Ok, I could be convinced to call it the Gulf of America. Reinstate Pluto as a planet.

4th and 12. You can't get sacked. Period. Brady insight? No mention.

TIL a football referee can award a touchdown after repeated, intentional violations of a rule

Here's the plan for the next four years: You see a blue news article, you click it, even if you aren't going to read it. You see a blue comment, you like it. You see a blue content creator, you subscribe. You see a blue cause, you help with it. We need to get every possible algorithm on our side.

Washington defensive game plan: stop Saquon Barkley Philadelphia first play: Barkley 60 yard TD run #nflplayoffs

Speaking of healthcare. Let's make @bsky.app the platform that fights misinformation. Some great follows are @drsusanoliver.bsky.social @jsm2334.bsky.social @therealtruther.bsky.social Let's get them more followers and engagement than other platforms and let health science accounts find a home

As a reminder, the Giants picked Daniel Jones over Barkley #NFLplayoffs

I just don't understand how many times #nfl quarterbacks get sacked in situations where THEY CAN'T GET SACKED. I think in retirement I'll teach a course on situational awareness.

Does #costco know something I don't?

Bad hair day

I'm sure the first thing they will rebuild are the tunnels

I think it's time for Sunday Night Football to replace Carrie Underwood with Taylor Swift!💙🇺🇲

Those of you flying in to beat the Texas snow, make sure you do it early enough Monday to avoid the cancellations airlines will do to avoid having planes stuck here. It's not enough that they can get in but they have to be able to get back out too.

Better at cable management #meme #cables #entropy

Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin in his farewell address: "You know, I was taught at West Point to pray that I would 'choose the harder right instead of the easier wrong.' And I have tried every day as Secretary to live up to that teaching." It's a prayer for America right now.

Lest you forget

Food for thought.

Chilling

I predict that, before the beginning of next season, the NFL Washington team goes back to being called the Redskins. #trumpeffect

Much as we can one-click follow lots of people, we should be one-click able to block groups as well. World make whack-a-troll much easier.

What's with all the penalty challenge outcomes being reported in-stadium before TV is back from commercial? Does the NFL not want the scrutiny? #nflplayoffs

Charlie Kirk called ASL interpretation a “distraction." In response, the president of the National Association of the Deaf board wrote: “This real-time interpretation can be life-saving during emergencies, when clear and immediate understanding is vital.”

This is getting old. The amount of purposely harmful disinformation is being spread like wildfire by MAGA regarding California and equipment being sent to first responders to fight #LAfires is absurd. Herewith, a statement from the Oregon State Fire Marshal: #RESIST #Disinformation

@newbalance.bsky.social I must be terminally unhip and not a fan of certain sports but, other than Ohtani, I don't recognize anyone in your commercial.

Brady: Aaron Rodgers passed the torch to Jordan Love. Uh, Tom, it was more like the torch was wrenched from Qaaron

It's amusing to listen to Tom Brady talk about quarterbacks who are willing to take the hit. Unlike him.

“We’re going to be the social network that lets you - encourages you - to say slurs”

Where was JD Vance at the Carter funeral?

Mike Luckovich gets it right as he always does

Watching this documentary in 4K on wingsuit jumping. Talk about sphincter-tightening! If it were a drone, I'd marvel at the flying but these are (crazy) people.

Imagine supporting a party so racist that they wanna rename a body of water because it has the word mexico in it.

every time I see a new share of the "State Farm has uninsured 50k homes in california because fire" piece I can't stop thinking about how their tagline is "Like a good neighbour, State Farm is there"

I guess this 3am interlude is becoming a regular feature. I need to find something better to do with this hour other than browsing social media. If only I had a bedmate.

Outrageous! This needs to blow up. They want to throw out 60,000 votes and steal the state Supreme Court election in NC!

It’s funny Zuck says “I started building social media to give people a voice” when in fact, he started building social media to publicly rate the hotness of undergrads.

At the VERY LEAST, since he accomplished nothing else to hold the leaders of this accountable, Merrick Garland needs to release the damn report and stop being afraid of his own shadow. Weak people all over this Admin is part of what got us here.

1. Hundreds of companies who pledged to stop donating to members of Congress who voted to overturn the election on 1/6/21 have broken their promise over the last 4 years But we've identified 10 promise keepers: Farmers Airbnb Expedia Nike Clorox General Mills Holland & Hart Qurate Whirlpool Lyft

One advantage of friends with young kids: I can unapologetically go see Sonic the Hedgehog 3 with them tonight and escape from the world for a few hours.

It's really not about leaving the other platforms. It's about bringing people here and giving them more engagement than the other apps. That's what people want. Engagement. Takes nothing to offer it If there is a user on another app that you like, DM them and invite them here. Post and tag me
