“Never try to outstubborn a cat.” Robert A. Heinlein, _The Notebooks of Lazarus Long_

I got on Usenet in 1996. I feel like you were already on afh when I got there. I’m so glad we’re still in touch after all this time! 💜

This is my personal account. I think you can probably figure out what my opinion is by my blurb.

🫂🫂🫂

I’m constantly thinking I’m going to leave the internet. Every day is worse and people are disgusting and I’m so beyond terrified of all of this. But I do notice when I don’t see your words and hope you are doing well. 🫂

When I stop she looks at me like I’m stupid, ears all out to the side, so I end up having to do this for several minutes!

What is it with kitty bongos? She loves this.

Workers digging a drainage ditch in a strawberry field to get rid of the water from a recent rain

When it rains too much it causes problems in the strawberry fields as the water can cause mold. Workers have to dig drainage ditches in order to get the water out of the fields before harm is done. Fer shared this pic from Castroville CA after recent rain. #WeFeedYou

There are a lot of things that annoy me about that fascist idiot, but one of the little ones is that he keeps saying that “grok” comes from Hitchhiker’s Guide.

It comes from Stranger in a Strange Land, and has nothing to do with AI.

And the AI robots in Hitchhiker’s Guide? EVERYONE HATES THEM!

This is how it is happening.

Jeff Bezos never wanted this cartoon to become public.

He killed it, and as a result, pulitzer prize editorial cartoonist Ann Telnaes quit.

Make sure everyone sees this cartoon. - @aaronparnas.bsky.social

Oh interesting, if you take URL bsky.app/topic/ and append any keyword - it creates an insta-feed feed for that topic.

E.g. bsky.app/topic/Blackc...

One thing you can always look for on official accounts is their handle. An account like ProPublica would probably have their official URL as their handle. It’s BlueSky’s way of identification verification. The good and bad of that is a big discussion but it helps weed out the imposter if both exist.

@propublica.org is the official account, not your link

Musk thinks it's okay for "smart" immigrants to hang around. The rest of you guys who wash dishes, drive trucks, cook meals...just get lost.

Brad Stafford stockpiled the largest cache of explosives ever found by the FBI. He did target practice on a President Biden cutout. He promotes right-wing conspiracies.

Dude is out on bail for 25K and an ankle monitor.

Good to be a white extremist. Wild.

May the lightening strikes on the Capitol and Washington Monument on new years eve signal the end of 2024 rather than a sign of what is to come

A real photo and perfect metaphor heading into 2025.

Don’t forget the lace. Just a little, mind.
