The British commentator of this World Cup game pronounces South Korea as “South Career”

We are parked outside a Mexican restaurant in Ann Arbor. Several people in waiter/host type clothes just came out and started watching the Mexico World Cup game on the patio TV when it started.

Sounds like Windsor actually wants people to watch the fireworks?? Cannot relate on the Detroit side, where most of our “award winning riverfront” will be closed during the fireworks. Can’t have the public using public space

I thought folks were joking that the #stlSinkhole had a fire… well, a City Street department truck was on fire at the sinkhole. 🧐 I’m telling you this really could be a tourist attraction. 🔥

*rolling one of these AV carts into my own living room* Hello, class. Today we’re going to watch a movie

Detroit and Metro Detroit, can we start putting some events on like a Wednesday night? There cannot be 5,000 festivals every single Saturday, you gotta spread them out

Apparently RFK Jr visited Hurley Children’s Center (a part of the Hurley Hospital system) in Flint today. Absolutely disgusting

The Tohono O'odham Nation has asked a federal judge to immediately halt pending plans by the U.S. Department of Homeland Security to build 62 miles of border wall through their reservation. tucson.com/news/local/b...

Ellsworth Kitty did a jump so graceful I’m threatening to rename him Baryshnikov

While I'm on the subject of Missouri Madness, it's also really sad to see the state is planning to terminate a good chunk of Missouri Department of Conservation positions. Boo!

Dad would love a nice coffee table history book for Father's Day. www.barnesandnoble.com/w/lost-treas...

I finished a yogurt and mindlessly left the yogurt cup out. I think Ellsworth found it while I was out of the room. The inside of the cup is almost cleaned out enough to go straight in the recycling

There was a period when Flickr was really great and fun. You could meet other people with niche infrastructure interests and enjoy your weird infrastructure interests together. Old twitter was also great. I met so many people on there, and broke a few stories.

It’s serviceberry season! I ate so many berries today

Last post on the topic (I think): Gonna listen to the album Livonia by His Name Is Alive later

At tonight's 2nd @stlbworks.bsky.social Earn-A-Bike cohort launch of the day, I was checking the height of a petite 8yo as she chose the bike she'll take home after 6 weeks of class. "Can you tell me what that is in inches?" "Sure! You are 50 inches tall." "OK, great. I need to know for Six Flags!"

Maybe this is the person who wrote the unironic Livonia tourism article

There is an unironic “consider visiting Livonia!” tourism article that does not rly make a compelling argument for visiting Livonia. It’s is an article written with the thesis “I live in Livonia and I like knocking around doing activities on the weekends” that thinks it’s making a tourism argument

If this goes through, we'll lose access to platforms that protect our privacy via their terms and conditions. DO YOU UNDERSTAND THAT? This is cops doing what they do: making up an imaginary threat in order to abuse their positions of power so that they can do what they want, without oversight! #c22

TIL that Kenny Loggins has a trans son and that he is a super awesome and supportive dad.

Canada's gift for its sesquicentennial was free admission to all national parks. But for our semiquincentennial we're getting a cage match that's only available on a streaming service that requires a subscription.

Hey BikeSky, thoughts on waxed chains? I need to replace the chain on my cyclocross bike and I have an old instant pot and am intrigued based on what I've read

Mandatory!

People are soooooo mad in the quotes and replies

Yet again Yazzy hid from my parents, until my mom presented her with a pot of cat grass. Now she thinks they’re okay actually

Super Craig's most zen place is sun bathing on his yoga block.

I feel like being able to run into Abdul El-Sayed at Hopcat and think he's a normal guy and not realize he's in politics is a good way to measure his humanity.

The wind and rain are really slapping the side of the house, wow

white-only refugees accepted into the united states for 6th month in a row.

printers nowadays be like: for $20/mo you can print 30 pages, but no more than 4 pages at a time and no words that start with the letter “f.” the $30/mo you can print up to 8 pages at a time and words that start with all letters, but proper nouns are an additional $5

If anybody misplaced their mattress, it’s at the West 8 Mile location of Hot Wheel City.

I unfortunately have been feeling “I’ll believe it when I see it” about it opening on time. I’m sure the evil billionaire Moroun family is pulling out all the stops to get Tr*mp to stop this. Every single day they delay the opening is more toll money for them.

EXCUSE ME?!?!?

Well Bluesky, we had a lot of laughs tonight, but remember: there's nothing funny about a snake trying to play with a Skip-It

Since I’m thinking about Euclid Montessori tonight, I want to share this short obituary for my teacher there, Everlouis DeBaun. A few years ago I thought to look her up because I figured she was the only person with that name. I found out she was a total badass www.newspapers.com/article/st-l...

Unsurprising but shitty news: My 4th and 5th grade school, Euclid Montessori, is doing to be demolished. It’s one of the oldest school buildings in the entire city. It took a direct hit from last year’s EF-3 tornado and lost a lot of its roof. I wish they could’ve mothballed it or sold it. Man.

I caught up with an Iranian American friend the other night. I asked how her family is doing and she told me which of her relatives are in Tehran, and that her mom here in the Midwest has a panic attic every time they call
