This app rules if just for this purpose only. The only label I've encountered so far is 20+ Blocks. Among my 20+ accounts labeled is @minakimes.bsky.social.

What is wrong with people. Mina's the greatest.
this labeler tells you a bunch of useful things but the killer app is the flag for if somebody’s caught 20+ blocks in a 24-hour period and I never want to be without it again

My 50 year obsession with early British Prog Rock took a possibly fatal blow today.
Oh no. Oh dear. Fine, Phil wins.

This hit me like a brick wall moving at F1 speeds.

The Panthers end their (regular) season at Raymond James. If it comes to it, I'll take Baker over Bryce in that situation.

My own beliefs are complicated but I savor the thought that Rob is somehow aware that Trump has severely damaged himself today with his base and representatives that have to explain him to the folks back home.

And have a good ghost laugh about it.

what a confusing time to be a piece of shit

Fascinating thread on agricultural lighting that may possibly explain why my memory is so poor. Inadvertent fungicide consumption.
Kinda sorta?

There were some advances in LED tech ~10-20 years ago that made them cheap enough for plants. Before that, greenhouses & indoor weed growers both used high pressure sodium lamps.

Bulgaria showing us the way. Those Eastern Europeans everyone keeps slagging are braver than the American people. They had finally had enough of the corruption.

There is a school of thought where the best hope for the Democratic Party is to leave its abusive relationship with AIPAC and take the Mamdani approach to younger voters. Goldman is the shining star of the NY/Clinton/Schumer/Jeffries wing, on all the shows. He's vulnerable in NYC.

Tommy Tuberville says things George Wallace wouldn’t have. There’s no code language to decipher. He puts the hate on a plate.

Is this the New Grinch, the one who's working out, doing shoots for Walmart and collabbing with an all-growed-up Cindy Lou Who?
just overheard a conversation straight out of the chair company

lady 1: “i’m gonna go get the grinch meal.”
lady 2: “the what?”
lady 1: “the grinch meal. they have a new grinch meal at mcdonald’s.”

Sunday noon slot NFL games in Huntsville, AL market:

CBS, Jacksonville Jags at Tennessee Titans.

FOX, Atlanta Falcons at NY Jets.

Y'all suck for making the NFL Sunday Ticket so necessary.

In 1966, Dad took my brother, just 9, and me a jumpy 11YO, to Legion Field to see the Iron Bowl. It was freezing. Dad pointed out Bear (by his fedora) and Shug Jordan on the other side. Kenny Stabler made a 63 yd. TD pass to Ray Perkins just before the half to deafening cheers. 31-0. Cheers Dad. RIP

I saw my first concert in 1970 at a National Guard Armory in Dothan, AL by a band that had one extremely minor hit, "Stoned Cowboy" that barely charted. It had a thrown-together-at-the-last-minute vibe that this article brought back to life. I LOLd at several places. Just an amazing rabbit hole.

One more reason to strongly dislike Sark and the Longhorns is that they're forcing me to root for A&M. Long memory here in Bama. We haven't gotten over Manziel yet.

Sam never gave up and that's who saved Middle Earth, not Frodo nor Sméagol.
One of the reasons i love tolkien is the theme that despair is an enemy

and it makes clear you don’t need to have constant hope, you can get by with grim determination or spite but never despair
You can be as terrified or nonplussed or unperturbed as you like; the sun will still rise tomorrow & the rent will still be due on the 31st. The world has no romantic narratives for its fate except those we invent, because the world does not die. That is our privilege.
