this is a good point but fortunately he’s got 50 years worth of career to excavate
mostly politics. some Seahawks. Normal Man. oh and one more thing you aren’t going to like what comes after America

we’re about due for somebody to make a million dollars covering Romeo and Juliet I think
see, that’s how you do it
we’re talking about Mark Knopfler over here
he wrote a song about a Pynchon novel about surveyors, he’s never beating the dad rock allegations (the song is very good)
I can never tell if Knopfler is appropriately rated or massively underrated. every time people talk about him it’s super complimentary but people should talk about him more
very much appreciate it!
I’m a Popeye’s man but that’s geography as much as anything else
they had it first but everyone else has improved on it at this point
he’s converging with Tom Homan, to both of their detriment
which side you got
going to need a Tale of the Tape between this guy and Markwayne before he takes office, inshallah
appreciate the hustle though, sincerely, don’t think that was an op
yup, think somebody got a little overexcited
this was less a subtweet and more a prayer
haven’t seen any, actually
Nadler
cultivate a feed such that interesting but wrong speculation gets debunked before you RT it imo
if you like the old war horses retiring, can’t hurt to say a couple nice things when they hang em up pour encourager les autres
a watched base never balls
this is just getting discover feeded
I’m pretty sure Nate Silver knows
this is a good idea
but people are doing idea discovery on Substack now, even with its very obvious ideological bent, because it’s the best product in the space. and that’s better than marinating in the X sewer but still a lot worse than it could be.
Twitter’s gone. there’s a residual entity there built around crypto pumps and muscle memory and Elon’s willingness to keep on shoveling, but as a vital force it’s spent.
the thing I think people don’t want to deal with is that it’s not Bluesky v Twitter, it’s Bluesky v Substack
hock is ropepunk
it’s more of a mood than an ideology
my wife was trying to Frankenstein together classroom coverage for her school and it was a constant rolling logic game
“why do you simply not quarantine the teachers” well, see, parents get very snippy about safety protocols after people get COVID and also none of the kids are vaxxed due to the linear nature of time
ironic that a senator from so far out in the pacific is primarily interested in representing The Atlantic
it is very inconvenient logistically when you can’t operate consistently because half your staff is quarantining at any given time
Elon has never read the warnings on the box of anything he’s taken
baseball giving a shit about PEDs seems so quaint now
MAHA’s central thesis is that modern medicine is bad, unless it’s gear
now do services imo
that was a pretty filthy pitch that got Matsui
yes there’s highlights
ichiro threw a complete game one-hit shutout against a team of japanese high school girls yesterday. he gets a team of japanese ex-mlb players (dice-k, hideki matsui, etc) and throws a complete game in an exhibition hs girls all stars every couple years in japan.
it’s pretty good, I have no idea if it’s British or not
I don’t fully understand what they’re doing but they seem to get a lot out of it? yeah that tracks
more efficiently shaved whales?
that’s really interesting, would love to see the distribution
still might, let’s see what happens this season. Thought CFB opening weekend was encouraging here
"chatGPT 5 is like having a bunch of phds in your pocket" here's ten trillion dollars "bluesky is having an *actual* bunch of phds in your pocket" dying platform. it disgusts me
gender is software send tweet
yes you absolutely need clip accounts
pretty good time to get on the Ravens wagon, maaaybe on the Commanders
yeah, I’m not sure how much the franchises per se matter but the whole apparatus does. it is a bit of a problem that sports gambling is such a big part of the driver; X is always going to be better aligned with that than Bsky
Normal Men, if you will
football I think
not thrilled about it tbh
that last part is the taste of the Loop
well, we killed tourism and also there are two dozen competing casinos in your pocket now
first you sack the quarterback then you worry about grabbing the fumble
“just like nonna used to make it” kid, it’s time you knew about your grandmother
X is Tokyo Rose/Lord Haw Haw with "make your balls bigger than asteroids with shit we stole from Soviet Biopreparat" ads
I can appreciate the hustle even as I reject the premise
there was a place in Vancouver once years ago that did venison and soapberries and clams, I’ll never remember the name but I’ll never forget the meal
this is a very good music video imo
My favorite example of this was being surprised at how popular Kentucky Fried Chicken was in Taipei, then having that topped by seeing the KFCs in Hong Kong offering "Taiwan-style" KFC on their menu.
Eugene Hütz absolutely 100% believes in his schtick so hard he makes you believe too and I think that’s beautiful
oh hell yeah
they fought wars for spices. I think this is a reactionary impulse enabled by unprecedented bounty
which are, of course, substantially Levantine fusion
I don’t know what to tell you, it is literally all fusion everywhere forever and it’s good
tbf you guys also did this with Sephardic Jews and fish and chips and probably a lot of other things too, you’ve had immigrants quite a while
food is maybe the most harmless thing we can possibly fight over
Brits correctly rallying to the defense of British culinary innovation chicken tikka masala is heartwarming, as always.
tbf I think the bar is higher (but lower than it is for LLM product) for a lot of other creative work done using advanced tools. I’m more interested in your watercolor than I am in the photo album you ran through Prisma.
I think not all creative work is interesting and the bar is a lot higher for LLM product.
also a shitload of local federal LEOs
might be worth pulling the followers-only replies ripcord, I’m pretty close to doing it
Friday is what they said
they’re going to do all of it and it won’t be enough
we know he’s sensitive to it because he or they are signing his tweets now and doing active pushback via posts. And it’s not like he’d have a hard time getting press with video in to wherever he is
this isn’t even subtext
not that I’m aware of!
I’m not sure it was elective, just not emergency
my understanding is that it was a repost
always be manifesting
I was like “fuck he’s fine” yesterday morning but subsequent lack of evidence has me wondering. like he’d make a point of saying something shitty to the press pool, no? that’s kind of his thing
just temperature-checking here
how sure are we that Trump is ambulatory right now actually
when a judge gets woken up at two in the morning to deal with your bullshit it is generally advisable to stop producing new bullshit such that they can get some sleep at some point the next day
I mean we have kind of a lot of reports of her having some fun with it
he’d pretty clearly be the best position player on half the teams in the league and we should appreciate that more
I do kind of think “buy everyone in the country an iPad every two years” is underrated as potential policy
I’m forever near a stereo saying, ‘What the fuck is this garbage?’ And the answer is always SubwayTakes.
I absolutely do not!
I was like, what in the tik tok censorship is happening here
going to need somebody to explain this to me as if I were a very small child
it was not, no
I understand it only in flashes; the internet’s really got its tentacles into me
German pacifists be like
One of the way they are making us less safe in DC is initiating police chases and causing crashes: www.washingtonpost.com/dc-md-va/202...
everybody’s worried about what happens next and when it’s going to happen to or around them
I think the psychic toll of the law enforcement stuff (as contrasted to the ICE snatch squads) is larger than its other harms but I really do want people to understand that the psychic toll is significant and you can see its marks on people
