Robert McNeesThis is probably the best thing I ever posted on Twitter. The memory is pretty dear to me; I'm sharing it here so it still exists somewhere if that place collapses.

@Dutch I don't know how to decide on best ever, but one I really enjoy and recently rewatched is The Green Knight. A dark, atmospheric fairy tale that examines the nature of heroism and how we confront death. Great performances, esp. from Dev Patel and Alicia Vikander. And I always enjoy the Arthurian mythos as a setting.
@Malaclypse haha wow
@doot can't believe frog cowboy didn't win, can't people see he has a little hat
HauntedDoctorNot sure who needs to hear this today, but remember, your local public library benefits from being used! Usage statistics are how librarians argue for funding! By using this shared service more, you are making it BETTER for everyone else!
It's the glory of the commons, not the tragedy of the commons. Go to the library!!!
Parker MolloyJust going to put this out there: you cannot vote for a Republican and pretend to care about LGBTQ rights. The two things are diametrically opposed. It's a party centered on restricting abortion, restricting LGBTQ rights, and that's pretty much it. If, in 2023, you're still ID-ing as a Republican or voting for Republicans, you don't get to pretend that you support these causes, because your actions speak much, much louder.
@mtsw Gonna tell each of my deputies a different dumb idea to see which one is leaking my dumb ideas to the press
Remember when NYT got rid of the Public Editor, a position that existed to respond to feedback about the paper's coverage and whatnot? And replaced it with, "Hey, readers can just use social media!" And then whenever they'd get criticized on social media all the reporters would circle around to accuse critics of trying to silence them? And then they told their reporters to pay less attention to social media, making it effectively impossible to question the decisions of the people at the paper?
Juan Carlos MuñozLook, I'm biased, but this model of Barad-dûr that my dad built out of wood *from scratch* is pretty damn awesome! Check out this video for the making-of: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hGNPfhXXMbc
