I went to Texas and met Irish TV star Dara Ó Briain. He was there recording the eclipse in "sunny" Austin for his upcoming sequel to Wonders of the Moon on Channel 5.

Truly an insane work culture we have here in the U.S.

s. eek smith 👻 @sesmith.lol · Apr 2

The fact that we have to pass a law saying that it is okay to not be at work when you are not at work...

California could be 1st state to give workers right to ignore boss’s after-hours calls, texts, emails

Are you trying to log on through a browser or did you download Steam?

Langhorne @ljtweed.bsky.social · Apr 2

Odd. Steam is the main reason I game as much as I do.

I have a Crow shadow in my house. I should post that some day.

Mark @chaosmonkey.bsky.social · Apr 2

Crow with his "hair" "slicked back" is always so fucking funny.

Crow T. Robot and Tom Servo of MST3K dressed fancy for an awards show.

I mean everyone is all "John Wick, The Punisher, SquareJaw McGunBonner!" No. Bugs does not kill. He makes you *regret*

It's waaay better than shingles. I'll tell you a true-life horror story involving a dancer, rehab, and The Man of La Mancha sometime.

Bummer. Another actor I was fortunate enough to work with has died. A great actor and a great guy. #memmetwalsh

I feel seen.

the image is of a plant nursery.

The caption reads, "ask your ancestors, seek their wisdom, let them guide you. My ancestors:"

The sign at the plant nursery reads BOG DWELLERS AND HEAVY DRINKERS.

the delicate balance of power

The scene is set somewhere deep inside a human body, as two weird little blob guys are seen chewing on the floor of a large wet mass, presumably the tissue of a body.
A differently shaped blob, with craggy lines in it like a stone of some sort appears at the corner, interrupting the reverie of the first two blobs and brandishing a knife as he warns that "you microplastic punks better fuck off, this is lead turf."
The two types of blob dudes are swept up in a violent brawl. One microplastic tears at a lead guy's skull with his teeth while, elsewhere a lead has a plastic pinned down and swings at him wildly with a bloody knife. It is a bloody, terrible scene of savage cruelty and animosity.
The scene pans out further to show a human's head in silhouette, an x-ray of his brain showing it as a soggy and torn up mass of blood and flesh.
We zoom out further to see the man within whom this battle rages, him unaware, a contented smile on his face as he says "I can legally operate a forklift.

1988. Great movie. It was the first invite-only preview I had ever attended. Enjoy.

i cannot express the pure animal fear this image just invoked in me. if my car broke down and i saw one of these driving toward me i would just start running as fast as i could in any direction and never return
