When Grammy-winning musician Rhiannon Giddens begins playing “Old Corn Liquor,” a traditional Black American folk tune, acclaimed Chinese pipa virtuoso Wu Man recognizes similarities to Chinese pentatonic music and spontaneously joins in. The joy on their faces says it all.

A reminder for those at the back.
A redraw of the i nice panel from Frank Miller's The Dark Knight Returns, where Batman snaps a rifle in two over his knee.

He says "THIS is the weaponnof the enemy. We do not NEED it. We will not USE it."

I've replace the rifle with a plank of wood labelled "AI Slop"

trump & co have hit the accelerator towards the end of the US as a superpower i think mainly because they believe in their own propaganda. you're meant to bluster about iran, but actually know your military couldn't take them if they stood up to you. trump is too one-dimensional for that sorta thing

It is fascinating how the design sensibilities of the PS3/Wii/360 generation are all over the place. That generation lasted so long (like the SNES/Genesis) that early games DO feel sufficiently retro. Go play some of the earliest PS3/360 games. On the other end, however, you have games like GTA5.

The French and The Saudis teaming up to - essentially, yea? - rob Japan of cultural property by ...building a DragonBall park without actually paying for the rights from either Toei or Toriyama's estate is NOT the 21st Century multipolar realignment I was expecting, I gotta admit 😅

The power of Dolly was such that two years ago, when she sang Rocky Top at halftime of Georgia-Tennessee in Knoxville, I became almost a little irritated with the Vols because Georgia blew them out and by not playing better they were wasting Miss Dolly’s time

And those quick genetic tests they're touting across the country to see if trans girls or women might be in the vicinity of sports? You don't really think those tests are going to just stay at stadiums and fields, do you?

Folks I won’t tell you not to feel your feelings, but this is rage bait. He’s talking about expanding beyond politics into things like live sports.
Yeah, we want to expand it. "Breaking" is maybe the wrong word, but yes, we want to expand more and more so that Bluesky means not just one thing, not just liberal politics, for example. I will point to sports as an example from the last year. We've made a very concerted effort to bring on sports leagues and sports writers, and it's worked really well. There are a ton of sports conversations now on the app, and those people come here for the sports, not for the liberal politics. It's possible to expand.

You know what I've seen next to nothing of? Brands jumping on the 250th. No ads, no sales, no tie-ins, no nothing. Maybe there are some out there, but if I don't see them when I walk into a Walmart they may as well not exist in America. There's no percentage in anything Trump is tied to for them.

There's no catch.
We record first-person cleaning footage to help train the next generation of household robots. That data is valuable enough for us to offer cleaning services free of charge for a limited time.
So, for a limited time, we cover the cost of professional cleaners. In exchange, they record first-person video while they work.
You get a spotless apartment. We get training data.

A dad with two sons at Mr. Donut had a tray of ~20 donuts. My face is expressive. And it said, ‘Dawg that’s just irresponsible.’ Then dad got another tray & went back for more. Eldest, 8 or so, locked eyes with me. No words. But I understood. He NEEDED me to know. ‘This ain’t All Us man. 🥺🥺🥺’
