Lina @lina8039.bsky.social · 07/10/2026I don't know if there are Flock cameras, or how many, in the College Park area, but it's surprising to me that the city hasn't commented on their use in the search for Dilan Ashar. For all the concerning/creepy applications, this would be an appropriate and good use. 010
Lina @lina8039.bsky.social · 06/10/2026Southwest FA: Don’t pass up any empty bin space, we’re running out of room in the back. Also Southwest FA: Why’d she put her suitcase there, she’s not even sitting in this row? 100
Lina @lina8039.bsky.social · 26/09/2026Time for my annual plug: go get a flu shot & COVID booster! Even if you don't do it for your own sake, do it for the very old, the very young, the pregnant, and the immunocompromised. 185
Lina @lina8039.bsky.social · 24/09/2026What the fuck is even happening at #NACIQI today. First ABA and then APA. Holy cow. 000

Lina @lina8039.bsky.social · 08/09/2026This is honestly the worst summer for mosquitoes I've experienced since moving to Baltimore. 🦟 My legs and feet are on FIRE. 100
Lina @lina8039.bsky.social · 27/08/2026We avoided the death blueberries and the diarrhea lettuce, but apparently we bought and ingested fruit popsicles with possible GLASS shards. [We are fine.] So, anyway, food safety deregulation is going great!! 🙃 100

AI should never replace human judgment and reporting.thebanner.comWMAR anchors bid emotional farewell as station shifts to anchorless streamingMany viewers who commented online pushed back against the change, seeing it as a mechanical maneuver that values dollars and cents over personal connection. 000

Lina @lina8039.bsky.social · 10/08/2026First colonoscopy done early, due to family history. Colon cancer is preventable if you have polyps removed! You can’t say that for many other cancers. Go get yours done. 130
Lina @lina8039.bsky.social · 07/08/2026Best kind of Baltimore afternoon. Oysters, spritz, by the water. 050

Lina @lina8039.bsky.social · 22/07/2026This new Alexa pop up panel when you shop Amazon is rage inducing. And it appears there's no easy way to disable it, either. 000

Lina @lina8039.bsky.social · 11/07/2026C’mon USPS. Be for real. The parcel is not traveling ~260 miles to my home in Baltimore in nine minutes. 000
Lina @lina8039.bsky.social · 03/07/2026From what I can see, the Sun is the only media outlet with a page specifically addressing weather for the 4th & fireworks in Baltimore. @thebaltimorebanner.com, @wbaltv11.bsky.social, & @cbsnewsbaltimore.bsky.social - room for improvement. 000
Lina @lina8039.bsky.social · 03/07/2026Is red wine still ok if you accidentally left it in your car for a week during 100+ temp heat wave? Asking for a friend. 😬🍷 000
Lina @lina8039.bsky.social · 01/07/2026I’m a regular long-time listener and admirer of NPR, but the Totenberg/Alito thing is beyond shameful. Where were the editors?? If it wasn’t NT you know that would have been a fireable offense. 120
Lina @lina8039.bsky.social · 28/06/2026The curse of being a good packer is you can fit so much crap on a carry on suitcase it comes with a ‘caution when lifting’ tag. 010
Lina @lina8039.bsky.social · 23/06/2026Very important informational update. The peach cobbler nothing bundt cake is not worth ordering. 👎🏼 (Which is a real pity, as their other cakes are really good.) 000
Lina @lina8039.bsky.social · 18/06/2026Bougie white ladies of BlueSky, will one of your cohort please explain the appeal of Trader Joe tote bags to me…? Like, I get tote bags for free at every non-profit conference? 020
Lina @lina8039.bsky.social · 16/06/2026Go for a routine physical, they order bloodwork. - Hopkins MyChart: nothing about fasting, including in the orders for the phlebotomist. - LabCorps: nothing about fasting, including in the appt reminders. - Day of: did you remember to fast for 12 hours??? 110

Lina @lina8039.bsky.social · 19/05/2026Using an un-tested AI tool to announce graduates is already the dumbest shit ever, but that no one thought to *STOP* it the second it missed a name, and let hundreds of students go unacknowledged rather than just read it themselves. Unbelievable.azfamily.comAI system fails during Glendale Community College graduation ceremonyAn AI system malfunctioned during Glendale Community College's commencement, misreading graduate names and pausing the ceremony multiple times. 001
Lina @lina8039.bsky.social · 18/05/2026Will never not be profoundly annoyed by media outlets (talkin’ to you @npr.org) using the word “troop” to refer to an individual rather than as a collective noun. 100
Lina @lina8039.bsky.social · 15/05/2026It’s like a week out and #Artscape has neither a map nor a schedule posted. Who even runs this thing. 140

Lina @lina8039.bsky.social · 20/04/2026Three weeks, three trips, less than 24 hours at home. View from Chicago hotel (leg two) is pretty rad, though. 000
Lina @lina8039.bsky.social · 20/04/2026Y’all. People who answer (seemingly non-urgent!) phone calls in public restrooms with the sound of flushing all around you: WHY?? And those initiating the calls, why are you not hanging up? 010
Lina @lina8039.bsky.social · 19/04/2026First time taking the light rail from BWI. Some thoughts as a frequent public transit rider: 1) it’s pretty dirty relative to other systems bc shitty people leave trash, even though the trains themselves are nice. 🧵 1/x 130
Lina @lina8039.bsky.social · 18/04/2026Okay, Charleston. Get to Edmunds Oast right this very minute to get their softshell crab over grits. Holy cow was that good. 000

Lina @lina8039.bsky.social · 03/04/2026You're really telling me the only way to give a household member access to a Blink doorbell camera is to just give 'em your username and password? Like, there's no way to add a household member to the account?? 110

Lina @lina8039.bsky.social · 31/03/2026Genuinely, how is Amtrak still in business? Thought about booking a weekend trip to NYC (from Baltimore). Coach seats for 2 were ~$400 rt, even months in advance. If I book a luxury bus (reclining seats, power outlets, etc), it takes 30 mins longer, but rt tickets for 2 was $85. 000
