Never thought we'd figure out who was behind the Nigerian Prince scams. Never thought it would be the son of a South African emerald mine embezzler.

This - among many others - is a reason why a person who doesn't understand the medical community shouldn't be running said medical community.

DOGE recommended firing workers at: -FDA, which oversees Neuralink -FAA, which oversees SpaceX -USAID, which probed Starlink -CFPB, which oversees Tesla's financing arm and a potential payment platform on X. "Conflict of interest" is a severe understatement.

So #doop squad... How are we feeling about it new forward? I have mixed feelings. The stats look okay, but inconsistent.

My Trump supporting coworker hates that I refer to Musk's DOGE as "doggie".

If @philadelphiaunion.com don't announce the next signing (🇺🇾) on Bluesky, too, they might as well give the account back to @hulkunionsmash.bsky.social. #DOOP

This is why the Department of Efficiency is just a wool-over-the-eyes farce.

Just purchased today. I own this in many formats. I knew it had to be an early add to my #vinyl collection. #nowplaying #pinkfloyd

Keith Haring died of AIDS aged 31 on 16 Feb 1990. One of his last works, Unfinished Painting, was deliberately incomplete, reflecting the devastating, unquantifiable loss to the arts due to AIDS. #LGBTplusHistoryMonth

The wise @chuckwendig.bsky.social reminded me to share art. I haven't posted a photo in a while. Sorry. Here's one of my favorites from Eastern State Penitentiary, Philadelphia. It's now a museum, open to the public. And they are committed to stabilizing the ruins. Fantastic place for photography.

It may feel weird or somehow improper to talk about your art or your writing, but we need it. It can’t be wall-to-wall nightmare all the time. Art is both counterweight and context. It’s escape and enlightenment and a mirror of our own exasperation. We need it. We NEED it. Keep showing us.

How long with Hegseth last? The Scaramucci is the preferred unit of measurement, which is equivalent to 10 days.

Counterpoint: Sometimes it's important for your sanity to talk about the so-called unimportant things. @scalzi.com is a fantastic contributor with tangential thoughts leading everywhere. He's one of the ones that keeps me grounded in the current state of things. You should follow him!

The fragile masculinity of this administration is so very sad.

I unplugged from the 'net last night and listened to some records. I got into #vinyl as a means to simply connect with my music differently, and to encourage myself to listen to whole albums. I did not anticipate the meditative benefits of just listening to music like that. No ads. Beautiful.

You really can't appreciate Philly culture unless you've lived here. It's a beautiful mix of passion, superstition, traditions of unknown origins, and snark.
