must everything get a gritty reboot

I reiterate my opinion that to the extent I disagree with Bluesky moderation it is that they do at least an order of magnitude too little

The destruction doesn't make for a photo-op like tearing down the East Wing of the White House or bulldozing the Rose Garden, but it's every bit as bad. Generations of American children learned to spell and count, learned the Preamble to the Constitution, from watching shows produced by the CPB.

Josh Shapiro: I like to FIRE UP the app, because I'm not READY TO GO to the store. John Fetterman: Using Arabic numerals is antisemitic Abigail Spanberger: Here in Northern Virginia, diversity is our strength, and I can make it so no-one will ever find your body.

And in the lottery for Cherry Blossom

I prefer Robin Hoods who can speak with an English accent.

You can't be intentionally hostile to people while demanding they stay in the space that allows you to be hostile.

You can hang out in a bad bar with your friends and it’s alright, but if you try somewhere new and all the patrons line up to throw drinks in your face you’re going to leave no matter how much you deserve to have a drink thrown in your face.

think smaller, more legs

Checo and Terry Boatass on Hot Ones this week?

wait, *marco rubio* is going to run man utd?

My theory on why society got so much worse after COVID was that 2020 marked the point where normal people did the majority of their social interaction online and when they went out into the real world in 2021, all those anti-social impulses were now a part of their real world personality.

i think people are wildly overestimating the level of strategic thinking behind what just happened in venezuela

A thing I heard on the plane earlier: a man with an Australian accent saying "Sprite, with ice."

5 miles in 25 degree weather... no such thing as bad weather, only bad clothing.

Shaun is classic one two punch of being kind of a moron *and* being British.

hey man you could, you know, stop using the nazi csam site. always an option.

Ok time to do ANOTHER Pacers run (b/c my current pair of running gloves is woefully inadequate for actual cold weather, apparently) and then start meal prep.

I hope you have a good NFL Sunday on Bluesky, the official app of sports.

various protosocialist Dissenter groups

Oh you’ve had the stunning original insight that Republicans are a depersonalized force of nature and Democrats are the responsible adults we *should* be able to trust to fix nature, I guess? Even though more of us decided not to vote to fix things at all, or voted in favor of the destructive force?

I am not a fan of this dry air

I feel like this is correct but also not something Matt, specifically, gets to be glib about.

we eat all the summer rolls and lemongrass beef until the summer rolls and lemongrass beef are gone

My Dog Ate My Homework-ass administration (evergreen)

DC reporters love this shit so much. They loved the Iraq invasion and they love this too. It’s incredibly exciting to them and they don’t care who knows it.

was debating indian vs borger for dinner before the true light shined upon me: vietnamese

The thing about all these statements from Democrats is that I simply dgaf because I am apparently one of the fleetingly few people On Here who remembers that social media isn't real life and that whatever these guys post online doesn't matter & everyone will have forgotten these posts in two days.

it is both true that dem leadership statements suck and also true that if you are vomiting in anger over them are you are very definitely reacting to the wrong thing right now.

If we're gonna RETVRN to the 50s or 70s by doing coups in Latam, can we at least get Good Maryland to go along with it?

10 miles, 1:17:16. Not bad for the first long run of the training block.

brb, gonna hop on an FSU message board and ask why Norvell outlasted Maduro

I think we need to be able to balance the reactions "this is another expression of 250 years of American imperialism" and "what do you MEAN we kidnapped the president of Venezuela and renditioned him to the US and are now claiming to run the country" Moreover, ICE must be destroyed

Hearing second- and third-hand reports that Grandpa is sundowning real bad, like worse than usual.
