“Are you not infotained?”

There should be mental health intervention for anyone who purchases a roadside letterboard for personal use. Saw one stating proudly that they had canceled their local newspaper subscription, followed by “go woke go broke”

i wanna find a way to get set up for PDA based data collection for fun on my spoke tension meter. Preferably around this era

for pride month, i’m gonna start measuring yall

the thing about taking a large car loan is that it is almost universally a bad idea. I traded a WRX that i suspected was going to give me problems, got fully $2k over blue book, thru a weird twist also got $1200 extra from a body shop that was paid to fix some damage that hadn’t gotten done yet, bought when used cars were expensive and new was cheap but right before rates went up, and i still think it was probably a poor choice to buy a (very reasonably priced) new car.

are there any journalists who are attending today’s state department briefing on this truck stop website? I’d like State to clarify a little on this section of the Report on Human Rights Practices. Did they do an investigation on the death of Issam Abdallah of @Reuters?

It’s pretty cool that a white nationalist near me caught the hyper specific charge of violating the Church Arson Prevention Act of 1996 when he tossed a couple molotovs at the church that was hosting a drag event.

From 1995 through 1998 in America there were 670 arson or bombing attempts on churches, mostly Black churches. That number strikes me as shockingly high, but i guess it was also shockingly high enough for congress

“Neo Nazis keep showing up to my anti-drag protests, i don’t know what that’s all about”

grats on the transition

The havana syndrome guys and the fent overdose cops should have a national holiday. I should get the day off for the brave folks making up fake medical conditions

@tchambers you talk about moderating with extreme care, but will there be any sort of workable moderation flow expected at start? Is there a responsive moderation team on the other side?

@tchambers @mawhrin even given that, there is a large difference between posting public on a mastodon instance and posting to the ATproto firehose. It's an intensely searchable protocol and the level of expected privacy is radically different

me: It's not pirate radio, it's low-key public radio

fcc: i don't know what that even means

this post is unlisted, or as i call it, eepy public

some discover the shortcomings of libertarianism when they’re 14, others take a little longer

@Polychrome @babe it could be worse, I didn’t post “Hetty the Hoover's PREGNANCY ANNOUNCEMENT that was TOO BIG to Swallow!” which has 2.5 million views and is a YouTube kids video

@Yora @pettter other than Wirecard I suppose

Italian is a beautiful language
