Rob Pollard @robpollard45.bsky.social · 09/10/2026To this day, whenever someone is grilling sausage, I turn into Chris Farley and wistfully whisper, in my best Chicago accent, "Saw-sige" 040
Rob Pollard @robpollard45.bsky.social · 06/10/2026This is a fail in three parts: - The particular butter he shows is ~$2.50/stick - Ingraham shops at high end stores (if *she* shops at all) and pays $4/stick - Bluesky is bougie about food & apparently doesn't realize most American shop at Kroger, Aldi, etc where a stick is absolutely a buck 000
Rob Pollard @robpollard45.bsky.social · 26/09/2026The man looked like this and was known for his “voluptuous” paintings. Let the man work! 1630
Rob Pollard @robpollard45.bsky.social · 07/09/2026Either this man really went through it (from the sounds of it, he was "covered in his own blood" and blackout drunk, so quite possible) or his LinkedIn picture is at least 10 years old. Of course, getting forcefully duct-taped to an airline seat does no favors. ampscamp.net/335w/hbw0a0k... 000
Rob Pollard @robpollard45.bsky.social · 25/08/2026Another F-minus uniform choice from the #lions #nfl <Return> 010
Rob Pollard @robpollard45.bsky.social · 04/08/2026I know big college towns like Ann Arbor are the prime market for this movie, but selling out 95% of your IMAX seats, three weeks in, on a Tuesday night is still something. It's crazy this movie is potentially going to gross as much as TG Maverick. 010
Rob Pollard @robpollard45.bsky.social · 15/07/2026I'm sorry, Diagnosis: Murder villain Caitlin Sweeney, I wasn't familiar with your game. www.imdb.com/title/tt0559... 1100
Rob Pollard @robpollard45.bsky.social · 27/06/2026When they report on something the Trump admin says happened, it is often presented as fact in the headline (the story doesn't indicate any independent verification) w the "US Military commanders said..." in the subhed Why did that not happen w "Pete Buttigieg was separated from his children..." 0281
Rob Pollard @robpollard45.bsky.social · 26/06/2026Ummm...can someone explain why the Wendy's, also across the street, has a tag on Google Maps as "Chaos Served Up"? That seems more like a Waffle House description. 160
Rob Pollard @robpollard45.bsky.social · 11/06/2026There is simply nothing remotely on the left like the propaganda network on the right. 1728
Rob Pollard @robpollard45.bsky.social · 03/06/2026Best I've done is 75 wins, but this may be my favorite: - 4 guys with bad knees and Earl "The Pearl" Monroe 000
Rob Pollard @robpollard45.bsky.social · 03/06/2026I tried to go with an all-shit talkers team with Jordan, AI, and Rasheed, but then fell into prime LeBron. I'm OK with it. (I'm not OK w only 69 wins -- prime MJ or LBJ alone are 55 wins; together? C'mon) I haven't decided if the Chief will punch people on the other team or his own team. 110
Rob Pollard @robpollard45.bsky.social · 04/05/2026OMG, this woman from Southfield (in a story in the Freep today) just did a Shaq. The math is hitting her in the face, but she doesn't sound much smarter than him on the topic -- just hoping that someone, from some party, magically solves this. Not how it works! 100
Rob Pollard @robpollard45.bsky.social · 20/04/2026With respect, that's from awhile ago. Here is a more recent picture, and as you can clearly see... SON A BITCH! 4971
Rob Pollard @robpollard45.bsky.social · 20/04/2026For no reason, here is a picture of Sting. He's 74, and he'll play us out. 2190
Rob Pollard @robpollard45.bsky.social · 15/04/2026Just got my monthly "Zmail" from the Detroit Zoo. Included a promo for their new eating spot, Woodward Slice. Clicked on the "Take a Bite" order option to look at the menu and...WTH? - $39 for a pizza? $13 for a slice? $5.49 for a "soda"? What are we doing? What's going on? #zoosareforfamilies 020
Rob Pollard @robpollard45.bsky.social · 30/03/2026It doesn't have 40M users, though; not even close. People need to use the site, not just register an account. I don't know any type of management or owner who would be satisfied w a slowly decaying site. It *could* be a resoundingly successful biz, but not unless there are smart changes. 110
