See if you can deduce what this madness translates to as you listen to the second episode of the Answer for It! Podcast (I don't remember): answer-for-it.captivate.fm

Brat summer is a thing of the past -- 2025 is officially Mr. Bean summer. Changing into our swimsuits without removing our underwear. Getting our heads stuck in turkeys. Feuding with three-wheeled cars. Cutting the hair of strangers. Insulting the Queen.

Terry Pratchett & Rob Wilkins @terryandrob.bsky.social · 12/03/2025
Shortly before he died, Terry Pratchett assured me that, if there is an afterlife, he would give me a ring and let me know. That was ten years ago - and still no call. 
 
From which, incidentally, I draw no firm conclusions. What if there was an afterlife, but with no phone signal? 
 
But of course there is one place where Terry indisputably lives on: in the pages of his books and in the minds of the millions of readers around the world who turn those pages and continue to find them funny and true. 
 
For, while his words live on, so does Terry, and that will be the case, no question, not just for this one decade so quickly gone, but for many further decades to come. 
 
So let me join Lyn and Rhianna in raising a glass today to the magical persistence of books and to Sir Terry; gone but still so very firmly with us.

It's the '90s. Blockbuster is sold out of this week's new rental. You download a song but before it can finish your mom picks up the phone. Gas is free, your rollerblade wheels rotated, the Bulls just 3-peated, and the Mall of America is open. Your Tamagotchi is trying to kill you. Life is good.

Resurfacing this old wisdom imparted by a sage internet denizen of yore, as we embark on this new Bluesky journey together:
"wow you blocked me just cuz I disagreed with you???"

yes. Yes, exactly. This is a social media site. I come here to look at pictures of birds and shit post with my friends. This is not a town hall merging; I am not your elected official. I do not owe you my energy, my space, or my time. You and I are strangers that use the same website. I can block you for literally any reasons and that's okay. Take a deep breath. Block me too. You'll feel better.

NEW REC: As a fan of games like Her Story and Obra Dinn, I've spent the last few days channeling my inner '90s armchair Internet detective while glued to The Roottrees are Dead. Layered, twisty, and complex puzzle / mystery / logic deduction with a splash of morbidity. I was HOOKED.

The LAFD is so strapped for resources that they're asking all available off duty firefighters to call their communications (213) 576-8962) and report their availability to help with the LA fires. This is the first time in 19 years that the department has carried out this protocol.
