We have completely jumped the shark as a nation. The world looks at us in absolute bewilderment as we slaughter each other with guns, and throw our hands up in resignation. It's pathetic. nytimes.com/2023/05/06/us/al…

Post is an oasis so far. Please, all the good people come over. Awful people, stay here. #post
My son was disappointed to realize that the US team was playing a country called Wales and not a large group of whales in what I guess he imagined to be a large soccer-seaworld extravaganza.

Qatar never should have been awarded the World Cup. Of course, FIFA is corrupt and incompetent, so no surprise.
Just now: Security guard refusing to let me into the stadium for USA-Wales. “You have to change your shirt. It’s not allowed.”
Twitter isn’t working like it used to. I click on a tweet to see the replies and it spins and spins, sometimes eventually loading. No surprise with so many employees gone that the gears are starting to grind.
I've seen a lot of people asking "why does everyone think Twitter is doomed?" As an SRE and sysadmin with 10+ years of industry experience, I wanted to write up a few scenarios that are real threats to the integrity of the bird site over the coming weeks.

My 11 YO pup completed his radiation treatments today for his brain tumor. He did great and is feeling better so far. Cancer sucks. Medical technology is amazing. Thankful for the wonderful, kind vet care he’s gotten.
if you have a twitter crush on someone you legally have to tell them tonight
