It sure *feels* like I've watched things labeled smart make kids dumb.

Hey @mcuban.bsky.social , we've really gotta get the Lawrence (KS) PD on here. Legit one of the top social accounts.

So I've been thinking about @mcuban.bsky.social 's post for a few days now.

I've begun making the switch.

Thanks, Mark.

IF YOU BELIEVE THE MANY SHOULD HAVE CONTROL OVER THE FEW, this is your time.
As a decentralized platform, @bsky.app is probably the last, best chance for this to happen

This has nothing to do with me. I'm just stating the obvious.

It has everything to do with what the 1.2m @bsky.app users do.

The more I think about it, the wind here is like a super opinionated critic. It finds your weakest spot and then slices RIGHT THROUGH YOU TO THE BONE.

I'm fine. Really.

To walk around the Midwest in winter is to be surrounded by two groups of people: those suffering in the cold and those resembling an awkwardly overstuffed piece of furniture.

In the Midwest, the winter isn't so much about fight or flight. No, when that cold air smacks your face, it's more like fight or cry.

Kansas City/Midwest Winter Fashion Tip: Dress for skiing. And brunch. And a tornado.

At the same time.

You're welcome.

Wait. He's filed suit against others seeking — checks notes— "accountability for brazen election interference."

What is it the kids say? I can't even?

One of the myriad things I do in my free time (in addition to writing) is teaching myself random things. Several months ago, I expanded into abstract, experimental collage .

Was trying to think of something clever (Things I get paid to do for 200, Alex), but @alwayscoffee.bsky.social 's comment is just about perfect, no?

Some House Freedom Caucus members are screaming payback if Dems successfully force a vote on the House floor to release the Gaetz ethics report, saying it could lead to them getting other reports involving current or former Dem members, per Politico
