B Beshoar @bbeshoar.bsky.social · 30/09/2026Jasmine Crockett continues to diminish herself in my eyes. Her refusal to endorse Talarico is petty, peevish, and embarrassing. 230

B Beshoar @bbeshoar.bsky.social · 11/07/2026Chicken curry, Yemeni style, as I learned to make it from the cooks in the geophysical exploration camp in Saudi in 1981-2.

B Beshoar @bbeshoar.bsky.social · 13/08/2025It's ridiculous. The only apparent use for this vast accumulation of data is to sell us stuff. Really important data about things like imminent climate collapse or deadly pandemics is either suppressed or dismissed as nonsense. 171
