a level of engagement where you’re now looking for clues within the frame of the screen, which forces you to look up from your phone. And I think that is extremely engaging, especially to young viewers who aren’t accustomed to being asked to participate in a nonpassive way in the viewing experience.“Second point, shooting it with almost exclusively 50-millimeter or 65-millimeter lenses, which is the most comparable to the human eye—and only shooting from the point of view of a human being that’s present in this space. There are no cameras on gurney wheels going in the hallway. There’s no cameras on the ceiling looking down from a God point of view. You are limited to the perspective of a participant. You can look away, but you can’t leave, and it becomes an endurance test for you to stay on your feet as long as we’re on our feet. Which [brings me to my] third point: real time. Real time has an aggregate sense of tension that you don’t get in any other form of storytelling. What happened before is happening now, and these two things are going to add up to the next thing. And if we throw more ingredients into this cooker and keep ratcheting it up, it’s going to pop.”Wyle makes eye contact for his next point, delivering it with a Robby-esque matter-of-factness. “Fourth point: The election went the other way,” he says with a shrug. “We could have been a really good show with a lot of nice things to say in a perfectly normal Kamala Harris universe. And instead we became almost a beacon of hope and humanity in an alternative universe. But in the midst of that, fifth point—this is essentially competence porn. You’re watching really smart, dedicated people do what only they know how to do at a level that you don’t know how to do it, and you’re so fucking glad that they’re there doing it, and compartmentalizing their own stuff to put your broken pieces back together. You’re so reassured by knowing that there are people out there that laugh and joke and have the ability to lock in like that.”

Tear gas is an expected, normalized part of protests today. But its use in war is banned. How can that be? That’s just one of the questions we investigate in this episode. From the history of tear gas to what’s in these chemicals and much more, this is an info-packed episode you won't want to miss.

George W. Bush may think that a war against Iraq is the solution to our problems, but the reality is, it will only serve to create far more.

Conservatives saying Amber Glenn got a participation trophy are so wild, she's literally an Olympian even if she didn't skate amazingly today (which she did!) she's still better than like 99.99% of us at ice skating, yes qualifying for the Olympics at all is a reason to celebrate you twats

On Polymarket you can now bet on how many people in a different market on Polymarket think Jesus Christ will return in this calendar year. 29% of bets say that more than 5% of bets in the Jesus Christ return market will be a "yes" 9 days from now. Anyway everyone involved in this needs jailtime.
Jesus Christ return before 2027 Odds >5% February 17, 12-1 AM?

People who may want to have children in the future should bear this in mind: tear gas can have serious consequences for female reproductive health. The data on this isn't great but I would at least recommend ensuring you have a quality respirator or mask on at all times.

Elijah is one I think about often too. I was volunteering at a cat shelter at the time, a lot of our younger volunteers were like Elijah, I couldn't see his name without thinking of them, and I couldn't look at them without thinking of him for a long time.
