Look on my tweets, ye mighty, and despair!
When you bring nothing to the discussion table, you aren’t going to get much good discussion here.
No shock. This app has turned my mentions, and others, into mostly hate. But there are a few people worth connecting with

CRAZY how it's easier these days to have a real discussion on X, or threads, than on here.

A small (personal) example of this book’s intellectual dishonesty:

My father-in-law is reading In Covid’s Wake, and excitedly told me he found a passage where I’m quoted. The quote in question is me saying the FBI worked to censor speech on social media.

Huh? When did I say that?!

With a little creativity, USPS could provide:
Bank and insurance services
e-mail addresses for a modest fee. I’d drop Gmail in an instant
Parcel delivery

Please spread the word, I am hoping to finally abandon Twitter, if people like me they should follow me on here. Will use this for written thoughts and will only use Twitter to search for sports clips. If you don't like me keep following me on Twitter

As an individual person, there is never a bad time to criticize a politician. Any politician.
Some folks seem to think that criticizing Democratic politicians is off-limits because the GOP is "worse." I expect nothing from the GOP; they are obviously a part of racists and Nazis. I DO expect something from the political party purporting to represent the "resistance."

One thing I don't like about bluesky, and about social media in general, is that if you're just minding your business being a repulsive piece of garbage and trying to drive engagement by being obnoxious because that's your only viable option, people notice this and treat you like shit. Not fair!

Alt text is incredibly useful for sighted folks too.

* It helps me understand the reference if I don't recognize the image you're posting
* It makes the image searchable
* It gives you many more characters in which to express your rapier wit

Use alt text!
Dammit people, add alt text to your images! So many times I see awesome art or cool comics, but can't repost it, because it's not accessible.

Early on in Madden’s franchise mode you could move your team to Davenport. The perfect place to start a dynasty.
This Bears team is DIFFERENT and on Monday Kevin Warren will announce they are exploring options for a new stadium in Bettendorf, Iowa
i cannot believe they went for a goddamn touchdown

also, these "WAR" values (a) are derived from a statistical model that produces ideologically convenient results that no other open-source model replicates, (b) lack controls for important factors like fundraising and candidate experience, and (c) completely ignore uncertainty in the data. not good!
it is one thing to say "here is what our measurements tell us about the playing field," it is something very different to leap from that to "and here is why we have a better understanding of your specific circumstance and your particular electorate than you, the person who represents the district"

It’s true, that woman also didn’t want to build a school.
That’s the woman who said whatever that guy is saying, 5 minutes ago, but got ignored.

Whoa Rita Moreno before she got famous (from the Fast and the Furious franchise).
Does anyone wanna see a really good Getty image of Rita Moreno and Sam The Eagle having dinner in 1979?

Wait, could it be possible that Matty just isn’t that bright?
This Yglesias piece in the NYT is horrifically bad. Almost every "fact" it cites is provably false. At best it is cocktail party banter from a pundit who knows nothing of energy. At worst, it was cut/paste from oil industry talking points. So, a rebuttal: www.nytimes.com/2025/12/18/o...
Opinion | Obama Supported It. The Left in Canada and Norway Does. Why Don’t Democrats?
