Hi! Allow me to reintroduce myself.

I'm an investigative reporter, author, and former White House correspondent.

I cover Trump, the broader far right, and the Democratic Party's internal dynamics.

I also verify people on Bluesky.

Here's how to see and request Verified badges! verified.quest

Yes!
The infuriating ways certain sports get region locked is why I point blank refuse to pay for a sky subscription to watch formula 1 and sail the high seas.

Would happily pay for f1tv, but if they do this regional not available crap then sorry lads I'm not rewarding it.

I haven't paid for the Raiders in a couple seasons because that level of play is just not worth any money. Out of market NFL is so expensive!
agree 100%. If you don't live near your favorite team where they are on free tv, you need ESPN, Peacock and Amazon Prime. Total bullshit. I'm glad I didn't subscribe to Peacock last night to see the Packers play like shit. If it isn't on free tv, I'm out.

The craziest bit is I pay for both and it still sucks!
They really hate the fans and want to extract as much as possible out of us. The whole shifting from USA/NBC/Peacock for matches has been so goddamned frustrating and annoying. Anything to find another way to get every penny out of us.

They don't realize we HATE them too.

This is what I want!
Still waiting for the PL to do their own streaming service. Would honestly pay for an EFL/PL service to see the top 4 divisions in a single place.

Also, anyone who responds to the merest mention of sports with some variation of "bread and circuses" or asking how I can watch when there are politics problems gets the insta block.

I cannot overstate the number of problems and annoyances it causes in my life when my EPL game is taken for the USA Network. I hate the USA Network with a passion. I hope they lose this deal.

Hope they beat Sunderland (since City plays them next).

Today's Raiders game is huge.

JUST LOSE BABY

The biggest issue there is when one of the garbage men gets ghost hacked by the puppet master
In Japan, you don’t find public garbage cans. People are expected to dispose of their personal refuse in their personal garbage cans. And everywhere is clean.

Good morning Bluesky! Is everyone ready to support @leedsunited.com this morning? I changed my whole schedule to watch the game #coffeewithhunter

Anecdotally, I have noticed what seems like a resurgence of the old school wire cans. I totally dig it from a nostalgia perspective, but it's otherwise not great they're still around.
Yes, and as an additional problem, we have a lot of public garbage cans that have no lid so even if you put garbage in it blows everywhere. Absolutely preposterous to have those in a public park.

General pickup in Upper Manhattan has been pretty good, but I'll add the caveat that oversize/bulk pickup has definitely lagged a bit.

We are in good shape only because of the BID crew (downtown Brooklyn).

A good review!
I’d say the opposite!
December 28, 2025 at 3:13 AM
We are getting conflicting reports!
This is true of my corner of Brooklyn. I've noticed more corner cans overflowing as well over the last 6-8 months

They're two days late as of now (counting the delay for Christmas). I wish I could say it's just a holiday thing but they are routinely one to two days late. Sometimes more for recycling. Block is currently a bit of a mess.
recently moved to a new neighborhood but I lived in one place for most of Adams and trash pickup was one of just several city services that totally tanked under him over there (PLG)

In my little corner of Brooklyn, one hallmark of the Eric Adams era has been garbage pickup being far less reliable than ever before. Has anyone else experienced this?
