MRSA, if you're listening,

there is an extremely long list of people who need to be held accountable in the next administration but sending the DOGE boys to big boy jail needs to be near the top of the list

Italy may have beat us in Baseball but we’re going to beat them in something they invented: being fascist.

the early 90s LRT optimism vibes in this photo are incredible

Merchant vessel Seaway Hawk transporting decommissioned U.S. Navy Avenger-class Mine Countermeasures Ships USS Devastator, USS Dextrous, USS Gladiator and USS Sentry in the Delaware Bay to unload in Philadelphia tomorrow - March 9, 2026 SRC: FB- Delaware River Shipping / Andy Wyrick 📷

We live in a world beyond parody. The United States has had four minesweeper vessels in the Persian Gulf for 35 years. Just yesterday these ships arrived in Philadelphia to be decommissioned, a day before Iran announces that they are mining the Strait of Hormuz.

This isn't funny. My CENTCOM gets very anxious when he has to do something besides hit empty patches of desert with TLAMs.

My theory remains: Platner does not think the Nazis were right, but he does think they were cool

I think I would like it if we imported like a super diet version of Japan's work culture. Seniors support juniors, we thank each other for working hard, upper management ritually humiliates themselves at press conferences when something goes wrong. I think that would be better than what we have now.

Without traffic diverters to keep cars on the arterial, the greenways become an impassable parking lot. This makes them nearly unusable as a biker as we are forced to either sit in line with the cars, zigzag between them, or ride on the sidewalk.

I cannot imagine anything sadder than going to write a post on LinkedIn and then clicking the “rewrite with AI” button. If you aren’t confident you can meet the baseline tone of LinkedIn? I dont know, man.

Eagle Ed thought he could just threaten the Jesuits and walk away.

bluesky being immediately negatively polarized into going with skeets because we were asked not to was the first sign that we were going to make it as a posting site

every true posting forum declares forever war against the mods

sorry to be an old-fashioned scold but there is something deeply pathetic about being an adult and shoplifting just because you kinda feel like the rules don't apply to you

also something happening here (you can see it w/ the price of oil today) that ties into my larger feeling of *too much happening and too fast.* struggling to explain it but it feels like the dynamics of the physical world have been replaced by online ones. you get trump trying to ctrl-z the economy

to add to this: not sure how many people realize how many active "small family farms" in the USA have been economically unviable for decades already and basically exist as a heavily subsidized hobby for the owners

If I had a dollar for every person who asks how defense attorneys sleep at night, I’d be able to pay my student loans. If I had a dollar for every person who asks how prosecutors sleep at night, I could maybe buy a pack of gum. Broken society.

indeed, Bluesky's inherent overall hostility to AI means that the AI enthusiasts still willing to hang out here are usually far smarter and more thoughtful than the absolute dribbling freakshow AI cultists who dominate Twitter/X

The U.S. and Europe have to someday realize that what the Israeli government envisions for Iran is the largest humanitarian catastrophe of the century so far

if you're wondering what this means for the water situation this year, the answer involves a lot of hyperventilating

"Just take transit" I say to the guy who could only afford to live in a car-dependent suburb because we priced everyone out of the city by making it illegal to build more city.

This is their head of strategy?

Everything’s fine

WTI crude is up 24% 187 upvotes 64 comments Inevitable-Scheme-38 1h Edited This is what we get for Abraham Lincoln not letting General Sherman absolutely shitface the entire South. This is what we get for letting Southerners vote in the first place. Get ready folks, the best is yet to come! The dumbest people in the US are the ones with all the voting power, yay!!

your average r/stocks poster now has "William T Sherman didn't go far enough" as a baseline, things are going Well for capitalism I see

This is how I access Bluesky

me paying $30 in gas to buy imported things that have been hit with tariffs bc joe rogan is learning about politics at age 58

Real patriots ride the train.

The belief in trans rights entering the median voters body as Trump makes gas cost $8/gallon

Netanyahu right now

Ideally novel technologies like “books” would make it unnecessary to keep rediscovering the stove is hot every 40-80 years, but since we seem to be struggling with “Nazis are bad” I won’t hold my breath for intergenerational retention of trade policy lessons.

We ask so much of our children so that people can drive as fast as they want
