I don’t think I’m ever going to get the appeal of pivoting to video for podcasts. I’ve been listening to podcasts for 20 years, and never once have I thought, my God, I need to SEE these people! I’m on a walk or doing the dishes, I don’t need video.

This is the funniest thing I've seen today, possibly ever

Star Trek has had its ups and downs with me, but honestly, I'd have to say that my favourite line out of ALL of Star Trek (relying on context, naturally) is @georgetakei.bsky.social 's "FLY HER APART THEN!" Oooh, armhairs at attention, every time. Sulu should've got a captain series.

It's the oddest thing recently with clothes. Ived need to buy a bunch because of sizing but I want a lot more cotton stuff for the comfort feel. I'm usually a functional, low decision, wear same thing every day person.

The image is of a four panel comic.
The first panel shows Sarah, the protagonist, holding a red ball labeled "A SILLY MEME".
The second panel shows Sarah taking the ball and going through a door labeled "GROUP CHAT".
The third panel shows a group of women sitting together and consoling one woman in the center. The woman in the center is saying "...And that's how it happened. It's been the worst day of my life."
The fourth panel shows Sarah standing in the doorway behind them awkwardly holding the red ball.

Rule of thumb. If you find yourself asking "Am I over thinking this?" then the answer is "Yes".

Here’s the most incredible story you’ll read today. A small plane with four people aboard crashes in a field. Another pilot witnesses it. That pilot happens to be flying a bunch of skydivers. They offer to jump to assist, are given permission. The skydivers happen to be EMTs. Everyone survives.

Skydivers alert emergency crews, assist after plane crashes near East Troy airport
Four people were aboard the single-engine plane when it went down in a cornfield near Carvers School Road in East Troy at about 1:30 p.m.

Whenever someone refers to me as a runner I still feel awkward about it. I mean I am by any objective measure but internally it still feels odd.

The image is of a four panel comic.
The first panel shows Sarah, the protagonist, working at a desk. A brain next to her says, "We need to take breaks!"
The second panel zooms in on Sarah's face. She is annoyed. She says, "What if I don't listen to you?"
The third panel shows the brain smiling.
The fourth panel shows the brain reaching towards a lever. The brain says, "I'LL MAKE YOU."
