Love this. My personal least favorite kind of critique is when someone points out you’ve done something suboptimal without considering whether you may have had good reasons, like balancing competing interests, or working within constraints.

Received my first sponsorship offer from a personal injury law firm and I think this means my little corner of the advertising business has finally arrived. Think of who we can get now — Chia Pet, the Foreman Grill, “HEAD ON — APPLY DIRECTLY TO THE FOREHEAD.”

The phrase I would like to smack out of the mouth of every sports commentator is “like we talked about” and all its permutations. Nobody cares if you mentioned this earlier in the broadcast or predicted it or whatever. We probably weren’t listening then and it doesn’t matter now anyway. Move on.

Free NFL halftime show idea: the Normal People Bowl. Recruit 22 people ages 30-50 who meet minimal physical requirements for safety but are otherwise as physically average as possible. Coach them up to play a single series in full pads, film it like a normal game. Make sure they sign waivers.

Wholesome is among my "only cancel in the event of actual bankruptcy" podcasts because listening to @benjaminahr.mobi @cutfortime.bsky.social and @aragusea.bsky.social just talking about delightful things actively pushes back against the otherwise constant stream of terribleness in the world.

It’s really not an overstatement to say that Dolly’s death is to East Tennessee and greater Appalachia as QEII’s death was to the UK. And Dolly was vastly less polarizing. If she were to lie in state at Dollywood, the line would stretch into North Carolina.

A thought spun off of an @aragusea.bsky.social video: using an LLM to write means throwing some amount of thought in the garbage. The human thinks less than they otherwise would have, and the computer still doesn't think at all.

I'd guess this too but only 4/15 were on GH or an analog. But researchers may have gotten a better read if they'd asked current and PRIOR use. Might narrow it down. Also not noted in the article GLP-1 use. Getting more common in that group to try and counter some of these bad effects

If you post survey data, news articles, etc. without a link back to the source whenever possible, you are weakening the informational chain of custody and making it harder for other people to confirm that they're seeing accurate information. This holds even if you're mad at whatever it is.

Really coming into fruition, one of my “Dutch modernist” aquascapes! In time the grassy vallisneria in the back corner should grow much longer and kinda drape over the whole thing a bit, creating a more dappled light effect on the carpets underneath. And the red lily will get bigger.

Was reading a news story about how opioid deaths are down in Knox County and I can’t stop thinking about this man’s incredible logical journey.
Guy on Facebook: “Just because it doesn't make the news doesn't mean its down..Go watch Burger King on merchants..” I reply: “Buddy, the news is that it is down. It is down, and that empirical reality made the news. The fact that people still OD at a Burger King can easily coexist with this other fact.”
