Strong possibility he is both lying and ignorant.

I have been reliably informed that time keeps on slipping - slipping - into the future.

True definition of horror! Three puppers and I only have two hands to give scratches!

Babylon 5 missed the opportunity to have Lenier say "Danger Captain Sheridan! Danger! Danger!" at least once.

If you see this, quote with a robot that isn't from "Star Wars", "Star Trek", "Doctor Who", or "Transformers".

Huge thank you to the comedians, musicians, artists and writers who are just as mad and bewildered as the rest of us but are still doing their best to make life worth living for everyone.

All true. I remember it well. Our neighborhood had an eclectic mix of standard bag candy, a couple full size bar houses, and a few that gave out the most amazing baked goods.

That 8yo has an excellent idea!

Brian Heaton @geekdownrange.bsky.social · 2d

This needs to be a thing!

Ok, now I want taco treating to be an actual thing.

Becky Hammer @beckyhammer.bsky.social · 3d

My 8yo told me she had a dream that she went "taco treating," which is where you go door to door and people give you tacos

Hey, so as a veteran and incident responder I need to warn you to pay attention to something in America.

The human brain is resilient. While you're watching kids get dragged away from the parents and people being beaten in the streets, you're accumulating trauma but also being desensitized.

Twas the daily announcement highly nuanced and detailed?

"Halligan had to text a journalist to protect the government" has a very “It became necessary to destroy the town to save it” ring to it.

No hacking the launch mainframe! There could be a lot more fire than intended. 😜🤣

Will they have to change all of the stationary and signs to "Consumer Financial Punishment Bureau?"

Honestly at some point you have to start doing psyops with these people:

Have Obama announce that he will seek a third term tomorrow. Then watch all the con law “scholars” and Fix News MELT DOWN trying to explain why he can’t but Trump can. (It’s like Newsom taking over his social media persona)

Aaron Rupar @atrupar.com · 6d

Q: One theory on how you might try to serve a 3rd term is that you could run at the vice president

TRUMP: Yeah, I'd be allowed to do that. But I would rule that out because it's too cute.

If folks try to tell you off via bsky, they're going to find out your typing is unaffected. I shall bring snacks to watch the festivities.

I'm very glad the incidents are better understood and treatable.

Brian Heaton @geekdownrange.bsky.social · 6d

For a minute there, I thought you'd been replaced by a pod person. 😜🤣

I understand the logic, as well as, decry the additional expense of undoing this travesty. I think the value of wiping out all of his changes to the Whitehouse complex sends both a domestic and international message that needs to be sent and is worth the monetary cost.
