Ironically unironic.

Vision Zero only works if we enforce the law to keep the streets safe. Grateful for your work on this Brianne!

Just saw this new AI wrapper app called Berate Me that sends you insulting texts to motivate you. True innovation.

The Acting President discusses affairs of state, while the young boy and the old man share their boredom.

Unexpectedly!? Dude is out here threatening to increase prices on most goods by 25% through tariffs and it’s a SURPRISE that the CPI went up. Honestly, 3% is a gift.

This is frustrating for me, but of course it's 1000x more of a pain for the people around me.

Am I the only one who just didn't like Manhunt that much? It seems perfectly positioned for me: History + thriller should = 5 star gem but it just felt so slowly paced and procedural. In short, it read very well-researched a text book. #booksky

Now that it's all counted, the margin of victory in the popular vote was 1.5%. Sure, he won but don't let anyone call it a landslide or a mandate. #2024election

Looking for a desktop client for Bluesky that lets me drag and drop images into the post. @skeetsapp.com doesn’t do this, and it feels like I’m using an email client without a Send button. Does anyone have a #bluesky client they love?

Searching #booksky for good speculative fiction for middle grade readers? I recently listened to The Unwanteds and this is NOT it. It’s a McDonald’s Happy Meal of a book and I think my kids (and yours) deserve better. Full review: https://www.goodreads.com/review/show/7051128300

Our family spent over 24 hours of Thanksgiving week driving to and from Chicago and spent about half that time listening to family-friendly audiobooks. “Klawde: Evil Alien Warlord Cat” was by far my favorite: https://www.goodreads.com/review/show/7051129639 #booksky

If Bezos had real balls he’d explicitly list the estimated tariff markup on every item in the store with a number to call your member of Congress next to it, like Uber did with taxi regulations

This is old, which makes this post weird. But it’s such a good examination of apologizing and the inherent tension of doing so that I can’t help myself.

Mo Salah to Inter Miami is the kind trolling that I love to see. The MLS is such a strange place these days. @grahamruthven.bsky.social , where’s Sterling Albion’s bid? www.caughtoffside.com/2024/12/01/m...

Driving through Ohio past this solar “farm” and I can’t help but think this is not a great use of prime agricultural land. Do they at least graze sheep under these panels? Seems like a waste of potential energy joke should fit in there somewhere.

I am excited to hear what @joeclowery.bsky.social and the guys at TSS have to say about Man City’s continued slide. To be fair, they weren’t going to beat this Liverpool team at Anfield so maybe there’s nothing more to say yet.
