Construction #austin #i35. Whelp. I guess we are doing this again. 10 more years of even worse traffic.

Every time I see #potus staring blankly while someone describes something he’s never heard of before this moment all I can think of is.

I wonder that #elon doesn’t seem to realize he’s the perfect pasty to take the fall for all of this nonsense. Patsy is to kind a phrase but youknow. The real question is when will TFGs NPD win out over his pathetic groveling?

Must watch video from a GOP town hall last night with Victoria Spartz. Spartz is asked whether she will demand Pete Hegseth resign. She refuses. Crowd shouts her down for a full minute.

We were told not to share this publicly, but last year was record-breaking—America’s national parks saw over 331 million visits.

In Austin, nonprofits are in the midst of a 24 hour giving day to support our work. I just want to highlight an incredible young person who has already brought people together to raise almost $2k to prevent gun violence. Support her if you can! www.amplifyatx.org/p2p/400455/m...

However, a small reminder: You can't reason with a Narcissist. You can't talk to them or expect them to show understanding. Behaving like a decent person won't embarrass them or show them up, because they're always right. They will just accept your decency as submission, as is right and proper.

If I owned a #tesla I'd sell it as fast as possible because there's no way #elon didn't just 💩🛏️. TFG may not care but those last few people who have been able to rationalize their ownership just got some clarification about what is really up.

1. Looking at the EV sales results in the U.S. last year, and what EVs have been released, what are coming, and what brands fail to even bring new EVs to market, a pretty startling picture of the automotive market in the U.S. for the remainder of the decade is emerging.

Anyone can walk into Best Buy and walk out with a drone that is more than capable of carrying bad things. Zero reason to bring one across the us border. Smells like some propaganda to me.

Do companies just not realize at the CxO level that the #frelling virtual assistants make customers want to take a #frelling hostage? Is no one paying attention to the NPS of these things?

I’m pretty sure Sanderson knows someone with addiction this just hit really hard. #windandtruth
“Strangely, a part of Kaladin panicked as Szeth walked away. Despite seeing how well the conversation had gone, Kaladin wanted to do more. In a way, Szeth’s positive response made it worse—because the part of Kaladin that had always needed to help was stronger for people he liked.
He felt a sudden powerful urge to leap from his seat, to run after the man and insist that they make a plan. Or worse, to make one without Szeth’s knowledge. To protect him, save him, fight for him, do anything to keep the man from being hurt. He remembered a dead girl on a slab—a child he and his father had failed to save. A terrible pain echoed from that distant failure.”

Happy New Year! Today is an important day for me: it's the 20th(!) anniversary of the release of Old Man's War. On my site I write about how this unusual, not-actually-great release date turned out to be a blessing, and where the book and series go from here: whatever.scalzi.com/2025/01/01/2...

20 Years of Old Man’s War
In retrospect, Tor Books officially releasing Old Man’s War on January 1, 2005, doesn’t seem like a huge vote of confidence in the novel. One, the holiday season is over and all the spe…

I'd have been a lot more into pilates if I knew it was invented by a guy named Joe Pilates who drank a quart of liquor and smoked 15 cigars a day (Excerpt of a 1962 Sports Illustrated interview)

Some new updated blocklists at @skysentry.bsky.social Under the Lists tab, select the list, subscribe, and then you can select block or mute. I recommend Block, it removes them from your timeline, you never see them again. If you mute, they can still harass people who are commenting on your posts.
