Last plug for this, I promise. Inspired by this post from @wendyxu.bsky.social which stuck with me for so long, I had to make some DIY (no genAI) art about it. Debut performance from a promising young star named Hugo. It's (mini) dachshundtastic!

Mani RIP. x
I recall an interview where he was asked what it was like playing with Shields on stage. "I'll be watching him and just before he taps a pedal with his foot, he'll look across at me as if to say, This is REALLY going to fuck you up."

I was at a metal clubnight in Manchester wearing this jacket. The Irish guy queuing at the bar next to me loudly says to the barmaid "Nah, Judge Dredd here was ahead of me"

A local bakery just posted this photo on Facebook. I’ve gotten stuff from her before. Nice older lady. I do not know if she made it but…it’s perfect. Perfect.

Again, not to go on about ai but I have a few thoughts.

1. I've genuinely never seen an actual creative get excited about using it. Someone who has actually made something before. Its people from marketing and finance backgrounds getting excited about a false sensation of making something.

It's a small graphic design detail, but the loitering guy on TTC signage is actually in front of the red slash, casually leaning against it, making him look *unbelievably* cool.

Idk which circle has the replica of Guantamo Bay staffed by men who were tortured at Abu Ghraib taking orders from murdered Iraqi children but I know their admissions office is quite pleased by today's arrival.
As Bluesky's general functionality continues to improve, there are times you may find it difficult to search for the content you need. So as a public service announcement here's the video clip you are trying to find to post when discussing the death of Dick Cheney today apnews.com/article/dick...

The New Yorker have somehow made one of the greatest comedy skits in British television funnier through idiotic editing
This New Yorker documentary about the 1988 UK government ban on broadcasting the voices of Sinn Féin and I.R.A. leaders is pretty good but they show *that clip from The Day Today with no explanation and no indicator that it is satire.

Monday mornings are depressing, but can be made approx 5% more bearable by watching a music video about a mini dachshund who dreams of becoming so famous he triggers a global work stoppage.

Ann Savage bullies a Hitler-faced pumpkin for Halloween 1942 publicity:

“Green-eyed starlet Ann Savage is about to give this Hitler-pumpkin a poke in the nose. With the way things are going in Stalingrad, it’s hard to imagine why the old boy should be smiling.”
