(I'm going to the funeral of a family friend whom I had a huge amount of respect for- he was more or less kicked out of the local Baptist church for being too progressive)

Idle curiosity led me to check out Temu, and holy shit it's creepy. The gamification, the constant offer of 'free' items that aren't actually free (and you may or may not actually get), the minimum $50 spend... Huge ick.

More gas is used to convert gas to LNG exports than is used by the entire manufacturing industry. We don't need more gas. #NoNewGas #TAXtheGAS
Charts showing gas use/size by PJ:

LNG exports: 4,425PJ
LNG conversion plant use: 437PJ
Manufacturing: 370PJ

Art by @reforest-kelley.bsky.social. A reminder for Labor Day.
Fan art of Chief Miles O'Brien, Leeta, and Rom from Star Trek: Deep Space Nine. The three are seated in Quark's bar. Miles is explaining something to the other two. The upper caption reads, "The boss needs you, you don't need the boss"; the lower caption reads, "Labor is entitled to all it creates".

Studios track the metrics from pirated content and add it to their "people like this IP, let's make more" jar. Piracy still keeps the IP culturally relevant. Let it go.

Oh, Tim. Frank-N-Furter, Pennywise, that face, that voice, that wicked little GLINT. So strange, glamorous, funny, frightening and completely unforgettable. Thank you for the thrills, the nightmares and the absolute pleasure 🩵
Three illustrated tributes to Tim Curry: two portray him as Frank-N-Furter from The Rocky Horror Picture Show, and one as Pennywise from It. Two are vibrant, retro-inspired digital illustrations, while another shows a fine-liner pointillism portrait alongside its finished printed artwork.
