For all those celebrating how great Bluesky is, how it’s like it used to be at the other place before it scaled…
Maybe it’s like that first Shake Shack burger from Madison Square Park? Before there were hundreds of shacks, including one in Dubai International Airport?

Good morning, Bluesky. Today would have been Rob Hiaasen’s 67th birthday. Last week, HH Hiaasen’s memorial installation, Complete the Day, was installed in City Hall’s South Gallery, asking visitors to consider how they would complete the days of loved ones taken by gun violence. Please visit.

Has anyone noticed if the Washington Post covered Will Lewis’s resignation/firing?
Search results in its app yield nada. And the only recent result of the new CEO was when he was appointed CFO.
When I search site:washingtonpost.com in Google also get nothing.

Aha, thanks. So if Haaland hadn't touched him, the goal would stand.

Not a rules expert by any means, just confused: If a defender can pull a shirt while the ball keeps going into the net on its own momentum, how is that not a goal?

[Ali MacGraw] She is a truly terrible actress, of the nostril school. (Did she study under Natalie Wood?) As the camera comes closer, the nostrils start flexing—not just for anger, for any emotion...When she's really working hard, she adds a trembling lip. (1978)

Wore my Everton scarf to the bakery, where a stranger offers me his sympathies:
- When I was a kid, they were top six
- Well who do you support? I ask.
- Chelsea.

I thought that box on the right is dynamically generated?
If so, the algorithm needs tuning.
If not, brilliant mistake or act of sabotage?
Anyway you slice it, someone is going apeshit right now. And I imagine there will be more than one meeting to discuss.
