Uh oh. Grampa's been watching those moving pictures again and thinks it's witchcraft.

Gen X trying to find relevance. I have a husband, 3 sons, and a best friend who lives too far away from me. Introvert who needs distance. No touching.
Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com · 2d agoI ended up with cardio issues. Oh wait, that was from getting Covid in the end of 2020. Before a vaccine was available. That's right, the vaccine protected me, the virus harmed me. All those "V" words can be confusing.
Brandon Friedman@brandonfriedman.bsky.social · 7d agoThis is Middle Ages-level superstition and ignorance. The cause of cardiopulmonary issues like those he's describing is covid, not vaccines.
My 25yo historian is thoroughly disgusted they are trying to resurrect the "Red Scare"

Dare Obasanjo@carnage4life.bsky.social · last wk.“What we need to explain to the world: Number one, we are close to creating a genie that can grant any wish. Number two, we are going to make sure that our first wishes broadly benefit humanity” - Sam Altman, CEO of OpenAI — This is definitely the opposite of Anthropic’s AI kills all jobs pitch.
My oldest went to a wedding over the weekend. He got back today to discover his A/C had gone out. It's 96° degrees in his house and can't be serviced until tomorrow. I told him to get a room. That's too hot for sleeping.
That looks like a wolf in sheep's clothing

Death is not the only bad thing that can happen. Sometimes death can seem like the merciful thing that can happen.

Finally, a gym with a built-in Cancel Membership option.
huck mason@tylerhuckabee.bsky.social · 2w ago@betsyshirley.bsky.social pointed out that this no-girls-allowed Christian gym's covenant replaces the Bible's usual triad of "the orphan, the widow, and the stranger (stranger = poor and/or immigrant folks)" with "the orphan, the widow, and [the unborn]." interesting.
This is what happens when you leave the Acronym Workshop before the peer review breakout session.

We may have been at war for 47 years, BUT, if you notice, we've only been in a "military conflict" for 4 months. So...whatever that means
Nicholas Grossman@nicholasgrossman.bsky.social · 2w agoOrwell is cited a lot these days, and yes "we have always been at war with Eastasia" applies here. But the most Orwellian thing about all this is doublethink. You are required to believe the US and Iran have been at war for 47 years AND that the US and Iran have been at war for only a few months.
A good journalist could crowd source a good income by just putting this admin's feet to the fire by asking the questions we all want answers to.

What would be great is a sunscreen that doesnt melt off your face and into your eyes and stings.
Continuing our road trip, we just passed the Clinton Presidential Library in Little Rock Arkansas. We did not stop. We don't esteem Clinton as highly as Eisenhower. Or maybe we prefer presidents not of our lifetime.
My husband and I are currently on a road trip to MS. We made a short detour to Abeline KS to vist the Eisenhower Presidential library and museum. Would have loved more time. There is a greyhound appreciation museum across the street. It was closed today. No puppy snuggles.
Sister manages the people who manage properties accounts payable for a large property company across states. Maybe i could? Older brother is a consultant for UDOT. I don't even know what we does. Younger brother was a deputy sheriff now he works for a utilities billing co. I dunno.

In 1998 we enlisted Mapquest to route us from Edwards AFB in CA to Dover AFB in DE It's mostly staying on the right freeways and hoping for no detours (we hit a massive detour in TX) that was pages of directions.
Michael D. Green, PhD@michaeldgreen.phd · 4w agoCan’t lie, the fact that y’all were driving with PAPER maps is insane. Even worse, you had to ask random strangers for directions??
They may have spoken AT Mitch, but WITH him? I'm going to need video evidence from a neutral party that he was able to participate at all.

I know it's a national story, but I really don't need 23 stories about Charlie Kirk's parents and widow being Utah for the beginning of the trial unless I also get 23 stories about the conspiracy theories of who "really" killed him.
The speech writer did a good job. Now let's see how he ad-libs.
What are the prediction markets saying about Trump actually showing up for the speech?
