@brianmc.bsky.social Today’s episode of TeachBrew Ride Home made me think AI coding jobs are starting to sound like K-12 teaching jobs. Multitasking every moment leading to mental fatigue & eventual burnout.

I love this.

Happy July 4th! I happily celebrate this holiday not because of the nation born on this day, but because of the ideals expressed in the document which birthed it. Those ideals form the core of my moral creed. It’s the sacred text of my civil religion, which believes:

to whatever marvelous person posted this, you are a shining star

More of those to come

When everyone wants dinner.

I don’t mean to brag, but just want you to know how rich I am. 🤑

Staying warm in Texas

Calvin says “Haaaaaapy New Year” Juliet is still recovering from partying last night.

Happy 2025 to you and yours 😁 🥂 🎆 💙

I got a faux fur blanket at a white elephant exchange yesterday and today I’m walking around the house like I’m Stockard Channing at the start of First Wives Club (minus the booze and depression)

So let’s talk about a young man named Luigi. Mid-twenties, he is enraged by the callousness of those who are hoarding resources at the expense of the masses. So he decides to make a powerful public statement and assassinate a prominent figure. +

This is my energy going into the holiday season.

As a historian this is hilarious.

A college friend asked me to drive him 1.5hrs to the nearest gay bar to celebrate turning in a project. It was my first time in a gay bar. Met him on the dancefloor and we kept seeing each other weekly while I finished my degree. 22yrs later we’re still dancing 💃 🪩

I’m not sure what message she was trying to send, but Miss Juliet definitely wanted me to do something.

Our turn to see #Wicked

Have spent the day reconnecting with family I haven’t seen in too long, eating heaps of good food, and being the Fun G’Uncle hanging with the nephews & nieces.

I hope nobody has a lactose sensitivity at Friendsgiving tomorrow. On the other hand, this might MAKE them lactose intolerant.

Gonna drown my angst in a deeper well tonight!

It’s tiiiiiime! My family had a whole set of these and they were my favorite Christmas decor because mom actually let me play with them.

It’s a lot of people’s first FCF on here, remember to adjust your nsfw filers accordingly.

so we moved to bluesky

Came across a quote that says ‘Storms make trees take deeper roots.’ Sounds like Dolly. Glad my roots are digging deeper here with all you happy horny people. 🌈🦄🏳️‍🌈

Hi everyone. The Onion, with the help of the Sandy Hook families, has purchased InfoWars. We are planning on making it a very funny, very stupid website. We have retained the services of some Onion and Clickhole Hall of Famers to pull this off. I can't wait to show you what we have cooked up.

Heard a student say the phrase “most smartest” in class today. My brain replayed this entire scene for me.

I haven’t started decorating for the holidays yet, but we did pick up this new addition to Christmas tree:

Today my Bluesky experience has hit critical mass. The combo of following enough accounts that I’m interested in and their frequency of posts have hit juuuust right. If it stays like this every day for a week, that’ll be a good sign.

When an average 11th grader correctly uses the term “autodidact” in an essay, pretty safe bet there’s been some generative AI assistance. 🤣

This is the way, it has been foretold.

Hi, my name is Goldilocks can you help me find The Just Right Media Diet? I don’t have the bandwidth to do a daily news morning podcast like NPR’s Up First. Ideally I’m looking for a weekly show/podcast that does a rundown or catchup of that week’s main stories. Any suggestions?

Cis men truly need to understand the power of saying “that’s fucked up bro why would you say that” to another cis man

There I was, minding my own business sitting on the couch with thoughts spiraling into worry, the sound of a cat yawn snapped me back to reality. Good boy Calvin.

@deannaraybourn.bsky.social John & I are 20min into watching the first episode of REN Faire on HBO. It’s crazy bonkers, you’ll love it!

Just sitting here crying while listening to Tracy Chapman sing Fast Car on the Grammys. W.o.w.

It’s the annual Talk To Your Neighbors night.

I’m not comfortable with the number of life insurance products being advertised during this rerun of Buffy the Vampire Slayer.

Season two finale of wheel of Time is tonight? As is tradition, I’m reading all the published books* before it comes out so I’m caught up. *Watching the whole season staring from Episode 1

There I am, minding my own business working in the computer room. John, listening to Bette Midler’s Wind Beneath My Wings in the living room: “OW!”

Wheel of Time Ep1 - Introducing Verin and having her say the line “I know.” later that same episode 🫡🥳🤩 I see what happened there, bravo! Couldn’t look away when Meera Syal was on screen, can’t wait to see what else she brings to this beloved character.

I’m very happy with Ep 1 of Wheel of Time season 2. The core elements of these characters are plain to see, even with the adaptations necessary for television. That was more often not the case with season 1.

If I want to reheat my pizza from last night, does anyone know how long I have to leave it in direct sunlight until it’s ready? 🥵☀️🫠

Edith loves being on the couch with us

Welp, here I am sitting in a 4-hour zoom virtual PD session. Goodbye Summer 2023, one of the most restorative and refreshing summers I’ve had in the past decade. Time to start waking up before the sun and teaching these children.
