"Online Rent-a-Sage" Bret Devereaux@bretdevereaux.bsky.social · 20h agoI think the best thing about federalism is that I don't actually have to care very much about a senate primary in another state. I hope Michiganders get someone they like, I don't need to have an opinion! Meanwhile, here in NC, @roycoopernc.bsky.social looks to be in a very strong position.
Two Chicago mayoral candidates: one who is looking to lockdown the Boystown vote and one who presently represents Boystown.
I would very much be down for a World of Darkness setting with Forged in the Dark inspired mechanics.

This screenshot of Jason Pargin reposting Will Stancil willstanciling about Kat bullying him for willstanciling somehow captures the *essence* of my BlueSky FYP these days. I don’t know what that says about me or this place.
The Odyssey lives up to the hype. I’m glad I’m not a member of a tribe whose identity politics would require me to perform conviction to the contrary.
…The irony being I really do like sea lions and would feel intuitively compelled to defend them to strangers on the internet.
“Here. You’re such a good customer. Have some extra bones. As a treat.” <sigh> What is the world coming to when you can’t trust Ren Faire bonemongers any more.

Rep. Aisha Gomez: “To look at people standing up against ICE and see ‘paid protesters’ says nothing about us and everything about you.” “That you cannot conceive of us loving our neighbors so much that we would actually do something for them.”
Short but it holds its own with the first two in the series. It’d be a great resource if you were looking to needle anyone mad about Nolan’s Odyssey.

@chrislhayes.bsky.social Senior year of college, I was assigned Revolt of the Elites but never read it because I wanted to play GTA: San Andreas instead. I felt bad in retrospect because it seemed rather relevant to our current dystopia. Would reading your book count as penance?
Someone better check with BlueSky’s admins to ensure they can handle the server load if this feud blows up.

The worst part about all this is there might not even be real Tulsi fans to rub this in the faces of.

@maklelan.bsky.social is there an argument to be made that the intent of Genesis 2:17 was a “white lie” like Santa or Elf on a Shelf? The type deployed by parents to uncomprehending children to illicit compliance or good behavior.

I managed to get every historically attested Roman road in Thrace onto the map for my tabletop setting! Hard to see unless you zoom in tho. Thanks Adderall.
I remain firm in my belief that it would be good for public policy if policy makers were required to view the most graphic outcomes of their stances. Crime scene photos of Kindergarteners chewed up by assault rifles. Footage of kids burning alive in Gaza. Audio on.
Not to knock the founding of Tenochtitlan, but I bet an eagle eating a snake on a cactus is probably a pretty common occurrence.
Disney should just release this version of Ep. 9. No explanation, just a competing narrative. Let future generations resolve the inconsistencies like with the Bible. I want a Trinityesque doctrine to explain how both can be co equal, co occurring, and canonical. www.awinegarner.com/duel-of-the-...

This 1952 memo from the Pentagon UFO files is superb There is no point preparing for aliens ‘because no one of consequence is going to take this rubbish seriously unless it happens. At that point, our policy will be determined in the traditional manner of grand panic.’ 🤣 www.war.gov/medialink/uf...
I endured the unfiltered internet of the 90s and 00s, but I frequently have to avert my eyes from food-based Taskmaster tasks.
