I've bought 22 pairs of Vivobarefoot shoes in the last 10 years. Today, they are a dreadful company and I recommend you avoid them. My last order they sent me the wrong thing and now they want me to pay $70 return tracked shipping to get my money back. Their customer services is now AI. Avoid.

I took that test after having a stroke. It is an extremely difficult test... if you've been mentally incapacitated in some way. If you haven't, it is ludicrously easy. Literally, an average 5 year old could pass it.

Disappointed you went with this nazi-friendly outlet when you could have used Ghost or Buttondown.

The number of people who mispronounce Marty's last name in MR. SCORSESE is mind-boggling. It's not Scor - say - zee, people. It's Scor - sezy. He says it himself in the first episode.

Well it's inaccurate in at least one way: it misspells Mamdani's name! You can be excused for doing the same on Bluesky, but a major news outlet doing it is laughable.

Reminds me of that time Toronto Mayor Rob Ford campaigned against graffiti and did a photoshoot under a wall painted, "Stay off our turf!" like it was 1955.

Sting once joked about removing Summers' or Coland's name (I forget which of the two it was) from the songwriting credit of Every Breath You Take just before submitting it for publishing rights and laughed about the "literally millions of dollars" he robbed from his bandmate.

I don't doubt he asked her, "Can I trust you?" and she said "No" because she plans to follow the science and he's thinking that's the same as asking if she's trustworthy.

Wow. Bottom of the barrel. Hard to think of someone more insincere or disingenuous.

Liked his acting but loved his memoirs. The Ocean Falls Into the Drop is fantastic.

Hmm. You've got a Canadian flag in your profile but this isn't working for me in Canada. Geoblocked.

Substack sent a push alert promoting a Nazi blog | Taylor Lorenz Get more from Taylor Lorenz on Patreon

What is it going to take for @mehdirhasan.bsky.social and @zeteo.com to admit they made a mistake getting into bed with Substack despite ample proof it was a bad idea? Do the right thing and switch to @ghost.org or @buttondown.com!

French President Macron says France will recognize Palestine as a state French President Emmanuel Macron has announced that France will recognize Palestine as a state, amid snowballing global anger over people starving in Gaza.

@mark-carney.bsky.social β€” You could do this now, or August first, and beat France to the punch!

What an insanely deceptive headline from the @nytimes.com. Embarrassing.

"You would think that a great tomato knife would make a great potato knife..." Are you mad?!

ONE IS DRY; ONE IS WET! ONE IS A FRUIT; ONE IS A VEGETABLE! ONE GROWS IN THE GROUND; ONE GROWS ABOVE THE GROUND!

Different things require different knives, Scott.

I used to visit for months at a time. Lived there for 3.5 years total over 10 yrs. Stayed in friends' places so no hotel spending, but I spent a lot of $ on non-lodging. During Trump 1, I started taking my vacations elsewhere (Vanuatu, Spain, Dominican, Aus...). I doubt I'll ever return to the US.

@mark-carney.bsky.social this was an ad on Youtube. I hope you can find those responsible and sue their asses. Perhaps issue some official warning that this is AI and people should not be clicking it? Sorry I wasn't able to capture the whole thing. I have a higher res version if needed.
