"I'm sorry if my comments hurt you" The most BS non-apology way to apologize. It's not taking ownership with "I'm sorry for my hurtful comments." It's making it about our reaction to his hate - with the implication that we're overreacting.
Seth Moulton’s anti-trans rhetoric comes back to haunt him in Senate debate with Ed Markey
"I deeply recognize your trauma, and I'm sorry if my comments hurt you," the congressman said.

didn't realize that I'd caught up with LUCKY today at lunch so I've spent this evening filling out online paperwork to become a supplier for [redacted New England university] and anyway, this was substantially less fun than a new episode of LUCKY even if it will result in new business next month

I used to install safety cameras, the only tech in them is a cup and a piece of string - no metal at all. There is, however, a very annoyed redback spider from Australia. We're not sure why it had to be a redback, we tried funnel webs and hunstman spiders, but only the redback worked.

Brooke Harrington@ebharrington.bsky.social · 2mo agoI miss the days when America's crackpot media was whimsical instead of being a hate machine. Somewhere I still have the post-9/11 issue where WWN put Bat Boy on the cover. Good times.

Social media bans based on age are just incredibly stupid and ineffective - with huge privacy downsides.
Ben Schwarz@benschwarz.bsky.social · 2d agoAustralia’s eSafety commissioner buried a report (released Friday afternoon) that shows the under 16 social media ban didn’t tangibly reduce teen social media use, and also resulted in parents tuning out of kids usage.

A few weeks ago I realized that tomorrow is the date the Ray Bradbury story “There Will Come Soft Rains” takes place. It’s a shame science fiction from 75 years ago isn’t relevant anymore

Spouse acquired a bottle of this, and it makes a very nice Manhattan, but I think I'm going to have to try brown butter-washing a little bourbon to see how well it plays with that. You know, for reasons.

Mike Parker@mikeparker.bsky.social · 4d agoFive minutes of utter joy: hundreds in central Birmingham singing and dancing their hearts out to ELO's Mr Blue Sky. They performed it live on TV, part of the handover ceremony to the city for the last Commonwealth Games. As they say on Insta, watch to the end. #brum www.youtube.com/watch?v=zU_x...

If anyone uses Stripe to get payments, go to your Settings (Gear icon) > Plans and Fees > Radar (View plan details) > View Plans > Scroll to "More Options" and select "Lite" I want none of the money I earn to go to AI if I can help it.
