- Putting the record straight 😂
- Well, I'll give you this one since I get to hear how to correctly pronounce you last name. Next ad gets a block. What's that even doing on Bluesky?
- i am fascinated by the editorial choice to give the last word to a disbarred charlatan pushing a discredited constitutional theory www.nytimes.com/2025/05/14/u...
- Not going to read it all, but if the Solicitor General is pushing the theory in front of SCOTUS, then in that sense it is no longer fringe.
- not sure how i can be expected to focus on anything else today now that i've seen the promo photo from the Madden movie with Christian Bale as Al Davis and Nicolas Cage as John Madden
- The movie could never top this concept photo. It's all there in one frame.
- RFK as an aside testifies to House Approps: “Ultraprocessed food is a genocide on the American Indian.” (as he answers a question about the Indian Health Service.)

- "I don’t think people should be taking ... medical advice from me.” Does "people" include CDC, CMS, FDA, and NIH? Because giving not just advice, but orders, to all these agencies, is your damned job description. If you're not qualified, resign. www.hhs.gov/careers/work...
- Breaking character: Just got a very funny fake call. Someone pretending to be ICE, asking for personal information. It's weird...things like this don't jump out as fake so much if they involve ICE since ICE is so insane. I wonder if we will see a lot of scams like this. Anybody else heard of one?
- Sounds perfect, for instance ICE calling checking on your bank account info. Fail to cooperate you could conceivably find yourself in a concrete cell for a couple of weeks while they "check you out". ICE has unlimited powers to arrest people, no accountability, and you have to fix it, not them.
- Thanks. Even if it is NewsNation, impersonating a reputable media outlet, still I haven't seen this anywhere else. Scam opportunities basically limitless.
- The Knicks are one win away from their first conference finals appearance in 25 years‼️
- [Not loaded yet]
- Looking up old Knicks rosters (Walt Bellamy, Howard Komives, Willis Reed, etc era) I discovered that Dick Barnett, a fixture of those teams, had just passed away two weeks ago. He had an admirable life post-Bball as an educator, film maker and public advocate. now.fordham.edu/fordham-maga...
- NY Times. Any comment by me would simply detract from its perfection.
- I love crows. So smart.
- I would leave large plastic trash bags outside for pickup. I noticed chicken bones and small pieces of food had been plucked out from the inside through small holes. Finally, I caught several black birds that had learned what the bags meant and how to navigate through them. Now I use bins only.
- unduly impressed with myself for generating a 3d plot
- I teach the kids how to do this at the end of a computational software course (MATLAB). I'm often exclaiming "Whoa!", "Wow!" at what comes up. I ask them "How many of you were thinking 'Whoa!' when that came up?". "Meh" is more like it. I think they're a little jaded.
