I have to leave the house now. I’m leaving laughing.

nostr:npub1vxyz8ugkn9qx2s0uydad2cutqjtrfcnsq7njdhcdqr64pxp9lu0sj3agn5 I appreciate an apologize for the frustration. The team seems pretty confident that those problems are behind us. It’s not happening for lack of effort. There are many challenges with this technology.
The murderous Republican party strikes again: A 16-year-old poultry worker has died due to a plant accident in Mississippi. That we have allowed conservative legislatures to bring back child labor, with minimal public comment from a complicit media is absolutely disgusting.
But once again, we will just take the easy route and blame politicians for things getting this bad.
We the public let it get this bad. We need to stop making excuses for us. We get the government we deserve.
going to get it done. One voice today has almost zero impact on anything. Literally a cry in the wilderness. I just don’t understand what presents some of you socio-political feature writers from realizing that’s a story that needs to be told. Does nostr:npub1uxz060za0sz7uzncy45jcksak2lr9wks0hrgug54cvpm9ma8agkqs35ma4 have to explain everything to us? 😎 2/2
Trump’s white house nemesis, Miles Taylor (aka “Anonymous”) has really refined his message. He was brilliant on Morning Joe, saying, ironically, that the path forward is urging more conservatives to drop their anonymity and openly thrash Trump and Trumpism, as Grift Christie is now doing. But pardon my broken record, but nothing will change until someone spends some money to promote these messages aggressively to world contingent on performative digital politics. One book isn’t … 1/2
I swear, before this Trump saga is over, we're going to learn that Lindsey Graham, Jim Jordan, Ron Johnson, and the rest of the blow job glee club were all blackmailed by Trump. Effectively. And the MAGA response to that will be "What about Hunter's laptop—or Benghazi?"
I hope you dumped your crypto before "Easy Money" dropped today. Because it's gonna get ugly. Excellent news.
Good morning. Today is the soft launch of the new, rebranded release of Calckey, the ActivityPub community software for choosy fediversians. Coming to a download server near you :)
I forget who it was ,but someone voiced a similar take almost 2 months ago. Wouldn’t it be ironic if the Facebook prevailed not because it had particularly good moderation, but that it had any at all to cope with a massive, global user based? The problem with takes like this is that they assume Blue Sky is determined to follow previous paths. Unfortunately, that’s probably exactly what they’ll do.

basically, it’s a super thin carbon fiber plate (1.5mm thick) that goes under your insole. It prevents your big toe from flexing at all. it sounds like it would be awkward, but you barely feel it at all. I’m sure they make them for other toes too, but this is the popular one. FYI : carbon fiber is extremely strong, extremely thin material used in drones and other modern aircraft.
I’ve been suffering from a painful big toe joint since I got a joint implant 3 years ago. I get steroid injections 3 times a year. My surgeon decided to only see surgery patients, so he hands me off to Nishit, a 35 year old surgeon who says “I want you to try these. Other patients swear by them.” NOW they tell me (15 visits later). Fuck. They work brilliantly. If your toe needs to flex less too, try it. Worth every penny.

It's fun to root for the underdog. Even if he's a snarling mutt who should be put d… away as soon as humanly possible.

I cannot escape the horror. I will never forget the time I had a colossal brain fart and left Manhattan for Florida. My kiwi roommate, a brilliant colorist, stopped in this tracks, turned and looked at me quizzically, then asked, “Why the fuck would anyone want to move to Florida? What exactly are you thinking? ”
He’s been dead a long time, but every time DeSantis opens his mouth, Nick’s question comes back to haunt me.

Extending the Saffir Simpson scale to a Cat 6 would be pointless. Sort of like comparing Zuckerberg and Musk. They both do so much damage, the distinctions are in the margins, and academic at best :)
Also: We here who must live in South Florida, would appreciate it if hurricanes were never mentioned. It just never worked out well never works out well.
nostr:npub1u27r9h3j9pvrplaffsmpn698e8xhmuqhdgcxldv67ammql9pumnqha3qfq A good friend of mine was a senior project manager for Oxfam. She said “cross-borders organizing is another example of herding cats. Except all the cats are hungry, drunk, corrupt, or just dropped a tab of acid.”
Good luck, JE,.
PS
I’m here to help!

Your explainers should be celebrated as a model that more journalists should strive to emulate when covering a wide array of important issues. You’re so good at it, you make it look effortless.
Which, of course it never is.
Thank you for your service.
You you doing todayand at least 7 other people… in his family.

The American media bends over backwards to cover every aspect of heat waves, or incidence of extreme weather, except the the extreme conservative politics that are causing it without a second thought for future generations. And we all just watch them do it. Sometimes we bang the table; sometimes we scream profanities; but most of the time we blame politicians and shriek “why doesn’t somebody DO SOMETHING?”
Alas, Somebody never seems to give a shit. I think we need a better strategy.
Sorry, this thread was borked somehow. I’d best delete and repost. Sorry!
