My grandfather went from being a migrant fruit picker to a printed circuit board salesperson.

Maybe because Soul Train was born this day in 1971 I want to tell this story. I was born in the Jim Crow south. When I began high school in 1972 it was just five years after local schools had desegregated.

Now that players get NIL, they need to start adding fines for this type of shit. And his actions are 100% what the rest of the CFB community thinks about USC football.

The fact that those miserable dill holes always show up and everyone goes on having a great time, spreading love, and living their best lives adds to the joy, imo.

Amazing how wealth and fame mess people up. They literally forget how to be human or don't think it's worth trying.

Couldn’t really give a toss about Ed Sheeran tbh, I could spend a lifetime caring about artists who don’t give a fig. But he’s done a mealy mouthed statement as one of the West’s most powerful artists that doesn’t confront billionaires dictating what artists can and can’t say on stage and that’s big

btw Kanye did a song Heil Hitler and no one stepped in to oppose his tour(s), which is ongoing. In fact, Kanye is scheduled to perform at one of the stadiums Macklemore has been stopped from being at.

Reminds me of an Irish tax driver who made a big deal (with a negative insinuation) of immigrants coming to Ireland to work without wives or children. Later on the trip I saw this plaque commemorating Irish women who endured after their husbands emigrated without wives and children.
Plaque that reads: a tribute to the Achill women who coped with loneliness and hardship in the absence of their menfolk who were forced to emigrate to provide for their families.

Just listened to the Hank Williams Jr. version of that tune today. I sorta collect covers of that song because I love it so much but still need some variation in my life.

Growing up, before my dad found religion, the Union was a big part of our community. Major holidays — not just Labor Day — were spent at Union-hosted events. Picnics. Parties. Amusement parks. These experiences shaped me (<-- understatement). I'm sure fewer kids experience that these days.

A few years ago I went to a pig sanctuary and most of the pigs were stoned from eating green acorns. This one, Wilbur, couldn’t stand up and was too big to lift, so the staff had to leave him in this bush and wait for him to sober up.
Wilbur, a stoned pig lying in the dirt and unable to stand at Pigs in the Wood sanctuary, Huddersfield. I later adopted him.

One of the first thing I noticed about those plates is that they were designed to be more easily surveilled — true about nearly all of Idaho's new plates.

Well, I hope it's not "never." A party isn't very useful if you can't articulate what you stand for. Gotta focus on the overlap instead of the differences. Obsessing over differences works for positioning a candidate against their competition, but not their constituency.

I don't really have an objection to the CEO saying Bluesky is open to all; it's kind of his job to do that. But as others have pointed out, the design of the site means it's harder for trolls/bots/chuds *and also* influencers/hypebeasts to get traction. The "bubble" here is actually normal humans.

I like that folks expect the whales to be on some sort of specific timeline. www.livescience.com/animals/orca...

Killer whales sink another boat off the coast of Spain — why are they still doing this after 6 years?
A small, endangered pod of orcas off Spain and Portugal has sunk at least eight boats since 2020, and despite speculation, the real explanation might have nothing to do with revenge.

The anti-data center movement is like "I don't want to pay more money for a thing that will not benefit me at all and will actively make my life measurably worse in a bunch of ways" and the pro-data center movement is like "We want it to be illegal for you to not like us."
