My experience is people put the doodoo doggie bag in my bin after it has been emptied by the garbage truck—but before I’ve brought it into the garage.

Your poll is missing the obvious answer. If the trash has not yet been picked up, go right ahead.
If it has been picked up, then put it somewhere else; don’t inflict the smell of your dog’s poop on someone else.

If you want to know why a Democratic Senator and Representative in Minnesota were shot... It might have something to do with the fact that their deaths would end the Democratic majorities in both chambers.

Toymakers are in limbo with uncertain trade policy As many as 80% of the toys we buy in the U.S. are manufactured in China. The trade war will likely speed up the shift to those other countries.

James Zahn, @therockfather.bsky.social, is editor of the trade publication The Toy Book. He predicts we’ll start to see much higher prices and empty shelves in the toy aisle by Halloween. A word to the wise: Shop soon for the kiddos in your life.

It’s definitely good to know what’s chomping on you. 😜

If Tesla dealerships would just rake their lots there wouldn’t be so many fires.

Major life achievement! 👏🎈👏Warmest congratulations, Jo.

Important reading! “It is in America’s interest to reverse course immediately and rebuild the crucial infrastructure needed to detect and respond to outbreaks. Not only is this the right thing to do, but it also makes economic sense.”

Ever so grateful for all who stand up against injustice in ways great and small. ♥️🙏♥️

Wild guess it was one too many posts about libraries… I must have seen a few too many as well, for me to laugh so hard

I laughed so hard at this I got a little spit on my phone. 😳🤣

At this point, I am 100% certain that the magnitude of the fraud in federal entitlements (Social Security, Medicare, Medicaid, Welfare, Disability, etc) exceeds the combined sum of every private scam you've ever heard by FAR. It's not even close.

It's not even close.

We’re experiencing a digital coup… zero chance things will still function same as always in 4 years.

Wishing you the best in whatever is happening to you and those you love.

It’s the only positive thing I’m aware of that he did in his first term.

Analysis | Trump launched air controller diversity program that he now decries At a news conference, Trump read a list of conditions he called disqualifying, but his administration started such hiring in 2019.

Not that it had anything to do with the accident… but since he’s blaming DEI… you might want to know that Drumpf actually was the one who opened the door to hiring diverse air traffic controllers. Gift article.

I see people posting that Elon was at Auschwitz this time last year - therefore, his recent "gesture" is not antisemitic. I was there, too. Last year. With Elon. I am embarrassed that I have photos of this on my phone. My love, Gidon Lev, was the "special guest" of this photo-op event. We thought, at the time, that it would be good publicity. But I would not share the photo today. I chatted with Elon Musk. I spent hours with him and walked with him through Auschwitz. I stood with him, looking at the nauseating heaps of hair, luggage, and shoes flooded with violet light meant to preserve it. Is Musk an antisemite? People, actually, it's worse - he doesn't care whatsoever. Elon, father of "little X" as he described his freezing cold son to me, literally does not care. He was unmoved by the experience. For Gidon, to be in the place where his father, Ernst, died on a death march - whether shot by the side of the road or having simply collapsed - was a huge deal. Elon did not care. He was about his press junket and his bodyguards. I was ten feet from him as he posed for the cameras of his entourage. He was utterly detached. He cared about how he looked. When he placed a wreath at Auschwitz and Gidon was overlooked, he walked away with the cameras whirring. This is Elon Musk. A sociopath, if ever there was one. To deduce, from this visit, that he is a friend of the Jews is desperately naive.

Julie Gray, wife of Holocaust survivor Gidon Lev, who joined Musk in his visit to Auschwitz last year, spoke out on Facebook.

Yes. Thank you for all you do to make this country a better place for everyone! 💙

I recall reading about a newscaster who had the sweat glands removed from his forehead. Maybe Pete should have too! Since he was going under the knife anyway…

This is the most delightful and hilarious story that I’ve read on Blue Sky (so far)! Thank you for sharing this memory with us! ♥️

Thanks for the heads up, Juli.
When I see a dude who is following WAY more people than he has followers, I assume he intends to show up in my DMs and I don’t follow back.

LA fires are a good reminder that the only difference between me and any refugee is luck. @ethanjacobs.bsky.social

We generally don’t give luck—good luck or bad luck—enough credit.
Let’s help them get back on their feet. #LAfires

Headline: Facebook Founder and Convicted Pedophile Mark Zuckerberg, Dead at 36, Says Social Media Sites Should Not Fact-Check Posts Photo of Zuckerberg Copy: Zuckerberg, who died of coronavirus and complications from syphilis at his home near Facebook headquarters in Lincoln, Nebraska, says it is not Facebook's role to be the arbiter of truth.

The announcement that there will no longer be fact-checking on Facebook isn’t going well for Zuck. #FactsMatter

Thank you! ♥️🎈