Rob Pollard @robpollard45.bsky.social · 28/01/2026"The maniac who allegedly attacked Rep. Ilhan Omar with a mystery liquid at a town hall meeting had hinted in a cryptic text to a neighbor that he “might get arrested” at the event. Anthony Kazmierczak, 55, allegedly charged at the lefty congresswoman Tuesday night as she stood at the podium..." 2483
Rob Pollard @robpollard45.bsky.social · 17/01/2026I think a relative of hers used to play a mean Safety for the 49ers. 030
Rob Pollard @robpollard45.bsky.social · 22/12/2025I'm all for people abandoning Twitter, and haven't posted to that site in over a year, but they've got 100x more people < 30 (e.g., HS/college/pro athletes ; sports fans in general) than Bluesky. Not saying Twitter is close TikTok or Instagram, but Bluesky is a retirement home, comparatively. 010
Rob Pollard @robpollard45.bsky.social · 15/12/2025"How can you expect me to know that? I've only been a representative from the state of Missouri since 2013!" 1110
Rob Pollard @robpollard45.bsky.social · 15/12/2025Every day, there is a different story with this exact quote -- it's become a meme in less than a year. What a disaster the 2024 election turned out to be. 1935
Rob Pollard @robpollard45.bsky.social · 04/12/2025You need to come back to SE Michigan!. They're not exactly plentiful, but I see one every other day (e.g., one parks in my work parking lot in Ypsi about once a week). My great regret is never getting this Caddy new --- they're now only $20k used but I don't need another car payment. 110
Rob Pollard @robpollard45.bsky.social · 28/10/2025Just so people can appreciate how long the NY Times (and world media in general) are committed to this bit, another actual headline--from Oct 19. If there have been "a wave attacks" and more, now leading to air bombing, for over a week...there's not any "cease" in your "fire" (you would think). 100
Rob Pollard @robpollard45.bsky.social · 28/10/2025Pretty close! We have reached "tenuous" on the NYT "cease-fire is still holding" scale (even though the fire is not ceasing) I give myself a B+ 3901
Rob Pollard @robpollard45.bsky.social · 02/10/2025You honestly don't get it? Here's Gemini to help you out. 100
Rob Pollard @robpollard45.bsky.social · 24/09/2025The people of Bluesky need to realize SK govt has responded tepidly to this, mostly performatively gesturing towards SK public anger. The workers may not want to go, but SK govt & companies still want to go where the money is. They don't care about workers appreciably more than Trump & Miller. 120
Rob Pollard @robpollard45.bsky.social · 19/09/2025This man has seen this type of thing before and knows to stay clear. 0170
Rob Pollard @robpollard45.bsky.social · 29/08/2025There is a post on the old site where an old school con laments the fact his wife w Stage 4 now can't readily get the COVID vax b/c of the new rules. This guy knew RFK Jr was dangerous. He know Trump was crazy. Yet cultural issues win the day. They'll vote for that over their own wife's health. 051
Rob Pollard @robpollard45.bsky.social · 26/08/2025The media just can't or won't adjust to a President & political party that a) lies all the time and b) is authoritarian. This AP story was loud wrong for 12 hours. - "Trump fires" No he didn't! - "b/c of allegations of mtg fraud" No! We know that's not the actual reason. He's lying! 1/2 230
Rob Pollard @robpollard45.bsky.social · 10/08/2025Welp, Russell now has other problems: he’s apparently 85 years old and owns a steak restaurant in Chicago. 020
Rob Pollard @robpollard45.bsky.social · 01/08/2025Even the WSJ (news side) is not up to the task. If after a bad jobs number (a big story in itself) the US President responds, Politburo style, by canning the person in charge of providing the numbers, that should be an ***EMERGENCY*** across the fold situation. That's not what they're doing. 141
Rob Pollard @robpollard45.bsky.social · 25/07/2025Another great example. He used Michigan's platform to help Kaepernick -- he put himself out there to help a guy who a lot of football fans & GMs had left behind years ago. Wasn't just words with Jim. 010
Rob Pollard @robpollard45.bsky.social · 17/07/2025I don't think I've seen such poor approval score for a piece of entertainment since "Cats" with James Corden came out a few years ago. 010
