Huh. So this thing still exists. Ope.

To the person blasting Rick Astley driving down the street…

I'm confused by the concept of a Millionaire reboot without the late Regis Philbin. He just...made the show, ya know? (No offense to Meredith Viera, who hosted the syndicated version, but she is a better journalist than a game show host.)

So @deninet.com and I are live on her Makertube right now working on my Model 100. makertube.net/w/fyqLdHAHte...

Oh hey we covered #SGDQ yesterday. (It's happening at the hotel across from WCCO.) www.cbsnews.com/minnesota/vi... cc: @helix.midwestspeedfest.com

Twin cities friends: no one happens to have the front page of the Strib from 6/15 do they? I meant to get one and forgot. But would love to add it to my newspaper wall.

I see it’s SGDQ at the Hilton this week. Love seeing all the nerdy kids :) cc: @helix.midwestspeedfest.com

@violetblue.bsky.social spotted on Duolingo today lol. Made me think of you.

Ah yes. Fireworks or gun shots. My most favorite game to play.

This is a very well-done documentary. Something you'd see on PBS. And it wasn't done by someone like Ken Burns. It was done by a teenager in London, @rikufryderyk.bsky.social. The next generation of journalists are doing some absolutely amazing work. youtu.be/ebC0cOx7fPc?...

I told you we’d be back

@violetblue.bsky.social Yo! Physics Girl update: www.youtube.com/watch?v=vqeI...

@violetblue.bsky.social bloop check your DMs

Paige who?

Why is it that it is impossible to shop at Target for less than $50 lol?

I believe the Pope’s new phone number is 7-7-3-2-0-2-Papaaaaahhhh. And yeah that’s a Chicago joke.

Another day, another block of an idiot.

Be a Richie in a world of Reggies.

The average American has three friends.

She ain’t the most pretty ship in the universe but she’ll do.

May the 4th be with you!

Once again. It’s just a drill. There is no tornado.

Reminder: it’s just a drill today. There is no tornado.

Nice job Fascinating Horror. Bravo. This is an amazing April Fools Day video. www.youtube.com/watch?v=zhhk...

@violetblue.bsky.social ran across this video this morning. www.youtube.com/watch?v=TjAF...

I always find the most random things…here’s today’s: Today would have been Lana Peter’s (aka Svetlana Stalina) 99th birthday. She died of colon cancer in 2011. In Richland Center, Wisconsin. No joke. Her daughter Chrese Evans owns (owned?) an antique store in Portland IIRC.

Cat…you picked a very inconvenient spot to chill out.

Flu is absolutely swamping Covid at the moment, with 8x as many visits to the emergency room this week. We're in the midst of very bad flu season, probably the worst in a decade

@eayoung.net Hugs! Great to see you back in front of the camera. We need more ladies in front of the camera. Especially now. (I’m a behind the scenes girly. I’m a deer in headlights in front of a camera.)

Pretty Plz.

If you live in the Los Angeles area get the Watch Duty app and stay safe fam

@violetblue.bsky.social came up on Duolingo today

@violetblue.bsky.social you might be interested in this video that popped up on my YT feed today youtu.be/SfPFEKaYw0I?...

I recently wiped the windows 11 SSD on my laptop for Kubuntu. Yes I know everyone is gonna tell me I should run arch. I’ve tried. It doesn’t play nice with my laptop. Plus I prefer Debian based systems anyway. And Kubuntu just works. Btw I would recommend following @vkc.sh if you Linux :)

It’s colder in Minneapolis right now than it is in Kyiv, Moscow, and Alaska.

I love getting to direct live, special shows.

Ehm @samuel.bsky.team @jay.bsky.team

New resources from us, including: - Style guide updates offering guidance on inflammatory language, bathroom restrictions, and other items recently in the news - An explainer on recent trans health care reviews - A roundup of journalism and analysis on U.S. v. Skrmetti

I was always told not to post something if you don’t want it going on the front page of the New York Times.

@violetblue.bsky.social HUGE EQ off the coast of Northern California. (North of the Bay Area.) They had a Tsunami warning for a while. earthquake.usgs.gov/earthquakes/...

The fun of living with a cat: Me: in bed Loud bang from the living room. Followed by cat feet. Me: turns on lights to check Cat: gives the look of I didn’t do it. It was like this when I got here. Yeah. Idk where he managed to get to but my foam roller fell onto the floor with a bang.

Twice now I’ve gotten Russian speaking uber drivers in Chicago. So knowing a little bit helps I guess lol.

@vkc.sh @tayloramyshow.bsky.social @actionretro.bsky.social just watched Macintosh Librarian’s VCFMW video. I think the Stop Bits needs a music video. And thanks to @thisdoesnotcompute.bsky.social I have the perfect retro camera to shoot it on that y’all could use. Lol.

@gwenners.bsky.social how the fuck did I not know you were the force behind TDOR?!?! (Reading the note our LGBTQ+ employee group sent out.)

I have officially deactivated my Twitter account. I originally created my account on Jan 25, 2007. I found love, and a community of fellow TV directors, in #amnewsers. But since October of 2022 it just hasn't been the same. Musk ruined it. I downloaded my data and got the eff out of there.

My station did a story on the local trans community's reaction to Trump's election www.cbsnews.com/minnesota/ne...
