Did you misspell " a criminal" there?

That they probably taste like ostrich makes brontoburgers even cooler.

I've seen things you people wouldn't believe. Attack ships on fire off the shoulder of Orion. I watched C-beams glitter in the dark near the Tannhäuser Gate. All those moments will be lost in time, like tears in rain. Time to die.

I'm excited to share what I've been working on with @erikjee.bsky.social: RustNL's #rustlang Maintainers Fund!

Many people and companies contributing to Rust, but there are fewer and fewer paid positions for general maintenance (reviews,cleanups,etc). We need to fix that.

Fluffy baby!

This is less aimed at Vance than it is at the borderline schismatic right wing of the US Conference of Bishops, Opus Dei, etc. Forcing the US wing of the church into the 20th Century.
It's been an ongoing project since Francis. There has been much housecleaning.
Authoritarian judo.

There's a few corporate lawyers trying to get PR to be very very careful in their phrasing.
I wonder how much they have paid off his Estate?

Shhhhhhhhhh....

You're going to tip the marks and blow the con.

Vatican II made clear that Conscience is on purpose, so my reasoned differences with The Church are moral and ethical.
It means I have an obligation to keep checking, of course.

I'm not angry lapsed, I just don't have faith, and sleep in.

The framework is OK.

"I want to use the good words for my positions," is a very Southern Evangelical mode.

The cat: runs into the room with an air of urgency, stops suddenly, staring into the middle distance with a blank expression, turns around after a moment and ambles off
Me: OMG same

guys, this is how you lose the time war

Motor Head and Buzz Cocks.

Does sauce count as painted?

And Harlequin.

I filed for extensions on time?

No one was around to tell anyone to turn the shoe machines off.
That would be too much like work.

Long term price of BIRD. It started at 300 and rose to over 500.

Nonsensical context for BIRD and AI. The current huge rise is barely visible on the long term history.

Last year, I told New Yorkers: we would open city-owned grocery stores to take on the affordability crisis.

Today, we're delivering five stores in each borough — with the first opening next year.

Here's to healthy families, thriving communities, and promises kept.

Definitely not a bubble.

This is nothing like shoes being on the Internet.

“I never knew words could be so confusing,” Milo said to Tock as he bent down to scratch the dog’s ear.

“Only when you use a lot to say a little,” answered Tock.

Milo thought this was quite the wisest thing he’d heard all day.

Galileo was kind of an asshole about the whole thing, though. Making fun of Urban in print the second time was asking for it.
The heliocentric thing was almost beside the point.

As an aside...
Tuxedo? In a pseudo-medieval romantasy?
