“Which is why we are posthumously indicting Paul Revere.”

@steveshives.bsky.social releases this banger as an update every year, and it's fascinating every time.

As we go from fall into winter in northern US... Your car doesn't NEED to warm up for 30 minutes in the morning. Get in, start the car, drive gently for the first mile, and you'll have a warm car. This isn't the 1980s with carburators.

As we go from fall into winter in northern US... Leaf blowers are the ultimate "F U" tool. Aside from the noise, they just push YOUR problem into someone else's place. Even the in street they just block drains or the up in someone else's yard again.

Low tire today? If you're in an area that's seeing cold weather for the first time in a while, this is a reminder that your "low tire pressure" warning is likely a false alarm. Cold weather shrinks air (PV=nRT for you), so drive carefully and add air when you can.

Hey, cat-friendly peeps in the Eugene or Portland OR areas: I have a friend moving from Springfield to Portland who has 6 cats, & needs to rehome 4 of them. 😟 If you can help with kitty adoption, pls DM me. Or reshare this with othes who could maybe help. They're sweet older cats who need love.

Happy "Ada Lovelace Day." Celebrating women in STEM, it was named after the women widely regarded as the first computer programmer, working with Charles Babbage on his "Analytic Engine." findingada.com

So, wait. The President and NOT Nancy Pelosi is the one who can call the National Guard into DC? Has he gained a new power since January 6? www.cnn.com/2025/08/06/p...

This came into my email inbox about an hour ago and got a good laugh-cry.

The Times has out-absurded the Onion

Don’t tell Metallica we posted this.

@diannalgunn.bsky.social Oh, no! Now what!? I just bought the Canadian Sci-Fi/Fantasy pack a couple of weeks ago from them!

Unfunded mandate to "move money around" for school lunches. That's not how this works. "We need less administrators and more of the taxpayer dollars going to kids directly." I believe the word is "fewer." kfor.com/news/local/w...

Watching "Star Trek 6: The Undiscovered Country" and NEVER get tired of that dining room scene. Obviously, Christopher Plummer is on fire, but everything about this scene is awesome.

is it banana tell me it's banana

Excited for all the new American banana and coffee factories.

In 2016, I worried that the US would soon be destroyed. So for the next eight years, I took my kids everywhere I could so they'd know their country firsthand. We drove in every direction to see things from all sides. Our story is a book, and I hope you'll preorder: www.thelastamericanroadtrip.com

I really can't tell if this whole security failure is the best or worst advertisement for Signal in a while.

I'm queer, disabled and in an unsafe housing situation I don't have any income I need at least $300 to survive the month. I need to restock essentials like dog food Any help is welcome. Please share #HelpFolksLive2025 #FeedPeople #MutualAidRequest #DisabilityCrowdFund paypal.me/crippledscho...

Hitting a critical too many needs wall. Abscess flared up real bad again & my whole mouth is potentially fatal. Need a car to do anything. Dont have a bed & theyre expensive. Need safety plan funds to potentially save ourselves, our moms, siblings & niblets, & a friend. Need it all Right Now. 😱

The YouTube channel "CinemaStix" does great deep-dives into film analysis. This peek at Chaplin's "The Great Dictator" is really something else. youtu.be/7HSIWfPTSMM?...

Ladies and gentlemen... the weekend. (also: you are important and are not alone 🧡)

Biden admin secured the release

The Red Scare was a witch hunt and not the least about Communism. The trans panic is a witch hunt and not the least about girl’s sports. Both were set in motion to consolidate power. jesspiper.substack.com/p/witch-tria...

You should all go buy these books so that I can afford to pay an editor to work on the book I just finished 😂😂😂

Check out my wares! Hoping for a few sales tonight so I can cover some printing costs tomorrow (resumes, flyers for a protest, around 25 needed) Every share could land me on the TL of new eyes seeking artsy goods! ovaettr.gay/shop #bsnm #NightMarket

@randomfacts.bsky.social Ha!

Plan-B: pick up a couple cheap and give to your kids - boy or girl, esp if at college. Have it at-the-ready; they may not need it, but will know someone who will. Amazon, Costco*, etc. (* Most Costco pharmacies let you buy without a membership.)

Don’t normally do this, but this is a friend and a fellow Trekkie who is needing help recovering the security deposit she lost due to an unexpected bill. She’s been living with a roomie who’s very abusive for about 5 months now, and she’s found a new place. She just just needs help recovering

It's 2024. You don't have to preheat your car for 30 minutes to run to Dunkin in the morning. Get in, start car, drive gently for first few miles. Done. With very few exceptions, your car hasn't "needed to warm up first" since 1990.

Hot take. Leaf blowers are the ultimate "f*CK you" tool. Their main purpose (according to my neighbors) is to push debris into someone else's yard, or into the street where they can block storm drains or cause catalytic converter fires.

Hey, new followers! For the last few months, I’ve been sending out a weekly message through the Quaker website @friendsjournal.org — this week’s was about the threat of Christian nationalism (which means that it was very much inspired by @swordsjew.bsky.social and her newest book, Wild Faith).

I don't expect a "follow back" from anyone, and I'm ok with that. While I might find YOUR content interesting, you might not have any desire to pollute your timeline with MY drivel.
