jsnyder000.bsky.social @jsnyder000.bsky.social · 06/10/2026I despise Trump. I also despise unsupported, sensationalized statements. 1783
jsnyder000.bsky.social @jsnyder000.bsky.social · 06/10/2026This could have just as likely been posted by someone in the US asking why "we" are buying Teslas and not joining the international market, like Australia. 000
jsnyder000.bsky.social @jsnyder000.bsky.social · 06/10/2026Seriously, all you had to do was say "Australians" instead of "we". People from various countries read and respond to posts from around the world regularly. You are trying to impose a rule of online etiquette that doesn't exist, and shouldn't. 100
jsnyder000.bsky.social @jsnyder000.bsky.social · 06/10/2026Sorry. I will look for the "Aussie Only" label next time I 100
jsnyder000.bsky.social @jsnyder000.bsky.social · 06/10/2026Sorry. I mistakenly believed that the Worldwide Web was, you know, worldwide. 100
jsnyder000.bsky.social @jsnyder000.bsky.social · 06/10/2026Because the US government won't let them buy better, less expensive EVs from China. 100
jsnyder000.bsky.social @jsnyder000.bsky.social · 04/10/2026My immediate thought on reading the survey question was that the positive responses would be a weird mix of genuine respect and patriarchal chauvinism. A direct relationship between responses and the actual situation in each country assumes an unwarranted level of self awareness in the respondents. 0170
jsnyder000.bsky.social @jsnyder000.bsky.social · 04/10/2026Good taste. I'd have Yo La Tengo, maybe "I Can Hear the Heart Beating as One", in there somewhere. 011
jsnyder000.bsky.social @jsnyder000.bsky.social · 03/10/2026What does it mean for a team owner to be suspended for a certain number of games? It's not like he has a pay per game contract. 010
jsnyder000.bsky.social @jsnyder000.bsky.social · 30/09/2026"Leftist violence" remains far less common than violence inspired by far right extremism. But, of course, all political violence is wrong. 100
jsnyder000.bsky.social @jsnyder000.bsky.social · 30/09/2026Uh, okay. I'm still opposed to throwing firebombs at peaceful protesters. Even ones that you really, really don't like. 100
jsnyder000.bsky.social @jsnyder000.bsky.social · 30/09/2026Well, there was that time that a man threw a Molotov cocktail into a Jewish group marching in support of Israel in Denver. 210
jsnyder000.bsky.social @jsnyder000.bsky.social · 30/09/2026Had cats that lived to 22 and 24 years old. Towards the end they were rock stars at the vet's office. Never really got past losing them. 040

jsnyder000.bsky.social @jsnyder000.bsky.social · 28/09/2026Choices have consequences. When your choices endanger the rest of us, we have every right to scorn your foolish decisions and make you bear the cost. 000
jsnyder000.bsky.social @jsnyder000.bsky.social · 28/09/2026So, the best they can say about him is that he was in a group whose leaders sexually exploited vulnerable young women and turned a blind eye to the abuse and criminality around him? Sounds like he is particularly qualified to work in the Trump administration. 100
jsnyder000.bsky.social @jsnyder000.bsky.social · 28/09/2026I felt that way about the last presidential election. Now, I'm scared shitless. Don't count your chickens before they hatch. 000
jsnyder000.bsky.social @jsnyder000.bsky.social · 26/09/2026 Interesting. Two major screwups by Blanche. First, the AG has admitted to redacting the names of people who are not victims. That should be headline news. Second, he has made statements placing the Administration's history of transparency, or lack of it, in dispute. Have fun with that. 010

jsnyder000.bsky.social @jsnyder000.bsky.social · 22/09/2026Why is Mamdani giving the microphone to Trump? I am sick of otherwise good people who think it is fine to stand around looking like everything is fine and normal, legitimizing him. Shame on you. 010
jsnyder000.bsky.social @jsnyder000.bsky.social · 20/09/2026I seriously want someone to justify the claim that Macklemore's public statement in support of the Palestinians was "hate speech". I didn't hear anything that warranted that label. Is it possible to oppose the Netanyahu government's actions without being called an anti-Semite? 010
jsnyder000.bsky.social @jsnyder000.bsky.social · 20/09/2026For once, I agree with him. Vote like Trump was on the ballot, because every candidate with an R beside their name is part of the problem. 010
jsnyder000.bsky.social @jsnyder000.bsky.social · 17/09/2026Uh-oh. Somebody at CBS is going to get fired for actually reporting the news. 010
jsnyder000.bsky.social @jsnyder000.bsky.social · 14/09/2026I am actually much more concerned about policies that deny climate change and discourage people from moving away from oil technologies. Protecting the US auto industry, defunding renewable energy research and so on. 040
