Connor Tearney @ctearney.bsky.social · 23/07/2026Just as I was complaining about Sabovic taking the corner instead of Torres, he goes and plays a perfect ball for the assist. (That was before the smoke monster came and carried off Stuver) 100
Connor Tearney @ctearney.bsky.social · 27/04/2026Could never look at SNES madden the same after my friend got a Playstation. My mind could not handle the leap from this 1110
Connor Tearney @ctearney.bsky.social · 15/03/2026We (@fletcheredington.bsky.social) have gone so far online that we’re offline. Made it to the Bluesky / Onion party at SXSW. @bencollins.bsky.social is ducking us 141
Connor Tearney @ctearney.bsky.social · 04/02/2026Mistborn Secret History by Brandon Sanderson Was kinda skeptical of our boy coming back from the dead but I enjoyed how Sanderson went about it. Plus bringing in the different Cosmere elements and tying it to the bigger universe is very cool 000
Connor Tearney @ctearney.bsky.social · 04/02/2026A Court of Thorns and Roses by Sarah J. Maas If everyone else jumped off a bridge, I probably would, too. Beauty and the beast with the evil tri wizard tournament thrown in. Personally, I’m on Team Rhys. Will probably keep reading the series! 100
Connor Tearney @ctearney.bsky.social · 04/02/2026Books I Read, 2026 Edition: This is How You Lose the Time War by Amal El-Mohtar and Max Gladstone. Kinda unlike anything I’d ever read. Really beautiful writing. And it’s fairly short! Highly recommend. 110
Connor Tearney @ctearney.bsky.social · 25/01/2026I kinda think bluesky's trending topics algorithm might need a bit of an adjustment 010
Connor Tearney @ctearney.bsky.social · 26/12/2025Book 12: Mistborn - The Bands of Mourning Fun way to open the world back up to new possibilities. Really liked the second half and gonna have to go pick up the Secret History. (And at least I hit 12! Probably read more than 12 Bluesky posts) 000
Connor Tearney @ctearney.bsky.social · 21/10/2025Book 11: The Subtle Art of Not Giving a F*ck by Mark Manson. Really not all that different than “The Let Them Theory” from above, but I’d say that this one is better written and a more enjoyable read. (In my head I initially thought the author was Marc Maron, feels like it works both ways) 100
Connor Tearney @ctearney.bsky.social · 18/10/2025Was confronted by an orange on my walk. Paid the toll of 72 scritches. 040
Connor Tearney @ctearney.bsky.social · 14/10/2025I have gotten 5 fundraising texts from Janet Mills today alone. (And have immediately blocked everyone, yet they persist - all different numbers). If anything, this tells me you don’t understand the current media environment and are just going to pay consultants to run a campaign with poor outreach 120
Connor Tearney @ctearney.bsky.social · 13/10/2025Book 10: Shadows of Self by Brandon Sanderson (middle trilogy in the Mistborn series). Mostly excited for how this seems to set-up the next book with some bigger foes and ideas. 2nd half of the book was really fun. 200
Connor Tearney @ctearney.bsky.social · 13/10/2025Book 9: The Sirens’ Call by @chrislhayes.bsky.social. I really wish there was a way for everyone to understand the message of this book because I think it’s a fundamental tenet for *gestures at everything* Thinking of attention as a quantifiable/limited resource and not just a skill or general idea 312412
Connor Tearney @ctearney.bsky.social · 10/09/2025Our 14 team FF league only has 4 bench spots, meaning I am going to have sacrifice my incredibly sophomoric team name unless Kirk, London, or a mystery 3rd player are ruled out for Week 2, so I can pick up a kicker. 010
Connor Tearney @ctearney.bsky.social · 11/08/2025Typed this up last night but didn’t feel like editing it down to fit in the character limit. (I do really wonder what percent of adults know how many Supreme Court justices there are) 070
Connor Tearney @ctearney.bsky.social · 31/07/2025Have I moved past caring about pre-season football? Yes. Does knowing that Trey Lance will likely get multiple series pull me right back in? Also yes. 010
Connor Tearney @ctearney.bsky.social · 24/07/2025Most importantly I see you have chosen the correct R Studio color scheme 020
Connor Tearney @ctearney.bsky.social · 09/07/2025This shouldn't surprise anyone, but Austin and San Jose just played another ridiculous game (with Austin stealing it in PKs). STU is a beast. 160
Connor Tearney @ctearney.bsky.social · 04/06/2025Book 7: Rejection by Tony Tulathimutte. Absolutely insane. Terminally online. Graphically sexual. I give it my highest recommendation. The fact that you are on Bluesky means you will get this book. The fact that you are on Bluesky means you will likely find something to hate with this book. 110
Connor Tearney @ctearney.bsky.social · 14/04/2025Book 6: Abundance by Ezra Klein and Derek Thompson. I’m hopeful that politicians and future leaders will adopt more of this mindset because I think it’s imperative that we come up with the ability to both message and build a better future. 110

Connor Tearney @ctearney.bsky.social · 03/04/2025Chris, the WSJ suggested stability, surely these numbers you’ve posted must be for something else. Perhaps it’s actually an increase in golden trump statues other countries are building. (Common mixup) 050
Connor Tearney @ctearney.bsky.social · 25/03/2025Ten team fantasy baseball league squad (h2h categories). We’re banking on breakouts, so good chance we’re either first or last. 120
Connor Tearney @ctearney.bsky.social · 19/03/2025Book 5: Not as riveting as the original trilogy, but I liked seeing the world many years later (and the final act is quite entertaining). (Also probably a bit distracted by world events to get fully sucked in) 210
Connor Tearney @ctearney.bsky.social · 18/02/2025Book 4: The Let Them Theory by Mel Robins As always, everyone could use therapy. “Let Them” and “Let Me” really boils it down to the basics, and it may sound overly simple, but if you can apply it, it definitely works. 221
Connor Tearney @ctearney.bsky.social · 14/02/2025I had no idea what I was doing but it actually felt quite therapeutic to take some time and put things together myself (while specifically not looking at news). End result, not terrible! 140
Connor Tearney @ctearney.bsky.social · 06/02/2025Book 3: How to Do Nothing - Resisting the Attention Economy by Jenny Odell. I wish everyone would read this book. 120
Connor Tearney @ctearney.bsky.social · 29/01/2025Book 2: Prophet - a fantastically creative sci-fi element to go with two great main characters (and a handful of fun side characters). A fun ride the whole way through with a gut punch of a climax. 120
Connor Tearney @ctearney.bsky.social · 22/01/20252025 book thread: Character Limit - a depressing read as you realize an insecure man child with no impulse control now holds giant influence over the federal government. (Full of excellent writing and reporting, of course) 230
Connor Tearney @ctearney.bsky.social · 29/12/2024Google AI with no understanding of the human psyche. (Can’t even distinguish between “clapping the hands” and “clapping your hands” smh) 010
Connor Tearney @ctearney.bsky.social · 09/12/2024Checking on my best ball teams and saw a team currently 30 points short of advancing but noticed it had a fair chunk of minutes left. A pleasant surprise to see who was left! (if these teams re-discover defense tonight I will be incensed) 000
Connor Tearney @ctearney.bsky.social · 07/12/2024A story in 4 parts (aka the beginning of me asking how I suddenly gained 10 lbs) 010
