Today I was asked if I work at Walgreens because I looked "no nonsense" and like I knew what I was doing. I guess I appreciate that?

Netanyahu: “Hamas is stealing the aid” Update: www.cnn.com/2025/07/25/p...

I think it’s worth noting this piece generated the most unsubscribes I’ve seen in a while, and the newsletter version had the lowest open rate in many months. These horrors persist in part because too many people go to great pains to avoid them.

Really enjoyed the thoughtfulness of the College Rock Chronicles pt 2 on BYR 2k, @hollywoodsteve.bsky.social -- a few gems for sure. As an almost-47-year-old, the '90s should be my foundational music, but I want to burn most of it to the ground. 😅🔥

I think I watched every episode of NOW with Bill Moyers on PBS on Friday nights (I led such an exciting early 2000s) 😢

Inspired by what's been going on in NYC? Wisconsin can have fresh, progressive representation again. Get involved in a party that puts people over profits @wiprogressiveparty.bsky.social

Is Big AI paying men to get in their feelings when someone doesn’t have any interest in their product? They take it so personally! Have an iced tea bro! It’s summer.

Late on this, but your Beyond Yacht Rock 2000 Crooner Career Crisis!! list was creative and thoughtful, as usual, @hollywoodsteve.bsky.social. Two things: "gently satanic facial hair" had me 😈 and that Mel Torme tune is a banger

Top notch content (ep 110) yet again from Beyond Yacht Rock 2000. Strong entries, @hollywoodsteve.bsky.social, but I'm not sure anyone beat Hunter's arguments for Clark County, NV, the great country of Canada, and Bay City, MI. I need to check out that small museum in the splinter ward 😆

Because I've seen some conspiracy theory level bs being thrown around: the prostate cancer Joe Biden has comes out of nowhere. His previous exam would have shown no cancer, then suddenly stage 4. My dad had this very cancer, metastisized to his bones as well. It is painful, he died from it. 1/2

Italy, you've charmed me with your glam Eurovision entry this year

Another thing I could die from that I can now obsess about

the new york sewer rats have finally elected a new rat pope

Another killer list, @hollywoodsteve.bsky.social Your Beyond Yacht Rock (2000 and before) episodes are the best. Chef's kiss taste in music.

Fritz the Hat *ba-dum ching*

I enjoy finding my (deceased) dad's handwriting on things 😂✝️

Listening to a podcast from 2017, and the hosts are lamenting some of the terrible things the president is talking about doing. Just wait until 2025, boys. Just wait.

Is it Jared?

How weird that everyone is talking about Neil Gaiman today. Did something happen with that story just now? I listened to a whole podcast and read a bunch of articles about it a few months back. I thought that guy was already a forgotten slime of history.

Do regular people use windsocks anymore? I made like two of them in middle school
