I was about to make a post implying that the more leftists post about Newsom on here the more free publicity they give him, but I realized that would be incorrect, because no post made on here actually matters or changes anything in the slightest. It's just an anxiety disorder playground. Carry on!

We can actually call it whatever the fuck we want. Also you're welcome to try walking on the sidewalks in NE and claim it's not like concrete.

Same as it ever was. The only action DCRA ever took was if someone reported something to their CM. DCRA did however have an annual prize for worst agency, an achievement rarely bested.

Chuckle. Catching up this morning seeing an influencer trying to get tickets to the hottest gay event of the year in Stockholm last night and then seeing my definitely not influencer friends there.

Ma'am if you still have followers who you think might be on board with the current policy era that's on you. You need to accept you're either preaching to the choir (and this sermon isn't having the effect you think) or have chosen to keep that around.

The brain rot that is "no one should have smartphones" "sent from my iPhone". Babe you first.

Just got a ticket for a computer problem at work. Ticket says "computer has lost trust". Me too, buddy. Me too.

Best not to share the mental image I have of all the trash piled up everywhere.

Finally started reading The Demon of Unrest and Erik Larson opens with a witness of J6 and I had to speed read past that.

Learning that the fix for every worn collar is just taking it off, flipping it over and sewing it back on feels like cheating. But I do prefer mending shirts to fabric construction because I don't have the skill.

I should probably care about KenCen but I can't bring myself to do it, I'm all out of cortisol. Go forth.

Transit is awesome because WMATA and DDOT, in cooperation with the most demonic federal agency in DC, really said fuck you outloud to everyone at Franklin Sq.

The caste system is ever in view. Cars & bikes have special rights. We're all walking in the roads and bike lanes because fuck you that's why. We paid for them, why shouldn't we.

"delete Jira tickets" Didn't need to label it San Francisco.

I have a lot of complaints about my job but at least we're open and I'm getting paid because we don't rely on Congress and the other clownfuckers of America's moronic electorate for our budget.

DC barely does the other things so sure, fine, why not.

Every time I see a grain for porridge that says to use water I always replace it with milk. No reason to suffer without cause I say.

Bravo, @dcpubliclibrary.bsky.social, bravo.

I don't even need a fine tooth comb to tease out exactly what that means. But hey, if you are fine with TikTok you're probably fine with whatever that site will be.

"Malinin’s confidence would be insolent if his acrobatics weren’t so astonishing. 'I broke physics,' he told me recently..." @sallyjenx.bsky.social's first feature for The Atlantic: www.theatlantic.com/magazine/202...

Americans will really use anything but the metric system (complimentary)

SNL is quite good.

Describe your Bluesky account in a single image

My backyard is an ice rink of crete which makes even putting things in the trash a risky move. And forget hauling it into the street for pickup when DC blocked the alleys with snow they dumped.

The fact that the roads are somewhat passable but every bus stop is buried in several feet of snowcrete and WMATA and DC just blame each other is why leaving the house is so hard.

The MAGA supporters showing up for the audience score is so, so funny. This “movie” is objectively bad, folks. There is nothing redeemable.

Watching my partner do Norwegian Duolingo and yes I'm still irritated he didn't try learning Swedish but also Norwegian is so easy so...

You can actually pass budgets for each individual agency, you don't actually have to do it at the department level, or just the department and then just do the skeleton.

It's so great Ol MB has been reincarnated in a new body. Shame it had to be our current mayor.

Saw some at 12th and H NE. I assume that white lady from this week with perverse NG claims doesn't even come this far east to witness it.

Because Janeese would be busy trying to defraud public services.

Our education system has failed.

White lady faux martyrism needs to be studied.

Seriously people, following absolutely horrid people doing foreign influence ops talking points is how you end up on troll lists, people who are obviously acting in bad faith.

I do need to check my lists to see if they've gone astray. Some odd blanks in the posting accounts.

Going to try to leave the neighborhood for the first time in a week. It is still such a mess.

unfun fact: you can basically draw a straight line from this ancient 4chan meme to the fascist takeover of the United States

There's also a thread running through this that bears mentioning. This is very normal in how the modern Russian state tries to propagandize. A nihilism that is also very 1930s coded.

Uh huh

Fully vindicated in his belief that Americans were filthy treatlers who'd accept mass unemployment and a slow recovery over borger getting one dollar more expensive

There's a reason that BHO was the single most gifted politician in a generation -- and part of that was that he knew the truth about The American Voter.

You could drop off some ice melt at our doorsteps because we haven't been able to leave the neighborhood for a week but sure.

The Least Generation has yet again not learned the valuable lesson of not over sharing your sins.

The kids use this phrase a lot, but it means something more actual to those of us born in the early 1980s: She was mother.

I know what this refers to in a way Americans who don't actually know anything about Scandinavian politics don't. Not for nothing the raging xenophobia in Scandinavia is laser focused on "illiterate Somalis doing fraud and honor killings" and has been for a decade plus.

Make it stop.

The biggest difference between the white left and the people they purport to represent has to do with crime. People get rightly mad about criming.
