How many Scaramuccis will he last?

If the House ethics report showed that Matt Gaetz is innocent, it would have been released already.
Until Speaker Mike Johnson compels the public release of the ethics report, you are free to infer Matt Gaetz guilt.

MLK’s daughter have suggestions for the resistance

Also, part of the reason we did bought InfoWars is because people on Bluesky told us it would be funny to buy InfoWars. And those people were right. This is the funniest thing that has ever happened.

The party that is obsessed with child sex offenders, & is close to a cult that claims child sex offenders run the government, just nominated a guy once investigated for allegedly sex-trafficking a 17 year old girl to be in charge of the country’s legal system.

Beyond parody.

Graph of users over time and new users over time over the past 14 days from October 30th until the start of November 12th. We start with 13.5M users and end at 14.5M users. Each day shows a bar of new users per day and it keeps increasing, now adding over 200k new users per day.

Graph of firehose traffic over the past 6 hours overlaid with lines from yesterday, a week ago, and 4 weeks ago. Average event rate increased from 150/sec 4 weeks ago to 292/sec a week ago to 543/sec yesterday to 677/sec today. Event rate has increased by 15-20% daily over the past 6 days.

So I guess we're just doin bigger numbers every day now.

This is pretty damn exciting and I'm glad y'all are here and justifying the time we spent investing in scaling.

Really feels special to see this 20% day over day growth in activity and the "fresh of breath air" new users are experiencing.

this is what needs reckoning with

“The pillowy embrace of the Oval Office sofa, the sturdy yet supple curves of the Resolute Desk—it’s a good thing I can’t get in there until after No Nut November or I don’t know if I’d be able to make until December,” said Vance, opening up the centerfold to a West Elm catalog.

That's what we got now.
But not forever!

Umm. Not adding this one to my recipe box.

A watch salesman and a creep walk into an office supply store... Watch salesman tries to steal another chair, but creep has to leave due to restraining order.

Wow, that looks like max climb rate right there!

These idiots are going to try to deport Native Americans sometime in the next four years.

Made a recipe out of the Seattle Times for dinner tonight and it was perfect - warming and full of fall flavors. Cosmic Crisp work well in this.

New to Bluesky, but am already liking it more than that other site which is overrun with bots and racism.

A moment of zen, for whoever needs it.

I turned on Twitter’s revenue share in 2023 and ended it today with a $469.24 profit. Now I’m giving it back to things that would piss off Elon Musk, like local news and helping other people.

I wrote about why Voyager 1’s switch to a backup transmitter is a huge problem (and if you watch the video linked in the post, you will see me almost start crying talking about the possible end of Voyager 1’s mission):

I didn't deactivate because I didn't want a bot to take over my account name and make it look like I was posting. Elmo can pay to host my historical data for as long as the site stays around.

In a way, I miss the Sony Mavica... Spent an entire month traveling Europe with one, along with a suitcase of floppies.

When he read the dictionary definition of "bukkake" out loud and posited it as one of the worst types of things out there on the Internet that we can "all agree are horrible," friends, I nearly lost it.

Quite honestly a lot of us made a mistake not realizing that those annoying jocks in high school would grow up to become the adults in the room.

I've now had two different friends with high school aged daughters who've been subjected to shitty teenage boys telling them "your body, my choice."

And to say I'm incandescently angry is an understatement.

Guys, you shut that shit down if you hear it. This one is your work.

Learning so much about bluesky. Apparently not only are there curated follow lists but there are well curated block lists. Here's one I found that tracks MAGA accounts on here: bsky.app/profile/numb...
