What perfect album came out when you were 16?

Perfect no, but good:

Pyromania — Def Leppard (January 1983)
Violent Femmes —Violent Femmes (June 1983)
Synchronicity — The Police (June 1983)

…and two interesting debut albums:

Kill 'Em All — Metallica (July 1983)
Murmur — R.E.M. (April 1983)
What perfect album came out when you were 16?

There were three!

I wonder if Bluesky changed its recommendation algorithm recently. For a long while, I’d managed to curate a mostly sports- and #scape -free feed, but suddenly that’s all I see.

Amphiboles demonstrate that the English Language does not have an associative property

“I’ll have a half baked chicken” can be ambiguous (also: tasty)
Word of the Day: AMPHIBOLY - a sentence or phrase that can be interpreted in more than one way. ‘She is a lesbian vampire killer’ could mean she is a lesbian who kills vampires, she is a killer of lesbian vampires, or she is a lesbian vampire who kills.

Want to know how good Bluesky’s filters and recommendations are? I’m friends with both @wademinter.com and @benmoser.bsky.social and I’ve still achieved a 99% sports-free feed

This is a fantastic point that I used to make when I worked in software, to not much avail.

Want a social media example? Why not reverse the word “following” and its value? “Following 200” sounds so much more natural than “200 Following”.

I took what I learned from yesterday and tried again, this time using a different generator :

I think @wademinter.com is trying to start one of those “how many of these places have you visited” phishing posts.
Hayley and the UNC women's hockey team got sent the Liberty University campus rules prior to playing the ACCHL fall tournament there, and . . . there are some doozies in there, let me tell you.

Hey, @wademinter.com :

I turned on the feature that shows me people’s classifications (sorcerer, druid, &c &c) based on one of your earlier explainers. Essentially the BlueSky UI is to follow an account. I want to turn it off but there’s nothing in my friend list. What should I do?

Bluesky now has over 10 million users, and I was #541,768!

“Just go to the DMV and get a free ID, then you can vote. How can you disagree with that?”
'It could be all day:' Long wait times at the DMV are plaguing drivers across the state
At the DMV on Avent Ferry Road Tuesday, people are so desperate to get in that some are camping out, often waiting all day for multiple days, only to be turned away.

Weirdly, I think Mr Trump has acquired some sort of lisp during the live Twitter rant that’s going on now.
