I need to monitor the situation at Nantucket to see how quickly they start taking down any of the half dozen banners welcoming a “Fellow New Englander” to Chapel Hill
On twitter, I had an underscore in my name. Here, I don’t. Everything else is basically the same 📍 Carrboro, North Carolina

UNC is longing for the days when all the most embarrassing things for the football program directly involved Jordon Hudson
based on the TCU game, I’m not sure there’s much NFL scouts need to see of this UNC team
instead we get a federal program that pays for a single us citizen to spend one beautiful late summer day at the US open watching tennis
also, I just looked at the 36 accounts you follow and frankly we’d all be better off if some of them never posted
you’re not having to pay bluesky for every account you follow, so what’s it matter if you end up following a few accounts that don’t ever post?
I expect bad takes about country music, but that is a take that doesn’t even make sense
every day of 2025 is gonna take decades to undo
This is the centrist position. The liberal position is a TOS violation.
if they can do this, guess which other demographics the justice department is going to consider firearm bans for

there is no such thing as a viral pizza from domino’s. please do not pretend there is
so why isn’t Lenny on bluesky?
it was that way for a while, but a day or so ago, the south Chapel Hill CVS started showing up as having available appointments with having to have a prescription. when I went in, they did ask if I had comorbidity to report for insurance, but it seems like they would have given the shot regardless
just got my covid vaccination shot. RFK can suck it
maybe Oakland just doesn't deserve baseball
"was dead or sick"
you didn't also make one of these for SNL dropping Please Don't Destroy, did you?
Holy shit, he actually did it!
It wasn’t the media it was my heart
"Finally"
Something I wonder about for real is what comes after this, whenever that is. Because it can't be this again, right? Like if this is what the presidency is now then we can't ever have another president
It’d be like trying to find the next Michael Jordan by recruiting a bunch of guys who were cut from their high school varsity basketball team
RIP to HBO's 5starMAX. I had never heard of you before right now
I'm trying to figure out who is Bari Weiss's Andy Rooney
eventually you'd think people would realize that was a story unique to the Dean Smith mythology and should not a template for how things are supposed to operate normally
These go up to four.
Meanwhile some of Hugh Bonneville's costars have been conspicuously silent about Gaza
Does anybody know the story behind the Downtown Durham Ambassadors being on loan to downtown Chapel Hill? I've seen a truckload of them around Franklin and Rosemary Streets the past couple of days this week
north carolina businesses are getting trained on what to do if ICE shows up
lol at Bari's "broadly shit-kicking anti-establishment disposition." She's not fucking Stone Cold Steve Austin, she is the kid from your high school who's unsettlingly good at talking to other kid's parents. Her only demonstrable skill, a very valuable one, is that rich dummies find her amusing.
Really not enjoying the combination of “nobody has a job” and “everything is expensive now”
Do you know what the actual times are for those dinner hours?
whatever multi-use development gets built in the current location of the Durham YMCA really needs to have a grocery store as part of those plans
I figure they're going to be busy that week, so I may end up giving it some time before I even try to get in
there also seems to be just less stuff obstructing the view across the dining room
The pictures from inside Med Deli look like a huge improvement. It was always so dark inside there before and now it's very bright and clean
we are so back
However Malcolm Gladwell disgraced himself later in life, this was an important book that changed the discourse forever
the uk does have ludicrously draconian speech laws which are used as a cudgel for the government to control which ideas are legal, and that's bad, but graham linehan is a big dented goon whose downfall is righteous and entertaining, which is good, plus this is all british, which is not my problem
Guy like Whitlock has to really push the limits right now. There's no more Woke Sports Media to rail against, w/ Portnoy, McAfee et al having won the war. So you get a guy who was already sloppy and is now increasingly in desperation mode. (He's really bad at this, unlike a lot of his peers)
Holy shit: Stateline spoke to nearly a dozen firefighters, agency staffers and contractors, who said that top officials assigned to the fire deployed the crews to a remote location under false pretenses so federal agents could check their immigration status. www.hcn.org/articles/fir...
