While waiting for the foldable iPhone, please give us an iPad that had the option for cameras that matched the Pro iPhone. It would be like having an old timey large format camera.
The current camera is junk.

@dieworkwear.bsky.social Have been invited to a party in January and trying to understand what qualifies as men’s “evening attire” for a 6:30 fancy party?

I’m watching a slow train go by filled with army vehicles of all sorts. Has been going by for 10 minutes at least. Hundreds of vehicles

Used to listen to The Dr Demento Show in college. Drove my freshman roommate crazy as he didn’t understand the appeal.

But then he hated Elvis Costello too, so no accounting for taste.

I am tired of people labeling all mass killers as “mentally ill”.

Dogma and distortion can result in people doing things they consider “important”, but are in reality, evil.

If you don’t think that the average person cannot act heinously, you have missed much of history.

My family was taking a tour of New York - Statue of Liberty, Times Square Italian restaurants, and so forth - when I remembered that one of my favorite writers lived in New York City. 1/6

Despite seeing several people I totally trust say this was real I still felt I had to verify it with my own eyes. And having done so I still can't believe it's real.

Things Democratic Senators could do that would be useful:

- Withdraw unanimous consent from all Senate business until constitutional rule was restored

- Refuse to vote for any legislation until constitutional rule was restored

- Boycott as a caucus until constitutional rule was restored

Curious about the history of printing, from pre-Gutenberg to the present, and would like a book that offers a thorough but concise rundown? You can get a copy of Six Centuries of Type & Printing in a Kickstarter campaign I launched just now! www.kickstarter.com/projects/gle...

With everything so seemingly terrible these days & no sign of anything remotely hopeful in the near future, I thought you might need this photo of a baby giraffe.

Will never be on it or any Meta platform.

I have missed out on many creative people’s postings, but I will be waiting here until they choose to arrive
Taking the plunge and deleting Instagram. Despite career necessities and the joy of connecting with people I have known my whole life and some only online and recently, Meta is part of a destructive path for society and I can’t participate in it, even in my little corner.

Ann Telnaes, a Washington Post editorial cartoonist who has been with the newspaper for sixteen years, just quit her job after the cartoon below—which depicts Post owner Jeff Bezos and other CEOs bowing to Donald Trump—was spiked.

It's another huge blow to the credibility of a once-great newspaper.

Have that for “Jonathan Strange & Mr Norrell”
I recommend no fewer than 4 copies of any beloved book. A paperback for traveling and lending to friends, an eBook for reading with greasy snack fingers, an audio book so you know how the characters' names are actually pronounced, and a pristine hardcover to be buried with you like a pharaoh

Thanks to Elon Musk and Donald Trump, Republicans cut $190 million for pediatric cancer research from the funding bill.

Congrats to DOGE on their first victory.

“I have personal reasons to be grateful to Fleishman and How Comics Were Made, his deeply researched and splendidly designed new history of that great American art form, the newspaper comic strip.” —Michael Chabon
The Midnight World | Michael Chabon
Glenn Fleishman’s history of the comic strip as a technological artifact vividly restores the world of newspaper printing—gamboge, Zip-A-Tone, flongs, and all.
