@atrupar "But not electricians that belong to IBEW or plumbers in their unions. We don't want any more of *those* tradesmen."

@wpattison I had an evil host at one dinner. 5 courses, wine with each, at Restaurant d’Vijff Vlieghen (the Five Flies) in Amsterdam. On the third floor of a 17th century canal house, so 2 sets of tiny spiral stairs. One guy snuck out mid-meal for a smoke, faceplanted climbing back up.

@wpattison At least. How many years has full autonomous self driving been promised to us “real soon?”

@ThinkAppraiser @ChrisJBakke Promote it as made with non-fluoridated water and you’ll rope in a whole group of fanatical customers that will provide repeat sales as well as add a flock of influencers for no-cost marketing.

@nevmed Baseball batting stats are the pre-internet equivalent.

@boxhill I’m sure “unlimited revisions” worked out well for them.

@wpattison Pretty sure we could use AI for most CEO functions. Don’t CEOs still base their decisions on facts and data?

@Acyn That might actually be an honest answer if Fox hasn’t put their ticker back on screen. Is he watching any other news these days, or are they all still fake?

@atrupar How hard would it be to convince him the gold is safe because it’s guarded by a dragon?

@wpattison Looks like you’re getting your wish. WSJ today: DeJoy plans to step down as the Postmaster General

[glenf.bsky.social @GlenF]

@boxhill More government waste. DOGE should get rid of all but one of them.

45 minutes before it ended, I sold it. Woot.

When you’re at a massive bike swap trying to sell your bike, and you realize 3 hours into the 5 hour event your phone is still set to “Mute unknown calllers”

[glenf.bsky.social @GlenF]

@wpattison Just that “open and transparent government” they said we need so badly.

For the moment, I’m going with the idea that ICE can’t tell the difference between Mexicans and Navajos. I’m not at the point yet where I believe this nonsense is intentional. https://t.co/nM3zmWDypw

Last year, @CoryDoctorow gave us “enshittification.” He’s off to an early start this year with “Zuckermuskian media.”

@WUTangKids But hey, now they can sell them the limited edition DVD of the ceremony for only $49.95, and a bundle including a replica of the Trump bible used in the swearing in for an additional $59.95

[glenf.bsky.social @GlenF]

@boxhill Tempting, but I don’t want to feed the trolls. I did block him though.

I may have to delete my Bluesky account, it’s now being followed by Steve Bannon.

@bitterbeefalo @WUTangKids And to complete the trifecta, the Holocaust Museum.
