just did a health facility registration over the phone using an AI voice agent and now I feel like I have brain damage... I see your birthday...um...one second...is listed as 1...January...5th, yes, um oh yes, January 5, 1980. Is this correct?

I normally would just register online but it is for the kid and the system was acting weird about the parent/child account situation, so I answered the daily phone call they've been making...I really don't know what type of jibberish is going to be in the file now lol

NYPD henchman: Here’s the oppo research on Mamdani, boss. Makes him look real fucking cool, just like you asked

Chris Sommerfeldt@c-sommerfeldt.bsky.social

New: Mayor Zohran Mamdani and a group of his friends have been secretly using the NYPD Police Academy’s gymnasium in Queens to play pickup basketball — scrambling some operations at the facility. w/ @grahamrayman.bsky.social & Joe Anuta www.politico.com/news/2026/10...

My Nuggets Goal for the year: enjoy Jokic and Murray on offense, hope for the best on defense and with team health, and get ready for the play-in game and another first round exit.

I was about to start majorly panicking about the Nuggets getting blown out by the Pelicans, but now I’ll just minorly panic that it took an epic comeback to force OT with the as Pelicans

Remember: postmarks don’t matter in most states…the ballot has to actually be received by end of Election Day in roughly 35+ states

My latest @npr.org story: If you have to use the U.S. Postal Service to return a mail-in ballot, USPS recommends mailing it at least a week before your state's deadline. And if you're mailing close to Election Day, stop by a post office to ask for a postmark to make sure it gets one on the same day

it's funny how so many people, who don't even like the NBA, are always like: oh my god travelling! this is why I don't watch the NBA it's so ridiculous! True hoopers can hold the dual, conflicting thoughts in their head that it is both ridiculous and hilarious and yet another reason to watch

The NBA Opening Day Tournament sponsored by Polymarket begins today. The small handful of teams with at least 5 active players will compete for the ultimate prize: an in-person photo op with Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman!

Polymarket and Kalshi and all prediction markets are compromising the fabric of society in ways that are insanely harmful and destructive.

Did a quick writeup on Polymarket pulling its bet on "any of the Cornell 7 charged with a felony sex crime?" for @defector.com The bet is no longer live, but I did grab screenshots before they took it down:

getting extremely riled up about the Nuggets being ranked 15th (both because its completely wrong and because it could possibly be true lol)

Pretty sure I have seen dried bean curd sticks in America, but they just look a little bit different than the kz спаржа. I’ll go to the h-mart this week and report back!

Does anyone know what these are called in English? Clearly not asparagus lol. I’m not sure I’ve ever seen these in America, even in the H-Mart and other Asian stores. But maybe I just missed it…

I’ve only seen headlines and screenshots but am 100% certainty that the Flying Tesla Roadster is the dumbest thing I’ve ever seen (either fake or unbuyable stunt, or another way for Musk to kill his richest, most adoring fans)
