Makes a lot of sense, but kind of surprised there seemed to be less influence from the years growing up in Ohio and Maryland before moving to Michigan

Typical Seattle smoke season struggle: will going for my usual afternoon walk be a net benefit for me bc I get to get away from my desk for a bit, stretch my legs, and decompress? Or will it be a net harm for me because [gesture at the sky]

Had a hard time deciding on my donation amount for the @newap-georgia.bsky.social www.edsbscharitybowl.com this year. Decided to take it back to the player that made me fall in love with college football: $107.45 for Denard Robinson's 10,745 total career rushing+passing yards at Michigan

Here's the ICE agent "defending himself" by shooting into the driver's side window of a car that's pulling *away* from him. Put this photo on the front page of every newspaper in America.

Just watched the new Knives Out and I think it's really important you know that the scene in the Seminary's Gym is filmed in the same place Rick Astley filmed the music video for Never Gonna Give You Up. I saw the window tracery and immediately made my friends pause the film so I could tell them.

Ok, as 2024 comes to a close, I want to mention something I'm proud of: biking over 2200 miles this year. Back in January i had set a (unknowingly ambitious) goal of 50 miles a week over that whole year. That would have been 2600. I fell a bit short, but still very proud of the effort

This Google Gemini ad for the Olympics is so bleak. A heartwarming story about writing an Olympian about a kids dream to be like them but then you... have the AI write the letter? The personal connection is the only important part! You take that out and the letter is meaningless... ugh
