Where are my 3d printer people? I have some questions, like how long does it take to print something the size of a Lego figure? How much does it cost to print something that size?

Remember that time the Vice President shot his friend in the face while hunting and the friend apologized from the hospital bed with holes in his face, for stepping in front of the birdshot?

Can you imagine if Dick Cheney were VP on January 6th? Does the VP have immunity, too? Cheney was a spook.

AI is what conservatives think DEI is--a way for unqualified people to become 'musicians'. If you don't put in the time, effort and work to grow your talent, why do you want to be a music creator? Oh that's right. The American dream of getting attention, fame and money that's not warranted

Hello to all my frayed knot threads friends! I’m probably going to move here to BlueSky more and give Zuck and Meta less of the limited engagement. I got the threads invite two months before the one from BlueSky. So I didn’t use it and stayed there, my mistake.

Who’s excited about #Andor Season 2?

The #skeletoncrew episode 8 was epic. Better than I initially expected. I predicted early on that Jod wasn’t a Jedi or a padawan before order 66.

The story is tragic, a Jedi found him and began training him and the Inquisitors made him watch while they killed her.

@deirdreassenza.bsky.social somehow I missed your exit and the thread hanging from our knot.

Have you heard of pyramid lake? I saw a video on it and because it mentioned the Truckee river, it made me think about the Ice Witch.

Hello new friends. I’m a lifelong Star Wars fan and while I don’t like the sequels as much as the prequels and the prequels as much as the originals, I love it all.

I’m a Star Trek fan, too.

I only mention this because I’m a leftist. A socialist. And a communist.

“Racialized” is a good term to use to describe people who aren’t of European descent. Their “races” were assigned to them by Europeans and they’ve been racialized and oppressed as a result.

Just remember all of those pastors that said Kamala stood for Satan and that Trump stood for God……when Trump tanks the economy, tell those pastors that you no longer have the ability to give to their offering plates. Let’s see how good that seed philosophy works then.

@lizzobeeating.bsky.social followed me. I’m not sure if I am happy or nervous. I’ve got to bring my A game. This isn’t a drill people, this is the majors. A new league.

Ok, maybe I just hit the puffco 3DXL and I’m a little high. But she did follow me.

Congrats to @bluesky for all the new users

My 2 cents. Find every news source the has an RSS feed or equivalent and create accounts that that show their public deeds on here under @johndoetimesfeed

That way we all get access to news without having to wait for them to create accounts first.

He said this as an unelected bureaucrat

“We want to go in and slash and burn the bureaucracy to help Americans, stimulate the economy and restore self-governance. The people we elect to run the government, they are not even the ones who run the government anymore, it's these unelected bureaucrats.”

If your pastor sided with Trump, be sure to remind him about that when Trump destroys the very capabilities that you rely on. When they kill overtime, those Trump supporters won’t be able to put as much in the Sunday offering plates. Do not go in debt for anyone who supports Trump.

Because if we wanted to see that stuff, we'd be over on the hellsite (or following those people here). Bluesky has a much cheerier culture because we don't inflict awfulness on each other.

I’m also a Nerd. I go through phases between favoring SW over ST then I flip flop.

I own a Steam Deck but I haven’t used it much because I like to play with the people around me. I’m getting another one soon, maybe the white one, so I can do just that.

Diablo II and Dungeon Seige are my favorites
