I'm a Dad, son, husband, brother, and uncle. 🏳️⚧️ LGBTQ+ ally 🏳️🌈 IT guy in DFW TX. Always curious, always learning how little I know!
Losing my mind for real, be kind when I'm incomprehensible 🤪
- Hey, did you all notice the "See more like this" & "See less like this" options from the … menu on each post? Is it relatively new, or am I relatively unobservant? Was looking for exactly this content moderation, @bsky.app , well done, and I hope it's a success.
- Know someone making $15/hr ($30k) or less? Send them this.
- Joseph the Swallow and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat!
- The first thing I noticed was how fast this swallow flew. When it landed, I noticed the white cheeks and green back. I was thrilled to realize that it was a Violet-green Swallow. They are stunning! #birds #photography #birdphotography #birding
- Wow! ⤵️ I hope it's as thick as a shovel handle! A burrito even! * Extra garlic & red pepper please
- Obeisance in advance. L3Harris, he's going to scr*w you like Putin did Wagner. Same to all other subcontractors. Don't be stupid, his goal is to bankrupt you & seize your assets for "the country!" Think about it, almost all the Russian defense-related industry is state-owned, b*tches!
- Reposted by Trip the TripGeorgia bans organ donation of someone who died w/o their consent—but Georgia’s 6 week abortion ban is now forcing a brain dead woman to stay alive w/o her consent because she was 9 weeks pregnant when she went brain dead. Even a corpse in Georgia has more rights over its body than do women & girls
- Cheese that Gavin newsom is a tool. Ever being married to ex-wife Kimberly Guilfoyle should have warned us the man's values are little more than skin deep. I mean, how can you ever overlook such a withered black soul! Not a deal breaker for him apparently.
- I need an option to mute posts that have their replies disabled. Most of these posts are people talking to hear their own voice. Don't force me to see their read-only self-promotion. It's simple narcissistic behavior from oblivious people--who have *NO* interest at all in what *YOU* have to say.

- Reposted by Trip the TripRemember that several people asked Pam Bondi during confirmation SPECIFICALLY what she would do on matters pertaining to Qatar (which she did not disclose) or GEO (pertinent to the Baraka arrest). She said she'd consult top career lawyer at DOJ abt recusal. Then she fired that lawyer.

- REPORTER (pushing) What do you say to those claiming you've lost your marbles? TRUMP (ranting derangedly) I haven't lost my marbles! Someone stole them, dammit! It was...Biden... and the Democrat party!
- This author worries teachers will use AI to grade papers. Of course, students are using AI to craft these very same essays. He misses the point that most kids don't know how to use AI to *learn*, only to complete an assignment. Zero critical thinking involved. This is a bigger existential threat!
- Reposted by Trip the TripHouse GOP just unveiled $4 Trillion in tax cuts - overwhelmingly for the wealthy - in a country that already leads the developed world in inequality. Look at where the US stands right now: Top 1%: 20% of income CEO pay: 354x workers Child poverty: 21% And they want to make it worse. On purpose.🧵⬇️
- You post something controversial and then turn replies off after 29? Feels to me like you like to hear your own voice, and can't stand dissenting opinions. You may "maintain your sanity" on Blue sky that way, but your posts become like unwanted ads I can't turn off. Oh, wait a minute... 😂

- Grammy had lots of bird sun-catchers--mostly cardinals, but one of this bird stood out. We finally saw it at our house (in No Va) the following spring, 50+ years ago. Grammy left us in 1993. I hadn't thought of that since shortly after she & Grampy both passed more than 20 years ago. Thanks you! 😊
- They went from unlawfully expelling immigrants from the country to jailing mayors pretty quickly, less than 2 months. 😡
