You ever find yourself looking for your pajamas at night and then realize you never got out of them?

In my 'building out an RSS feed' stage of insufferableness

I was driving down the highway and saw a huge billboard lit up in the distance. I spent a good 20 seconds squinting at it, trying to make out what it said, and when I got close enough I could make out the words: “Don’t drive distracted.”

I thought flannel was the only thing on a 20-year cycle, but it turns out so is our collective memory of imperialism.

This is one of the best things I have seen on the internet in some time. @brennanleemulligan.bsky.social

It's been about a year since I ditched all Meta platforms. Despite all the terrible things we witnessed in 2025, it has still been better to exist without the burden of an algorithmic storm cloud persistently bogging down my subconscious. We don't need these platforms, and we never did.

Putting solar panels on sealed landfills is like a weird apology

It took my brain several minutes to process that that wasn't just effects makeup

"I'm sent to the fields to help manage the soybean fires. We are given no personal protective equipment. I momentarily pantomime being the dog-drinking-coffee-in-a-fire-meme, popping a squat and shouting, 'THIS IS FINE!' None of the others assigned to soybean fire detail laugh.

I can't prove it, but I think we were one bong rip away from Teenage Mutant Ninja Squirrels.

A handwritten scorecard of 3 roast beef locations: Nick's in Beverly, Supreme's in Danvers, and Harrison's in North Andover (RIP). Nick's got an A from Andrew and an A+ from me for great beef and sauce and a toasted bun. Supreme's got an A- from Andrew and an A+ from me for great thin sliced roast beef and great fries. Harrison's got a B from Andrew and an A-- from me for an untoasted bun and the beef being dry in some places.

The year was 2006. My friend Andrew and I had the crazy idea to do a one-day North Shore Roast Beef tour-something presumably never attempted before. Nearly 20 years later, the torch has been passed to @joshgondelman.bsky.social and @wgbh.org, and they sure did it right. Check out their video below!

This is even more delightful than I'd heard.

It also reminds me of the relentless crypto marketing campaign in 2022 that required countless celebrities and multi-million dollar Superbowl ads to try to make "fetch" happen

Simply choosing to ignore this one. Can’t do it today.

YouTube video by One Quick Thing More Than Kombucha: How Auspicious Brew Became a Community Hub

Auspicious Brew just turned 5 this year and has played such a pivotal role in the Seacoast community, especially coming out of the pandemic. The interview they did with @onequickthingpod.bsky.social last week is such a joy to watch: youtu.be/tGoKUMKBYag?...

These are so great!

This one is for a specific part of the US, but I'm sure there are international photography ones out there!

I’m building out a list of local artists on Bluesky and made these cards with a QR code on the back to encourage people in the community to consider an alternative to the big social media platforms. Download the template below, so you can make some for your neck of the woods!
