‘Nothing Will Remain of Tehran,’ Iranians Say Amid Heavy Bombing Shared from Stonking

You can demolish all the buildings you want, but no matter how many you destroy, it's not going to stop Iran, is it now? All the United States will achieve is guaranteeing that the world hates all Americans for the next 100+ years, and more terrorism.

My own site had an automatic update to 6.9.2 but everything still works. Got lucky I guess with the template framework on my site.

WordPress 6.9.2 launched today with 10 security fixes, then got pulled within a few hours. No explanation yet. Download page is back to 6.9.1. Hold off updating until this is sorted.

Thoughtful, well-written and worth reading. I also believe every word of it, and I believe that Bluesky's still in safe hands.

I personally feel like Bluesky is stronger than ever this year, the commitment to improving developer relations, and growing the ecosystem is exactly what's needed.

Next CEO is gonna have their hands full, trying to live up to the standards that Jay set.

And no matter how hard they try, they'll never top this boss's look, so I feel slightly bad for them, lol

Putin says Russia can supply oil, gas to Europe as energy prices soar Russian president spoke as oil prices surged past $100 per barrel, reaching levels unseen since start of Ukraine war.

Wasn't happy with lightweight long-form post, so spent "forever" building full blog capability for @stonking.com

It's served from user subdomain / doubles up as Bluesky domain handle (optional)

I'll never forget this moment in Bluesky's history, I remember thinking how perfectly it summed up the long-term mission, and that we were in good hands.

Being a CEO can be limiting, I hope this move turns out to be a step-up for Jay's happiness, and enables her to do what she truly loves to do.

GOP Congressman Says ‘Muslims Don’t Belong In American Society’ Rep. Andy Ogles of Tennessee also called it “a lie” that diverse groups of people can respectfully engage with each other.

"Ogles isn’t the only Republican in Congress comfortable with being openly Islamophobic.

Last month, Rep. Randy Fine (Fla.) declared on social media: “If they force us to choose, the choice between dogs and Muslims is not a difficult one.”"
