Whoever is stabbing that doll of me, please stop?

We really should take back physical fitness, patriotism and masculinity from them. They’ve utterly bungled their stewardship of these concepts.

take them home, physicists

It’s a new year where I woke up, but not yet where I’m about to land.

No, it’s a curling wave like Pipeline, and it’s a common misconception that tsunamis look like that. They’re called tidal waves because they come in like the tide (and then don’t stop).

Extremely civilized of them to bring me a little dish (for the used teabag) with my cup of tea.

A 1966 Buick hardtop coupe has about the same headroom & legroom as a 2015 Honda Fit. I won't get into the other ways the car or the nonsense around it fails to measure up, I just wanted to point out how incredibly space-inefficient these things were

DC Statehood needs to be a Day 1 priority, the one place the Guard aren't being withdrawn is where there is no federalism to protect citizens from presidential overreach. This can never happen again.

It’s bumpy over New Brunswick tonight

Since rural America has gotten populated by grumpy old conservatives they expect public resources to exist fee and tax-free. This is never how public resources work and it’s the reason rural America has them increasingly in short supply.

Shutting down childcare, or making it prohibitively expensive, across the entire country seems like a really bad strategy if you need to win elections.

A final thot on NY Nativisim before I go off to get ready to celebrate NYE in a city I apparently dont belong in bc I, like a majority of its residents, had the audacity to be born somewhere else: in any other context, those sorts of ppl would be easily recognized for the townie losers that they are

OK, only good vibes for the rest of the year.

I just sniped a kid in Overwatch and he wrote "ohhh Kirked me" and I just found out they're using that as shorthand for a good snipe HOLY SHIT LOL

Merry New Year! Beefy Jerky Time!

I'm just cracking up. Reducing car dependency isn't a war in rural America. That's one of the dumbest takes I've seen this year. Congestion pricing reduces freedom of movement? Try going to Dallas without hitting a toll road or spending an extra hour already.

People in rural areas reacting to "let's make cars less necessary in highly populated areas" with "this is a declaration of war on rural America" certainly isn't lowering the temperature.

I'm so damn sick of rural America refusing to understand anything that isn't 20 feet from their front door.

This is why we need DC statehood, now.

Lot on Biden but also lot on Pelosi/Schumer. If they stayed and did the impeach/remove votes immediately after the cert vote on 1/6-1/7 they would have had the 2/3rds to remove him and prevent him from running too.

John Roberts needs to go to jail too, at least,

With all the details that are coming out now about J6 and Epstein. Just wow. Biden would've looked like the Man Who Saved The American Experiment

Can you imagine if Biden had done his job and protected the country from what's happening now? They'd add him to Mt Rushmore. Literally would have saved the country. We don't even know how this all ends! It's crazy. But we wouldn't even have to worry about it if Joe had done his job as President

Ah yes, the voters who all terrified of cities, non-white people, and they keep voting for fascism. You’re lucky people aren’t calling for re-education camps.

'The "rules for safe handling of weapons", say accidents are generally caused by "faulty or careless handling of weapons and ammunition". A Labour source said: "faulty or careless handling" in the guidance probably best describes her tenure as Tory leader.' www.mirror.co.uk/news/politic...

Needless to say a) you should never point a firearm at anyone you don't intend to shoot and b) you should never pose for a press photo without at least asking "Am I holding this right, so I don't look like a complete twit?" c) Don't be Kemi Badenoch

I very rarely bother with IFE on long-haul flights, but both times I’ve tried this year, the headsets either didn’t work or had a high-pitched noise whine that was too annoying to put up with. Good thing I have a laptop and eight seasons of Psych.

Hint, About Grok: Show it my 150 'burned alive in a Tesla' spreadsheet Then ask: 'Grok, read these 150 documented cases and then tell me how many people burned alive inside a Tesla' ;) (It won't. No matter how hard you try, Grok won't read it. It's programmed not to) bsky.app/profile/tona...

Completely destroying your career by being too racist to pay income taxes is really funny.

The de-icing area at LHR is called Jedi.

so much of our housing pathologies stem from these automatic associations people have like 'renting ~ inferior' and 'having a family ~ owning a home'

Another plane had an emergency landing so we’re still on the ground, an hour after our scheduled takeoff.

Someone should ask Loren Grush if they stand by that quote.

When is Steve Buschemi taking power?

Malenkov is dead. Again

2/ Overall, 40% of Americans say they didn't read any books in 2025. Most of the rest read just a handful. Then there's a small minority of really heavy readers (more on them shortly!):

The trouble is, the idiot retail investors propping the stock up are utterly immune to hearing about things like profit margins and market share and product pipeline and reliability and EV incentives and carbon credits. So, just all the things that actually should drive a stock price.

Here are the 10 best things we drove this year @arstechnica.com arstechnica.com/cars/2025/12...

I wish I could code, so I could write a Bsky labeler that warns when some post is about a research finding “in mice.”

Aww, bitch blocked me before I could block her.

Let's talk about the history of champagne bottles, the myth of Dom Pérignon & how England invented modern champagne. Dom Pierre Pérignon was a French Benedictine monk (1638-1715) who influenced French viticulture. And, ironically for someone associated with it, he tried to PREVENT champagne.

Jesus, imagine you’re at a bar and these too come up and say “we like your vibe”

Other things Rhiannon finds too extreme: primary colors, lukewarm water, rye bread

What is this nonsense, NPR? Are you saying people should have relationships with partners whose views they consider reprehensible?

why would you reply? clearly this post is not for your old ass

Yo! MTV Raps was was obviously my favorite show, but in terms of the best single music video, got to be this one: youtu.be/OJWJE0x7T4Q?...

Complaining about rigged elections while rigging even this vote is pretty shameless

Very hard to disagree with anything @dreharrison.bsky.social writes here. If a male driver had to do three years in F4, no one would ever expect him to make it to F1. www.motorsport101.com/does-the-f1-...

The amazing thing—to me at least—is how most of them are people of color. Like, you get the white boys you work with will throw you in the camps too, right? Then again if they weren’t morons they wouldn’t have joined ICE.
