  @MostlyHarmless kid's got the same look as a frat boy pulled over on the way to the beach, body language and all

  @QasimRashid my initial reaction has been said by many here, but my wife pointed out Hitler was not disappearing non-Germans prior to the Olympics, not was the Japanese Emperor in 1940, Qatar isn't known that, nor is China, nor was Russia in 2014. This would be more like the World Cup and Olympics being held in North Korea or Iran.

  Elon Musk saying we need a third party to represent the 80% of Americans in the center of American politics is like saying 6 and 6:30 are both bad times for lunch so let's eat at 6:15 instead

  @kenwhite.bsky.social@bsky.brid.gy I'm not sure which is worse: the manic rants he composes himself, or the rants rewritten by staffers who have a pretty good understanding of proper capitalization, grammar, and punctuation.

  @fortyseven Yeah, I guess the NRA might need to admit now they're not Stokie Carmichael.

  @freedomofpress does he include a mandate that journalists don't accept any illegal invitations to Signal chats?

  An algorithm just introduced me to #Turnstile, and they're right that I like them, but that might be because they're so thoroughly derivative of #JanesAddiction that I wondered if #PerryFarrell was actually singing on a track or two

  Some of my best #photos from the Grand Canyon. A lot better than the last time I was there when I was too hungover to look over the edge and ended up taking pictures of people taking pictures of the canyon. (And that was the beginning of a lifelong love for what I now call #photoThePhotog, but that's a different story.) If you especially like any of these pictures and want to give the #photographer a little financial support, you can buy prints or high quality downloads. https://kingtor....

  T.J. never wore the Wingéd Wheel, but I always enjoyed watching him play #hockey even when he was making things difficult for my beloved #RedWings. I hope he continues to have a presence in the #NHL because he seems like a decent guy who is good for the game. https://www.stadiumrant.com/t-j-oshie-retires-relentless-hockey-folk-hero/

  @georgetakei lets not forget the things that have been illegal in our legal system (interracial marriage, sodomy, homosexuality, marijuana, alcohol) not to mention the selective enforcement that has been used to oppress groups of people (driving while black, etc)

  Has anyone else had issues of talking about #SlyStone and having people ask "do you mean Stallone?" No, I do not mean the writer-actor-director famous for characters who are big and tough with a big heart and a propensity to express their emotions through violence. I mean the musician-songwriter-producer who pioneered funk music. And these are people who know me well enough that I think they'd realize I'm far more likely to talk about funk music than tough-guy m...

  @lowqualityfacts I have a friend who was pointing out how every eatery at Disneyland tasted the time and that Panera Bread tastes exactly like a Disneyland eatery. Now I have to go visit a hospital cafeteria with that in mind.... Or maybe I'll just take your word for it. The Panera-Hospital-Disney Culinary Cabal.

  @itnewsbot "The Navy is not alone in its concerns." You think? We all deserve a right to repair. Intellectual property my ass. It's already illegal to reverse engineer and sell a patented product.

  @streetartutopia The one pictured on the left of this toot is my hands-down favorite. Most of the pictures look 3D, but I gather from a roadie cyclist riding it and a picture from the side that it is actually flat. Crazy. https://streetartutopia.com/2024/02/05/moving-dunes/

  @lowqualityfacts that really makes it seem less creepy

  @soaproot Side note: that particular house is for sale. Asking millions more than any comps in the neighborhood hoping someone wants to make it a Breaking Bad themed AirBnB. I imagine throwing a pizza on the roof will be an optional extra for people staying overnight and there will be a one-eyed teddy bear in the pool whenever a new guest arrives. Or maybe you'll get to pick your season and that'll only be for season 4 guests. I think it was season 4. Maybe 3.

  @soaproot You do you, but if you do talk about funk music, my advice would be to be prepared to talk about Sly Stone.
