Amazing Bears comeback last night and now football all evening today. What would be a perfect beer for lounging and for giving me another little piece of home? @offcolorbrewing.bsky.social #craftbeer #bskbeer

More lyrics from the guy who did the theme song for the Franklin cartoon. Padded with power here they come International loan sharks backed by the guns Of market hungry military profiteers Whose word is a swamp and whose brow is smeared With the blood of the poor

@msu-athletics.bsky.social Jerry Sandusky wasn’t available? With all of the recent history from Nassar to Tucker, you should have been looking for someone with a pristine track record on abuse. Shame on you.

The in laws and rest of the extended family are gone and I'll have 6-10 inches of snow to clear tomorrow. I'll be sipping this one over the next five hours. I love vanilla stouts, but the ABV on this one urges extreme caution. #BskyBeer #Stouterday

My wife was flipping through the channels last night and when she got to HBO Latino, 50 First Dates was on. Sean Astin's character still had the lisp in Spanish.

Abject horror for someone my age. The pea falls off the fork and rolls to the the farthest corner under the desk.

This little thing on the most-recent iPad software update is making many apps partially unusable, including this one. Those three worthless dots cover up the back button. Anyone have a fix?

@chicagobearsnews.bsky.social fans expect this.

The difference between the Democrats and the Republicans is one party wants to cut the homeless population in half and the other wants to cut the homeless population in half. (Stolen)

Might have to move out of Michigan. apnews.com/article/gene...

Rural Michigan in October. Come for the leaves. Leave because it smells like cow shit and pig shit.

Mmm hmm. www.youtube.com/watch?v=wo87...

@apnews.com is now blocking my ad blockers. An article that has an ad every thee or four sentences is almost unreadable. Blocking the ad blocker makes AP's site about as readable as it was before I started using an ad blocker.

@stephenking.bsky.social Congratulations. apnews.com/article/step...

When discussions come up on immigration, gay and transgender rights, militaristic police tactics, and etc., I'm finding the phrase "Oh, just like the Nazis did" strangely changes the tone of the conversation.

Now that the House has the votes to release the Epstein files, I finally feel safe releasing the Administration’s redacted list of people named in the files.

Does anyone have a picture of the Charlie Kirk memorial that has a non-white person in it?

Yeah, but only on weekends. arstechnica.com/science/2025...

Going through my collectibles and I think this is my favorite. Inaugural Bulls game at the United Center. One of the best seats in the house - court side just to the right of the center line. Continental Bank’s seats. I can see my dad in the videos of the game. #chicagobulls

Oh the irony of this photo that is currently on the front page of @apnews.com

Is it company policy for GM service departments to tell customers that the wipers need be replaced no matter the condition of the wipers? Apparently, wipers can get worn out in two days. I am now personally replacing the wipers the morning of scheduled repairs to test this premise.

Oh my god. This is ridiculous and outrageous. Amazing beer. #craftbeer

So Much Good Stuff On Tap Thundertaker Express. Holy crap. Good stuff. #bskybeer #craftbeer

This weekend’s beer is another Dark Lord Variant. Sounds great, but hoping the peppercorn is either faint or not there. #craftbeer #bskybeer

One hundred years ago, a 23-year-old postdoc named Werner Heisenberg completed a calculation that would become the heart of quantum mechanics, a radical yet stunningly accurate theory of the atomic and subatomic world. www.quantamagazine.org/its-a-mess-a...

My current, and very effective, conversation stopper: "Before we continue, did you develop this opinion by listening to the consensus of the top experts on the subject around the globe or did you develop it after watching something masquerading as news?'

I’ll turn off my adblocker when you stop putting unstoppable video ads between every sentence.

Guess the product. This is in the "About this item" section for the product at Walmart.

This weekend's beer is a 2025 Egregious Philbin Dark Lord Variant. Cherries and vanilla. Pulled it out of the cellar a couple of hours ago and it's room temperature. One of the better variants, but it's a bomber so I'll be sipping for the next five hours. 800+ calories. Oy. #craftbeer #beersky

This weekend’s choice is a 2022 Ruckley from Transient. Warming it up. Weather is too muggy and the storm blew the mosquitoes in so it’s gaming instead of putting my feet up on the deck. #craftbeer #beersky #wutang

It's OK to call Gawker a shit rag AND call Hulk Hogan a racist dickhead. This is not a pick one side thing.

Vengeance . . . VENGEAAANCE . . . If you know, you know. Rest in peace and thanks for the fun. #gaming #pcgaming

Strange. Perfect 73 degree evening. Not a cloud in the sky. Very light breeze. I live by the woods. Zero birds. I'm usually up to a dozen in ten minutes. #birding #merlin

Detailed three cars today. My old, tired ass deserves this, but it has to warm up first. 2024 Buckley Reserve #2 from Transient. #craftbeer #beersky

Forget the Epstein files, I have the videos. www.youtube.com/watch?v=CZsk...

When the dams burst in central Michigan five years ago, warnings were coming in constantly. There were zero fatalities.

This weekend’s beer is a 2022 Transient F - - - imperial cream stout with chocolate, vanilla, and uh, cookies. Very good. #craftbeer #beersky

Finally a nice evening in Michigan. Enjoying the weather with a 2024 Buckley Reserve #2 from the fine folks at Transient. This is one of my top five beers in current production. Spent all day working around the house. I'm in pain and I deserve a good beer.

Remember the CDOs, CMOs, CMBS, ABS and other private-label securities that helped blow up many banks in 2008-2010? The stuff so many banks are gobbling up right now with their excess liquidity is much worse, and most of the banks don't have a clue. Again. #banking #bonds #economy #investments

A month ago, I could see the river.

It's so stupid that I have to ask this. Is anyone aware of places in Windsor, Ontario where I can take my US family to get Covid boosters this fall? Are there regulations for US citizens getting vaccinated there?

Read the bullet points. When people scream that the shit that is happening is scary, it’s not hyperbolic. www.archives.gov/founding-doc...

Long, stressful week. Possibly the last bottle ever of one of my top five favorite beers of all time. Going to savor this bomber for the next few hours. #craftbeer #drinkcheck #beersky

Hmmph. Glad I went to bed last night because the hockey game was over early. Dammit.

For those who follow economics releases, the NFIB Small Business Outlook General Business Conditions component has been one of the best contrary indicators for the past 40 years. It averaged -2.6 under Clinton. It averaged 15.1 under Bush 2.

@robdenbleyker.com JFC.

Trump wants Powell (as if it’s Powell’s decision alone) to cut rates. Stopping immigration and throwing people out of the country only reduces the denominator for the unemployment rate. If that rate doesn’t fall and inflation remains higher than desired, there’s no impetus to cut rates.

Just a little political side note to end the week: The number of Democratic Presidents to see an increase in the unemployment rate since tracking began in 1929 is exactly zero. The number of Republican Presidents to NOT see an increase in the unemployment rate in that same period is exactly one.
