I mostly lurk. My dog is dumb.
Just learned that my bf has a completely different line for the expression “first the worst, second the best, third the ___”. Me, my friends, and a small selection of Gen Alpha niblings we polled think it’s “nerd” (with one variation of “turd”). My bf knows it as “third is one with the hairy chest”.

Did all of us play WoW? Is that another over represented cohort on Bluesky?
What Will Stancil the man did or did not say or believe is broadly irrelevant when discussing Will Stancil the MMO raid boss everyone logs on to fight with their buddies.

Over 2K at the Aliso Viejo protest, right in the middle of rich white southern Orange County. A towing bed with a cyber truck on it drove by and everyone cheered.

People have a hard time understanding that you can be racist without meaning to be. That’s why they think “I didn’t bring up race” or “I would say the same thing to a white person” are good defenses.

Watching the 50 years of SNL music doc, having the best time
Imo one of the reasons SNL is good and continues to be popular and relevant is *because* kids like it and always have. Adults take it too seriously, expect a greater hit rate of sketches. I don’t mean to sound like “comedy is above critique”, I just mean that… I think it’s cool that SNL is dumb.

I’m obsessed with the different realities where for some people Robbie Williams is a huge pop star and for everyone else it doesn’t even register as the name of a famous person.

James Bond movies have a lot of Looney Tunes in them and THATS GOOD
I think Casino Royale and Skyfall for sure, but for the others it will depend on how many beers I've had. I rewatched Goldfinger the other day and was shocked at how much of the plot was just "James Bond plays a series of pranks on a murderous supervillain for nearly 2 hours"

“Oops all witches”-ass society
commenting on something happening in some corners of tiktok right now but this is a general observation: it is absolutely brain-breaking how so many people have lost the ability to disagree with someone without denouncing them as ontologically evil or pathological or whatever else

Much like its over represented population of former policy debaters and jeopardy contestants, Bluesky is dense with Terry Pratchett fans. Almost too many really. But how many of them named their WoW toons after Discworld characters and places, bc I had a server full of them.

I enjoy seeing people re-find each other online.
“Hi!”

It’s cute.

I have faced fascism before, in this very country. I was one of 120,000 Japanese Americans summarily rounded up and expelled from our homes at gunpoint, all for the crime of looking like the people who bombed Pearl Harbor.

Day one working at a 4-day voting center! Apparently about 85% of people in this county do vote by mail, so it’s not busy (today). Plenty of normal people and a handful of “interesting” ones so far.
