X/Twitter post by user Greg Abbott @GregAbbott_TX reading: "The 2028 @GOPConvention is coming to Houston.
Welcome to Texas!
Texas is the heart of the conservative movement.
Together, we’ll secure Republican victories up and down the ballot to chart a brighter course for our party and our nation." Accompanied by an image of the Texan skyline with the text “Welcome to Texas! 2028 Republican National Convention” over it, below that is “Abbott” in smaller text and “governor” in smaller text again. To the right of the smaller text is the elephant logo of the American Republican party in red. User Richard Grenell @RichardGrenell has replied to the post with the text: "The Texas Republican Party bans Logcabin, the gay conservative group with 80 chapters across the US.
Texas is the only state that bans us from their state convention.
The national GOP Convention shouldn’t be in Texas if this ban remains.
@GOPChairwoman @tedcruz @JohnCornyn"

A one-panel XKCD-style comic with the title “The Self-Hoster” One character is seated at a computer, talking to a second character standing behind their chair. Character one says: “It took all weekend, but now that I have a Mastodon instance running in Docker behind a reverse proxy with cloud-provided media storage, I can enjoy interacting with a federated network of other users without compromising on privacy or content moderation.” Character two replies: “Cool, what kinds of topics does your network discuss?” Character one replies: “Our experiences self-hosting Mastodon instances, mostly.”

Seven stills from the movie Spaceballs, showing Dark Helmet in his room. The first still shows only the back of his helmet with the text: So, mods, at last I have you in my clutches, to have my way with you, posting whatever I want. The second still shows his hands and desk. In his left hand is a Dark Helmet action figure, and in his right hand is a Princess Vespa action figure. Further back on the table are action figures of Dot Matrix, Lone Starr, and Barfolemew. Over this image is the text: in mod voice No, no, please this is Star Wars adjacent at best. In the third still the camera angle has shifted to show Dark Helmet’s face, Lone Starr’s action figure is now in his left hand, with Dark Helmet in his right and Princess Vespa’s is standing next to his hand on the table, only the top of Princess Vespa’s action figure’s head is visible. The accompanying text reads: You can’t resist how meta this is. In the fourth still the camera angle has shifted again so that the height of the camera is in line with the desk Dark Helmet sits at. He is no longer holding any action figures, but those of Princess Vespa and himself are set facing each other on the desk and Lone Starr’s action figure is laying down on the desk, barely visible under the text reading: in mod voice This is the last straw, your [sic] getting the bansaber. In the fifth still the camera has continued its pan around the desk, showing Dark Helmet from the right. He is once again holding his own and Princess Vespa’s action figures. The accompanying text reads: Just think of all the upvotes this post will get. The sixth still shows a close-up of Dark Helmet’s hands where he holds the Dark Helmet and Princess Vespa action figures together as if making them kiss. The accompanying text reads: in mod voice Oh. So many upvotes. Mmmhmmmhmm. In the final still the camera has zoomed out again, showing Dark Helmet’s shocked face as he clutches the action figures to his chest, as Colonel Sandurz barges through the closed door behind the chair. The text under Colonel Sandurz reads: Honey are you making memes again? The text under Dark Helmet reads: No! Shut the door!
