Five for Fighting and Two for Instigating

This is a moral obscenity.

Good Lord, look at Andreesen's latest word salad. How is this any better than talking to a reference librarian?

One very funny side effect of having smart and accomplished friends is seeing complete strangers compliment them on the Internet.

Cliffs of Dover. Possibly my favorite song ever.

I heard rumours about Goldhill's inappropriate behaviour toward women over a decade ago when I was at Bristol. This is probably the tip of the iceberg, I'm sad to say.

plz

The lies linking me with the Stay Puft Marshmallow Man need to end today. I never chose him as the form of the Destructor. I never had a relationship with him or Gozer the Gozerian. My memories of him cannot be categorized as anything more than roasting Stay Puft marshmallows at Camp Waconda.

Carney needs a governing philosophy more substantial than budget cuts and "I'm not Pierre Poilievre." This is not the way.

When I lived in Brooklyn, my apartment was a short walk away from the diner in this article. Sad to see that a nice place to grab a burger is now being run by some idiot with an AI-poisoned brain.

End of curling season or world’s shallowest swimming pool?

Thinking about the opening scene of WarGames a lot today. No particular reason, I guess. www.youtube.com/watch?v=s6aC...

Niagara Falls (either one)

Oh, hey, cool: the kind of stuff my grandparents had to deal with is back.

People need to stop treating politics like fandom and stop being so weird to @erinbiba.bsky.social. Using First Amendment rights to demand that elected officials (especially the ones you agree with) keep their promises is Good, Actually.

To the tune of Suddenly Seymour: 🎶 Subito Sandwich, a te sta accanto…

Currently sequestered in suburban Ottawa, but got to sneak off downtown today. Spent some time at Library and Archives Canada to participate in a usability testing session for ādisōke, their upcoming joint facility with Ottawa Public Library.

This site needs a break. Post 3 good things, none of which are the cessation of a negative. 1. The sound of skates gliding on ice 2. When the cat who "doesn't like people" sits on your lap 3. The look of recognition after your person has scanned a crowd for you and sees you

1. White South Africans are not subject to persecution, otherwise these people would not be going back. 2. When I was in high school in the US, I probably wouldn't have minded if my rugby coach (who was a Boer) got persecuted a little.

#1: How long until Trump tells the Emiratis to make this happen? #2: I didn't realize until now that Qeshm is kinda shaped like a dolphin.

I just submitted an assignment for school that I was agonizing over for a while ("Am I doing this right???"). Then I go and do this. I feel like I'm flying.

Paternal: became a father at 16, just barely finished high school, worked in lithography and printing sales Maternal: radarman on US Navy aircraft carrier (Korean War era), technical illustrator, NYPD detective (Bronx robbery, retired after 32 years)

The obvious answer is durian. Try putting that in a fruit salad.

This sums it up. It’s hard to be proud of being an American these days, but it’s also hard to shake off decades of support for the hockey team.

I also never thought I’d see Team USA win both hockey golds over Canada in a single year.

This morning has been weird as an American living in Canada. I’m sad that Canada didn’t win gold, but I’m not sad that Team USA won. That may not make sense, but it doesn’t have to.

Sincerely hoping this guy has grandsons named Rip and Turbo.

Always been a bit of a George, so: "Something"

My message to the Eagles and their fans:

One time in college, I burnt my dinner, which set off the smoke detector. I jumped up and down waving a towel in front of the smoke detector to get it to stop. Coming down from the last jump, I landed on the side of my right foot, spraining the ankle.

I don’t think Americans realize how common this is. The current administration has inflicted generational damage upon the country’s most important partnership and friendship.

Tick tock, Portnoy. GTFO

Curtis Sliwa is truly an old school hater, and that is one of the very few things I respect about him.

Hit after hit after hit from Zohran's social media team

Now that Cuomo is gone, it's time to send Schumer packing as well.

In my local branch of the Toronto Public Library… editing catalogue records for a different library system

As a lukewarm Yankee fan living in Toronto, I am enjoying the Dodgers hate on the skyline. Such a frustrating loss for the Jays tonight.

Change one letter, ruin a candy S & M’s

Timely and gorgeous

How? How is there more with this guy?

Obviously appalling behavior from Cuomo, but also an incredibly stupid stratagem. Does he think there are no Muslims in New York who are registered to vote and have an internet connection?

Are there really no other Democratic politicians in the entire state of Maine???

People decided that Howard Dean couldn’t be president because he went “byaaaah” on live tv, and Graham Platner thinks he can be a senator with a Nazi tattoo?

Happy for the Blue Jays tonight, but especially happy for Don Mattingly. Donnie Baseball was my favorite player as a kid and this is somehow his first trip to the World Series.

And his supporters will see no problem with this. At least he can't replicate all 27... unless he gives back the entire upper Midwest to Québec.

Went to Scotiabank Arena to watch my beloved Rangers lose to the Maple Leafs. The whole game was such a sluggish, torpid affair that the biggest cheer of the night went to the Blue Jays when they took the lead in Seattle.

Emperor Tiberius goes swimming

Posting this mainly for @cutelittlebyrdy.bsky.social , but everyone else should get to enjoy it too.

Tough sports night for Philly. I wouldn't normally feel bad for the defending Super Bowl Champs, but as a lifelong fan of the Giants, I would be embarrassed about losing big to the Giants right now. Thanks for the win, anyway.
