Why do all electric cars have to look like that?

The way I would dive the opposite way of a Salah penalty kick. That thing was a fucking rocket.

Sitting down when you get off the plane is so vastly different from sitting inside the plane.

Why is Steve Bannon still getting dedicated real estate on the pages of the New York Times. He’s a washed up, nobody, old man podcaster with no actual political influence or relevance. I don’t care what he thinks.

Let me get this straight. Petro calls for dignified transit. Trump threatens tariffs. Petro smacks Trump in a post threatening his own higher tariffs. And Trump agrees to what Petro asked for. And yet NYT is calling this *Petro* backing down?

The new Photos app on iPhone fucking sucks. I just wanna see the pics I took. Why did you do this?

Spending my weekend watching soccer with my wife is just… the greatest. No notes.

The #Wicked movie has made a serious conceptual case that Elphaba should never have been played by white women to begin with.

Why the fuck haven’t #LiverpoolFC offered Salah a new contract yet? This man is saving us every week.

I really hope my presence on Bluesky can feel a little more useful than my presence on X. Like, I don’t need to go viral, but… SOME engagement would rule.

I don't know if anyone else gets anxious about phone calls but a little tip I've learned is: if there is a phone call that I don't want to make, before I start dialing the number, I carefully hold the phone in my hand & toss it gently into a lake. I hope this advice helps others.

I am startlingly unsure of what to use bluesky for. Is it what I used Twitter for? Posting into the void? Random writerly things? I use Threads for unhinged jokes, which feels wrong here. Poop!

Gee it is just a total mystery why racists & white supremacists keep getting in power in a country founded on native genocide & chattel slavery of Africans. Now how did this even happen?

If you’re having trouble writing and you have a cool therapist, tell your therapist you’re having trouble writing. There’s a small chance you’ll immediately feel like writing. Happened to me today!

What do we call posts over here on Bluesky? Birds?
