Following because I always want to talk about Riverdale

Fantastic!

Super random re: #horseracing - I have vhs tapes of Kentucky derby/triple crown and breeders cup races from 90s/early 2000s. I recorded the broadcasts. Would anyone have interest before I toss them? @rogueclown.bsky.social @tgenaro.bsky.social @thesirbarton.bsky.social @horseygort.bsky.social

You’ve been kidnapped. The characters from the last TV show you watched are trying to rescue you. Who’s coming to save you?

I maintain that most raw milk evangelists only know about cows as abstract concepts, and have never actually seen one in real life

there are queens and then there's the woman who made sure the scathing songs about her ex were so iconic that his whole career would be defined by them

happy birthday to human goddess stevie nicks ✨

I just learned that my 1st grader needs to build a cardboard car and dress up like the 1950s for an event next week. Oh and this isn’t even part of the school ABC Countdown.

I’ve been way too busy with kids sports and remodeling projects to go out birding much this spring, so God bless that stunning scarlet tanager that flew into my yard today.

Is your kid named Jack?

Today’s backyard birding highlight is the rose-breasted grosbeak throuple - one female and two males all feeding together #birding #birdwatching #birds

Kind of a big oops for a regime that wants us to breed more. 🙄

Dislike 👎

“Take and eat; this is my body.” - The Ueckarist

WASHINGTON, D.C, (May 2, 2025) — Patricia Harrison, President and CEO of the Corporation for Public Broadcasting (CPB), issued the following statement today regarding the President’s Executive Order on public media: “CPB is not a federal executive agency subject to the President’s authority. Congress directly authorized and funded CPB to be a private nonprofit corporation wholly independent of the federal government. “In creating CPB, Congress expressly forbade ‘any department, agency, officer, or employee of the United States to exercise any direction, supervision, or control over educational television or radio broadcasting, or over [CPB] or any of its grantees or contractors…’ 47 U.S.C. § 398(c).”

Just a reminder that most of Trump's executive orders are nothing more than press releases.

After he ordered the Corporation for Public Broadcasting to pull funding for NPR and PBS, the CPB responded that it is authorized and funded by Congress and is not subject to the president's authority.

Hahaha this was me today

NYT: One estimate finds that DOGE’s “firings, re-hirings, lost productivity and paid leave of thousands of workers” will actually COST taxpayers “upward of $135 billion this fiscal year.”

RFK Jr. says there aren't autistic poets. We asked an autistic poet. "I will challenge RFK Jr. to write a poem as good as me any day of the week."

RFK Jr. says there are no autistic poets, so we interviewed one.

Hear from Elizabeth McClellan, @popelizbet.bsky.social, an award-winning poet, attorney, and legal educator based in Memphis, Tennessee.

I have a greater chance of finding a flamingo in my backyard today 😂

The website was super glitchy. I had to place multiple orders.

Just watched a red-winged blackbird chase off a large crow. Even if you feel small, you can still defend your territory (or democracy).

Hoping to top this with even greater failure this year

Honestly I like staying on Coronado Island, so it’s definitely worth trying for those!

I always overthink this too but when you don’t even get in for 20 minutes, there’s zero chance.

Lucky you - 21 minutes for me, no hope once again.

It’s 23 degrees in mid April, our country is imploding, and everything is getting even more expensive, but Houston lost in the most embarrassing way so I’ll take the small win today.

Karma’s a bitch
