What is it with people outside the US wanting to share their opinions on our elections? Love it when they get real cagey about where they're actually from.
Just watched the Pittsburgh Pirates manager get ejected for arguing that his batter should have been able to challenge a strike. He would have lost the challenge. 🤣

Why am I JUST NOW learning that JK Rowling hasn't washed her hands since 2018?
Faine Greenwood@faineg.bsky.social · yesterdayIt’s true, it’s just terrible that JK Rowling hasn't washed her hands since 2018..
I’ve heard there are rare versions of Flock cameras where this ratio is inverted. About 1 in 8192 have 2-3 lbs of gold and 2-3 grams of copper.
Faine Greenwood@faineg.bsky.social · 2d agochat can anyone verify that every single Flock camera has about 2-3 Ibs of copper and about 1-2 grams of gold
Massive unforced error. Not good at all.
Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez@ocasio-cortez.house.gov · 2d agoThere is pervasive corruption across our healthcare and agricultural systems that defy party lines. I meet with MAHA activists because a lot of their concerns are bipartisan issues that major corporations paint as partisan. The fight isn't left and right, it's top and bottom.

The OMB thing is huge, this is unarguably a Dem W. The rule they blocked was critical to the SAVE act. Part of the reason people think "feckless Dems can't do shit" is because wreckers post nonsense like this, framing clear wins as losses because they either don't know better, or have an agenda.
Murshed Zaheed@murshedz.bsky.social · 3d agoPatty Murray and Chuck Schumer decide to strike a “bipartisan” deal with … checks notes … Susan Collins to fund the Trump regime through December which appears to not to any include any safeguards against Trump’s meddling with midterm elections.
Media orgs typically do not consult their readers about headlines. In case you're wondering who is pushing the narrative.
PodKATT@podkatt.bsky.social · 2d agoThe NFL really isn't my thing, but I gotta tell ya the whiplash I felt this morning seeing some headlines. Y'all really carrying water for an Aaron Rodgers character rehab? Really?
You might be the first person I've ever heard mention Sideways Stories from Wayside School. I'm in my 40s, and I still remember the cover art. The stories almost felt subversive.
Movies Silently@moviessilently.bsky.social · 3d agoOr The Phantom Tollbooth. How I loved The Phantom Tollbooth! I actually should re-read that just for the fun of it. And Sideway Stories from Wayside School awakened my love of surrealism. Yes, good YA books are truly art. Where would we be without them?
The Brewers are competitive because of their farm system almost exclusively, they were unlikely to come over top of an offer like this for a rental player. I think they see the writing on the wall re: lockouts, and maybe just want to hunker down. Or maybe Attanasio is a salary cap accelerationist?
Micah@rincewind.run · 4d agoman I don’t think it’s at all correct - e.g. the Brewers could’ve beaten this and chose not to - but if the Dodgers threepeat after this a whole lot of baseball fans are going to take the owners’ side in the lockout next year it blows
I need to take ownership of my mistakes. I used computer. I think this happened because I'm a normal person. I know I've disappointed many of my fans who only watch my videos between praying and feeding the hungry. I'm sorry for being such a piece of shit
It's very salient but hermit tech's broader conclusions are "well we avoided any and all AI-related information and refused to work on any AI projects and the stuff we heard despite the information vacuum we've placed ourselves in sure seems bad so AI is all garbage."
Hey @amnestyuk.bsky.social, I guess everyone else on your list of threats knows how to get their name removed now. Good work.
Once again, I am compelled to inquire: If you're still on Twitter... why.
The New York Times@nytimes.com · 5d agoThe audience for pro-Trump content has fallen from its heights and, for some creators, has reached new lows, a New York Times analysis suggests. Views are dropping for many of President Trump’s greatest allies. nyti.ms/3TLV4TV
Imagine reading an article from Bari Weiss's CBS News that was as poorly sourced and researched as this one, and thinking "yeah, this GOP propaganda makes some great points, time to stick it to the libs!" Couldn't be me.

Jonathan Jarry@jonathanjarry.bsky.social · 5d agoI almost never use AI. Occasionally, I’m looking for something and I can’t figure out a way to query DuckDuckGo (AI turned off) for it, so I’ll ask an LLM. But I *never* rely on that output, and always use that as a way to initiate a proper search and find papers on my own.

The difference between Will Stancil and Kat Abughazaleh is that Kat used a bad faith quote tweet dunk on Will to solicit cash donations to her campaign consulting business and Will refuses to let anyone give him money to fix the slashed tires on the car he chased ICE agents around in.
