I hope you’re right, but I’m not so sure. After Access Hollywood, Charlottesville, and J6, my expectation is that the average GOP voter will absolutely love killing puppies.

I've got my BlueSky account connected to Spoutible, but the connection seems to break -- particularly when I post something from the Spoutible app. It doesn't seem to happen with the web site, and it seems to happen more if there's an image attached.

Same. The micropayment idea seemed cool, and I got an OK vibe from most of what I saw there, but Post just never fully clicked for me.

I guess that happened with lots of folks, and the numbers are just not going to work for them to keep the place afloat.

Haruki Murakami is my fav fiction writer. I'd put Ray Bradbury and Arthur C Clarke on my list too. Jules Verne wrote some bangers.

Non-fiction -- Donald Knuth. He wrote some fiction as well, but it's awful.

She was my top pick for '20, and I was happy that Biden brought her on. I've got a "for the people" t-shirt that I wear to freak folks out from time to time.

I'd be on board with Harris/Buttigieg after Joe finishes his second term.

He didn't win. It was fraud. Any time anyone wins an election, it's fraud.

Saw this live, around 41 years ago. A heck of a show, and damn, I really feel old, but life's been good to me so far.

It’s all ok. Everyone’s number comes up some time, and he lived before he died, which is more than a lot of folks do.

This one hits me in a weird but good way. My brother died last year from cancer, and on his way out, he was losing weight. This song was something of a running joke, providing a laugh during a rather grim time.
He was a good dude, and at peace with his fate. And he wasn't heavy. He was my brother.

I'll have you know that I was into Gregorian chant for THREE MONTHS! 😊

(That was a pretty good summer, actually.... And 1991 for sure, because I was living in Santa Fe, before moving out to Los Angeles.)

I guess I’m a little surprised supporting different servers isn’t an easy thing to do. Is there some sort of authentication grief that has to happen for each?

Nope. He lies about being broke, and laughs while he does it.

The acceptance of bald-faced lying is IMO the key change on the right. McCain, Romney, Bush didn’t lie like this.

They seem to get away with it by pretending to believe things they know are lies, and everyone shrugs their shoulders.

Wow - a young bunch, but they pull this off nicely. The lead singer can handle the RJD vocals, and the guitarist can really shred. Too much lighting in the video, though -- the black leather looks a little odd in broad daylight.

Yup. I’ve got an invite if you want. The fracturing of the microblog world is weird. Completely different groups of people in the various platforms. Nicest ones are here, more famous folk are elsewhere.

Rock on. Be yourself.

The "passing" term caught my eye, as many folks with black ancestors, and who have light skin for obvious reasons, can "pass" for white. This leads to a lot of identity questions that might be parallel to yours.

So rock on. Be yourself. You get one life. Live & enjoy it.

Classic. I saw him in '83 at the US Festival, and it seems like an alternate universe. Where does the time go?
