Can we talk about Tony Gilroy’s Peabody speech? Thanks for sharing @d2lo.bsky.social - echos again of Marva in Andor. I still can’t think of a more prescient speech in fiction right now. Marva first because of the impact it carries:

My broad healthcare in Belgium costs 14.75 euros/month. Our cleaner is subsidized and costs 9 euros/hr. We don't need a car because everything is within walking/cycling/metro distance.

RIP Sam Kieth. Damn this one hurts. His art style was cartoony and detailed in the best possible ways. His covers for Detective comics are unlike anything else of its era.

I tried to give Nintendo the benefit of the doubt, I tried looking at the positives, but really it's just arse and another step the industry is pushing us towards game leasing and not game ownership. The global trend of companies pushing us all to lend over own is not healthy.

Professional wrestling, especially the presentation and pageantry, has been a tremendous influence on my stage show. I couldn't help but cop some moves from Finn Balor during 'Discordance'.

I beg to differ. Gobots are universally acknowledged to be better than Transformers because they could be ANYTHING; a boat, a plane, a tank, the only limit was your imagination. Transformers had to be CARS, they could only be cars. And one pencil. WINNER: Gobots!

Birbfest Day 17th: Spangled Cotinga Trying a bit of color for today’s Birbfest postcard and I’m obsessed with this bird’s palette 😭💙💜 #birbfest2026 #sketchbook #birdart #art

A postcard-style illustration with a textured black border and a “Birbfest 2026 25¢” stamp in the top right. A spangled cotinga perches on a tall tree stump with moss on top. The bird is bright turquoise-blue with a deep magenta throat and dark wings, with a spiky crest. Thin vines hang from the top corners, and a soft warm peach glow sits behind the bird.

Loved this conversation. One of the reasons why I've really enjoyed doing climate risk work in insurance - it hits a very different slice of the information ecosystem than academia, in a way that I hope is complementary.

I’ve learned not to assume that other guitarists already know what has taken me a lifetime of strumming to learn. My first and simplest piece of advice is to always tune your guitar before playing anything, as soon as you pick it up, tune up. It’s like a pre-flight check for an airplane. Tune first.

It is remarkably frustrating to me to watch a system break down against a kind of threat its systems were *designed* - reasonably well designed! - to defeat because everyone whose job it is to actually *do* that is busy hiding under their desks hoping against hope someone else will bell the cat.

Vienna has been dethroned. The new "world's most livable city" is [drum roll] Copenhagen, which was also, in a separate survey, recently ranked the world's happiest city. US cities basically do everything exactly the opposite of Copenhagen, which is why not a single US city is in the top ten.
