Congratulations to Rosanne for doing something quietly for once. But also: the whole paragraph sounds like a bad fever dream. It would fit well after “omg I just had the weirdest dream…”

One thing that got lost in the post with Tom Cotton’s phone number is the truly stupid reason why we shouldn’t do daylight savings anymore: golf! And also: golfers and tennis players! Who cares about the PGA Tour?! And farmers want daylight to “play or work”? 🤔 www.trumpstruth.org/statuses/42122
The PGA TOUR, as an example, needs more Daylight in the afternoon in order to finish their Tournaments. Likewise, regular Golfers, Tennis Players, Hunters and, perhaps most importantly, Farmers who want more Daylight to play or work. See letter from Brian Rolapp, CEO of the PGA TOUR below. 65% PLUS want more sun in the afternoon

Actually we call it super intellectualism! 🙃

So-called “white collar” crimes need to be punished much more harshly. The problem is that the ones making the laws and the ones sentencing see themselves and their “kind” in the guilty.

Nice! On just the CL vs Marketplace part, I was struck over the summer how much CL fell. I sold a bunch of stuff and barely got any contact through Craigslist, for the exact same ads on both platforms. For so long it was seen as impossible to replace.

To think these people live around us, with no common decency…

If that were true and not what honest people see, what a shitty ad that would be. If you really don’t see feet dangling and a white hood, lighting and composition are just really bad. And the people in charge respond “we’re so sorry for being so incompetent and clueless! 👉🏻👈🏻🥹”

The US is condemned to always play a game of “stupid or liar” about racism. Every time something obviously racist comes out, the people raising the issue are called “critics” and the issue is called a “controversy”. “I only see someone holding a pair of shoes being lit by the company’s logo” 🙄

It’s just a caricatural thing French people supposedly say. A sort of guttural sound. Used here to indicate the Frenchness of the person. See this Flight of the Conchords song: youtu.be/DzZ3EYzjzuE

Also “right now we’re focused on November 3rd not January 3rd”? You can’t think beyond three months in the future and you want to be speaker of the house? That guy has been so incredibly lame.

“Are you wearing a tie?” Hakeem Jeffries: “I can tell that you’re asking me a yes-or-no question on a basic, verifiable fact, and what I really want the American people to hear right now is the damage that has been done to…” Insane.

This is absolutely WILD. Here's the dashboard video posted by @fritschner.bsky.social. Fast forward to about 1 minute. An ICE officer jumps out of a van and pulls a gun on this woman immediately before lying and claiming she "almost ran us over." *profanity warning if watching in public.

Good analysis as usual! (Minor: you have an extra word or two in “to forgo a curtail a weekend junket to Chicago”)

In the digital world, I’ve been dealing with Forma, a company that deals with numbers a lot (e.g., FSA claims, benefits reimbursement) and this is the font they use. The 8 makes me upset. I told support but of course nothing happened.
Screenshot of a website for Forma with various percentages and marketing copy. The first percentage is 87%. The 8 looks upside down either way a smwider top and narrower bottom.

I can’t stand this. It happens constantly. Like when people reuse “big beautiful bill”, “liberation day”, etc. Trump tells an obvious lie about someone and instead of refusing to accept that universe, they go to the person the lie is about and ask them to disclaim it.

I had missed this thread earlier! I love the last two in this thread for the 3D effect you get.

I see a post like this and I want to see it. Then I remember that Matt Damon stars in it and I don’t think I can do that to myself because I can’t stand the guy.

I don’t want to brag but my local Ace account is misspelled as “Jimothee”. I’m not a short-spiked raccoon though!

I don’t know what he does, but he looks actually great. I know it’s not just moisturizer and beauty sleep but when you see many others… Anyway, that video was deeply embarrassing, holy moly.

Because the black matches the mat it’s on, for a moment I thought it was a 3D printer of some kind of mesh 😄

The funny thing is that people wrote terrible posts without AI but now the dam has broken and more idiots feel empowered to write idiotic posts based on what they saw done before. I don’t understand the lack of awareness though…

I'm selling a #LEGO set and had no luck on Facebook and Craigslist. So I give eBay a try and get a sale the next day! Amazing! Now the buyer tells me he expected a fully built set because the pictures were of the set built. People are really weird.

Popped up in trending and I wasn’t prepared. Sounds like he has a Seth Rogen sleeping inside him for special occasions.

I was able to make some progress at camp (Lair of the Bear) today. I think I brought that same piece last year but didn’t end up touching it. 👀 (too busy with other activities) #embroidery #wip #LairOfTheBear
Same piece, some more of the sky is being filled in.
I can see some slight banding of various blues in the sky and I don’t quite like it. Not entirely sure I have enough thread so I’ll fix it at the end if I can.

Nice, thanks! Cases are usually hard and utilitarian. Great “hack” for a softer and more organic look.

Really cool and unique! How do you attach it to the actual case?

There clearly isn’t a direct link between AI and cheaper food and housing. And that’s clear evidence that it’s simply a lie aimed at catering to what people care and worry the most about. He might as well say “more and deeper orgasms”.

Thanks for bringing up that story again, because it’s easy to forget. It’s hard to believe it happened, that people went out of their way to say “you know what? We’ll hire *that* guy”.

He’s onto something… maybe laying stuff flat is easier than laying it vertically? Has anyone tested this? He should tell his SpaceX buddy, it would save so much on fuel!!!

Tim Boucher @t13r.bsky.social · 03/06/2026
Agreed. The first episode, I couldn’t get any answer and that felt annoying. It got much better later on. I wonder how that team will do in the finals, because their domination was indeed a bit much.

Just finished. Absolute cinema. Not convinced by their strategies, but dramatic ending.

That from-the-ground picture doesn’t even show how bad it is. It’s really right there. From Reddit:

Thank you! I like doing this for myself (like knowing that I started this particular one over a year ago 🥲), and also to show others that these things can take a long time and that’s okay. Too many posts with just the final results 😄

I really like how the sampler turns into a legit piece to display!

Some more (slow) progress. I haven’t been in the mood lately. The sky continues to fill up though… #embroidery #wip
Progress pic of the same piece. It’s still upside down for easy access. There are a couple of darker blue threads now, radiating outwards from the moon.
The sky may be about 25% done.

Likely not the same professional results, but there are papers, including holographic, for inkjet printers. Could be a first step to see if you want to go to the next. (Assuming you have a printer already of course) (Personally I’ve done temporary tattoos for company offsites)

Somebody stop me: I’ve started leaving comments on YouTube videos. Not a lot, just a handful, but that’s still more than in the previous twenty years.

Fun! Question as a non-native speaker: does “know” and “sew” sounds exactly the same? I know “sew” is not “sue” but it feels like a subtly different ‘o’ sound. Not that the pun doesn’t work, I’m just curious!

Very original and well executed!
