Despise the character in LETTERKENNY, but SHORESY really is something special.
Gonna give this one to you Bobb. It actually made me laugh.
White folks we canβt stop you from saying unc, maybe itβs too late in its breaking containment. Whatever the HELL it means to you (given you have no collective sense of familial community). Just know what a big bozo you look like to every single Black American using it. The biggest bozo.

I regret to inform you that I will be sat.
Sending pixie dust your way, bb
We just said the same thing twice, Joe.
This has nothing to do with defending bsky. It has a myriad of issues. It's only that data without context is meaningless.
Comparing threads' user count to bsky's is pointless. Threads users clicked a button once on a platform they were already on. It's as valuable as saying "bsky has fewer users than instagram."
One has 15 yrs of (rotted) infrastructure. The other is (relatively) new.
Ads and racist algorithms are coming.
Talented writers across verticals can't get pitches accepted but this, THIS, is what makes it through the pipeline.

This is so shitty and disrespectful. Marisa fought for MONTHS to get access to this information and NBC sliding in to try to scoop her is unprofessional and shameful. Seeing mainstream outlets consistently use her reporting, including her FOIA work, with no credit is galling.
ok who else is trying to write through the horrors today for contractually bound reasons
That ghoulish Ben Shapiro clip β¨is not newsβ¨, which means we're just sharing it to β¨platform himβ¨ and I am certain that is no one's intent so please β¨stopβ¨
Oh thatβs my friend Montressorβs wine cellar

I am happy for all of you sun-craved lunatics but I am VENGEANCE and I do not require such frivolities!!!
It's 9PM and I am not hungry. Daylight savings time remains absurd, disruptive, and of zero value.
Keep in mind that itβs not just the cost of filling *your* tank which is skyrocketingβ¦the cost to every *truck driver* is also spiking, which means the cost of whatever theyβre transporting will go up as wellβ¦
NO NO NO YOU DONβT
