I'm only a casual F1 fan but I'm a sucker for anything that takes modern graphics/presentation and applies it to something from the past - this treatment of the 1998 Belgian Grand Prix (and its bonkers first lap crash) with modern graphics is great www.youtube.com/watch?v=c4F5...

All these deals are great & all…but when are the QB’s going to start falling??

Let’s be real…that’s all anyone cares about.

What are your best guesses?

The show that gave me the confidence to even believe someone like me could do TV. Will be forever grateful to the producers, and also @tonyreali.bsky.social, who models kindness and intelligence in a way that’s all too rare these days.

Interesting that the Lakers acquired one of the best players in the NBA and then suddenly got a lot better.

Really loved this piece by @nicksylvester.bsky.social about the necessity of inefficiency—in governance and art—and what happens when it’s sacrificed in both worlds.

I’m biased but I think his substack (mostly about music) is terrific + everyone should subscribe: open.substack.com/pub/smartdum...

his name was Sam Nordquist

he was a young trans man who was tortured and abused by 5 people for months until he eventually died

silencing any part of this story is absolute nazi bullshit

fuck the new york times and fuck anyone and everyone who is not emphatically supporting trans ppl rn
hello cis friends
this is what people mean by trans genocide

if a type of person does not officially exist, then any harm against them cannot be measured or reported

this headline change isn't even being caused by an executive order

it's simply the NYT editors deciding we don't deserve to exist

Least believable thing about Greek mythology is how every character is important and has an intricate story. No regular guys at all. Zeus should have a brother named Steve who just works at the agora and that's his whole thing
