@timbray They don't even look glamorous to me. I call 'em ceiling acne.

Happy 3rd Fediversary to me and a whole bunch of other people who let that sink in.

@danwentzel I'm sure they'll all be fine without our taxes.

@futurebird When my son was in 3rd grade, I asked him what was the scariest costume he could wear. Then of course I had to construct it.

@nicholasgrossman.bsky.social I don't even think they are correct. I have been listening to so many voices I would have discounted in the past, now firmly in the sane camp. I'm sure our paths will diverge again if we ever regain our footing, but for now I am encouraged.

Bless the frogs. Portland is such a great city.

@evoterra HELP

@futurebird Early in the relationship I said I didn't think we'd make it because we argued all the time. He said oh, does this feel like arguing to you? and stopped. We've been contentedly married for 30 years.

Took my clippers to the saw palm. Akin to a knife to a gun fight. We both survived.

@BruceMirken Youngest I knew was three. She was a determined little person and hasn't wavered in 17 years.

@evanurquhart.bsky.social I've been thinking along the same lines, especially since the first mention I saw was from the Daily Mail. In a beach community, it wouldn't surprise me if that was a Propane tank blowing up. Has me unsettled, though.

@tayfonay I miss the days they were trying to sell me a new fighter jet. I was saving up for that.

@volts.wtf It might affect application numbers, but when admission rates are 5 or 10%, enrollment has a lot of wiggle room.

@aram Clarity is drowning. The war on punctuation has become a meme. I will defend my Oxford comma to my last breath.

This is incredibly beautiful storytelling.

@jstevenyork Did they name it Starbase because they were trying to turn the base into the surface of the Sun?

@jacobtlevy.bsky.social Succinct and accurate response.

Our military deserves better than this empty charade. Yikes. The tank squeaking over silence is incredible.
