i always forget to turn off the automatic captions before i put figure skating on tv and this time it paid off because it misheard "change-foot combo spin" as "change-foot compost bin"

Sometimes, because your wife likes them to match, you'll come downstairs in the morning to the pup wearing her very own lavender women's health scrubs.

OK, I can stay awake for junior men and that's probably it. Probably. I hope they fix the geoblocking issue by tomorrow so I can watch the junior women on my big TV. #JGPFigure #JGPF

TIme for the #JGPF pairs short program! Very annoying that I have to use a VPN to watch this despite Peacock not deigning to show it in the US. Good luck, kids! This may be all I watch tonight or I might make it through the junior men, idk #JGPFigure

Yeah, I can only see the junior streams with a VPN, which is fucking obnoxious because Peacock isn't showing them either. #GPFinal #GPF #figureskating
I don't know who needs to hear this, but the #GPFinal streams are up on the ISU Youtube channel. They might be geoblocked for you, I can only see them with VPN.

Several questions: Will the Swedish Olympic Committee let them go? Does Milla have citizenship? Is her shoulder OK? ⛸️
🇸🇪 The Swedish federation have announced that Sweden have now picked up an Olympic quota in Ice Dance after one of the other country’s quotas was returned. Sweden have never been represented at the Olympics in ice dance before.

This has been my whole freaking life. Every time Republicans take power people are like goddamit this is awful, they get voted out, then two years later people are like hmmm Republicans again
Cosmically funny that, the American public has had less than a year of uncut republican governance, and they’ve decided that they absolutely hate this shit, spit it out

This is stunningly good reporting by two bylined reporters and six credited researchers, and it's undermined throughout by links to an "Ask the Post AI" that delivers insipid answers to its own contrived prompts under the guise of "More context on this article"

Just imagining how much better it would be if ALL news stories about vaccine-preventable illnesses were illustrated with pictures of people with the disease, not pictures of needle injections. If you must show something that people will find scary & unpleasant, make it the disease, not the cure.
I'm so tired of measles.
I'm also tired of people using needle shots on stories like this.

Exciting news: my union @pen-guild.bsky.social won our fight to hold management accountable for rolling out AI tools with no notice & for failing to hold the bots to the same standards all of us humans must follow — in violation of the contract they agreed to. A neutral arbiter said we were right!
