Count me as off the "Romano has it together again!" bus.

yeah this is me as well I think. it's not that the "look at the hypocrisies of liberal democracy" stuff was like, *wrong*, it was frequently right on the merits, it's just that there was a real lack of introspection into what the likely alternative to "the hypocrisies of liberal democracy" was!

at the risk of going to Super Hell for this joke, was he drinking an Irish Car Bomb

Honestly hard to argue Miley setting up a junta after 1/6 until the American people were ready for democracy again wouldn’t have led to a better world at this point.

Incredibly, the last living grandson of John Tyler, the 10th President of the United States (1841-1845), just died at the age of 96. “Just three generations of the same family stretch almost all the way back to the founding of our country”. [kottke.org]

I don't think we give the Irish enough shit for pronouncing "Dublin" with 3 syllables.

Basically, Dems are playing pro ball with the crowd throwing objects at them, while republicans get to dunk on one of those mini hoops made for kids

If only the New Yorker had read @albertburneko.bsky.social six months ago it could have avoided wearing the clownshoes today defector.com/what-the-fuc...

Glad we’re defunding actual science while handing money to a Nazi grifter who can’t replicate technology from the Eisenhower administration

Timothee Chalamet was born to be in a mosh pit singing Dreams and Nightmares but cursed to have K-pop stans

They're all still tacky AF

NAMES OF THE 2025 WOMEN’S COLLEGE WORLD SERIES Addisen Brenlee Braiesey Camryn Chaney Cydney Graycen Jaden Kayden Kadey Kasidi Karlyn Kaylynn Keagan Kedre Kenleigh Kinsey Korbe Kierston Lair Paytn Persy Ramsey Remmington Regan Raegan Reagan Shylien Stefini Teagan and… FOUR (!) players named Rylee

New law proposal: If your website can't keep me logged in when I click into it from another source (for example, a Bluesky link) despite already being logged into that website in my browser, you are no longer allowed to require logins for anything on your site. At all.

May 26-27 we celebrate the Bat Pack - yesterday the birthday of Peter Cushing & today Vincent Price & Christopher Lee, shown here in 1983.

It'll always be Moonage Daydream (also I prefer the Wallflowers' version of Heroes)

The expansion of the concept "respectability politics" from "minorities shouldn't have to suppress their cultural differences to make political demands" to "you shouldn't have to refrain from insulting or threatening people you are Asking For Better from" is where I think things went gravely wrong

Important read about the bullshit elevation of unscientific "denialists" as heroes in both the press and our moronic administration.

Pacers out here like "anything you can do, I can do better!" including choking away a double digit lead.

Multiple people have been served at this bar in the hour I’ve been here who I do not for a second believe are 21

Fun day in Glenside, watching them drop a new bridge in

I hate crypto, I hate online gambling, I hate AI, I hate pay-later, I hate subscription models, I hate the gig economy, I hate ring cameras, I hate drones, I hate self checkout. I don't want to come off as a luddite but capitalism's hold on tech sucks.

The first person I'd want endorsing my health initiatives is a guy whose body practically decomposed in front of all of us during his career and who, in 2018, went on the DL after getting hand foot and mouth disease. bsky.app/profile/prod...

There are a surprisingly high number of obviously pregnant women at this wine festival.

Kind of Mason Miller to tank his trade value before we try to acquire him.

people complain a lot about 'PMC Vanguardism' among the bluesky set but its honestly just an overdue reaction to a solid decade and a half of being told that working in an office while having a college degree is morally equivalent to being hitler and actually justifies everyone else becoming hitler

Always funny how perceptions of temperature change. Two months ago when it was 50 I had my window open and shorts on. Today it's 50 and I've got a hoodie on in my office.

Having watched the replay, that ump who ran Walker Buehler ought to be suspended. You can't blow a call THAT badly and then go out and challenge the pitcher when he's pissed - that's Joe West level bullshit.

Nobody can waste a big lead and make us use our real bullpen arms quite like Carlos Hernandez.
