@boostblue.bsky.social checking our Deck UI and digging it. Love notifications in a sidebar instead of the default. But looks like there’s so much padding after the name of the element that on my iPad, the column width slider for Notifications is squeezed to the point it’s basically a toggle switch.
This unsportsmanlike shit is 85 percent of why I’m rooting against the Rays. (The other 15 is how happy a Brewers win would make @andrewpfister.bsky.social) https://www.facebook.com/reel/1471650628174813
Periodically I’m reminded of how much I regret introducing Marilyn Manson and David Duchovny, I don’t think that put any more goodness into the world (It was an interview for Midway’s Area 51, it’s not like I knew them before, we just got them together for the first time and they were instant bffs)
Billy Corgan defends his friendship with Marilyn Manson, compares himself to Kanye West, and explains his resentment toward the "hipster writer class"

We made a book! RURAL INDEXING: A COLLECTION OF AMERICAN BUILDINGS, SIGNS, AND SYMBOLS arrives from Rizzoli in March 2027. Our favorite themes and subjects from the thousands of places we've visited since 2010—450+ photos, many never published before. Preorder: linktr.ee/ruralindexingproject

Not for nothing but PBS does election night coverage and we work really really really hard on it. Union shop as well!
Scoop from @brettlogiurato.bsky.social: CBS has sold its local election night coverage to DraftKings, stirring more controversy inside the David Ellison-owned company. Details in @status.news: www.status.news/p/cbs-draftk...
This scratches an itch in my brain

Starting to suspect @andrewpfister.bsky.social’s Brewers are going to see a Rays club that’s not as worn out as I’d hoped

These motherfuckers actually bought AIR TIME for this shit (www.axios.com/local/clevel...)
Fortunately for Vivek Ohio doesn’t have a lot of folks on Medicare, being a state famous for attracting and keeping young people. And it’s not like folks on Medicare vote anyway.
Q: Were Medicare and Medicaid mistakes? Vivek Ramaswamy: I believe they were. I think the evidence would show that it has harmed the very people that it was created to actually help

Inevitable given Pringles’ most famous parent. The Urn of the New Sun? Or perhaps The Urn of the Long Can?
Related: I’ve had reason to watch mobile game ads recently and I would LOVE to see numbers on the “dumbest fucking person in the world plays our game” genre. I *think* I get it? Like, you want to fix what that horrible horrible person did. But I’d love some science about it.
No joke. I think this is the most important video I have ever seen about mobile games. This guy breaks down how this game psychologically profiles you, and makes the game harder or easier in order to show you ads
My oldest living brother smoked for something like 45 years. He finally quit about 5 years ago. The damage was already done. He is now experiencing a strong decline into vascular dementia. There seem to be some treatments that might help a little, but not nearly enough. Seriously don’t smoke.
"AI researchers are taking up smoking because they expect AI to cure cancer, says Palantir CTO"
Oh, if you’ve never heard of vascular dementia, here’s a link. It can be caused by persistently high blood pressure. And smoking spikes your blood pressure like you would not believe. (I *think* it’s nicotine specifically, so may apply to pouches etc. but don’t quote me on that)

President Trump posted a fabricated quote from Denzel Washington on his Truth Social page, the actor’s team confirmed. In the quote, Washington purportedly says he has “never met anyone braver, smarter, or who cares more about America” than Trump.
