I figured that was the spot. Weird location if you ask me.

Plus right in the middle of a neighborhood.

Damn. Right in the middle of the neighborhood?

J Leep @jleep86.blacksky.app · 4h

Where exactly?

Behind the Safeway?

I thought this was you.

I was asking myself "why he cut his head off in his own pic?"

Hey Nike. Give this brother some modeling gigs. He can do pushup too. 🤣

Additional dumbasses.

Dumbasses.

Another dumbass.

She lost because she is a woman.

It isn't a coincidence that trump lost to a man but beat two women.

Two women that are smarter AND more accomplished than he is.

"I wrote down in my goal book that I want to become a 100m and 200m world champion, and then a 4x100m champion again.”

Melissa Jefferson-Wooden had more than a breakout year in 2025.

The American spoke to @liamtharme.bsky.social about it.

twice a year the entire U.S. press becomes a marketing extension of a single billionaire-owned retailer, and nobody in any position of editorial power thinks it's weird or gross

PBS has to crowdfund and host auctions to stay afloat, but ICE got $45BN just for new detention centers? 😵‍💫

Well these are now scenes that play out in America as well.

Why? trump.

Everything he touches dies.
That is who he is.

This is out of hand. These agents are there to cause trouble and violence, not to keep people safe. These are the scenes that play out in war torn, destitute countries - not America.

Because it feels relevant as we continue to evaluate the media and our representatives’ statements, my favorite way to identify the active vs. passive voice.

A post by Rebecca Johnson:
“I finally learned how to teach my guys to ID the passive voice. If you can insert "by zombies" after the verb, you have passive voice.”

A tumblr respond from mightymur:
“The final, brilliant word on passive voice.
"She was killed [by zombies.]"<--passive
"Zombies killed [by zombies] her." <-- active”

It sounds like Rudy should be the CEO of Bluesky.

He and his group have a much better vision for where this can go then those currently in charge.

Rudy wants revolution. @rude1.blacksky.team · 1d

Using AJ Link as an example, his current situation is that Bluesky, the Barnes & Nobles of atproto have banned him from their stores and essentially blackballed him from the publishing industry.

Fortunately for AJ Link, we've kept all his manuscripts safe and sound right where he left them. 3/11
