remarkable to me that far from seeming cool or masculine zuck seems like an even bigger loser — the kind of nerd who preemptively gives his lunch money to the bully and thanks him for the opportunity
A *normal* amount of birds
Why go see Anora when I can see anora showing of the 2024 hit papal thriller Conclave featuring Oscar-nominated Ralph Fiennes.

I’ve gone down a rabbit hole with Philosophy Tube research: I started with “Why are American cities on grids?” and now I’m deep into historical theories on whether Thomas Jefferson was autistic
Trying to maintain a 2014 former bird app energy going on my Bluesky: funny posts, jokes and observations, with little reposting or promotion. How am I doing?

Before k8s I applied for and got a Facebook offer. It was a difficult choice to turn it down but ultimately the company, even back then, gave me the ick. Actually had Zuch do a sell call. I was unconvinced. So glad I didn’t take the offer.
Committed to having weekends off for the first time as an adult, was so excited (what will I do with this time?) So far it’s “sit in my pajamas next to the picture windows and watch my feeders” At least 130 birds of 15 species today, including two new yard birds (flicker, White-crowned Sparrow)
Snowy urban yard with a ravine behind it, filled with big old deciduous trees. At the edge of the lawn is a pole with six bird feeders on it and three behind in the neighboring shrubs. On the other side of the lawn there’s a snowy bird bath, used as a platform feeder. Between the bird bath and the pole stretches a carpet of small songbirds, mostly House Sparrows but with some other species mixed in

A fun Cardboard Tube Samurai sketch I liked.
Roger Pratt's work with Terry Gilliam is some of my favorite of all time. He shot BRAZIL, 12 MONKEYS, and THE FISHER KING. Not a week goes by without some collection of those images playing in my brain. They wrangled lightning together, and Pratt will be greatly, greatly missed.
In addition to the Nuclear Block™️ we should have a Break it Up function where when two people get into a fight in our mentions we can prevent them from seeing each other’s posts 😡 🫷😑🫸 🤬