jsnyder000.bsky.social @jsnyder000.bsky.social · 14/09/2026I am not at all sure that encouraging people to buy environmentally beneficial products is the same as "shaming" those who can't. If those who actually are buying the big ticket items would give more consideration to their impact on climate and environmental issues, we would be better off. 130
jsnyder000.bsky.social @jsnyder000.bsky.social · 13/09/2026And conservative online media outlets all report the story as "Trump orders NYT to retract story attacking him for his record of supporting 9/11 victims". 010
jsnyder000.bsky.social @jsnyder000.bsky.social · 13/09/2026Why do all Republican "negotiations" with Ukraine center on the question of how much they should give to the Russians? It's almost like Putin has some sort of leverage... 001
jsnyder000.bsky.social @jsnyder000.bsky.social · 08/09/2026Odd. I corrected a factual misstatement and got an unrelated diatribe in response. Trump's plan to eliminate birthright citizenship failed. That's it. 000
jsnyder000.bsky.social @jsnyder000.bsky.social · 08/09/2026I'm willing to bet that he has someone who does it for him. Probably Natalie Harp. 010
jsnyder000.bsky.social @jsnyder000.bsky.social · 08/09/2026What is it about? If it's not about making money directly from running a media conglomerate, then it's about making more money by using a propaganda machine to promote the narrative they want. It's ALWAYS about money. 110
jsnyder000.bsky.social @jsnyder000.bsky.social · 06/09/2026He writes like that because he is speaking in terms that his followers can comprehend and enjoy. And because he is an idiotic asshole. 000
jsnyder000.bsky.social @jsnyder000.bsky.social · 03/09/2026I agree, if you limit your conclusions a common European definition of e-bike (a pedal-assist e-bike with a top end of 15 mph for assistance). The study you emphasized did so. A two-wheeled vehicle with a throttle-controlled motor is not likely to involve much exercise. That's what I mainly see. 000
jsnyder000.bsky.social @jsnyder000.bsky.social · 03/09/2026That's not what she said, and she is right. We keep feeding the desire to do less physically. I agree that e-bikes are a boon to some people but they are a lazy convenience for many, like the droves of teens and children that I see buzzing around my neighborhood. 100
jsnyder000.bsky.social @jsnyder000.bsky.social · 03/09/2026I can't find the words to explain how strange it is to hear Trump saying something I wholeheartedly agree with. I seriously doubt that it has happened since then. 000
jsnyder000.bsky.social @jsnyder000.bsky.social · 03/09/2026When I think of this and Trump's sympathy for Medicare frauds, my blood boils. He has pardoned those responsible for billions in fraud, and is aligned with a Republican Senator who is connected to the largest Medicare scheme to date, but his administration won't provide care for people it detains? 000
jsnyder000.bsky.social @jsnyder000.bsky.social · 03/09/2026When it's our turn, can we rename Stone Mountain, Georgia to something more appropriate? I'm thinking that "Google and Apple Bootlicker Hill" has a nice ring to it. 010
jsnyder000.bsky.social @jsnyder000.bsky.social · 02/09/2026Giving incompetent cowards guns and a badge is a recipe for disaster. Why is this being investigated by the Georgia Department of Agriculture instead of a law enforcement agency? Why is there no mention of disciplinary action against the officer who panicked and went for his gun? 010
jsnyder000.bsky.social @jsnyder000.bsky.social · 02/09/2026I would definitely categorize this as economic warfare. Banning cheaper electric vehicles protects the rich owners by making consumers pay more for less. 110
jsnyder000.bsky.social @jsnyder000.bsky.social · 02/09/2026So, you agree that U.S. automakers can't compete. You think that the capitalist free market is failing so the government should take care of them, because there are bigger social issues at stake. Do you apply the same approach when the free market leaves individuals out in the cold? Welfare? 110
jsnyder000.bsky.social @jsnyder000.bsky.social · 01/09/2026We still have birthright citizenship. Trump's executive order attempting to abolish it was struck down by the Supreme Court. Even they had to admit that the would-be king couldn't change the Constitution. 130
jsnyder000.bsky.social @jsnyder000.bsky.social · 26/08/2026Sorry. Started to say that I'm not backing Netanyahu, but this post is straight-up bigotry. 020
jsnyder000.bsky.social @jsnyder000.bsky.social · 26/08/2026The CIA Director is not a diplomat. My guess is that Putin is blackmailing Trump. Again. Watch the news. Some sort of anti Ukrainian nonsense will come out of the Administration soon. 000
