During one of the tours we were on, we came into a quaint little coffee shop, and I got some milk tea with a print of two cats fighting. Sharing as I go, more to show later. #China

I hate it here, at this point in time in history in the universe, for so many reasons I can't begin to list, we all deserve better

Got a surprise package in the mail from Searchlight Pictures for the film Rental Family. Love the camera, the origami, the paints. But it's definitely the first time someone has ever sent me a bonsai tree! #RentalFamily

Damn, its almost as if they shoved this in everyone's face and almost everyone collectively said, "nah, we're good." #AI
ICYMI: Microsoft’s charge “implies a more than $12 billion quarterly loss at OpenAI, said Firoz Valliji, an analyst at Bernstein.”

That “would mark one of the largest single-quarter losses for a tech company in history.”

What's that middle ground of being anxious about something and excited for it at the same time?

... Eustress! That's it. I'm eustress right now. 😁

Another I remember was Sony's Pre-E3 event before E3 2017 where they decided they wanted to amp up the realism for their presentation. During the Call of Duty: WWII trailer, they flashbanged the audience with a real flash bang grenade behind the screen. Wasn't painful, but it was a dick move

A company once sent me (and others) this type of locked timer box with a countdown and an embargo. Yes, in the mail!!! Almost everyone I knew who got this either threw it out immediately or broke it open with a hammer. I let the timer run down. What was inside?

Unsolved Mysteries premiered 39 years ago. When this music hit, you knew you weren't getting sleep. Whatever did happen to that missing soldier? The bank robbery conducted by ghosts? And what of the alien signal this family's TV set? All those and more on tonight's Unsolved Mysteries...

From KSL, this isn't photoshopped, this is a toxic inversion. We're doing absolutely nothing to address the human factors that contribute to this. And we're supposed to get the Winter Olympics again?

I feel like more people really need to listen to and share the @tmbg.bsky.social classic "Your Racist Friend" these days. #TMBG Still relevant 36 years later.
