Here I was, searching for a good, clear explainer on trade policy and tariffs for one of my college classes, and look who showed up. It's @jm-mcgrath.bsky.social. youtu.be/IzCThKVMlkg
I am a humble public servant!

We just need to remember the reason for the season!

It's not too late to make Ides of March plans!
Naturally, Rosie woke me up at 5:30 because she wants to make sure I'm observing Daylight Savings or losing or whatever goddammit dog it is 4:30 in my body

Any bit that makes Adam scream "STOP!" is worth it. You owe him for all the Twaining!
hey quick Q for anyone, does food take a lot of oil to grow, package, and distribute
Slipped and fell on the ice while walking the dog. Can't remember how it happened, only that I felt the ice under my boot and then I was on my back in pain. Good Samaritan got out of their car to check on me. Doing OK, but boy am I ever hurting

Whomst amongst us hasn't accidentally gassed yourself while adding a packet of Shin Ramen spicy broth powder into a boiling pot of water, sending spicy particulate into the air?

Max Scherzer coming back to the Jays feels like S2ep1 of a show about an anger management candidate with the cutest kids who's trying to give them the best life
This kind of practicality can feel grey and joyless in advance but is it So! Helpful! to Future You. Having one less chore in a truly difficult time feels like a gift.
Some of my bleakest, realist thoughts lately are, "I'd better make sure I have a few all-black outfits, I've got some funerals coming up" and "I better start decluttering now because I don't want the Biped to have to deal with all my crap when I'm gone."

Oh nothing, just me, John and the Biped crying silent tears over the latest ep of #StarfleetAcademy
It’s a dark blue coffee mug in the style of a Maxwell House mug, but instead it’s an Uxbridge House Mug. On the back is the logo for GreatestGen10.

Free idea: app that detects active camera glasses and triggers them to explode
True story: when I was working at big chain bookstore, a customer with camera glasses was secretly filming women's butts by crouching down behind them. Dude was eventually arrested.
Corrolary to the counterpoint:
If a government and/or justice system is unwilling to hold the powerful to account for their crimes, mob justice is the only justice even possible.
I miss the days when the worst news out was people turning into zombies because they were snorting bath salts.
