On other socials people on the upper Tx coast are spending a lot more energy screaming at the forecasters for not being able to say exactly where it’s going to go than they’re spending getting ready in case it goes to them 🙄

Mark Cavendish comparing the “what’s next” feeling of breaking the Tour de France all time stage wins record with how he felt when he finished Final Fantasy XI on PlayStation is oddly touching.

On the occasion of the 40th anniversary of “Beverly Hills Cop” I would like to thank Eddie Murphy for gifting me with “I am not listening to Jeffrey,” a line matched for usefulness only by “I do not think it means what you think it means.”

Best letter to editor award goes to one Britt D. Davis, who writes to @houstonchron.bsky.social “I am a fully sentient 91-year-old great-grandfather & as in a Monty Python skit, in response to calls for President Joe Biden to step down from the presidential race, I fart in your general direction.”

Or, save it, because one day you might meet a giant who needs a sweater, and you will have one, and it will be just like the Princess Bride and you will be so happy!

I know all these SCOTUS rulings are horrible. I can vaguely imagine, though, a future where Congress actually does its job. Write a frigging law to address air pollution. Pass immigration reform. Impeach an insurrectionist president. I know it’s a fantasy, but it’s their actual job.

They had to be loud because the entire point was to be heard by the bullies they were begging not to hurt them. Quiet capitulation isn’t what those people are looking for; it’s heads on the pike to scare everyone else.

Tractor Supply’s killing its DEI programs is cowardly and wrong. Killing its climate goals is suicidal.

Yes and they built the Grand Parkway specifically to attract development- highway first. It’s so frustrating.

We have light-colored bamboo floors, and everyone who comes in asks us if we want them to take off their shoes. It’s quite remarkable. (For the record, we don’t care).

Ironic that this MAGA Christian nationalist’s response is “if you don’t like it don’t look at it,” when she and her kind refuse to do that when it comes to anything whatsoever they don’t like.

Question about how @bsky.app works: in my feeds, I often see 2 linked posts, the first of which is a reply to some other post, and the second of which is a reply to the reply. So I’m seeing a snippet of a thread- not the whole thread, and not an isolated reply. Can I change this in a user pref?

Today’s hot take: cryptocurrency is a non-thing of no actual value whose consumption of real resources endangers real people. If it were a Doctor Who story we’d call it a satire.

That’s what I meant. Sometimes I think “am I a chump?” Then I think, they could be acting in bad faith, but I’m acting in good faith. And it’s food.
