I've been kicking and screaming (okay whining to my handful of politically-inclined friends) that Spanish-language fake news/hard right media is a huge part of Florida's rightward swing in the last decade.

I am enjoying it so far, but I wish there were some spaces that didn't feel engineered to be tricky. Like maybe I just want to run through an earlier part of the game smacking things around for a few minutes before going back to the grind. Not every single jump/fight/etc needs to be a trap.

Could the Mets borrow that witch real quick?
Guy Person (@dimsmellofmoose.bsky.social) reply parent
If nothing else, don't you have to call time after that third down so you can get the ball back with ten seconds?
Guy Person (@dimsmellofmoose.bsky.social) reply parent
Dumb bloop away from getting out of it with zero runs, too!

I might be misremembering this but I'm pretty sure a friend of mine asked Samuel Delany to autograph his copy of Hogg and even Delany himself was kinda like "really dude?"

If Purdy can come back relatively soon and be okay, they can weather this, because seriously that schedule is absurd.

It is the only thing she posts about. You'd think she'd post about her writing / intellectual property, or her life, or other things going on in the world. But she doesn't.

He was mean and had an accent that people associated with intelligence and class. That's about it.

It's important to remember that he wasn't actually witty.

Doesn't help that the Niners traded that pick for a worse RB!
Guy Person (@dimsmellofmoose.bsky.social) reply parent
I remain mad that the Niners benched Mason once CMC came back instead of using him to help keep CMC fresh. And extra mad that we traded him just to have to use the pick we got for Brian Robinson (plus there was a pick swap in MN's favor on that trade, too).
Guy Person (@dimsmellofmoose.bsky.social) reply parent
It took me a few months to get the hang of it. Tried a different nose piece and a lot of experimenting with face tape to keep things in place. But I'm a fan now.

Former University of South Dakota Coyote Andrew Van Ginkel.

They're convinced that there's a scoreboard somewhere and that putting up a fight but losing that fight is the worst possible thing.
Guy Person (@dimsmellofmoose.bsky.social) reply parent
It's telling that "If you don't get it, they make you feel guilty" is the worst punishment imaginable to this guy.

No, the joke is that NYT will interview lots of people until it finds one person that it can use to push an anti-left view, even if the first 99 interviewees said the opposite.

Tebow showed some slight baseball skills. Made it to AAA, had a functional if not exciting slash line the year before in AA. The best part is that scouts said his worst tool was his arm.
Guy Person (@dimsmellofmoose.bsky.social) reply parent
Spanish-language fake news radio and internet are huge factors here.

Between them, cops generally, and the youths, feels like we're really sleeping on just how much roids/hgh are causing problems throughout society.

This is fair, but also, hard rolls.

This is like when my dad deleted a whole bunch of my homework word docs because the computer was running out of space.

Democrats need to advertise the party brand in some positive fashion. Every Democrat, whether these sorts of lameasses or better progressive ones, runs on "I'm not like other Democrats."
Guy Person (@dimsmellofmoose.bsky.social) reply parent
I'm usually pro Mendy but boy you gotta pinch run there.
Guy Person (@dimsmellofmoose.bsky.social) reply parent
There are maybe, MAYBE, a dozen instances of this across the entire country. Probably fewer. Why does this need to be addressed nationally?

The second circuit (where she was convicted) has already ruled on her appeal. It's now going to the Supreme Court. Which is the same Supreme Court no matter what state she's in.
Guy Person (@dimsmellofmoose.bsky.social) reply parent
Source for that? You appeal your conviction in the jurisdiction you were convicted.
Guy Person (@dimsmellofmoose.bsky.social) reply parent
That's going to be heard in the jurisdiction she was tried in, I believe.

We've had neighbor kids over lately and boy, coherent structured episodic TV seems much better than YouTube content.
Guy Person (@dimsmellofmoose.bsky.social) reply parent
A lot. That might help save us, even.
Guy Person (@dimsmellofmoose.bsky.social) reply parent
Also this is a dumb way of looking at things but as someone who lives in the middle of the country the deck is specifically stacked against CA and NY. So he's got that against him, then add in that he sucks.
Guy Person (@dimsmellofmoose.bsky.social) reply parent
This is very good.

