I'm old enough to remember when Is Mitch McConnell Still Alive was the most urgently unanswered question and we absolutely could not get a single sensible piece of information about it and we still don't know now anyway how is your day going?

This is my local bookstore and they're AMAZING! Constantly doing author talks, and I've pre ordered practically every new book in my library from them for more than a decade now. Lovely people, lovely shop. Please throw them some business!

Stayed up LATE last night finishing the incandescent "Alif the Unseen" by @gwillow.me and let me tell you HOO BOY it is a RIDE. I laughed out loud SEVERALLY, but also had my neurons exploded by the marriage of technology and mythology with a healthy cultural education snuck into the mix as a bonus!

Just finished Villain by @nataliezed.bsky.social - literally just closed the thing - and I'm completely fucking poleaxed. Hench was a glorious pandemonium, but Villain is an absolute fucking Armageddon. Complex, genuine, disturbing, hilarious, it's a goddamned literaturical singularity. #BookSky

Hey @tntsportsus.bsky.social - it's meaningless to mention "the geopolitical import" of the #RolandGarros women's SF matches today without stating plainly that Russia is the aggressor against Ukraine, and is internationally condemned because of it. Don't be cowards.

Sweet Tapdancing Jesus the AI bros are absurd. "Product could accept a varying level of reliability depending on how experimental the (AI generated) feature is." Every product team I've EVER worked with would've murdered me if I pushed something to prod and said "it will have varying reliability".

I'm suddenly imagining a Dave situation where he's had some sort of massive arterial embolism and is now a potato and his handlers find a guy who looks exactly like him to give speeches but also he's terribly sweet and extremely liberal and suddenly policies start changing and they lose control.

@alixeharrow.bsky.social Just finished listening to The Everlasting and, in no particular order: HOLY SHIT HOLY FUCK HOLY JESUS FUCK SHIT It's just SO GODDAMN GREAT. Moira Quirk is unquestionably Una. Sid Sagar is a revelation. The book is ABSOLUTE GENIUS. Thank you, so much, for all of it!

Once while eating dinner with my daughters and my mom, my youngest (11 at the time) asked "Do frogs have sex? Oh my god are there frog vaginas?" My mom, mortally embarrassed: "Can we put that topic in abeyance please?" Me: "No, but we can put it on layaway!" Nobody laughed.

This is the 3rd time in my lifetime that @espn has ruined tennis on TV. In the 90s they'd delay broadcasts then truncate them. In the 00's they stopped carrying it almost entirely but the tennis channel came along and it was glorious. Now they're "broadcasting" again but it's pay walled. Assholes.

Hey does everyone remember how wild it was that they held the Olympic Games in Nazi Germany in 1936 and the whole world just showed up anyway and then WW2 erupted a few years later? Yeah just a random observation, nothing to see here I'm sure.
