@slateauto.bsky.social Are you going to participate in the California MyFirstEV program?

Looks like I'll be looking for a new email host. Because Migadu isn't working. Again.

Yay, Tariffs, so much winning. Thanks Trump, you asshole.

The wrong 80-year-old died.

🎲 I had a bag salad last night. Everything ok so far.

Exhibit 1 for his trial for violations of our First Amendment rights.

I've never seen a game so actively hostile to players as Rain World. Zero information on how to control your character. Apparently zero key or mouse bindings by default. I've had to alt-F4 out of it twice now because after the game starts, nothing works.

Me leaving the grocery store: "Man, all I need now is some yellow bumps to shake the ever living fuck out of my cart! That'd be great!"

Regime change begins at home.

I’d like to ask the men’s @usahockey.bsky.social team WHAT WERE YOU THINKING by admitting that lunkhead to your celebration, which he had zero part in? Asking for an entire country. …

Do people from Boston think that crows fly around saying "CAR! CAR!"?

If you send me an email with an unsubscribe link that takes me to a web page that then asks me what my email address is, you need to fuck off and turn in your developer card.

Voting NO on the DHS funding bill is the bare minimum. Backing Kristi Noem’s impeachment is the bare minimum. Holding law-breaking ICE agents legally accountable is the bare minimum. ICE is beyond reform. Abolish it.

Hoooly shit, when did Rotten Tomato's website get so _bad_?

I've given up on trying to get Kodi to ... work much at all. Jellyfin seems _much_ more friendly.

If you put this on a website in 2025, you've failed as a web developer. Idempotency for this sort of thing has been a solved problem since before the WWW.

Reposting this everyday until Pete Hagueseth faces justice for his crimes against humanity.

The real question is not "Why is Bluesky so left-coded," the real question is "Why can't the right exist in a social media environment without algorithmic assistance, where people can ignore them"

Socialism is what they called public power. Socialism is what they called social security. Socialism is what they called the growth of free and independent labor organizations. Socialism is their name for almost anything that helps all the people. —Harry Truman, 1952

New rule: People working with/under the executive branch are not eligible for Presidential pardons for crimes committed while doing so.

RIGHT ON 👊🏽 I voted YES on 50 (a temporary measure to level the playing field) and my ballot was already counted. Join me— remember to vote, and tell your friends and neighbors to do the same. #VoteYesOnProp50

YES ON 50

Early voting is underway for Prop 50 in California. I urge anyone in the state to vote yes. This isn’t a race to the bottom. It’s a means of avoiding the bottom. https://robertreich.substack.com/p/what-blue-states-should-do-when-red

In November, I am voting yes on Prop 50 and making sure my friends and family do too. This was legit my commute this morning. If you zoom in, there are buzzards flying overhead. TRUMP • REVENGE • CHAOS • CORRUPTION

Your threats are a joke & our jokes are threats! Got it.

And just like that, the right wing proved that the only problem they had with cancel culture, was that it was only ever done from the grassroots up, instead of hand-in-glove government-corporation style, as god had intended.

President Trump, His Supporters, and DHS Law Enforcement can, should, must, and will gargle thumbtacks. www.dhs.gov/news/2025/09...

This better secretly have a whole Onion Digital Surveillance Squad inside doing facial recognition on all the ICE agents

"only place I'd ever stop" ... "mob fights" Does he think that all non-Cracker-Barrel restaurants are some sort of post-apocalyptic Mad-Max-esque hellhole? WTF?

I'm 100% going to vote for CA redistricting in November, and I encourage anyone else in CA to do the same.

Thought of a joke: Wife: I asked you take out the trash ... Bill Withers: I know, I know, I know, I know, I know, I know ...
