Everyone can skeet what they want, but I’m probably going to curate my feed quite a bit differently over here. I love everyone, but if your skeets aren’t the vibe I want, I’m going to mute you. I still love you, feel free to DM.

One thing I’m not gonna do, is add news folks to my feed. So Rupar and Acyn…not gonna have y’all Debbie Downer my feed 😂

Phil Lewis, you can stay.

Springsteen was dumb and earnest like a golden retriever, but that’s not *cool*.

There have to be like 1000 musicians who were active during this time cooler than Bob Dylan and Bruce Springsteen. Dylan was pretentious, not cool, right?

I’m a little too young, isn’t Springsteen’s whole thing that he’s *not* cool?

Oh Brian, you poor sweet summer child.

A post I sent a month ago that says “I don't think we need this many Peyton Manning commercials,” and a reply I sent that says “I might be at my Kelce capacity too. Let's spread things out a little.”

“I’ll declare war on you if you don’t give me the peace prize” is an incredible bit

He’s already in the SEC but I guess he’d also be a good fit in the ACC if the Auburn job opens

Jon Sumerall hates his team in a win. Get him in the SEC now

An excuse to post this one

Screenshot of a @kliakos.com post that says “Loling at the bar tv seeing the Birds are 9-2 cause following all my Philly friends here I literally thought they were 0-whatever,” and then a repost, also from @kliakos.com that says “Coach looks like a real dickhead I get it.”

Interesting

Ending homelessness is estimated to cost between $9.6 billion and $30 billion per year to provide housing and services in the U.S., with some analyses suggesting it could cost more depending on the timeframe and definition of "ending" it. For context, the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) in 2020 cited a one-time $20 billion cost, though this figure has been updated by more recent estimates of ongoing annual needs.

Kansas might be the bridge to far for me

Because we love burned up cities and hate clean water and electricity. My favorite thing is getting cut up by shards of glass from all the windows we break.

Saying “go birds” every time the Anaheim ducks score would be fun for a few minutes

Brian @sirfahrenheit.bsky.social · 10h

I wonder if it would make eagles fans mad if we all just started saying “go birds” for every bird mascot team.

Autism antibodies are stored in the foreskin.

Besides linking Tylenol in pregnant women to autism, RFK Jr. now says circumcision is part of the reason why kids are autistic.

"Children who are circumcised early have double the rate of autism, and it's highly likely because they're given Tylenol. None of this is positive..."

"Hell Is a World Without You," (2024)

No for real, almost this exact thing happening a few decades prior is what inspired that book. Even happens to be set in Central PA tbh

Juliette Rihl @julietterihl.bsky.social · 20h

I don’t usually cover breaking news, but this story is truly wild.

A pastor in central PA brought an AR-15 to church and pointed it at people during his sermon. Gun safety experts and internet commentators are, predictably, not happy!

I’m just thinking about how these student loans aren’t getting paid back if I die

Bro, I’m going to need you to start using the code phrases

Express Scripts wants pre authorization for my long acting insulin for the 3rd time in 2 years, Sallie Mae probably would have something to say about that if they knew.

Brian @sirfahrenheit.bsky.social · 21h

Y’all think our student loan servicers know how much we’re getting charged for healthcare insurance and how little we get out of it? Have to think they wouldn’t care for that.
