West Austin delenda est.https://bsky.app/profile/mixingchris.bsky.socialhttps://bsky.app/profile/mixingchris.bsky.social/post/3mlr6clllr22kOver on Twitter, I'm working my way backwards in time musically from the 90s to... I dunno, the 30s? I'm currently lost in the vast sea of the 60s (as I type, Bobby Bland is singing yearningly). So if you have any 60s recommendations, I'll gladly take 'em.13 May 2026 20:45 +0000at://did:plc:ngbjbly2c5wqwpidzph3evyd/app.bsky.feed.post/3mlr6clllr22khttps://bsky.app/profile/mixingchris.bsky.social/post/3mk75iopml226Just popping in to say that, over on Twitter, there are frequent "Over on BlueSky" posts with screenshots, and I've never seen one that disappointed.23 Apr 2026 23:18 +0000at://did:plc:ngbjbly2c5wqwpidzph3evyd/app.bsky.feed.post/3mk75iopml226https://bsky.app/profile/mixingchris.bsky.social/post/3mg7jkws7dc2yPeople over here understand that the chances of a Democrat winning a Senate seat in Texas are really, really slim, right?04 Mar 2026 05:13 +0000at://did:plc:ngbjbly2c5wqwpidzph3evyd/app.bsky.feed.post/3mg7jkws7dc2yhttps://bsky.app/profile/mixingchris.bsky.social/post/3mfwyxgta3s2sA whole bunch of people who should know better are about to be like, "Well then, I am kinda glad we did it."28 Feb 2026 19:55 +0000at://did:plc:ngbjbly2c5wqwpidzph3evyd/app.bsky.feed.post/3mfwyxgta3s2shttps://bsky.app/profile/mixingchris.bsky.social/post/3mfwlqk72z22sThis is the legacy of liberal support for Iraq. The invasion of Iraq, justified as "preemptive" purely on pretense, made this possible. That set the precedent, as it was obvious it would to anyone paying attention.28 Feb 2026 15:58 +0000at://did:plc:ngbjbly2c5wqwpidzph3evyd/app.bsky.feed.post/3mfwlqk72z22shttps://bsky.app/profile/mixingchris.bsky.social/post/3mfoxhmlww22nMy phone reminds me that 8 years ago I butted in on this conversation.25 Feb 2026 15:07 +0000at://did:plc:ngbjbly2c5wqwpidzph3evyd/app.bsky.feed.post/3mfoxhmlww22nhttps://bsky.app/profile/mixingchris.bsky.social/post/3mfk76t3rgs2oSince Wuthering Heights didn't even get to much of the book, will there be a sequel? 2Wuthering, 2Heights?23 Feb 2026 17:41 +0000at://did:plc:ngbjbly2c5wqwpidzph3evyd/app.bsky.feed.post/3mfk76t3rgs2ohttps://bsky.app/profile/mixingchris.bsky.social/post/3mfk5oplyz22oLook, I'm not one to be a Texas chauvinist, but if you buy Texas peaches in season at HEB, the average one you get is going to be a transcendent experience. I assume this is true of Piggly Wiggly or wherever in Georgia with their peaches in season, too.

I told her the walk was about 7/10 of a mile, and she replied that she didn't know what a tenth is. So I said, "Imagine a giant who can walk a mile in 10 steps..."
