I watched the full video of the meeting with Zelenskyy. Anyone who thinks the additional “context” makes it less of a shitshow is smoking really good stuff.

@HiltonHotels The entire property at the DoubleTree in Fairlawn, OH smells of weed. Hallways, common areas, etc. It drifts into the rooms.

I wrote this a year ago after attending a #HIFLD session at the Esri FedGIS conference. I stand by the post and especially its final paragraph.

Turns out "move fast and break things" is shitty public policy. Who knew?

@Linda__Stevens and I wrote a thing! https://x.com/Linda__Stevens/status/1887675952299397294

If I ever use "Gulf of America" unironically, it is a coded distress call. Send help.

Hey @Verizon, stellar service from your installer today. He showed up for a FIOS home install, noticed a problem with the drop, and went up four poles to troubleshoot. He spent four hours outside in the cold when he could have punted.

This is a great paper: www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S254...

Zero - three more fucks than I give about TikTok.

I saw someone on LinkedIn using the term “cold email” unironically, as if it didn’t mean “spam.”

Thanks, Elon, for the reminder to donate.

Happy to see so much of the geo community on Bluesky, including many I hadn't seen active here in a long time. Obvious bots are starting to show up, but it is so much easier to filter them there.

I am [at]geobabbler[dot]bsky[dot]social if you make your way there.

MCM FOMO today

Forward. Not back.

Hi @washingtonpost. I have been reading your pages since they were pages. I grew up and still live in the DMV. Like you, I recall January 6th and the daily chaos of the Trump years.

I am disappointed. If you are unable to make an endorsement, what the hell are you looking at?
