So Al Sayed won by 4 points instead of like 16 and now I’m already seeing dooming about the blue wave not being real, and I think that’s my cue to stay off Bluesky for at least the week. See y’all later.

Anatomy of a Gundam show: 1) Dense geopolitical lore, sometimes but not always prioritized at the expense of character development 2) A view of war as an atrocity, regardless of circumstance 3) HEY GUYS LOOK AT ALL THESE BADASS ROBO-TANKS!

Somebody find me that tweet about how the person in question clearly has a fetish for being yelled at.

This may sound radical but "games are shit" is actually the median opinion of every Gamer.

Bryan Johnson's obsession with immortality is because the original ritual he performed in 1888 is wearing off.

Hold on now. Let's not blame the factory when deregulation is clearly the problem.

There’s a whole team of people who’s job it is to scrub the oval down to bare concrete and rebuild it after a president leaves. They won’t have any trouble with this tacky shit.

by the time he leaves every square inch of the room is going to be covered by gold leaf and you won’t be able to walk in the door without blinding yourself

One thing you can see in the latest Stancil blowup is that a sizable share of this website thinks that good intentions are the only thing that matter in policymaking, and expressing skepticism that a policy will really work as intended is equivalent to stealing food from the poor.

There probably was someone called Emily Wilson who wrote a critical review of Nolan’s Odyssey, but most of what we now think of as “Wilson’s review’ is probably the result of codifying a long tradition of anonymous Bluesky posting.

Marx was very concerned about the empirical and economic basis of his theories. Could do with a bit more of that in some quarters.

In the sense that antibiotics are to blame for the reduction in infectious disease deaths, yes

Another classic case of “sucks to suck”.

Behold the true fate of Mitch McConnell, who hath angered the spirit of Spooky season! It has been determined that he shall serve a greater purpose in this form than as a Senator, if only because as a pumpkin, he shall do far less harm.

i have muted the threads that were on the feed and which you were probably expounding for depression forgive me they were tedious so tedious and so tedious

My ideal post Trump world would be one in which this sort of prejudice (along with stuff like genuine outrage at hearing other languages or having to “press one for English” would end up in the next DSM as an actual psychological disorder.

Mitch McConnell isn't dead, but he is dying, and the best possible situation for Democrats is the one we have now, where he's too sick to leave the hospital but too stubborn to resign, and you should be extremely suspicious of people demanding Democrats rescue the GOP from this situation.

Guy playing Chase in neuromancer is older than me, which means I’m still cyberpunk protagonist age. There’s still time. The window is open.

I wonder how much of the third space discourse is just elder millennials who miss shopping malls?

ArgellaStone@argellastone.bsky.social · last wk.

If I go onto my city's reddit page I'll see people endlessly lamenting the death of third spaces, meanwhile everyone in my city gets a monthly mailer published by the city advertising all the in-person social activities available across town for that month.

“AI is a meaningless scam that just generates words to promote the right wing agenda of tech bros” meme is statistical error. AIs Elon, who lives in a k hole and spends all day trying to destroy his hot transgender daughter, is an outlier and should not have been counted

Child, requesting Cars: "That's his name because he's fast like lightning, and he's a queen."

When people tell you you just don’t understand what 2008 was like when Obama was running, this is what they mean. A Young black man running for President told America openly in his youth he habitually did cocaine and then he won Indiana

Lots of ostensible Democrats sure seem to think it’s important that the Republicans have every possible vote in the Senate.

Michael J. Stern@michaeljstern.bsky.social · 2w ago

If Andy Beshear does not push this to a conclusion that either has him appointing McConnell's replacement, or McConnell reappearing, Beshear will be out of Democratic politics. We need rabble-rousers, not the same quiet, proper Dems who keep losing.

Convinced there's gonna be a weird divide in the future between people who are taking *lots* of shots and people not taking *any* shots You're gonna either be dying of disease we solved a century ago or you're gonna be taking cool peptides and custom mRNA stuff to have very ideal health

if you think something being "natural" or "plant-based" makes it healthy and something being made in a lab and loaded into a syringe is inherently dangerous, you're an idiot. you should lose access to your kids if you harm them due to this belief www.propublica.org/article/more...
