Nick @nhaslam.bsky.social · 30/09/2026I think "beardos" mostly means Black, as they're mostly likely to have a shaving waiver for PFB, though doubtless he also hates having Sihks, Muslims, and any other non-Christians. 1211
Nick @nhaslam.bsky.social · 29/09/2026No wonder he flashed it too fast to read then hid it. Normally when making a conspiratorial accusation you at least want the people on your string board to be interconnected, not just have two entirely separate webs. 0121
Nick @nhaslam.bsky.social · 28/09/2026I advised a friend to do this once, although apparently it created a problem because I didn't mention something I did expect to be taken for granted - when storing your meat scraps in the freezer, put them in a container first. 000
Nick @nhaslam.bsky.social · 28/09/2026There's a cat near me I've befriended, very young, previously skittish, seemingly be pregnant. Sadly she has an ostensible owner so I can't grab her, but the poor thing never seems be let inside and can be seen in huddled on the porch in bad weather at night. Worried as birth and winter approach. 110
Nick @nhaslam.bsky.social · 27/09/2026Do you think the context that he’s an unqualified fanfic writer convinced of his unparalleled genius might be relevant in determining the likely accuracy of his opinions and proposed solutions? 1211
Nick @nhaslam.bsky.social · 21/09/2026If my boss had been repeatedly accused of shitting himself in public I might stay away from toilet humor entirely. 000
Nick @nhaslam.bsky.social · 14/09/2026I mean I watched the first Fantastic Beasts movie and that was already enough to lose interest in continuing to consume her Potterverse work and that was before her views were publicized, how big a sacrifice does she think it is not to watch a second adaptation of Harry Potter. 000
Nick @nhaslam.bsky.social · 14/09/2026There’s no “make economy good” button, but it turns out there are a lot of “make economy bad” buttons that were sitting dusty and unregarded until Trump started hammering at them. 020
Nick @nhaslam.bsky.social · 14/09/2026I've seen people comparing Talarico to Mamdani, like they're running in remotely similar environments. NY needs Democrats who can pull the party left, Texas hasn't had a Democratic senator in over 30 years. The bar Talarico needs to meet is Joe Manchin, anything over that is extra. 010
Nick @nhaslam.bsky.social · 07/09/2026I have seen the equally shameless “spikes in electricity requirements are actually good for the environment because they incentivize the search for alternative energy sources“ employed on behalf of both though. 011
Nick @nhaslam.bsky.social · 03/09/2026Does feel like there’s a tipping point between “businesses provide positive externalities and their presence should be encouraged“ to “economic benefits are part of the services we provide and expect to be paid for in full” that somewhat defeats the purpose. 010
Nick @nhaslam.bsky.social · 02/09/2026So I like pineapple on pizza yet the concept of it in calzones fills me with a strange revulsion. 3190
Nick @nhaslam.bsky.social · 02/09/2026I can't deny that, Spider-Girl is definitely the actual best way to go. 020
Nick @nhaslam.bsky.social · 02/09/2026Not sure where the line is drawn but I think Madame Web was able to use Infant Peter Parker, so maybe he can be there briefly so long as he isn’t Spider-Man? If so, a dark comedy about Spiders-Man, the swarm of spiders that devoured him and absorbed his consciousness. 140
Nick @nhaslam.bsky.social · 01/09/2026Clearly any decent system would have accounted for the possibility a deranged maniac would become president, skin a legitimate department agency to let a Nazi wear its skin, then the Nazi would use that authority to still illegally destroy USAID, resulting in the people it was keeping alive dying. 020
Nick @nhaslam.bsky.social · 28/08/2026This is kind of what they promised, saying it would be "Magic-adjacent" properties. However, the first cards that were legal to play were from The Walking Dead, which I guess has zombies but is otherwise relentlessly mundane. 150
Nick @nhaslam.bsky.social · 23/08/2026Some clever people had realized that if you covered an iron fist with a velvet glove it can steer too and people won’t mind so much that sometimes it still strikes. And then some other people came along and asked ”What’s this stupid glove for? We have an iron fist and can hit anyone we like.” 031
Nick @nhaslam.bsky.social · 14/08/2026“This kids show is literally supporting fascism because it doesn’t end with Steven executing the Diamond following their trial for crimes against humanity.” 120
Nick @nhaslam.bsky.social · 12/08/2026Like I'm not saying there can't be kinds of food that are a closed practice other people shouldn't thoughtlessly copy, but generally speaking food is the frontier of cultural exchange, shared freely, eagerly, and often insistently. The gatekeeping around it was bizarre. 0150
Nick @nhaslam.bsky.social · 10/08/2026A well researched argument in favor of the spworm. m.youtube.com/watch?v=gtPx...m.youtube.comHow To Improve Our Bodies | Smartypants PresentationYouTube video by Dropout 1130
Nick @nhaslam.bsky.social · 08/08/2026I’m sorry but you can’t make a movie whose premise is ”weird stuff is going on with sex” and cut the sex. If you just wanted a dull romantic comedy, why did you pair that with the annual National Orgy Night? 061
Nick @nhaslam.bsky.social · 04/08/2026It's not a war we're just slaughtering people, totally different and fine. 020
Nick @nhaslam.bsky.social · 03/08/2026Remembering Ladyballers, the Daily Wire movie-turned hey could we make this a documentary-turned never mind, movie built on the twin premises that middle aged men who played in high school would dominate a women’s basketball league, and that men could just easily lie they were transgender women. 030
