Taylor Rule @taylorrule.bsky.social · 06/10/2026The last season of the Wire was so goofy that it made me retroactively unsuspend my disbelief about some of the more fantastical parts of the earlier seasons. 000

Taylor Rule @taylorrule.bsky.social · 04/10/2026I went to Mexico ~25 years ago as a kid and had people asking to touch my blonde hair in the street. It's amazing how fast the world has globalized, even recently 000
Taylor Rule @taylorrule.bsky.social · 03/10/2026I feel pretty comfortable dismissing any movie where they gussie up Tom Cruise or whoever like this. It just goes into the prosthetic face movie waste bin in my mind, not gonna watch it. 001
Taylor Rule @taylorrule.bsky.social · 02/10/2026Ha, I was thinking something similar after reading all of the hysterical responses to that joke. It's enough to make you want to go back to talking about flying spaghetti monsters 010
Taylor Rule @taylorrule.bsky.social · 02/10/2026The YIMBY movement is really impressive for how thoroughly left leaning people now embrace standard economic thinking about housing when they reject it everywhere else. NIMBYs get dogpiled on a site as lefty as Bluesky but the concept of supply in any other context is written off as Reaganomics. 000
Taylor Rule @taylorrule.bsky.social · 01/10/2026It wasn't my favorite either, but after reading I discovered I read a translation that most people didn't love. A lot of the humor didn't come through 010
Taylor Rule @taylorrule.bsky.social · 27/09/2026A couple of @stephenjacobsmith.com moments in Berlin: a 44 popper elevator and a preserved stained glass tilt + turn window 030
Taylor Rule @taylorrule.bsky.social · 26/09/2026It's weird for them to disqualify the Sopranos but Simpsons is truly a product of the 1990s, not 21st century 001
Taylor Rule @taylorrule.bsky.social · 23/09/2026Apropos of maybe something I found a staircase in Barcelona that even the Spaniards think is unsafe (it's roped off) 120
Taylor Rule @taylorrule.bsky.social · 19/09/2026What do you make of the plumber's claim that cast iron is less cheap to repair? 211
Taylor Rule @taylorrule.bsky.social · 18/09/2026I agree, it's difficult to get oriented for someone like me who doesn't live there. Growing up in Charlotte I didn't realize how rare it is for a city to have no water in or around it, it definitely makes it harder to recognize from a map. Great article! 000
Taylor Rule @taylorrule.bsky.social · 17/09/2026Yeah they will need solar panels on the top for full effectiveness 020
Taylor Rule @taylorrule.bsky.social · 15/09/2026My sister in Charlotte with above ground lines lost power 5 times this summer. It was one of the first things she mentioned to me when she visited since it was so disruptive. 000
Taylor Rule @taylorrule.bsky.social · 15/09/2026Not sure if this is more closure than you want but no they don't 010
Taylor Rule @taylorrule.bsky.social · 12/09/2026Yeah that's true. I feel like NYC had some circa 2005 new buildings that look like five over ones (albeit on much narrower lots) but somehow that's been solved. Looks like mostly brick or glass on the outside now, not petroleum products. 010
Taylor Rule @taylorrule.bsky.social · 12/09/2026Chicago is the glaring exception to that NYT article from a couple years ago about how new build apartments look the same everywhere in the country. Every new mid rise building in Chicago could only be from Chicago 3223
Taylor Rule @taylorrule.bsky.social · 07/09/2026I think this is the first time I've seen a personal responsibility argument after ~2 years on Bluesky. About black women no less bsky.app/profile/phoe... 000
Taylor Rule @taylorrule.bsky.social · 06/09/2026Couldn't they easily turn around and say that's because the second staircases prevent deaths outside the unit with the fire? 100
Taylor Rule @taylorrule.bsky.social · 04/09/2026It's funny that even when you go through the dirt poor parts of the country with people living in the shittiest little house you've ever seen, indoor couches on the porch, trash fire burning, all that, they invariably still have a shiny new pickup truck parked outside 020
Taylor Rule @taylorrule.bsky.social · 03/09/2026I don't know enough about heat pumps but you might be able to tell from this thread on X x.com/joshleong/st...x.comJosh Leong (@joshleong) on XSo many heat-exchangers, so many things to insulate and continuous variable motors for the computer to manage 😅. We chose water primarily for deploy-ability, and solved a lot of the issues with using ... 100

