Engruntled Interloper

We need a new word to describe the relationship between a stalker and a stalkee to apply when the stalkee really likes the attention.

@newdigitalnow.bsky.social So who are you? Names, please, especially of the one who is running your text spam operation claiming to be responsible for No Kings.

These are now known as muskworms. www.forbes.com/sites/maryro...

I know this means killing the inner political Manichaean in all of our heads, but if you’ve ever said “why did the relatively sane republicans not simply kill Trump’s rise early on, before the party was completely lashed to him,” well…

Just want to congratulate Perry County (TN) Sheriff Nicky Weems on choosing to make his county pay $835,000 + lawyer costs for his 1st Amendment education. Perry County is home to about 9,126 people, so that's about $91.50 each. I wonder if they consider it well-spent.

Look, folks, there is NO EVIDENCE that Jeffrey Epstein is Barron Trump’s biological father. ALL OF THESE RUMORS that Epstein is the secret father of Barron Trump need to stop right now. It’s just salacious gossip. Be better than that. Be best.

Whip the Dem caucus, and whip it good. Given the small GOP margin, this may be passable if every Democrat votes for it.

But also, I would ask that people try to have at least a little bit of grace in not immediately jumping to conclusions that someone explaining something is endorsing everything bad. Life is short. No one needs that shit. Off to do some work.

Now that we're on to the stage of companies beginning to rehire after being... overeager with LLMs, we should watch which similarly situated ones don't. Those were just stealth layoffs.

Interacting with an LLM is like talking to characters from a cheap TV drama. It enables you to ask the TV doctor for a diagnosis or the TV hacker how to break in to the Fed, and it will give you an answer that looks plausible to a layperson who is half-paying attention.

After NATO’s “concern” over russian drones breaching Poland’s airspace — with some not even shot down — I’m convinced: NATO should be applying to join Ukraine, not the other way around.

At the ICE raid and subsequent community resistance in Paramount, California this morning, this skater kid ate dozens of munitions from Border Patrol agents, walked away slowly and flipped them off.

@booker.senate.gov I just wanted to say thank you.

@schiff.senate.gov

@schumer.senate.gov You know, if you're done with your laundry and caught up on your sleep and there's nothing good on the tube.

Europe is beginning to think through new realities. This and other types of economic realignment have highly significant effects on how countries interact. Disagreeing with friends is one thing; making them not trust you makes them not friends. www.theregister.com/2025/02/26/e...

I really can't tell if @lynch.house.gov is more arrogant than he is clueless, or the other way around. I feel pretty confident that he is going learn a civics lesson about who decides what after demonstrating clear unsuitability for public office. www.the-downballot.com/p/morning-di...

@msnbc.com literally white-washing their lineup is sadly typical. Not only do I fully expect their new master to be an asshole about it, they're throwing away a huge chunk of their talent. Reason #371 normal people tune out legacy media - not just the propaganda - you also just suck.

Apple's customer service is brittle and shitty these days. They're a vending machine with a smug affect, which is a really unappealing thing to deal with. I'd rather talk to a check cashing place; at least the smarm is honestly earned there. Last time I go to one.

Folks, we're really down to the wire on this and are currently pretty far short of the funding threshold to make our game a reality. We're still hoping that we get a last minute rush, so if you'd like to support the work we do... check out our game. www.techdirt.com/2024/12/18/d...

Feature Request: The block/mute lists should show the date the block happened, and accept a note, so we can remember a bit of context. I know there are people I block/will block that I may change my mind on later. Being somewhat new, I'm not sure how best to propose this to the Sky Wizards.
