Is "here to..." a new sock puppet template or a cultural meme I missed

A list of bsky followers, and all of their bios start "here to talk..."

RIP Sam Neill. Time to rewatch Hunt for the Wilderpeople.

Movie poster for Hunt for the Wilderpeople featuring a chubby Maori tween trying to look tough, a grizzled white man (Sam Neill) with a rifle trying to look tough, a cavalcade of other endearing and hilarious characters, and pickup truck and police car at chaotic angles like they're flying off a cliff

A rare win for #Democrats and #NCpol. We love to see it. Free Palestine!

History made. Together.

The North Carolina Democratic party just passed historic resolutions into our platform.

Arms embargo resolution passed
407-89

Our platform affirms human rights, international law, and the dignity of all people.
peace justice accountability hope

Thank you!
To everyone who spoke up, showed up, and voted for a more just future.

NCDP leads.
We will keep leading with our values.

Excellent loaf by Laverne (and photobomb by Shirley). Photo by my teenager.

Post a photo by you of an original painting by anyone (Took these @ Casa Azul last year)

A painting of watermelons by Frida Kahlo. The melon in the front & center says
VIVA LA VIDA
FRIDA KAHLO

A self portrait by Frida Kahlo with a lot of symbolism I can't explain well, including the earth, a dove, Karl Marx, and more
She's depicted in a brace and crutches are falling away

You’re trapped in the last TV show you watched. Where are you?

Shane talking on the phone "me trying to get on with my everyday life"

Ilya, the bisexual menace, about to attack "heated rivalry"

And we can all see it

The cover of the children's book The Emperor's New Clothes by Hans Christian Andersen pictures by Anne Rockwell

The last time I described the actual illustration, the people upstairs didn't like it

Ruby S.@rubyji· Jun 9

OMG. @moderation.bsky.app labeled this children's book cover as adult content

The same post I'm replying to but with the cover of The Emperor's New Clothes labeled as Adult Content

I just saw I Love Boosters. I already loved @bootsriley.bsky.social but it blew me away! It's so clever and so very very fun to watch. He understood the assignment of "making the revolution irresistible." www.imdb.com/title/tt3082...

Poster for the movie I Love Boosters.
It's crowded with about 15 colorful characters looking hilarious

I don't recall sitting for this portrait but it's surprisingly accurate

Painting of a glamorous black cat sitting on a red sofa. It has a cocktail in one hand and a smoking something in the other. There are other treats like chocolates on the table. The cat is wearing pearls and a stole.

At least Douglas Adams gave us the Point of View gun (still the only 🔫 I ever wanted)

I still image from the movie Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, which shows a white woman (Trillion/Zoey Dechhanel) in the center and a black man (Ford Prefect/Yasiin Bey) to the side holding a goofy-looking space rifle.

True except for these guys. They're welcome to hang out in there as long as they want

I still love Shane and Ilya taking a break from making out to smile at each other, with the text
"Imagine not watching heated rivalry and missing out on this joyful psychosis"

Ruby S.@rubyji· May 14

Yes because then your followers will want to argue with them, and so on and so on

Um wow

I worked as a mainstream reporter for a couple decades before AI and social media ended fact-based gatekeeping and that experience wasn't a function of where I existed on your version of a political spectrum. Go eat a bag of stale dicks. Thanks.

As if art isn't inherently political! It's just that the politics are usually more acceptable to the ruling class www.theguardian.com/world/2026/m...

Before the event, the jury – which selects the winner of the Golden Lion prizes – resigned en masse after stating they would not consider entries from countries whose leaders were subject to international arrest warrants (which would have barred them from including Russia and Israel).

An Italian news outlet claimed that the jury resigned after they were told by the biennale’s legal team that they could be held personally responsible if Israel decided to pursue the matter legally. On Wednesday, a representative from the biennale confirmed to the Guardian that the report was accurate.

He did block me. I was about to be very disappointed with myself if not.

This seems healthy and normal

I'm cracking up that the only technical problem they've had is not being able to communicate terrestrially with the sat phone

Why do people keep doing this? Stop it.

I recently read that millennials (the students I taught!) might be the last generation to be able to #think and write without using #AI. So I gave #chatGPT the following prompt:

Woodcut printed street art by the brilliant Subterraneos collective in Oaxaca www.instagram.com/p/DWPKiV2CTe0/

A huge wood cut print on cream colored paper on a bright red wall. The image is of a peasant holding one lovely cent in his hand and a shovel in the other. In the foreground is a figure who looks like a businessman or politician (probably a specific Mexican politician) (in sunglasses and wearing an expensive watch) with grotesque claws. Out of his mouth is coming paper that says
"REFORMAS
Energética
Educativa
Financiera
Electrical
Laboral "
