"I really love driving cars!" — a dog, after going for a ride.

Who called them tariffs instead of “Trumped upcharges”

I’m doing that very special ADHD thing where I ⌘+tab through my apps with no actual destination.

Nice day, today, though. #rochesterny #roc

I don't know how they manage to do this every year for Imagine RIT.

bsky is already in its rate limit exceeded era it took Twitter 15 years to get here and we did it in 3 That's the power of AI

This one stings a bit. I really wanted this to succeed.

Susan Collins grimly standing up, walking across her office, and with a heavy weight bearing down on her weary shoulders, moving her doomsday clock from "concerned" to "worried."

Schumer is focussing all of his energy on hoping the Republicans come to their senses today. He’ll hope around the clock, if that’s what it takes.

Did somebody already do this one? I apologize, regardless.

The thing about there needing to be a path of redemption for people who have been “canceled” is: there already is a path to redemption and it’s called “redeeming yourself.” The path is open! No one is blocking that! You just have to do it!

oh man you do *not* want to use the toilet after jackson pollock

An ugly car for $90K with screens all over the place. How could it have failed? 🤷‍♂️

Not trying to preach, and I know gas prices are going to have real effects on people’s lives. But if you live in a place that is at all walkable, and you are healthy, walking a couple of miles is not a big deal. It's actually kind of nice.

Welcome to second false spring, Rochester.

This legislation, long in the works, would require the Sheriff to disclose large surveillance tech purchases. I've also asked the comptroller to consider tech contracts professional services subject to legislative votes. Thank you to colleagues, especially President Roman, for helping push forward.

I could swear I heard a local radio presenter say “libations” instead of “Live Nation” this morning. Can only assume someone used speech to text and no one checked it before she read it on air.

If true, this is some pretty epic foresight.

Shot my first roll of 120 film. Pretty easy to accidentally do double exposures. Happy accidents! #filmphotography #doubleexposure 📷 Yashica D 🎞️ Kodak Porta 400 🏛️ Memorial Art Gallery, Rochester, NY

these are still weird stop filming your neighbors

If we've learned anything from the part of our history where we created the extremely powerful, world-changing, uncontrollable new technology of a social internet, it should be that whatever is about to happen with AI will, if nothing else, be extremely dumb.

@weratedogs.com continues to be one of the few truly good things on the internet. I appreciate that this is most likely going out to a whole lot of people who generally don’t think about these things.

Post a banger that’s not in English.

Everything is different, now.

I would pay money to watch every episode of Guy Montgomery’s Guy Mont Spelling Bee in the US. Make it happen, New Zealand and Australia!

I made the poster for this year’s Rochester Independent Comics Expo and it turned out pretty rad. May 16, gonna be a blast!

I am. But there are three things at play here regarding ICE collecting private data. Quick rundown on the issue, why you should be paying attention, and what I'm doing about it:

The biggest risk in this moment is something sociologists call “symbolic compliance.” That’s when an institution that is violating civil rights gives the public just enough symbolic victories that accountability efforts lose steam before there has been any meaningful change.

There are about 100 protesters outside Schumer’s building in the middle of the blizzard urging him to whip Dem votes against any more ICE/CBP funding.

My Shiba in his happy place.

Not loving the color scheme on the @nytimes.com snowfall map.

What if… instead of paywalling the reviews, they didn't show you the scores until you read it and successfully summarized it?

Sure. You can give $5/month to Pitchfork to comment on and score albums (Let’s be real, though. This is about paywalling reviews). Or you can give $5/month to @stereogum.com and know that your money is paying the people that make the site great.

Imagining Greenlanders, watching videos on social media of Americans having their rights trampled all over, thinking “Yes. This is what I want for myself.”

When you realize the economy is propped up on a series of bets that are not paying off and also you don’t have any dang legs

I Googled “Toyota RAV4 GR” and naturally the AI result was in Greek. Great jorb, Google.

This is so sad. A seriously talented guy gone way too soon. Black Midi are certainly not everyone’s cup of tea, but their first KEXP session blew my damn mind. www.youtube.com/watch?v=TMn1...

Maybe welcome people to the fold instead of berating them for taking too long, or questioning their virtue. Seems counterproductive to shame folks who are starting to get it.

I keep seeing this promotional pic of Noah Wyle for The Pitt. A couple of times, before it registered, I thought it was Tony Hale. That would a be a different show. Would watch.

Very fitting for Monday[dot]com being down on my first Monday back.

Kumail and Armando Iannucci!?!? Can’t wait!

Ugh. Don’t make me go to Tops, Danny! gothamist.com/news/nyc-weg... #ROC
