I think the audience for this joke is @loukas.bsky.social and maybe two or three others.

I saw a small exhibition of this in Sweden last year: really cool idea and execution.

Me, describing to someone a cool bird I saw, “It was black but when it flew I saw flashes of red feathers. I wonder what kind of bird it was.”

Them, “This might be disappointing but that was a red winged blackbird.”

There’s a reason The Onion came up with this article.

Now I get to tap translate, be told my phone doesn’t translate Swedish, close the dialogue box, and then tap “try google translate”. A real step backwards in functionality!

Robocop is also stabbed with a spear in the ribs just like Jesus was injured on the cross.

No.

Robocop is American Jesus.

Screenshot translation:

Daylight saving time is introduced on the last Sunday in March each year. In 2025, this will happen on the night between Saturday, March 29 and Sunday, March 30. The clocks are then set forward one hour, from 02:00 to 03:00. This means we lose an hour of sleep that night, but get brighter evenings during the summer months.

Skärmdump:
Sommartid införs den sista söndagen i mars varje år. År 2025 sker detta natten mellan lördagen den 29 mars och söndagen den 30 mars. Klockan ställs då fram en timme, från 02:00 till 03:00. Detta innebär att vi förlorar en timmes sömn den natten, men får ljusare kvällar under sommarmånaderna.

From Wikipedia:

In Germany, Bernhard's typefaces were initially favored by the Nazi Party, but were later banned under the mistaken assumption that he was Jewish (largely due to his Jewish-sounding birth name).

Calling in sick today.

The American in me wants to pop some Day Quill capsules and just power through, but that's one of the many American impulses it's best to not embrace.

I have photos somewhere of a 5 piece brass band, with drums, playing in the bleachers of a baseball game in Venezuela. A fantastic experience.

Fake Hafez: How a supreme Persian poet of love was erased That so many of the poems attributed to Hafez are fake reveals a Western appropriation of Muslim spirituality.

5 or 6 years ago I was trying to track down what that “translation” was all about. I found this article interesting:

If people can veto one candidate who thinks defending their human rights is a political liability, then they can sabotage any candidate who won’t defend their human rights.

Let’s wait to move forward on this until cars are causing fewer deaths and injuries in the Bay Area than bicycles.

The idea is that using Americans to only refer to people who live in the USA ignores that anyone who lives in North or South America is an American. I’m casually opposed to the word just bc it doesn’t sound right to me, pronunciation-wise, but I understand that repetition & exposure could change it.
