smashleyhamer.bsky.social - Profile | ThreadSky | a Reddit-style client for Bluesky

I just subscribed to the new pod Not Right Now. Perked up at "a podcast about parenting through (waves hands) all of this," smashed subscribe after hearing several fucks and @quinnemmett.bsky.social saying "maybe you have just one kid and you love them more than, for example, I do all 3 of mine" 💀

@justthezooofus.bsky.social My one albatross reference is The Rescuers (Down Under, idk why the sequel was the one we had growing up). Albatrosses Orville & Wilbur run the Albatross Air Service, which flies the little mouse protagonists around. This scene is deep in there youtu.be/G1VBEU4Q8WU?...

Something fun I just learned: The screenwriter for Miss Congeniality didn't like the original music they had for the pageant anthem, so he asked his 5 year old son to write a new one. The producers unknowingly chose it for the film. You can hear it in this clip: youtu.be/Kf0tmg27pWA?...

Question for the hivemind: If I want warm water to come out of a tap like this, will it warm up faster if I turn it all the way to hot, or will it take the same amount of time if I turn it to the medium temperature I'm looking for? Husband thinks it's the first one, but I'm questioning

Most succinct fact-check I've read of how LA Fire Dept's budget wasn't recently cut -- in fact, the opposite -- from @politico.com. But that misinformation spread anyway. www.politico.com/news/2025/01...

By "a ring," does the narrator of Santa Baby mean she wants Santa to pop the question? Seems like a pretty boring ask to end the song with otherwise.

Annual reminder to parents with kids music in their Spotify Wrapped that you can put it all in a playlist and then hit the three dots and choose "Exclude from Taste Profile." I had zero Ms. Rachel songs in my Wrapped this year.

I just got followed by a ton of podcasters, which is awesome. Am I on a starter pack?! Clearsky is down so I can't check. Even if I'm not I definitely want a podcaster starter pack, if anyone's got one.

Asheville is so proud of the Biltmore that there are at least three neighborhoods named after it -- Biltmore Park, Biltmore Village, Biltmore Forest -- all of which are far enough away from each other that any confusion will cost you 20-30 minutes in drive time

My hometown of Eureka, CA has a main street with a name that's a special trap for people who aren't from there. Buhne. Pronounced...wait for it..."booner."

honestly "your body, my choice" is such sophomoric little boy behavior, the thing boys say because they want to see what will happen if they do. it's the kind of thing a boy says before his mom grabs him by the ear and takes him outside for a stern talking to, after which he never does it again.

It's incredible what a toddler can do with a limited vocabulary. My kid only knows "hot" and "cold," but hot coffee, sour kiwi, and carbonation are all "hot," which I honestly can't argue with
