We would all prefer the structural engineer who would make the building fireproof, but I’m still going to vote for the fireman over the fire.

Look, I've voted in every midterm and presidential election since 1990, the first year I was eligible. I wish there was a president I wanted to vote for this year, but I sure as hell want to vote against Project 2025.

Personally I don’t know if something that’s completely unnecessary and has no societal benefit can be described as having “electricity needs” tbh

MOUNTAIN VIEW, Calif. (AP) — Google falling short of important climate target, cites electricity needs of AI.

Well this seems like a great day to log off and read a book.

How I introduce myself in an icebreaker session

Fountain pen sky, I have not yet tried any shimmer inks! What are the most interesting ones? I'll probably order 3 or 4 samples.

It can be fun when found objects tell a story, but less fun when the story is "ate plastic; threw up".

One day I will remember to eat a granola bar BEFORE I brush my teeth in the evening. Today was not that day.

Good morning Bluesky, where are my glasses?

Hey Bird Sky, any advice for how to attract more chickadees to my feeder? The current offerings are safflower seed and thistle seed. I hear them around my house and I've seen them at the feeder a couple of times, but they don't stop in regularly.

I am a staunch Democrat, and will vote such. But: if I ever meet the motherfuckers running their spamcannon SMS campaign, I will rip their fucking lungs out through their assholes.

Fuck airlines and their shitty policies.

It's interesting that businesses with a drive through and inside ordering always leave the inside short staffed. And by "interesting" I mean "incredibly frustrating".

Bitcoin consumes about 2.5% of US electricity, about the same as all residential cooling. An article decrying *that* electricity usage as a personal moral failing would be much less tone deaf.
