In Orlando for a conference. My hotel room supposedly has a “Florida view”. Behold the beauty of the Sunshine State!

Funny how the only hate I saw at the so-called “Hate America Rally” was from Trump supporters flipping us off. 🤔 #nokings

Reposing to show @jakelupardus.bsky.social my spice rack is small by comparison and has not yet taken the door off its hinges! (Also Mr. Bree’s collection is a thing of beauty)

It was a two Cybertruck drive to work this morning, and I just kept saying "Women don't like the vehicle" to myself. Also instructive when they put a company logo on it, so I know never to do business with that organization (not that I'll ever need to know or care what the hell Truong Capital is)

I needed this 😂

Olathe

I see a lot of people saying Vegas but for me I think it’s Reno? I was only there a few days for a work thing but found nothing redeeming. Also hated San Angelo, TX with a passion as a kid but that could’ve been my family’s fault.

We were recently on an escalator that stopped suddenly. I came pretty close to falling on the guy in front of me which would've been bad. Little did I realize it must have been a conspiracy against us by the Las Vegas airport, only logical explanation.

All of this Kimmel stuff has taught me that Houston has no Sinclair or Nextstar stations (other than the CW which doesn’t even get carried by YouTubeTV). I like that for us.

Has the east coast been raptured yet? Still trying to understand the timing.

lol please come back and pay more for us to cave to fascists!

Once had a new boss cleaning house/firing everyone he didn’t hire. I asked him if I should be worried. He said “short of telling me to go fuck myself there’s nothing you can do to risk your job” When he fired me 2 weeks later one of my biggest regrets is not saying “go fuck yourself” & storming out.

Every time Harrison Butker misses a kick a woman gets admitted to college.

Dutch late night TV has its take

In trying to escape the hellscape for a bit, we'll be in Miami next week for a night pre-cruise. We normally do Cuban, but I discovered we have at least three Michelin-starred restaurants within walking distance of our hotel. Now to figure out which one @jakelupardus.bsky.social will agree to eat!

I think this is the best alt text I’ve ever read

Some Good News, everybody! "Nonprofit environmental organization the Ocean Cleanup has announced that it's on track to eliminate the Great Pacific Garbage Patch by 2034"

This might finally be the thing that would make @jakelupardus.bsky.social a fan of a Houston sports team after living here since 2018.

Was just pondering if Disney+ subscriber counts are public & found this. LOL good timing on this decision as they won't have to admit the extent yesterday's news hurt them. Genuinely curious as to the number of cancellations & how far outside of bsky this reaches. variety.com/2025/tv/news...

I don’t know if I’ve ever been more offended. Damn the man!

You know the brand is strong when even the gotdamn SpaceX coke bricks managed to blow up and crash

Yuuuuup. Also, I don't give a shit if some of the worst people in the world think I am being performative or am virtue signaling. Fuck 'em. They don't get to tell me how to be. Anyway, trans rights are human rights, y'all. It's not complicated.

So how are all my former gifted and talented kids who used to read several books a day and now rot their faculties doomscrolling while ignoring a TV show doing tonight

Controversial opinion, but I think trans people should feel safe here on bluesky, and nazis shouldn't.

One time they were remodeling the old KCI airport and the designer wanted to put artistic arrow designs on the floor tiles but they had to change it because they were worried people would just follow the arrows to nowhere. Dunno why I’m reminded of this, just that people are really stupid I guess.

Age verification I had to unplug the fax line to plug in the modem

This one is for the #chiefsties

Missed opportunity for Houston to be dubbed "Space City" all of a sudden based solely on the president's whim & no historical precendent.

This "not...anti-trans" person sure does say a lot of shit that is anti-trans. I still can't figure out what these morons think happens in women's restrooms. There are priviate stalls, we go in them and pee. We might have to (gasp) share a sink! We should all be allowed to do this in peace.

22 years ago we got engaged in front of the Bellagio fountains, so I figured it’d be a good place to celebrate a slightly belated 21st anniversary. Love you @jakelupardus.bsky.social

I know that shrieking and wringing one's hands every hour on the hour isn't going to accomplish anything, but every now and then it kicks in for me that the president of the United States is a maniac, and, to be honest, it's bothersome.

Uber driver “one thing I learned from Joe Rogan…” Me: immediately tunes out knowing nothing good can possibly come next.

This is a masterpiece. Simply excellent www.instagram.com/reel/DMVGMIC...

i am so sick of hearing about people who are uncomfortable about trans people in public bathrooms as if you have some right to total peace of mind in the place you can hear strangers having diarrhea

Discussing with people at this conference what my company does: Are you familiar with Travis & Jason Kelce and their podcast? Last week they talked about one of our clubs. This week they had Taylor Swift. Basically the same.

Random guy at this conference joined me and my friend for dinner. Just announced “wine reminds me of church so I don’t drink wine” 🤣

At a software conference. Every single item on their future roadmap is AI-related. What could possibly go wrong?

I unsubscribed from Crooked's newsletter when they announced their move to substack. Today I got their stubstack newsletter, & had to go re-unsubscribe to whatever the fuck they auto-subscribed me to after I unsubscribed. Join the Nazi site & force people to receive shit they don't want, great move.

My fellow Icelanders are still adding to this thread, so I recommend you read the comments. They are pretty hilarious.

Tell me why the one on the left is just a normal sized coffee cup?

This just gets funnier the more I look at it.

500 billion dollars and the robot can't even count to twelve

My favorite gag from the new Naked Gun movie was when they renamed crypto .com arena to ponzi-scheme.com arena.

Lenexa? You love to see it.

“She can’t speak French” 🤣 Always read (and provide) the alt text folks!

I don’t know how good I’d be but lately decided my dream job is product development for Trader Joe’s.

See also: Colin Allred and his attempt to lose a bunch of money in another failed senate race. Maybe someday a dem can win statewide in TX again, but throwing trans people under the bus can't be the way to get there.
