If a bin marks your neighborhood on this map, your community district will have rat-proof trash containers and automated side-loading garbage trucks by the end of 2027!

Tough day for rats, good day for New Yorkers.

A share of merch sales will go to the Sandy Hook families, which will be the first time they get any money since they filed this lawsuit eight years ago.

That was a rough game to watch down here in Tampa...
You Canadians play a decent game of Hockey.
Good morning Bluesky.
Say hello to our resident Orca, in front of the Seattle waterfront during a gorgeous PNW sunset. He was traveling with his family and T034s, T037/T037Bs. Those little ones in the pods are always the most playful ones. We love our whales. This photo should be a poster!
Never a problem!
Shorthand can be a pain and a puzzle at the same time. For both writer and reader.
But "thank you" is always appreciated
I can offer you a suspicious glare in your general direction at 3pm and promise to beat you in rock paper scissors should we ever meet on the moors.
BREAKING: In just the 16 months since Trump was reelected, the collective fortune of billionaires has grown by $1.96 trillion.
More than half of that growth comes from just the top 15 billionaires, who alone grew their collective wealth by over $1 trillion.
Dear god. Very, very serious allegations of mass civil rights violations at the State of Florida's Everglades immigration detention center (officially known as "Alligator Alcatraz").
Luckily I have a comic explaining Cable’s whole deal:
As a bonus, to help with the idea, most would shorten it to "50yo"
🪡 thread.
And then, to let readers know they've reached the end, I use 🧵.
🪡 ahem. They will shorten things like "Pre-Hayes Code" to make it fit in one post that's not gonna get broken up like mine here.
Sometimes, this becomes a casual shorthand (and a lot of users have their own shorthand for different things).
For instance, I use 🪡 to show that I'm typing out a whole
No problem!
Bluesky limits each post to only 300 characters. That includes spaces and punctuation. That period? That was my 100th character on this comment.
So, sometimes, especially when users are talking about a subject they expect their audience to be familiar with, they will... Hold on 🪡
"precode" shortens "pre-Hayes Code".
Characters are still a premium on this site.
If I was a Democrat in Congress tomorrow I’m releasing a statement to the press announcing that we are in a national emergency, because the chief executive has lost his grip on reality and cannot do the job, and until he leaves his office, removing him from power will be my sole, overriding focus.
I've been too polite for too long on social media about how cool I actually am. I'm fucking cool. And don't you forget it.
he got everything he ever wanted and he’s fucking miserable
Trump is golfing at Doral today. This is his 3rd Trump property he has visited in 3 days.
These trip add up costing taxpayers millions. Why don’t Republicans cut these trips instead of food assistance for poor families?
critically important toggle; they'll slap this one on stuff that just has, like, queer slogans or pride iconography, because this website's moderation is shit from an ass
People are a little too excited about Iran Lego videos given that (1) they are AI, (2) they are propaganda, and (3) seem to be antisemitic.
women were kept out of meetings and career opportunities at Pixar because John Lasseter was so much of a sex pest that people decided it was easier to simply not have them in the room with him
how many talented women didn’t get a fair chance because one guy couldn’t behave himself?
Want some truth you might not like?
All this Trump shit could be over real quick if white people wanted it to be over.
Explain to me why I’m wrong.
Contrary to public perception a huge % of pregnant teenagers in the 1990s were impregnated by adult men. The younger they were, the larger the average age gap between mother and father was. Fixing teen pregnancy was in part a clampdown on statutory rape. That's what conservatives want to reverse.
