It is clear to anyone with a brain that someone in an inflatable frog costume cannot pose the requisite threat required for an official to deploy a chemical agent into the costume's air intake fan. This is excessive force and fascism.

One of the reasons I enjoy following @erinsorensen.bsky.social is because she’s fun loving. A little more laughter — and these wonderful #Huskers FB and #HuskerVB seasons — is healthy balance.

Congratulations to all the runners today at the Chicago Marathon!

I hope you’re taking a moment after crossing the finish line and enjoying all that the best big city in the nation has to offer.

I had to watch a day late.
I already knew the final score.
And I still got nervous in the second half!

Everyone listen to this to hear the origins of the $5 Bits of Broken Chair Trophy, then go donate to the Chair-ity!

It's impossible to cover the origins of the trophy better than this, and we won't try. Instead we're going to talk about the weirdest final score in this rivalry: 15-2

Thank you! I'll gather a bit more data and report back.

Another friend suggested Starlink may be blocking the Bluesky app. 🙄 I don't have Starlink, but there's a chance the same thing could be happening on whatever service is upstream from my local provider

Congrats to all the Chicago Marathon runners who had to run through a war torn ravaged city. You did it!

Big Sky out of Corvallis.

I need to try it on a different WiFi network when I get to town next. I tried it on my phone browser with no luck, but I should try it on my laptop browser. Good suggestion.

This never crossed my mind. I don't have Starlink, but I do have a super small provider in the Bitterroot.

Somebody my mom knows only just now discovered via my mom that ICE isn't only arresting cartel members and drug dealers, and I don't know how other than one on one conversations we're supposed to break through a right wing propaganda ecosystem that keeps people completely disconnected from reality.

In not-working state is the app boots up but everything is blank, including my profile. It's all empty.

Troubleshooting opportunity:

Bluesky app will only work for me on cell data or if I have my VPN on. I've done allllll the traditional on/off, restart, uninstall, etc.

Why in the world would this be happening out of the blue and for several days now?
