Leaving the country on Matariki feels like treason.

This is a vital message: one of the larger reasons BlueSky is refreshingly free of alt-right shitlords is because in the early days we made a gentleperson’s agreement to starve these fuckos out and it worked. No likes, no quotes, no engagement. They got bored and left. Please keep the Old Ways.

This sounds like a bit but I’m being serious: kids using chat gpt for their homework are denying themselves the invaluable experience of learning how to bullshit their way through a problem. You drink some caffeine the night before and figure it the fuck out. That’s a skill. You need it in life.

This is actually right. & I noticed a drop-off of this skillset well before Chat GPT. A fine law student tradition of seeing socratic questioning coming down the line towards you and frantically skimming the case you haven't read to be able to get out a plausible answer. Those skills are being lost!

Looks like Ferndale PD is the only regularly armed police org in the country. 😂

Reflexively checking news sites as we prepare to fly via Dubai later this week. 😬

I didn't know there was a winter edition, which may explain why I didn't attend. Glad to know the summer version will continue because it is simultaneously a core memory for me, a constant in my life, and awesome in its own right.

✨👏🏾STANDING OVATION👏🏾✨

I've put my Rosebud prop sled from Citizen Kane to good use in many of my pictures, including The 'Burbs! www.slashfilm.com/1885058/tom-... It's now up for auction. Own a piece of film history right here: entertainment.ha.com/itm/movie-tv...

There's an Up The Wahs V can and I wahnt one.

Disappointed this is the only Detective Mittens episode we ever got. youtu.be/tVx2uCcDXX0?...

*whispers* I like these more than pineapple lumps.

Looking up Maurice Gee titles and being reminded of something I'd forgotten, it's like getting smacked upside the head by the Tawa library circa 1985.

This is some BS right here.

If the opposition don't start using "Landlord lolly scramble" then they're missing a trick.

Dammit I was finally going to renew my @playstation.com PS Plus sub after letting it lapse but when I went to do it Days of Play had ended and the price had gone back up. Not paying the non-discount price, it's daylight robbery. No online plau for me until the next discount then. Fab.