⚕️ Need to know who should get the flu, COVID-19, and RSV #vaccines this year? With the US #publichealth system in chaos, the Common Health Coalition produced this excellent graphic to help people prepare for the respiratory virus season.
i constantly think about this post
DC getting eric adams at the trade deadline is a huge win now move for the city. especially if we can move him to a secondary position and a powerless admin appointee bench role. new york also getting to clear payroll and move their rebuild window forward makes this win-win
am I supposed to know what a funicular is? is this something that’s common knowledge in the united states
Firefighters, famously, have a house they all live in, where they wait for people to call them, actually.
it would be so funny if trump's advisor have made this job for eric adams contingent, not solely on him dropping out, but on mamdani losing the election
I am about to lose so much money on a bet I placed 10 years ago that Justin Bieber would be America's first Swag Czar
how many more loses like this before Jordon realizes that she isn't building her brand around a winner and breaks up with Belichick?
I booked one last week and then cancelled it to change to a later date and closer location, and in that couple of minutes it all got shut down
I really hope this means they're putting Nicholas Hoult in this ridiculous Lex Luthor costume
I was just able to book a covid vaccine at CVS in North Carolina for tomorrow without needing a prescription from my doctor. Now let's see if that was an error and it gets cancelled before then
which one of them?
jobs are either "Grant Writer ($32,165–$33,165)" or "Senior Vice President of Child Slaughter ($650,000–$750,000, 401k/medical/dental/vision/you can touch the art at museums)"
wow is it possible for seven people to all be wrong about something? www.axios.com/2025/09/02/a...
if you say "during the pandemic" to refer vaguely to some time during the past 5 years, then you're advocating for eugenics
finally ditched spotify. not because they’re ripping off artists but because they can’t get it through their fucking heads that i don’t like “Electric Feel”
it's all been viral marketing for Spinal Tap II
Nice, I’ve already been researching pumpkin installation options
there is no reason to care what nate silver or the other glasses guys say about bluesky. why are you here? are you here for their approval? the discourse? i'm here to post about trump getting his turds removed and to like my friends' posts about sandwiches and yardwork
Inadvertently paused Miss Rachel looking like she’s staring down the opposing bench after draining a 3
50th anniversary
and what punishment does kawhi get, if anything? a suspension? have to return the money?
If I had that car, you couldn't stop me from trying to drive it down a set up steps in a European city
these people have no interest in the party winning or actually doing anything for voters as long as they themselves stay in power
I actually think Kamala Harris should run for the seat, I guess I’m more committed to protecting her than you are
When I was announced as the lead in a Doctor Who spinoff in 2023 Graham Linehan tweeted about me for TWO DAYS, tagging the BBC and others to say that I am pro-child abuse and they shouldn't work with me.
isn't it in theaters a week from Friday?
His trans daughter is on another magazine cover today
either a sign that The Paper is good, or a sign that NBC desperately needs this spinoff of The Office to be a big hit for them
The Dem primary for Senate in Maine now has an oyster guy and a beer guy. Don’t even come in this race if you’re not producing something delicious
No, but I would say those are great, and True Lies is good
True Lies is good
you see someone with a head this large and assume he must be a genius because his brain is so much bigger than that of a normal person, but that's just not true
I enjoyed this. And what an infectious laugh. ❤️ "Reporter left speechless after witnessing Japan's new $70 million Maglev train in action at 310 mph"
I feel like he has three things going for him: 1) those cars are smaller than most cars today, 2) they're moving pretty slowly, and 3) it's not in the United States
The load-bearing myth at the heart of UK politics is that the politicians and media are tolerant and decent and working people are knuckle-dragging bigots, but it's actually completely the other way around.
This is so embarrassing
it's got to be kind of a trip to be one of the 700 or so best people in the world at your profession, probably the best of anyone you knew growing up and into college, the elite among the elite at your calling, and then watch this guy outperform you, like, exponentially better than you ever could
They wanted to kill some Drug Guys for Fox News and they did. Simple as.
bluesky hasn’t become massive but it’s not because we’re an echo chamber, it’s because we’re annoying in a ton of other ways and i think that’s beautiful
Today I have learned that Alabama is too broke to win and that Alabama is too woke to win
It’s cool that this is just most media now.
you'd think the governor of illinois basically going "we're being invaded by an authoritarian" would be something you'd see real easy on the front page of most everything an hour later
ok, as somebody who goes to a lot of concerts and takes pictures/video, this might be the most useful new iPhone feature for me in years
@darthbluesky.bsky.social has anyone told you about this humble college football team
inject this directly into my eyeballs
Are we sure the laws pertaining to naming podcasts are the same in Australia as they are in the United States?
idk maybe im just a loser but i feel like there's a better dem strategy online than we're just gonna do 4chan memes too
