Saturday brunch #birds

This is amazing - @kevinolearytv 🤡 is fearmongering about Chinese agents opposing his giant Utah data center… but it’s 2 young local girls in Utah who hilariously call him (and his “dumbass hat”) out👇🏽 Full: www.instagram.com/reel/DYU074V...

I'm updating a presentation I have given several times and came across this note in it. I have said this every time I have had the chance to say it and I now get to update this section with HERE IS A STELLAR EXAMPLE OF HOW NOT DOING THIS COST PEOPLE THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS.

Any baseball fans who like helping charity out there? @alycatphotos.bsky.social – the lady who donates her talents to the Bull City Foodraiser each year – is doing a Chicago Marathon fundraiser for the American Cancer Society 😄 Lots of baseball stuff! ⚾️🧢 Details: www.facebook.com/share/1DtNNi...

"Right now there is someone parking a Cybertruck on your street, believing that leaving his divorce where everyone can see it is somehow impressive." another banger from @monteiro.bsky.social and if you need a crocus of hope, go read this

Holy shit, I have NEVER been more excited for a movie.

The Trump regime's attacks on Pope Leo backfire spectacularly They're expose the broken, cult-like nature of Trumpism. www.publicnotice.co/p/trump-pope...

Amazing. Also, books are the elves.

I am being trolled by my hummingbird feeder. #birds

We now interrupt your daily doomscrolling with MOON PICTURES images.nasa.gov

this is one of the most persuasive pieces i've ever read.

If anyone is in Portland, ME tomorrow, 3/31 at 7pm @printbookstore.bsky.social is hosting Woody Hanstein’s latest mystery thriller, The Harbormaster’s Wife. Woody is a former defense attorney and current Harbormaster, so he knows what he’s writing about. You can order a copy at littoralbooks.com

Certainly not the biggest problem in the world, but indicates someone doesn’t put thought into their user experience.

“Sir, you are in the wrong line.” #birds

I wrote about Kat.

Let’s goooooooooo…. #goduke

What is this nonsense? I am sitting in the arena watching this game and it is halfway through the first half!!!

Many things are awful in the world right now, but there are many other things at the other end of the scale to help us deal, and this remains one of them.

I’d prefer cake.

I got a letter. Best guess is that my last name on voter registration (O'Keefe) doesn't match DMV records (OKeefe). Why? DMV didn't allow apostrophes when I got my driver's license <mumble> years ago. How the voter registration (from DMV data) added the apostrophe is a mystery for another day.

This is a long thread but you should read it. In related news, judges *must* start holding AUSAs in contempt (and then locking them up) if we want this to stop without more bloodshed.

Need a mood boost? Watch the Pacific Northwest Ballet celebrate the Seattle Seahawks being in the Super Bowl

GM: Charisma check. Mamdani: [rolls natural 20] GM: that’s a d6 how did you Mamdani: [direct to camera] Did you know you can check out board games at your local public library? 😊

Banging the same gong as everyone else about the need to support independent media & locally owned publications, but: For the love of god, please support us!! If not the @indyweek.bsky.social, support wherever you get your news from. Being owned only by the powerful does not work.

If you're a learning professional struggling with content at scale, today's webinar might be of interest: us06web.zoom.us/webinar/regi... PS Talking about work on this platform feels weird.

If you're a nail polish person, the MN-based small polish maker Atomic Polish is selling Ice Out, and 100% of the proceeds of it are going to the Immigrant Rapid Response Fund

I wonder if I’ll ever stop being angry all of the time.

imagine being such a despicable person that 50,000 people from one of the politest states in the nation showed up in below zero weather to tell you to go fuck yourself

On the rare occasion that I remember a dream, it's usually a travel freakout. This time, I was negotiating with the Stuttgart Airport Mövenpick front desk because I checked out but forgot my carry-on in the room. Also, I couldn't remember the room number and they wouldn't let me back in without it.

Just got a reasonably convincing scam call from someone purporting to be with the Durham County Sheriff's Office, alleging I missed federal jury duty and a bench warrant had been issued for my arrest Guy had me almost worried for a solid 2-3 minutes They even did up a fake warrant to text me!

This is really lovely

Wait. The Hunger Games thing isn't satire?!

This is a truly remarkable moment. Simultaneously debunking Kristi Noem’s lie in real-time and elevating the story of a veteran who was deported under Trump & Noem’s dehumanizing, belligerent deportation policy.

COASTAL CHAOS FOREVER!!

For a modest fee, I will fill your seat at your family's Thanksgiving table and answer to your name.

Reading the news this morning. Please pass the eye bleach.

A fundraiser to feed kids in Durham over the holidays. Such a great campaign! (And so depressing that it’s needed more than ever)

Wonderful game!

This is amazing!!

I just saw someone use the abbreviation “AI;DR” and I’ll be laughing for a while.

Pope Leo says pro-life people are hypocrites abc7news.com/post/pope-le...

This is very sad for us, but we need to find a new home for Dug because he is struggling in a house with small kids. If you want a smart, lovable hound who enjoys nose work and nose hugs, please let me know. home-home.org/pets/ae50a2b...

Shout out to everyone only now learning that "Albert Einstein was reclusive at the end of his career, shunning public engagements." Really meant, "For the last *20 years* of his career, Einstein opposed US racism by only speaking publicly at Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs).

“All available Trumpets”

I miss my Washington Post subscription. Actually, I miss the subscription to the Washington Post that was. Today's paper is a totally different thing. They are offering a year for $20 (instead of $120), and then I look at their editorials, and BIG NOPE. Not a penny from me.
