@marcoarment.bsky.social Hi Marco, I got a new iPhone and cannot seem to reinstall the Ocercast app onto my watch after pairing it with the new phone. Everything is updated, and the app works just fine on the new phone. But it won't install on the watch again. Any ideas?

Hello. I live in Los Angeles. The president is lying.

Trump Means to Provoke, Not Pacify Don’t give him the pretext he wants.

@radiofreetom.bsky.social, as per usual, laying it out clearly. Also, Season 2 of Andor. www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archiv...

Astronomers Detect a Signature of Life on a Distant Planet Further studies are needed to determine whether K2-18b, which orbits a star 120 light-years away, is inhabited, or even habitable.

What are their 30 yr fixed interest rates like?

Very excellent use of pre-header copy @nymag.com 👏

Its not that voters thought tariffs were good exactly - most Americans (according to polls) do not know what a tariff is.

It was just a word being thrown around in the 'who will make economy good' debate. Given the relentlessly negative media coverage of dems, they went with Trump.

I really can’t wrap my head around congressional Democrats’ response to the past 12 days of crises. It reeks of pathetic capitulation. Trump is asserting dictatorial powers of absolute control over the entire government and the reaction is “we don’t swing at every pitch”? An appalling abdication.

I think it’s important to underline here that doing this to the federal government is illegal and a breach of the constitutional order

The folks over at @jacobinmag.bsky.social are done with 2024.

😔

Not to take anything away from this, but the real (not serious but practical) test is when an earthquake hits in CA.

Can I find an instant flood of "quake!" posts from various corners of Los Angeles as we wait for USGS to tell us how intense it really was?

My Life As a Homeless Man in America An extraordinary firsthand account.

This story knocked the wind out of me and i hope esquire paid this man.

Well, this is the closest I've heard to what "again" means for folks who wanna "Make America great again."

It's apparently just... government handouts?

That time of year where I'm reminded that boomer parents are fine with single-use water bottles, paper napkins, and coffee pods, but they insist on using the same dish sponge they've had since Desert Storm.

I mean, I couldn't agree more, but what is the way to reach the ~160M Americans of voting age to deliver this message in a way that doesn't come off as "Elections have consequences, dummy!"?

Because with attention spans and the media landscape such that it is, that's all people tend to hear.

You know we're down bad as a country when Marco Rubio is considered a measured cabinet pick

We are living in the too-over-the-top first draft of the script of the 2012 movie Promised Land. 🤦‍♂️

Does Ezra Klein count?

I also regularly listen to a show about "guy stuff" (travel, adventure, diving, driving, gear, and watches) called The Grey NATO.

Two male hosts who are extremely *not* Rogan.

Help me @mjsdc.bsky.social. You’re my only hope!

How are these amicus briefs used by SCOTUS? I am confused by Justice KBJ’s interpretation of the term “officer.” The historical record seems clear that that was an edit made to make the language less redundant, but that it affirmatively includes the President.

And… There's always time to rename the show. Burnt Toast is still available!

@caseynewton.bsky.social awesome hearing you and Kevin on Longform today. The detail about the origins of Hard Fork made me think that you guys should try to line up an interview with Michael Lewis to discuss his new book – about SBF and crypto more broadly.

Please clap.

Amen dude.

if you really admire someone’s work, let ‘em know. Not even because it will make them happy, but because it’ll make *you* happy. When someone brings you joy, it’s such a relief to share it.

French Lipton Peach tea (not the stuff we get here in the U.S. — I am guessing hfcs is the differentiator) is unreal. Would suggest importing if you want your next fix.

Copy this. Thank you.

Btw, is it accurate that if you shut down your Threads acct it deletes your Instagram acct as well?

Hell of a way to "encourage" users to stick around if so.

You better not leave here, bro

Why do I feel like your story is in conversation with this one? https://bsky.app/profile/jbouie.bsky.social/post/3jxycetilwb2e
