Congrats to Franjo von Allmen of Switzerland for winning gold in the men's Olympic downhill.
Congrats even more to my Swiss wife who exhibited unbridled joy** at this outcome.

I'm sure this is a delightful account and the "don't forget to lichen subscribe" is amusing, but I have no idea why Bluesky would place this account at the very top of my discovery list.
Is there any sort of algorithm at all?

After all of the other presents were opened this morning, I told my college freshman that I had also gotten him a subscription to @theonion.com and that it would start arriving in a few weeks. (It was like when Ralphie got his BB gun; hopefully he won't shoot his eye out.)

Exactly 81 years ago, my great-uncle Oliver Weissert "celebrated" Christmas by fighting in a skirmish in the small town of Verdenne, Belgium during the Battle of the Bulge. (He was KIA two months later a little bit north of Aachen.)

Happy Wednesgiving* to all who celebrate!
*Wednesgiving is a holiday my family made up a while back that allows my siblings and I to spend part of Thanksgiving week celebrating with my dad and stepmom and another day with my mom and her side of the family.
