Lawyer, from New England. Celtics fan. Love Maine; grew up near Boston. Married to first girl I ever dated. Two great sons, and family. Lucky that way. Like to build boats and hike in spare time.
At the Hawks game. Celtics had a good Q1 but have not been moving the ball on offense in Q2. Need more D. White. And also to shoot better than 23% 3PT.

Also, what happened to the philanthropy part of the deal? Unless, of course, bribing politicians is now considered philanthropic.

Would you be okay with Bluesky allowing advertising if that would help it remain financially viable and roll out new features?
Bluesky leaders have said that if ads are introduced, they’ll prioritize user intent and avoid intrusive practices to align their monetization strategies with user values.

Um, will you become our new Head of HHS, please? You are squeezing inefficiency out of the system.
If you want to understand why healthcare pricing is horrific, the first thing to know is that our system puts 100% of the credit risk for deductibles, copays and co-insurance on hospitals and doctors. That's insane.

Now that the U.S.-based news shows are either MAGA (FOX etc) or moving to sanewashing Trump and focusing on political horseraces (CNN, MSNBC), what are well-respected international TV news sources that are not owned by U.S. oligarchs?
BBC news?

This is sadly correct. Dems need to repeat the same simple message. Nuance and policy don’t work.
Truth is a loser and grievance is a winner. Perception is reality. Those are the biggest lessons I learned.

Seems like Scheirman is doing well in the G league. Do you think that augurs well for him in the NBA, where his start was inauspicious at best. Not even sure he hit a single 3 point shot in preseason.

I would also be happy to pay to keep the site clean and useful.
i would happily pay a few dollars a month to keep this place viable.
Here's how the Bluesky team has described future plans to make the protocol and platform financially sustainable: developing a subscription model for extra features like high-quality video and customizations, while keeping all basic features free bsky.social/about/blog/1...

The banality of evil…
I feel mislead by all dystopian literature. It's supposed to be a powerful authoritarian government that lords over a cowering population, and and we just need need a few brave acts of heroism to give the people the courage to rise up.
Instead it's just half the country being dumb and mean.

Well, I just burned the boats. I deactivated X/Twitter. It was once a good site to follow my favorite sports teams and other things. Not anymore. I hope and trust it will be better here.
