Iranians around the world, according to Alito:

I'm starting to think that Tiger Woods might be a bad driver.

With Sora shutting down, there will be a lot of accounts here on Bluesky that won't be able to share their shitty AI-generated "songs" that they claim to have written. Gosh darnit that's just too bad for them, isn't it?

I don't follow college sports (or pro sports, really) but a bunch of people were lamenting financial losses after this Gonzaga thing. I think letting everyone bet real money on everything all the time is probably a bad idea, tbh. What *is* a Gonzaga, anyway? A kind of bean, or melon? #barlife

I'm fine with Trump gloating about people he didn't like when they die, because when Trump dies the entire world will rejoice, and the celebrations will last for months. The entire world hates Donald Trump, and his death will be welcomed by literally *billions* of people.

ahhh this chocolate commercial has a guy whisper-singing real close to the microphone and that's like a misophonia landmine to my senses i'm resisting the urge to throw the nearest piece of furniture through my television when it comes on aaaahhhh

I cannot stress enough how much the Oscars do not matter. It's literally an industry celebrating itself while an audience (of themselves!) applauds.

If I had a million dollars I would buy this car, put a brand new engine and mechanics into it, replace the tires, clean the windows and interior, and leave everything else exactly as it is. This car is amazing.

i'm starting to use naps the way other people use drugs.

HOLY FUCKING SHIT i know it's owned by fox but holy shit tubi is blowing my mind by having this online. Can't believe it. #RockandRule

Holy cats Tubi just showed an ad for a bong. Was not expecting that. Didn't even know you could advertise for that. Huh.

I strongly encourage RFK Jr. to get infected by as many diseases as possible.

Six decades of aggressive Republican erosion of separation between the powers, injecting rightwing theocrats into every level of civilian gov't, compromised judges, corrupt officials, & evil billionaires buying power have rotted out our foundation & it's starting to collapse into depraved fascism.

We're all going to be killed by AI drones.

in other news they're playing cinematic masterpiece "DOWN PERISCOPE" (1996) on the corner TV. #barlife

Okay so it's currently raining, snowing, AND hailing all at the same time here in Portland, Oregon.

I check in on Star Trek here every few days & boy howdy I am definitely not aligned with the vast majority of middle-aged men when it comes to new Trek. You guys really need to just shut up and tune out because the new show ain't for you. You're not the target demographic for once in your life.

Tubi just pulled Babylon 5 from the service. I was waiting for the final episode to start, having completed the series for the first time, when it skipped to a different show and now it's gone. I was LITERALLY about to watch the last episode when Tubi removed it. Un-fucking-believable.

Not watching the game, but judging by the posts, Ring just dropped a subtle hint that we're all under surveillance, huh?

Random 60°F day in Portland, Oregon. I'll take it.

There's a guy here who is a local news person, and he's gossiping loudly with a couple about all the local TV news people and whether or not they're assholes. They keep throwing names at him and he renders a verdict. Not something I ever thought I'd be present for in this particular spot. #barlife

It feels SO GOOD to read these words, I don't care if they're wrong it just feels good...

The trending algorithm on Bluesky seems to require about 12 hours to update, and really seems to favor even the smallest conversations about sports. Also, it seems I could easily manipulate the algorithm if I just post a whole bunch about spatulas or rubber bands or worms or whatever.

Wondering how long before they bypass investigations and just go straight to executions of their political enemies. Because they will.

This place is full of aging white Gen Xers and E-40 is blasting on the jukebox. Like, a whole album. #barlife

Somebody, please, just fucking do it.

Not sure who the brave soul was who shouted "pedophile protector" at Donald Trump (causing Trump to shout back "fuck you" and flip them off), but whoever they are their life is about to be shredded into pieces and they should probably find a safe place to hide with their family.

I was born into a Steelers family and will always be a Steelers fan, even when I don't pay attention. That said, I'm worried that the organization will do something dumb, like hire Grok as the team's new head coach.

Watching Babylon 5 for the first time and they have their own CBS.

Fuck the police.

I hate that my shitty invisible little social media presence is boiled down to posts of me bitching about the current state of our failing nation. I wish it was just a bunch of lame jokes and links no one but me will ever see. Instead, it's nothing but anger, despair, and frustration. Boo.

Find him.

ICE begins murdering civilians. This will only escalate and soon they'll be gunning down as many people as they can, on Trump's orders.

Trump is Hitler. America will never fully recover from what Trump, the Republican party, and millions of vicious, hateful voters have done. The country is crippled and dying, all for greed and white supremacy.

Hey look at that.

ww3 1.2

I loved this show. So calming. So harmless. Second only to The Joy of Painting.

2025 is dead.

Here's hoping he doesn't make it through 2026.

fuck off with these AI coca cola commercials.

The Democrats will *never* do this because they simply don't have the guts to stand against the GOP and all their money and power. They're just as owned.

When you ARE the law, you can BREAK the law.

ah fuck

I'm watching "No Escape" (the Ray Liotta sci-fi thing from 1994) and it's basically where we're going to be in five years. It's set in 2022.

Anybody else see this as foreshadowing?

Alright rain that's quite enough.

Oh so they're *absolutely* now going to begin fining people who show up to the airport in sweatpants.

Reminded of the years on the north side of Youngstown, Ohio, back in the late 80s/early 90s when there was graffiti tagged around the neighborhood featuring a trident & the quote "My promise remains unbroken"... like the Devil lived in Youngstown and has some semblance of a plan. Callin' bullshit.

Must be new Star Trek material out there - the white boys are angry!

I knew the Steelers were gonna lose as soon as I saw they were winning.
