in the city of Lynn, they’re using a tub of fluff to measure the depth of snow. because it’s snowed enough they’re adding a second tub of fluff. they claim “Lynn, of course, the home of Fluff”, which means Somerville is about to enter a polar war with Lynn

messing around with bridging #ATProto to GraphQL, kinda fun to play with in GraphiQL #atmosphereconf
querying the `app.bsky.actor.getProfile` lexicon but via GraphQL, kinda clunkily, but it makes it easy to get back a JSON representation of your own profile, and integrate with Relay/Apollo etc. among other things

Merry Christmas to all and especially to this framed drawing my mom has hung up that i drew at age 2, of “Scottish Santa”
Santa Claus is leading his reindeer through a night sky. All of the reindeer have red noses. Santa is wearing a Glengarry cap. Apparently he flies over four houses with chimneys blowing smoke and two apple tree trees.

saw Tim Berners-Lee speak tonight at @brattletheatre.bsky.social (sponsored by @harvardbookstore.bsky.social). what a legend. HTML and the early Web were *hugely* influential to me as a kid and it’s all thanks to nerds like him, Vint Cerf, and (of course) Mr. Al Gore

Crunchyroll having “I’m no longer interested in anime” as a cancellation reason is sending me. overnight a spirit stole my ability to enjoy anime and now I think Jojo’s Bizarre Adventure is simply a boring adventure, sorry
1. What is the primary reason why you are choosing to cancel? [Select one]
• The show(s) I watch ended
• I have found an alternative service
• I experienced video streaming issues (e.g. The video wouldn't load)
• The shows I want to watch are not available in my region
• I'm no longer interested in anime
• There is a lack of dubbed content
• My subscription is too expensive
• I don't have the time to watch anime
• I experienced outages (e.g. The site was down)
• There's no Crunchyroll app on my preferred device
• The service has poor video quality
• I am not receiving my Premium access even though I have paid for it, or other payment related issues
• Other (please describe your answer in Question 4)

for comparison: market basket is having an insane deal on Impossible patties this week ($10 down from $15)z if beef prices are actually up to $6.67/lb, this makes it exactly the same cost to buy imitation beef as real beef. pretty wild!
two packages of Impossible patties with six patties each. at 680g each they’re about 1.5lbs of imitation beef a bag

walmart target stock
Walmart why is target doing poorly this year
2:00 PM
I've only got info on items at Walmart. What can I help you find?
Walmart target stock
2:00 PM
Based on the provided articles from late 2024 and early 2025, Target's stock performance lagged behind Walmart's significantly. Several factors contributed to this underperformance:
Walmart's Strong Performance: Walmart experienced substantial stock growth, exceeding 60% in one year, while Target's stock declined. This disparity is attributed to various factors, including Walmart's resilience during economic uncertainty an & bility to absorb some tariff costs.
