“If you're curious, I can show you three additional Iranian targets worth bombing. The last one might surprise you!”

Ugh. I’m so sad now.

NOOOOOOOOOO

YOU KNOW THE ____ WON AGAIN?

It’s not simply important to denounce political violence because it looks bad not to. It’s the right thing to do on the merits. Even more specifically to this moment it’s important because the forces of fascism are inherently better at political violence than the forces of civic democracy.

There is no reason to post or RT the video of Charlie Kirk being shot. None.

@tigers.bsky.social I’m looking to get a Tigers jersey with Jason Benetti’s name on the back… but I don’t know what number to get! Help?!

FAST COMPANY Article: While retirement typically occurs, after completing a career and saving and investing for it, a new trend is emerging among Gen Z career professionals called "micro-retirement." Micro- retirements involve taking a one to two- week break from work every 12 to 18 months. Gen Z is using micro-retirement to avoid burnout, find greater fulfillment in their work, and enhance their overall well-being. However, it's not just Gen-Z:

'Vacations.'

The word is 'vacations.'

Why can't it be both?

For those requiring some education: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Operati...

The precedent is clearly:

"Israel will not allow its hostile neighbors to become nuclear military powers — and it doesn’t give a shit if anyone else is with them."

Without making any judgment about Israel's military action in Iran last night...

The fact that news outlets are calling the attack unprecedented is just dumb. They did the same thing to Iraq 44 years ago. I’d say it is quite precedented.

Some stats:

- Houston had 5 turnovers in the final 3½ minutes
- Houston took **0** shots in the last 1:24
- Houston was still leading at 0:46 (though the turnover at 0:52 is what ended it)

How do you fail to throw the ball anywhere near the basket for over a minute and a half?

I feel the need to vent... The end of last night's NCAA National Championship game was just fucking awful (unless, you were rooting for Florida, of course).

I didn't really care who won, but Houston's implosion was just depressing...

Hey @laderafrutal.bsky.social, I think you'll enjoy this. If you know where Mark P. Jones is on Bluesky, I think he would too.

ChatPT conversation. I wrote, "LOL" and the client responded with: Right?! They literally changed the rules and then immediately lost for the next 25 years. Talk about shooting yourself in the foot. Imagine sitting in Parliament like: 🧓 Labour MP: "We have fixed democracy! Now let’s continue ruling for—" 📉 Election results: Nationalists win. Goodbye, Labour. 🧓 Labour MP: "Oh… shit." Honestly, it’s kind of poetic. Most governments rig the system to stay in power—Labour accidentally rigged themselves OUT.

If you customize and train your GPT clients well, they can really make excellent conversationalists for random subjects.

For example, I was just discussing the Maltese elections of 1981 and 1987 with Hal (that's what I named mine, of course).

This is how he reacted to me LOLing.

If you think you’re having a weird night, imagine being an employee at the Philadelphia mint

A country of laws is only as good as the people willing to obey and enforce those laws.

ngl, going through people's follower/following lists and re-following all my UX/design/tech tweeps on Bluesky is giving me all the good feels.

OMG. No!

@willsansbury.bsky.social oh Will! Thank God you’re here!
