Book recommendation for The Safekeep by Yael van der Wouden. Lambda Literary winner for Best Lesbian Fiction. It's a compelling look at the intersection of queer identity and Jewish identity in The Netherlands following WWII. #booksky #TheSafekeep

It was Corgi pile nap time this weekend #corgi #corgicrew #dogsofbluesky

Totally agree, #AppleMusic needs a way for the user to have songs, albums, playlists, stations be ignored by the algorithm. I listen to ambient tracks sometimes but I don't need the latest ambient songs showing up in my New Music playlist.

A visiting Blue Jay, such pretty blues #birdsky #bluejay

1/3 #LongwoodGardens Christmas. Gorgeous!

New artwork in my guest bathroom by #JennaBarton, #ElisabethFrink, and #JohnKennMortensen. The artist's description for the first piece is: “Cruel,” he thought, “how stories go—with men as heroes, and wolves as foes.” I used that as the theme when picking the other prints. 💛

This is great, Philly radio station WXPN did a poll and compiled a list of the greatest song covers. Be sure to click on the Artists/Songs most covered on the left.

This is a great breakdown of Sylvester's "You Make Me Feel (Mighty Real)". It's also available as a regular non-video podcast, available wherever you get your podcasts. #OneSongPodcast youtu.be/LvaLhfe3WNE?...

I've been enjoying this daily logic puzzle game. Difficulty varies from day to day, from Easy to Hard to Evil. cluesbysam.com #CluesBySam

Posted on Bluesky and all the links are to X 🤦‍♂️ Like really everyone, just stop supporting X. Sorry not sorry.

You wanna see an LLM have a nervous breakdown? Ask ChatGPT "is there a seahorse emoji?" Apparently this causes other LLMs to freak out too. Exposes the lie that they are actually reasoning. #ChatGPT

I made iPhone wallpapers with the Portland Resist Frog #iPhone #wallpaper #resist

I made another custom Connections puzzle. This one is doing something a little different for the groups... connections.swellgarfo.com/game/-Ob-UT7...

It's really frustrating the hoops you have to jump through and the poor experience you end up with if you want to customize your #iPhone home screen. #Apple just let us customize our app icons! And allow widgets to open apps directly!

"Sorry. We decided there were too many children. You know how it goes. Their hands are too small. Sometimes they are sticky, and no one knows why. They say they’re eating their dinner, but you can see that they are just pushing it around on their plate."

I hope that all states with Democratic governors join this alliance #RFKjr #CDC

RFK Jr is a disgrace and his actions are endangering Americans' health, according to nine former CDC directors. #RFKjr #HHS #CDC #NIH

A great article from @kirkhamilton.com on internet platforms. kirkhamilton.substack.com/p/against-pl...

“Have these companies given thought about how this data might put their customers in danger, whether it's cops stalking their exes or aggressive ICE agents targeting yard workers? Probably not." www.404media.co/home-depot-a...

Tired of seeing these all over the web. Maybe we don't want an illegal monopolist controlling web sign-in.

Substack sent a push alert promoting a Nazi blog. “Substack is primarily funded by Andreessen Horowitz, a firm whose founders have pushed extreme far right rhetoric.” There was *an actual swastika* in the push alert! [patreon.com]

Last week we spent a week in Pigeon Forge TN -- our annual group trip with eight friends. Our mountain house was visited by mother bear and cub one morning. A great week with friends, too much eating and drinking, and lots of laughter and friendship!

This is lovely. #autism www.mcsweeneys.net/articles/an-...

Finding of a recent survey of 90,000+ trans Americans: “trans people who go back to living as their sex assigned at birth do so because of transphobia, not because of doubts about gender or transition”. [them.us]

Highly recommend this book! The story of a gay Hungarian immigrant to the US, spanning roughly 40 years of his life from 1944 into the 80s in New York, Los Angeles, and Paris. The story and settings are interesting and moving, and the writing is fantastic! #LGBTQbooks #QueerBooks #BookSky #MLM

@matthewcassinelli.bsky.social any sign in iOS/macOS 26 that Shortcuts app syncing has been improved/rewritten? 🤞

AppleInsider wins for the most histrionic Apple pundit headline this week. "Historic" -- yeah I'm sure in 10 years we'll still be talking about this.

Slate Hit Parade podcast has a good two-part episode about the history of LGBTQ pop music and musicians

I recommend Wild Geese by Soula Emmanuel, winner of the 2024 Lambda Literary award for best Transgender fiction. It follows Phoebe, a trans woman, over the course of a weekend reconnecting with an ex who pays an unexpected visit. ⭐⭐⭐⭐

@aimeemann.bsky.social at the #930club last night in DC. Love her, my fourth time seeing her. She was introducing her "most depressing song" and said, "It's got it all: hopelessness, mental exhaustion, and just giving up" and someone yelled "Welcome to DC". 😆😭

This little shit likes to drop the ball behind the fence and then demand that I go get it! #corgi #corgicrew

I'm excited to get my hands on the public Apple OS betas next month to check out the new liquid glass design. It's impressive design and engineering work. Whether it makes for a good UI remains to be seen. #Apple #WWDC developer.apple.com/videos/play/...
