Work in IT, play games (mostly World of Warcraft), watch hockey (mostly Blackhawks), read books (mostly SF/Fantasy), consume other media, etc. Prefer a functioning Democratic Republic and not a dystopian, authoritarian hellscape we appear headed into...

I'm just going to ignore your requested preference and toss the "Dungeon Crawler Carl" series by Matt Dinniman at you. The Audiobooks of it are even better than reading it. Its LitRPG, hilarious, and addictive.

Semi-regular reminder that a sane country would have already impeached and removed. But then again a sane country wouldn’t have elected a maniac criminal twice in the first place.

This is how we treat foreign nationals from companies that are investing in America? What the hell is happening here?

I'm seeing some connecting the shooter to Fuentes' Groyper "movement" - they hated Kirk, evidently.

Clearly he has three pre-cogs floating in a tank somewhere in the White House. So. Much. Lying.

He is going to offer to trade Alaska instead of Ukrainian territory and then wind-up giving both to Putin-Daddy, isn't he?

Finally someone standing up and speaking against this insanity. I do hope your peers can keep this going.

I’ve taken the Senate floor and will speak for as long as I’m physically able to lift the voices of Americans who are being harmed and not being heard in this moment of crisis. Watch here:

Trans people exist. Trans women are women. Trans men are men. Trans people can't be legislated out of existence, and that existence does not threaten you in any way. You have nothing to lose and so much to gain by accepting that, and accepting them.

Are you or @scottpowers.bsky.social going to update the "Why the 2024-25 Blackhawks wear their jersey numbers" story - post deadline - for Knight and others (if any). My wife is, um, concerned about Knight wearing the Belfour/Emery number. Wondering if it was chose or given :)

If we really can't get anything in return and will need to retain...maybe Seth should consider agreeing to a mutual contract termination? Like Brandon Saad did recently with the Blues? I realize walking away from $41 million might be hard, but he's made $35 million so far.

This is so smart. @petebuttigieg.bsky.social , thoughts ?

And if you see this. A reminder. This is not Twitter. You can engage here and have thoughtful discussions !

We all look forward to reading your thoughts

I keep saying Dems need to do a daily briefing on Capitol Hill and fill the void, fact check the WH. Hire Pete Buttigeig and give him a staff to do this.

Is that body-double Melania already?

David Neuhoff @drossn.bsky.social · Jan 16

The folks you want to understand this don't really grasp:

1. Facts/truth - opinions seem to make them more comfy
2. Science/Physics - the concept of combustion means "rolling coal" in their pickup
3. Cause/effect - This applies the above in too complex a manner.

Hence, the cause is...Marxism?

No. Nope. Not a chance. Narcissist is even getting his wish and his sycophants are raising the flags back up for it and ignoring Carter's 30- day mourning.

Oh god, you made have trauma flashbacks to Idina Menzel's Geico ads during the 2020 bubble. Most of the links are dead, but McIndoe and Gentille torturing each other here www.nytimes.com/athletic/203...

Canada vs. USA: Being forced to watch each country’s worst NHL playoff ads

During the playoffs, it's the same ads, several times a night. And they're almost always terrible.

Did someone forget to tell the Blackhawks that the holiday break ended?

David Neuhoff @drossn.bsky.social · Dec 28

Switched over to my CHSN antenna setup and turns out tonight's game is on ESPN2! I'm watching a Blackhawks game on Xfinity and it's not blacked out! It like its....earlier in 2024 again.

Just make sure Rick Ball is pointed directly at Chicago and it doesn't rain inside MSG.

Steven Spielberg might be directing "Old Man's War"? I'll withhold my excitement until @scalzi.com has a cat officially announce this.

I always read them. Used to read Piers Anthony's Xanth stuff way back in the 80's and his weren't so much acknowledgements, but rather a little sharing of parts of his life - blogging in print (journaling?). Got in the habit to read those and it has stuck.

David Neuhoff @drossn.bsky.social · Dec 5

Interestingly, I was watching it fine on TNT on Xfinity cable...then at 7 p.m. it flipped off and shows a screen about the "The program currently being telecast is not available due to contractual requirements. "
