DO YOU KNOW HOW HARD IT IS TO SUMMARIZE LOVE CANAL AND THE GREAT DEPRESSION IN TWO SENTENCES.03 Oct 2026 17:23 +0000at://did:plc:hjeijo7fb6x2zqcgldsz223x/app.bsky.feed.post/3mwyfni2gzk2ohttps://bsky.app/profile/samlmontano.bsky.social/post/3mwr7vdvuvk2tThis feels like a scene from a 1980s comedy where a total loser gives himself a pep talk in his bedroom before going to high school where he gets shoved in a locker and everyone just laughs because he’s so sniveling.

Seems like something that should get some attention.30 Sep 2026 15:48 +0000at://did:plc:hjeijo7fb6x2zqcgldsz223x/app.bsky.feed.post/3mwqox3mzhc2ehttps://bsky.app/profile/samlmontano.bsky.social/post/3mwodf3dq622cI simply will not be acknowledging Hamilton’s pronouncement of a new, very bad, definition of emergency management.
