From WWLTV, this is what S. Claiborne looks like after the water was turned off on 23-FEB-2026. #NOLASky

Boil water advisory for a "portion" of Uptown. With this and the wildfire on the Northshore who is out there still eating King Cake and would you stop?

The King Cake baby returns to their slumber waiting to be awakened next rear to feast again on souls...er, cake.

Apparently #CARINT is a thing, just like #SIGINT (signals intelligence) and extracting data from vehicles to pair with other data for tracking purposes is happening. Good to know that the car is snitching on you just like your phone. www.haaretz.com/israel-news/...

Think twice about those digital photo booths for your next event. Apparently they have sloppy internal controls and can expose what you thought were private, spur of the moment photos to the Internet. www.404media.co/wedding-phot...

Happy #MardiGras to #NOLAsky! Hope you got your tickets and your place to pee!

#kreweOfThoth has fascists riding float 32 with Snoopy. Sidewalk side fascists. I hate sidewalk fascists.

The military doesn’t belong at Mardi Gras

#KrewOfThoth float 14B, sidewalk, upper throwing full unwrapped bags of beads. Hard. At kids and people seated. Not cool for #MardiGras. Be better, #Thoth.

#KreweOfHermed float 29 and the dude in the last position sidewalk side was throwing wrapped bags of beads at people's heads. Happy #MardiGras. At least remove the plastic bag before being a dick. #NOLAsky

Thanks to Kasey Bubnash at @nolanews.bsky.social for including @gmmartygraw.bsky.social and myself in this article on the growth of the Krewe of Chad mentality over the last two decades. It's been a problem we've often addressed. #kreweofchad #Carnival2026 #MardiGras2026 #OurCarnivalHeritage

Shamelessly stolen from Reddit. #MardiGras alignment chart. Also THAC0 wasn't difficult. Fight me.

Local group works to improve conditions for Mardi Gras clean-up workers The New Orleans Worker’s Center for Racial Justice is providing extra food and protective equipment after Mardi Gras clean-up workers claim the city fails to offer adequate support.

#Ring suspends integration with #Flock because "it is too much work" as much as the public backlash following that disastrous Superb Owl commercial with weaponizing missing pets. Ring is not be trusted. Law enforcement can still request videos w/o notification. www.theverge.com/news/878447/...

Irony is members of the #KreweOfBabylon shouting that politics don't belong in #MardiGras when riding floats dedicated to famous operas. The "politics" was an anti-ICE sign that made white men butthurt. LOL.

#TheLensNola🔍 In St. Bernard Parish, fishing deckhands fear death and detention amid regular immigration sweeps - not by ICE, but the Coast Guard. Critics say the Trump administration is undermining the Coast Guard’s other missions... ✍ Delaney Nolan Full Story: buff.ly/c1yZGuQ

Anybody have a feature parity replacement for #Discord? In March Discord will start requiring face ID or uploading government ID for full features. Nope. They have already had multiple data breaches. #Matrix and #Element.io are the best contenders so far. www.bbc.com/news/article...

Hugs and kisses to the butt hurt MAGA guy in #LegionOfMars, float 13, sidewalk side, second from the last who flipped me off in front of a bunch of kids. You sir are a real snowflake! LOL. #MardiGras

#deFlock is a great movement to identify where Flock Automated License Plate Readers (ALPRs or LPRs) are located "for educational purposes". This doesn't count all Amazon #Ring cameras feeding into the Flock database. Learn where your taxes are being spent. deflock.org

The ATT cell phone trees have sprouted early this year.

#Epic games store is running their yearly free game giveaway. New game each day. You can claim through the website. store.epicgames.com/en-US

Does updating a JAVA application while sitting in a boba tea cafe instead of a coffee shop count as cheating? Asking for a friend.

Is it an unwritten requirement for coffee shops to play "Hey there, Delilah" at least once every hour? Am I mot supposed to be paying attention to the background noise?

Do better, #OneDrive. A 23 GB #SharePoint library is only 60% synchronized down after 7 hours. Baldurs Gate 3 is 150 GB and I could have installed that and been 4+ hours into the next playthrough. Be better, #Microsoft.

Anybody know how to adjust their pet(s) for daylight savings? The greyhounds clock is off again this morning.

Looks like #Ring is getting worse and worse. Letting police live stream from devices? Seriously? www.eff.org/deeplinks/20...

New Orleans Oddities & Curiosities Expo 2025 will be July 19, 2025 only this year. Just saw the update posted. "We're so sorry for the disruption and disappointment.∙ If you purchased a Sunday GA ticket, it will now be valid for Saturday." www.showpass.com/new-orleans-...

So, we’re gonna tell our kids we looked at this, shrugged, & carried on as normal?

Stay classy, #Louisiana. bets on how long before these 5 officials are pardoned and put in charge of something in ICE? 5 people charging up to $5k USD to foreign nationals for fake visas since 2015. Absolute trash preying on people. www.kplctv.com/2025/07/16/l...

What's a [not] great idea? Integrate #MicrosoftTeams and #Copilot into the vehicle console so you can use generative AI to record and summarize your meetings...while you are driving. Let's enable the in-car camera so we can see how distracted they are too. media.mercedes-benz.com/article/931e...

Uptown New Orleans this morning.

Lol, #AMD Adrenalin thinks I've been playing the 2014 classic "Alien: Isolation" because Microsoft is bad at naming things. Maybe AMD needs some better machine learning...

How about “no”, #verizon? Automated sales pitch sent after I got off the phone with an agent because #verizon hasn’t correctly applied the original promotional credit from 2022. Multiple calls and chats. The saga continues.

virtualize.sh/blog/ground-... Gee, I wonder which satellite launching company is not playing by the rules. There are so many options.

Gold smoke from the Superdome showing that a new quarterback will be selected. #Saints be praised!

Now that's a headline: USDA withdraws plan to limit salmonella levels in raw poultry "The USDA will not require poultry companies to limit salmonella bacteria in their products" Can we go back to being a reasonable country again? please? www.foxla.com/news/usda-sa...

Waffling from stupid to evil then back. The cruelty is the point with these people. www.latintimes.com/rfk-jr-end-g...

Proposed Louisiana law to prevent roofing contractors from helping owners with claims. I guess it is to prevent the graft like in FL but this feels like something different. lailluminator.com/2025/04/24/r...

Microsoft is bringing back their uber-spyware. Opt-in for now, but how long will that last? arstechnica.com/security/202...

What the actual hell, #Texas? The #F.U.R.R.I.E.S Act to enshrine into law something that was routinely debunked. It also has a very real chance of reviving the #SatanicPanic of the 80s. Watch Texas use this to ban school plays and drama classes too. www.rascal.news/texas-furrie...

Hail Satan, Judge. Sorry, u mean good on you tor illustrating how silly some of the “for the children “ laws are. www.techdirt.com/2025/03/11/j...

I cannot fault anyone for wanting to get out now before it gets worse. www.404media.co/nasa-yale-an...

I feel like the Venn diagram of New Orleans area cyber truck owners and Chaos members is a perfect, white circle

Hell is sitting on the #parade route listening to bad karaoke and a poorly played guitar.

Well that explains the traffic.

This is amazing: Pillsbury has finally given up and started pasteurizing the flour in their raw cookie dough because they know people are going to eat it raw even if they say not to

#KreweofChad Land Grab - NOPD will choose when to enforce Mardi Gras rules more than ever. Too bad NOPD announced this before the first spray paint when down on the grass. www.nola.com/gambit/news/...
