Hi folks, anyone out there? I haven't been online much - we moved and shit! I live in semi-rural New Hampshire now! In a house we own! With our friggin insanely wonderful six-month-old Iris. #parenting

It's my last night in Boston folks! I'm out of here!

Who up?

Hiya friends, who's up for getting going a good old fashioned rousing game of #theworst?! I'll start with #theworst movie I've ever seen: Fire Walk With Me, the spectacularly bad, incoherent, not even giving an f, prequel to Twin Peaks. Yinz turn!

Fire Walk With Me is the worst movie I've ever seen.

Ok, who's up *now?*

@hendo12.bsky.social How's that move going? I'm about to move too, first house, with wife and 4.5-month baby.

In fact contains, presently, my birth certificate. #ADHD #ADHDSky

And a shoutout to #nonprofitsky #npsky #nonprofits — I'm about to be on parental leave for a bit but I'll be trying to keep up where I can.

Que pasa, Bluesky? How're the folks over on #parenting doing? How's ol' #ufosky? I've been crazy busy with life stuff. Good, mostly.

I gotta haunted computah over here...

I'm checking out #Blacksky Miles Davis' *In A Silent Way* for first time. Super excited.

Silverfish - discuss.

For fuck's sake, somebody be up and tell me something funny, please!

The robot mop was blocked ... By the non-robot mop. Get it?

Worst #BobDylan songs, let's go. "Winterlude" — New Morning

Teaser (but for reals): Saw a f'n UFO last night. Partner saw it too, confirmed the movement. The whole mysterious story coming soon on the pod. #UFOSky Apple: podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/u... Spotify: open.spotify.com/show/1FqGrez... RSS: feeds.zencastr.com/f/rBhBI5DK.rss

Who's up, damnit?!

Dear @anthropic.com, I really like Claude, and I'm really glad you've developed a speech / audio interface. But it suuuuuucks — it is constantly cutting off the speaker. It's maddening. Please devote some serious oomph to this! Best regards — Isaiah

New @ *UFO Focus* podcast #ufosky: Thoughts on Ross Coulthart brain dump, assertion "tic tac" was human tech, etc.; @dustinslaughter.bsky.social on FOIA video of "Mosul orb." Apple: podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/u... Spotify: open.spotify.com/show/1FqGrez... RSS: feeds.zencastr.com/f/rBhBI5DK.rss

The "This Day in History" thing that I didn't ask for that came with Windows says for today "Forest Gump starts its run in theaters." Pathetic.

Our @npquarterly.bsky.social #WetheCivic campaign is highlighting #nonprofitsky #npsky #nonprofits working to preserve civil society & democracy, e.g. the National Council of Nonprofits & @democracyforward.org, who sued Trump admin over attempted funding freeze. Join us! www.wethecivic.org

Had the great pleasure of UAP Register's @dustinslaughter.bsky.social on the pod, UFO Focus; Dustin obtained Air Force video of the "Mosul orb."

“In the last week, more than 200 veterans have volunteered to attend immigration hearings with Afghans who worked with U.S. forces during the 20-year war in Afghanistan…”

Hi, who's up?

The assassination of Minnesota State Representative Melissa Hortman created a feeding frenzy for disinformation. nonprofitquarterly.org/in-hortman-k... @isaiahthompson.bsky.social

Who's up around here?

My landlord more or less threatened eviction or at least non-renewal of lease yesterday morning. But we're good — because we aint going out like that.

I was wrong - once, circa 1993

Wow, watching Phil Hartman throw Paul Reubens under the bus and call him a "deviant" to Howard Stern ... does not reflect well upon the late Phil Hartman. #PeeWeeAsHimself

ngl this map of scheduled protests for this weekend is *wild*

Hi #ufosky, I'm about to *listen* to the WSJ UFO story from 6/6/25. I know it's going to make my blood boil! But I *will* have an episode about it, soon, on the pod. Apple: podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/u... Spotify: open.spotify.com/show/1FqGrez... RSS: feeds.zencastr.com/f/rBhBI5DK.rss

What if I was the only one in the USA who made clams at 3am tonight?

Jason Carroll of @cnn.com was detained by LAPD while live on air and told to leave, all of which violates CA Penal Code 409.7. Their security WAS arrested, even though they are also protected by law as "duly authorized representatives" of the media. I've been in touch with LAPD and Mayor's office.

@adamrose.bsky.social We're def not CNN, but I work for @npquarterly.bsky.social and would be very interested to understand what you're talking about! — Isaiah

Hiya #ufosky folks, I had the great honor and pleasure of being a caller on That UFO Podcast's "Listener Ramble" today. Thanks Andy! podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/w...

I am inclined to agree with a growing chorus noting that ChatGPT has become total unreliable shit very quickly. #ChatGPT #OpenAI #AI

If soon nobody really learns how to really write anymore, and you could argue that moment is unfolding already, does being a real writer count for more? Let's hope so, fellow journos. #journalism

Holy ...— anyone else notice a *drastic change* in #ChatGPT #AI voice mode? Does everyone already know this? I didn't and it's freaking me out.

You're not stupid. I'm not stupid. (That now being said, sometimes I am pretty stupid!)

Hi #ufosky, my latest mini-pod is up @ UFO Focus.

Hi #ufosky night owls, a new mini-episode of UFO Focus will be up in about 15 minutes, will promo next episode, which will be about ... the *USS NIMITZ* aka "Tic Tac" UFO. Apple: podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/u... Spotify: open.spotify.com/show/1FqGrez... RSS: feeds.zencastr.com/f/rBhBI5DK.rss

Conservatives Attack #Nonprofits on Capitol Hill: “This is about Trump and Republicans punishing people who disagree with them.” nonprofitquarterly.org/conservative... @isaiahthompson.bsky.social

Yeah I could look it up but I won't. Is peach a citrus fruit? I'm guessing ... no.

Been a busy stretch with work, #ufosky, but I have some good stuff coming. Including probably a little fun shorty while I get the next **UFO Focus** episode / series ready. Apple: podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/u... Spotify: open.spotify.com/show/1FqGrez... RSS: feeds.zencastr.com/f/rBhBI5DK.rss

Just contributed. Thanks for sharing.