Amazon lost money but they didn't lose money per transaction. The current AI approach feels like that old joke of, "sure, we're selling at a loss, but we make up for it in volume."

Lincoln AND Omaha!?!? (Not quite accurate for those either)

Call them all wusses. "Wuss" is the right level of mocking without verging into any sort of toxicity.

He once said on air that he never hit a batter intentionally. On May 14, 1994, he intentionally walked the bases loaded, gave up a grand slam, and drilled the next batter square in the back, setting off a huge ball.

Blooper looks like Brian Snitker.

Yeah I was sitting here going, "that whale thing." Thanks for that.

At some point, someone's gonna have to figure out how to make money on it. That's all.

Given all the power consumption and lack of profitability, it might go away, or at least turn into a different consumer product than "ChatGPT as much as you want for free."
Guy Person (@dimsmellofmoose.bsky.social) reply parent
Their insistence that everything run through department leaders is gonna be one of the things that saves us. Like, all sorts of important good things won't happen, but a lot of terrible things won't happen as well because, like, Sean Duffy isn't gonna be bothered to push a button every time.
Guy Person (@dimsmellofmoose.bsky.social) reply parent
Most of my picks have been covered here, but I'll throw The Notwist's Neon Golden and Okkervil River's Black Sheep Boy into the mix.

He's a good model for how to talk. Stop saying Trump is threatening the ideals that we hold dear etc etc. Start saying Trump sucks.

The player voting apparently happens in late May/early June, so basically what you said.

Thing is, it is a dead giveaway in writing that otherwise feels like AI. Not all em dash use is AI, but a ton of AI-written essay/academic stuff uses emdashes.
Guy Person (@dimsmellofmoose.bsky.social) reply parent
Irrational numbers are horrifying. It annoys me when people treat approximations as if they are pi. March 14 isn't "pi day" because 3.14 isn't pi. No amount of digits is pi. Pi is something that can't be expressed in digits. Which is terrifying.

It takes what, 6-9 months to get there? Say we get faster and it's half of the low end of that. And say we get things more comfortable (and solve all the health issues and body changes). At best, we are talking about the equivalent of a 90-day plane ride. Ew. Eeeeewwww.
Guy Person (@dimsmellofmoose.bsky.social) reply parent
"Speed up approval" is vague dumb nonsense. Everyone wants things to be faster!

Waste of a solid username there.

Gotta push more "Democrats good" stuff. Feels like every Democrat since 2010 (congressional candidates moreso than presidential ones) runs on "I'm not like other Democrats."

Almost all of the hidden money belongs to people outside South Dakota (and often outside the US). South Dakotans just tend to it like some sort of garden.
Guy Person (@dimsmellofmoose.bsky.social) reply parent
That's North Dakota. South Dakota is full of trust money.

Odds they wanted a word that started with J because AJI sounds like AGI and maybe that would trick a few people?

The election was decided by people who googled "did Biden drop out" the morning of the election.

I'm all for replacing older reps with younger ones, but there isn't really a mechanism to kick them out other than running against them in a primary.

It is bewildering to me that "vaccines are good" isn't a talking point for Democrats.

Nic Cage and Sean Connery break into Alcatraz is the best movie of all time. It's kind of weird that the best movie of all time was made by Michael Bay. But look at the world.

I remember something from a while back (decade or two) that said medical doctors were pretty evenly split politically but dentists skewed heavily conservative.

So many of the worst men are on roids and other PEDs.

Obviously it's too small a sample to mean anything, but I'm still gonna relish that they've been bad since going to the White House.

He somehow runs chest-first.
Guy Person (@dimsmellofmoose.bsky.social) reply parent
Same with the volume of steroids/hgh/other PEDs in the men. It's all professional wrestling aesthetics. And like, 80s/90s wrestling.

People don't realize how much America views religion through a Christian lens. Like using "faith" to mean religion. Faith means belief. For a lot of Jews, "belief" isn't central, practice is. You do certain things because you're Jewish. Whether or not you "believe" doesn't really enter the picture.

America really did not shut down much compared to most of the rest of the world. Some states/cities did for several months, and COVID brought a ton of misery and trauma, but for people who didn't want to be "shut down", there was a lot still out there.
