“Let them go a month without meals. Maybe they will get a job” First, many SNAP recipients have jobs. They’re just living below the poverty line because of tremendous wealth inequality. Second, many are disabled and children and can’t work. Third, no one should starve to death.

Misty Copeland took her final bow as an American Ballet Theatre principal dancer on Wednesday, a role she's had for the past 10 years.

Unrelated to other things, @triscribe.bsky.social freaking rocks, and did me a real solid this week, and I hope they feel better soon.

Julie called to let me know she'd be sending me some paperwork I need. had a polite, amicable conversation about her maybe shipping me some stuff I'd had to leave in Florida. Friendly, even. And now I really need a drink.

I appreciate this McDonalds. They have sold me so many Egg McMuffins.

I'm the best there is at what I do, but what I do is conjugate heat transfer using computation fluid dynamics, and no sane person knows what the fuck that is.

Went to church this morning, at the Unitarian Universalist church near my home. First time in my life I've gone to church because I chose to, not because I was going with someone else in my life. Very friendly community, very welcoming.

Gonna miss the gateway arch. Because it was fun to explain to people in my party why it had been important back in the 90s.

It signs well, does it not?

March on, my fellows!

Went to the Round Rock, TX "No Kings" event. Someone gave me a US flag, and it felt great to wave it about surrounded by a couple thousand people putting out positive, patriotic, pro-democracy vibes.

Head to a protest today. I can almost promise you will feel less hopeless. That's exactly what they don't want. There are more of us than there are of them.

I like my country the same way I like my whiskey. no ice.

I wanna watch Timestream Defenders Orion.

I suspect the MAGA government decided to launch all these Bluesky accounts tonight to try to bait people in advance of No Kings. These people have incurable 4chan brain and this is how they operate. Block them. Do not engage. Do not give them what they want.

i don’t normally endorse block lists (i’m on some, weirdly lumped in with people i myself have blocked) but i don’t see how blocking all these accts with one button is bad. most importantly, DO NOT ENGAGE WITH THEM. they already own X so they wouldn’t be here if they weren’t trying to start shit.

Remember our mantra: Don't Engage, Just Block.

There is no Ratshag. Only Zuul.

1) 45 minutes of mandatory training videos, where an AI-generated woman yammers an unending barrage of this year’s jargon salad for sales executives. 2) randomly pick answers in the quiz at the end. Write down the correct answers 3) re-take the quiz, score 100% Such a great use of my time.

Post you from another era. Me with two of the Stanford Dollies, freshman year of college (1986). The one on the left is my friend Vicky. This was at the Stanford - UT football game. Was visiting my friend Liren, who was insanely jealous that I knew actual, real-life cheerleaders.

If you’ve been with us awhile, you’ll know all about ‘hose wars’ — our Kaluku herd’s highly competitive and never-ending quest to possess the hosepipe. (There’s plenty of fresh water for everyone, but the orphans seem to enjoy the clout of drinking directly from the hose!)

I will vote for whichever politician gets a law on the books saying there can only be three (3) newses per day. this quantity of news is not good for me.

My boss: so how's our fourth quarter looking? Me, the sales manager at the company that makes inflatable frog suits: well, you're never going to believe this, but
