I am mostly here now:

[RumDood 🍹 @rumdood]

@besttrousers I see what you did there.

[RumDood 🍹 @rumdood]

Do we actually know each other and you would like to vacate Txitter for BlueSky? I have invites!

[RumDood 🍹 @rumdood]

Clicked over to watch a 2-day-old @4stringboy_ stream from the other day and switched tabs away to clear something and then switched back and it happened to coincide with Sammy literally saying "HI MATT" and my brain collapsed in on itself for a moment.

[RumDood 🍹 @rumdood]

Just an FYI that I am pretty much never active here anymore. I'm on bluesky as @rumdood as well if you're there. Also on IG but not threads. I'm pretty much @rumdood everywhere, so hopefully I'll see you folks in those other places. This place sucks.

[RumDood 🍹 @rumdood]

An unexpected problem with getting more into ukulele has been dealing with @UKRumfest going on and my brain keeps freezing every time I see "ukrumfest" as it tries to figure out which FOMO to activate

[RumDood 🍹 @rumdood]

Flipped over to YouTube and immediately saw that @4stringboy_ has his signature @flightukulele out and it LOOKS GORGEOUS.

Congrats, sir!

@RobertMSterling People by and large aren't saying that shoplifting isn't a big deal, they're saying that the insistence that it has gotten completely out of hand in the last 3 years is crap.

[RumDood 🍹 @rumdood]

@RobertMSterling This ignores what the companies are saying is the actual reason they're closing stores: the INCREASE in shoplifting. Shrinkage is not $1B more than it was 3 years ago. Shrinkage is up from 1.4% to 1.5% or 1.6% in most cases.

[Jerusalem @JerusalemDemsas]

This is... a wild stat.

37 percent of all US children are subjects of CPS reports (28% of white children and 53% of Black children experience CPS involvement before their 18th birthday).

@RottenInDenmark You're going to get sued by @jdcmedlock for trademark infringement!

[RumDood 🍹 @rumdood]

Sometimes you just need a 3:1 cognac and Jamaican rum Sazerac

[Joey Politano 🏳️‍🌈 @JosephPolitano]

A reminder that "you can just force the central government closed and hold all its public services and workers' paychecks hostage in budget negotiations" is not how a functional country operates and is another way in which the US political system is uniquely terrible.

[RumDood 🍹 @rumdood]

I'm just the son of an old farm boy, but isn't Paul literally saying he will hold the government hostage over Ukraine funding?

[RumDood 🍹 @rumdood]

@jdcmedlock Stop leaking that you're thinking about it and just do it. FFS

[RumDood 🍹 @rumdood]

Looking forward to the GOP platform of nationalizing the auto industry and firing all the blue collar workers.

[Scott Bland @scottmbland]

An Iowa voter asked Tim Scott how he’d handle UAW strike as president.

He praised the past firing of striking federal workers, saying Reagan set a good example: “You strike, you’re fired.”

V different than other R candidate rhetoric atm, per @NnamEgwuon https://t.co/sRGy0yZisc

That only took like 5 tries to post. Thanks, Twitter for the vast improvements to UX

[RumDood 🍹 @rumdood]

Amazing artwork. Incredible writing by @AshleyEsqueda. Fantastic food recipes by @jed_b. Also a few mocktail recipes from yours truly (but nothing is ever perfect).

Pick up a copy as soon as you can.

[RumDood 🍹 @rumdood]

@DFS4114 Yeah. You rejected solidarity and then cry foul for being "othered." YOU LITERALLY CHOSE OTHER OVER THE GROUP.

[RumDood 🍹 @rumdood]

I spent some time thinking about it and scabs are scabs and if they don't want to be called scabs then they are free to refuse to scab

[Chris Freiman @cafreiman]

Calling strikebreakers “scabs” is patently dehumanizing (and if your response to this is “good,” you should probably engage in some self-examination)

[RumDood 🍹 @rumdood]

Imagine being hurt that people you are literally working to undermine the well-being of are mad about that.