Nick @nhaslam.bsky.social · 25/07/2026I mean a suspicious absence of Nerubians is entirely faithful to the WotLK expansion, I think there were three living Nerubians in all of Northrend. 110
Nick @nhaslam.bsky.social · 24/07/2026And I’m asking for your vote in the Hogwarts house elections (which is also a US congressional seat election because of a spell). 010
Nick @nhaslam.bsky.social · 22/07/2026Where’s all the extra money I was hoping to contemptuously toss at poor people? Unless that’s part of the Entertainment budget of course. 010
Nick @nhaslam.bsky.social · 29/06/2026I went to a butterfly conservatory just last weekend and they had a bunch of king quail running around with a tiny fake village at their nest. 030
Nick @nhaslam.bsky.social · 24/06/2026It's not like American is less imperialist now, we just dispensed with the notion it carries any measure of responsibility and stripped it down to "do what we want or we'll murder you". 010
Nick @nhaslam.bsky.social · 24/06/2026You actually do not need to hand it to Osama bin Laden, and pretending there's no meaningful distinction between him and Antifa activities is absurdly simplistic and politically idiotic. 100
Nick @nhaslam.bsky.social · 18/06/2026Yeah I overheard someone at the gym this Tuesday boasting that we'd "bombed the shit out of Iran so gas prices are going back down" as though we hadn't just effectively admitted defeat. From the perspective of "did we kill a lot more of them than they did us" I guess we won. 000
Nick @nhaslam.bsky.social · 10/06/2026This also after the 13th Doctor regenerated into David Tennant, and the 14th Doctor "bi-generated", meaning he didn't die but the 15th Doctor budded off from him. They did some weird stuff with regeneration and I don't think they had a clear idea why for any of it. 040
Nick @nhaslam.bsky.social · 08/06/2026I can already hear people going “oh no, the flesh hounds of X’lithatch are fusing me with eldritch flesh” like are you surprised by this? Just because you weren’t paying attention doesn’t mean researchers of mystic esoterica haven’t been preyed upon by the flesh hounds since before time. 000
Nick @nhaslam.bsky.social · 07/06/2026A guy who thinks pushups are a good replacement for logistics was in retrospect, and also in prospect, not the best choice to identify a path to victory In this conflict we initiated. 2291
Nick @nhaslam.bsky.social · 28/05/2026People who worship the idealized conception of their dad or themselves in the mirror deeply concerned about God's genitals. 000
Nick @nhaslam.bsky.social · 27/05/2026He fell prey to the common Discworld deific issue where people stop believing in the god and just believe in the shell of institutions and dogma formed around him, and in Nuggan's case that shell was things being randomly forbidden for no good reason, cause he was a total berk in life anyway. 0120
Nick @nhaslam.bsky.social · 26/05/2026I’m sure giving legitimate ICE officers a QR code people can scan will fix this. 000
Nick @nhaslam.bsky.social · 12/05/2026I have pulled pork stored in my freezer a good chunk of the year because of those post-holiday discounts. 010
Nick @nhaslam.bsky.social · 06/05/2026You know in his first appearance, given Uncle Ben was missing and Peter gave a paraphrased version of the exact lesson his death always taught him, I assumed they just decided we didn’t need to see Batman’s parents get shot again. I was aghast when they had Aunt May say the line. 040
Nick @nhaslam.bsky.social · 22/04/2026After the grandfather I checked the run time to see if there was enough time left for his wife to run out and do same thing. 020
Nick @nhaslam.bsky.social · 20/04/2026We gotta get in on this first, imagine if China beat us to catastrophically destabilizing their own country through a mass unemployment crisis? 2120
Nick @nhaslam.bsky.social · 17/04/2026I'm only 6' and it's still so built in that I did it without question even when I'd hurt my back and couldn't stand up straight. 000
Nick @nhaslam.bsky.social · 10/04/2026I have one cat like that and another who immediately starts nuzzling any new person she meets. 100
Nick @nhaslam.bsky.social · 19/03/2026I think two is a reasonable number though (for food). One might be fluke, two suggests an ongoing issue. I've ordered from a restaurant after getting sick once, but never twice. 000
Nick @nhaslam.bsky.social · 13/03/2026We are not a form of government that has never been implemented on a scale above a small commune, where it was unsuccessful, are you not shocked by this? 020
Nick @nhaslam.bsky.social · 12/03/2026Yeah I was very surprised to see it averages around once a month. That seems pretty reasonable? 040
Nick @nhaslam.bsky.social · 11/03/2026People who’ve been introduced to the concept of intersectionality but don’t comprehend it and just treat every aspect of their personal beliefs like they’re interwoven and indivisible traits of the one correct political stance. 030
Nick @nhaslam.bsky.social · 06/03/2026I appear to somehow have a bad lap for cats, but I do have to regularly get them off my desk because they won't stop nuzzling my hand when I'm working, and one of them frequently won't go to sleep and will keep complaining until she's allowed to do it while snuggled in my arms. 120
Nick @nhaslam.bsky.social · 28/02/2026It was one of the least credible statements in the first place, he had already been president and vastly ramped up drone strikes and threw out accountability for them. The man openly drooled over the notion of committing atrocities to prove how tough we are. 010
