you know that thing where you walk past your cat cleaning her parts and she just stops with one leg up and stares at you with an inscrutable expression and you feel like you’ve done something maybe unforgivably wrong?
the scene from the shining where someone in a bear costume is kneeling down in front of a sitting man in a tuxedo. they are looking directly at you.

No more Drake memes, please!
Levar Burton on Star Trek, holding up his hand as if to say “No way”: 
Text: “Using the Drake format despite him constantly and inappropriately texting teen girls like Millie Bobby Brown and
Billie Eilish”

Levar pointing as to say “Now that’s a great idea”:
Text: “Switching to a format celebrating beloved LeVar Burton in one of his most treasured roles while bringing to attention that Drake inappropriately texts teenage girls”

prescription drug coverage is some of the most demonic shit you will ever encounter in your life. my doctor prescribed me a medication and somehow there are now at least two third-party corporations involved for no apparent reason and nobody knows what is going on or what needs to be done

A digital illustration of a version of the big board from Wheel of Fortune. An array of green rectangles (each bearing an icon of a hand with crossed fingers inside a circle with rays), and white rectangles that indicate the letters in the secret phrase contestants are trying to guess. The board is not yet solved and reads like this:

M_YB_ I_
_ILL H_PP_N
__D_Y

Standing next to the board in a shiny pink and maroon evening gown and ready to turn around newly-guessed letters is a woman whose head is a human hand with crossed fingers. 

Below the board in the space where viewers at home are informed what type of  phrase is in play it simply reads ‘PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE’

"We were letting actual 8th graders sneak into our wild drug and sex parties at our Silicon Valley AI group house" is the most eyebrow-raising quote among many from that New York Times piece, IMO. www.nytimes.com/2026/09/21/t...
The house quickly became a hub for events. Eric Zhu, 19, a tech entrepreneur, said he used to sneak into parties there when he was about 13. No one checked anyone’s age, he said, and “it was pretty crazy.”

Fun fact: the global wellness industry, composed mostly of unregulated snake oil, is at about $6.32 trillion dollars a year, 4x larger than the pharmaceutical industry. Similarly, Roblox is worth $44 billion to Valve's $10 billion. Roblox has more concurrent users than Steam.

i don't know if people who don't live in the PNW are aware of this but there's like a regional conspiracy theory that's closely aligned with QANON and sort of holdover reactionary anti-BLM sentiment, the idea is that the fires are all arsons, all started by arsonists working for (((them))) etc

Benjamin owns a farm. He employs 100 workers plowing his fields. His total payroll is $10 million/year. One day, he buys a mule, which provides the worker who uses it with a modest 10 percent productivity gain. Benjamin fires 99 of his workers and purchases 99 mules, expecting a 1,000 percent productivity gain. The driverless mules cause plow damage to his property in excess of $50 million. Benjamin loses another $5 million due to the loss of productivity from his one remaining employee, who no longer guides a plow but instead spends 100 percent of his time shoveling mule shit.

If you look for “pride deadlift party” on instagram you will encounter a network of gyms from Seattle to Shefield that are hosting huge inclusive fitness events. They are mostly in major blue enclaves, but there’s one in Tn this year! A growing movement and great way to connect with good people

The animation chat has me thinking one telling thing - in the years since AI arrived, there's not been a ground-up indie phenomenon, like we saw with earlier tech (Flash, etc). It hasn't unlocked anyone's creativity. For all the anti-gatekeeping rhetroic, nothing anyone cares about has been born.

A round seal with the Destiny tricorn that says CANON COMPLIANT. @haykebyr.bsky.social designed it for me and I had it made into an ink stamp and sent to Ash.

When we take back power, I do not want unity or healing, I want revenge. I also don't want a lecture on "but that's just like Trump, he wanted revenge." He was wrong, we are right. It's different. Get a moral compass. Revenge or sit down. Call it "justice" if you must, it's that too.
