stumbleupon (circa '08-'09) was peak internet for me. I still remember specific articles, stories, pictures, and videos curated based on my interests which genuinely interested me and inspired curiosity And I don't remember ads or ever being targeted or gaslit into buying any products either

With Trump firing federal workers, contractors, and tariff-driven layoffs piling up, unemployment’s bound to rise. But don’t worry—Trump’s Department of Labor will just ‘adjust’ the calculation. Why fix the economy when you can fix the numbers and gaslight everyone?

Taps the sign

I’ve read about a thousand articles on the devastating California wildfires, and not one of them has dared to drop a "conflagration." Like, why even write if you’re not gonna flex your SAT vocab?”

Just bring back Vine. 6 seconds was the perfect amount of time for creativity, chaos, and comedy. TikTok is just Vine on performance-enhancing drugs—and we don’t need 3 minutes of people lip-syncing to explain why.

Trump’s ramblings on Greenland, Panama, and Canada are likely his usual bluster, bullshit, and distraction. But if you firmly believe we’re facing an unprecedented and dangerous 4 years... it sure does feel like a “dibs” aimed at Putin and Xi as the 3 of them carve up the New World Order

x X has ~18m daily USA users. @bsky.app, ~1.5m. Is it worth 20 MINS a day to proactively recruit and bring your friends, neighbors,relatives, businesses, anyone who is or could be a user, to @bsky.app? If Bluesky ends up with more users than the others, you destabilize musk, zuck, trump.

Completely unrecognizable politics

Sorry Bluesky, got lost in the bedlam 😅

Ya'll need to stop doing Starter Packs for the sake of doing Starter Packs. Starter Packs are for helping to find your community, your niche, not 1,500 people who all agree to post 💙

If Bannon pulls off these policy goals, Dems should worry about a permanent realignment. But come on, hiking taxes on corporations and the rich, with a GOP trifecta in place? Not exactly holding my breath. Great piece by @daveweigel.bsky.social

This does not bode well for Santa and the NORAD Tracker

Yellowstone didn’t just jump the cattle after Season 2—it’s been stampeding downhill ever since, somehow finding new ways to set the ranch on fire every season #yellowstone

SIXTEEN UNBEATEN AT OUR PLACE! 🤩

Partisan politics aside, can we admit this country shouldn’t be run by 70, 80, and 90-year-olds? Const. Amendment to add ceiling to the floor: Must be sworn in BEFORE age: 70 for President 75 for Senate 80 for House Also: term limits. 3 Senate terms, 9 House terms. Let’s retire gracefully.

Writers: “Black Doves” a spy thriller in London—light, funny, and stylish. We already lined up the stars of Pirates of the Caribbean and 007 Netflix: Depp and Craig? You diabolical bastards. Shutup and take our money Writers: ahhhhhh

Is there a New York public defender called Mario? Because …

Wanted the win but will take the point!!!

Yellowstone isn’t just cowboys and drama—it’s a masterclass on what not to do in estate planning. Want to avoid estate tax nightmares, disinheriting your kids (or not), and missing out on conservation easements or IRC 6166 benefits? Watch Dutton family chaos, then call your lawyer

D.B. Cooper’s full name was Dooper Booper Cooper

People forget True Detective S1 is basically about Christian Nationalists pushing school vouchers in Louisiana to sneak in their curriculum. Murder mystery? Sure. Policy drama? Absolutely.

Something that I’ve become rather protective of in the age of social media is my right to simply refuse to know who the fuck some people are.

The hardest part of moving to Bluesky? Finding all my favorite OG Twitter folks, orgs, and lovable weirdos. Starter packs saved me—ruthlessly “Follow All” the ones you like. You can always unfollow later. Trim the fat, find the fun, make Bluesky feel like home

My 2.5-year-old just called a Reese’s mini peanut butter cup a ‘small chocolate muffin,’ and honestly, the kid’s not wrong. Culinary genius or chaos agent? You decide.

Keeping my Twitter account just to check in and watch it burn—like the Hindenburg, which funnily enough, also crashed thanks to negligent Nazis

Morning all you wonderful people! Feel like 🌟networking🌟? Feel your reach could be reachier? Well please consider following along my fine friends here looking to do the same. This pack is loaded with people looking to grow with you! 😊 Would like to see this get some traction, taking new names sat!