The startup in the article claims to have a heat pump that doesn't use refrigerant airform.spaceairform.spaceAirform OneThe world's most advanced liquid cooling heat pump. No refrigerants between devices. Just add water. 110
Taylor Rule @taylorrule.bsky.social · 01/09/2026I'm sure the fire department will be lining up to express their support for its expansion 130
Taylor Rule @taylorrule.bsky.social · 30/08/2026And even when you live in the one city that still has the newspaper they barely do any local coverage 010
Taylor Rule @taylorrule.bsky.social · 29/08/2026I've put together a decent FPL career by not jumping on minutes risks who played really well for a few games! But I think you might be right for him, he's too good to not play 110
Taylor Rule @taylorrule.bsky.social · 29/08/2026How do you feel about his minutes? He said he almost got yanked at halftime 100
Taylor Rule @taylorrule.bsky.social · 28/08/2026Interesting, I feel like I can feel the slope under my feet even for the fairly flat corners so I'd expect that a blind person could too. Definitely some tension there. I feel like the blind are far outnumbered by the mobility impaired but I know that can't really be a consideration with our laws. 210
Taylor Rule @taylorrule.bsky.social · 28/08/2026There you go again mixing up your ADA permitted sidewalk slope graphics. Why do they require the raised bumps like that? For a wheelchair user it seems like that stuff is less grippy than concrete. 130
Taylor Rule @taylorrule.bsky.social · 27/08/2026It would be great if I could read about this sort of thing in the New York Times instead of having to dig deep on Bluesky 000
Taylor Rule @taylorrule.bsky.social · 24/08/2026Relying on the guy who everybody owns to save your gameweek feels like a flawless plan 110

Taylor Rule @taylorrule.bsky.social · 16/08/2026I just saw Wesley Yang coming out of a Kurosawa showing at BAM and he was waiting in line for the all gender bathroom instead of walking up one flight of stairs to use the men's room 000
Taylor Rule @taylorrule.bsky.social · 13/08/2026The per prisoner numbers are pretty funny too. 655 square feet per person has to be more space than the average New Yorker lives in right? $2.8M in cost per prisoner as well. 230
Taylor Rule @taylorrule.bsky.social · 12/08/202611 years is actually a very long hold for a private equity-backed business, long enough to make you wonder if something went wrong. Coming up with the correct gay culture analogy for that is above my pay grade so I won't attempt it. 010

Taylor Rule @taylorrule.bsky.social · 04/08/2026WSJ had another pretty good entry into this photo category 000
Taylor Rule @taylorrule.bsky.social · 03/08/2026Plus a lot of people may not have a preference for big cars per se, they just don't want to be smaller than other cars for safety reasons 020
Taylor Rule @taylorrule.bsky.social · 03/08/2026The MTA escalators all have their own personalities. Columbus circle goes down for months at a time, while the one at Barclays gets repaired and broken every three days in perpetuity 000
Taylor Rule @taylorrule.bsky.social · 31/07/2026The dozens of (actually functioning) self checkouts mean that I've never waited in line to check out at Whole Foods. Incredibly convenient and a huge part of the reason I go there 080
Taylor Rule @taylorrule.bsky.social · 27/07/2026I think it's the case that companies are basing their decisions on more sophisticated data than national shrinkage rates from 2022 instead of being brainwashed by what they see on social media 000
Taylor Rule @taylorrule.bsky.social · 25/07/2026It's funny that LA has that lot coverage but still feels so spread out and unwalkable. Wide roads and deep buildings is the worst of both worlds 0160
