Hey Bluesky!

Curious how you all are handling the influx of the traitors from the Whitehouse?
Block? Ignore? Harass?

@scalzi.com about 1/2 through Starter Villain. Excellent! Funny! Clever! Sorry I started reading your work so late! Keep it up!

Weird. Even after firing a career statistician who probably cares more about getting his numbers right than keeping his job, those damn job numbers suck again.

Gotta be a conspiracy!

“The flight away from some long-term bonds has coincided with a depreciation in the value of the U.S. dollar. Its value against other currencies plunged about 11% over the first half of 2025, the biggest decline in more than 50 years, a Morgan Stanley report last month found.”

Looks like most birds have fledged, have not done a nest check recently except spot checks when dealing an emergency. Anyhow,things are looking great for the colony,I will miss them when they head to the Amazon (many fly over the Gulf of Mexico to get there, some travel over land ). #purplemartin

Fledglings are starting to appear in the colony. There are a couple hundred birds raising Cain out there.
Just sent in poop samples to Colby College in Maine so they can do DNA testing to see what the chicks are being fed. Science is cool.

You kids carry on with the political hoopla, but if it becomes too much, feast your eyes on these beautiful Purple Martin chicks. Life will seem better, at least for a minute! And consider, in about 45 days these little rascals will be headed to Brazil.

@michellebeadle.bsky.social sports fan here, but not an obsessive one. Therefore, I love your show. Adam Shein is painful to listen to. Mad dog is interesting, but he goes off on tangents that I have no need for. You guys keep it about Sports, but are willing to diverge. Stephen A? Hard pass on him.

Fog behind the purple Martin colony. Had 301 eggs, 16 itty bitty chicks. About 80 pairs.

There is stock market manipulation occurring on a massive scale. You KNOW trump is letting his cronies know when he he going to make a market moving “announcement” so they can cash in.

I wish we were a nation of laws again. These fuckers would all be in jail.

“Apple shares shed 2% after Trump posted on Truth Social that iPhones must be made in the U.S. and if they are not "a tariff of at least 25% must be paid by Apple to the U.S."

What Dumb Dumb fails to understand is that folks who buy iPhones will pay the tariff. That man is flat stupid.

The purple Martin Colony is filling up. 84 cavities available, nests in 41 of them. Eggs and cute babies come soon!!

Chairman Powell said markets needed more clarity on tariffs.
Stock markets immediately plummets.

Is it possible folks have figured out these clowns could not provide clarity even if they knew what they were doing?

We deserve this for being lightweights and not sending him to prison.

Just a couple dozen purple martins gooning around.
