Trump has called off his invasion of San Francisco, apparently because a bunch of his billionaire friends asked him not to do it. I am both relieved and *furious* that this is where we’ve come to. www.nytimes.com/live/2025/10...

I'm a HUGE baseball girlie and am so excited for WPBL in San Francisco but the logo and design are cringe ngl

Nicole Lee @nicolelee.bsky.social · 6d

WPBL needs to get the Valkyries marketing team. Because... yeah, the merch and the logo ain't it

this combined with the s25 edge not selling well -- it's almost as if people don't want skinny phones

At Yonge & Dundas Jays fans are obeying the pedestrian scramble, as is the custom & returning to sidewalk each light cycle.

The reason the Mariners time traveler doesn't make sense is that of all the times in history, why come back to NOW?

Markey wears a trans pride flag draped over his shoulders. The closed caption reads "trans people because trans righs are human rights. We" The chiron underneath reads "No Kings Rally Underway In Boston"

Hello journos! I discovered what appears to be a slew of scam online stores complete with fake (?) addresses and phone numbers. I want to know 1) is this a story? Scams are common but these look particularly bizarre due to the “legit” feel and use of generative AI 2) how do I pursue this?? Halp

I feel like we've learned all the wrong lessons from science fiction.

Nicole Lee @nicolelee.bsky.social · 16d

All these movies imagine AI as sexy, handsome, attractive personas. So boring. Why not make them look like blobs or fairies or gnomes?

Word-limit: 800 words. I write 1000 words. Spend a lot of time editing things out, deleting paragraphs. Still end up with 850 words.

as someone steeped in this world, i've read more non-gadget tech stories in the past year than i've read gadget-related stories, so i guess i don't feel it as much. it's a balancing act i suppose.

Nicole Lee @nicolelee.bsky.social · 18d

someone commented to me recently that a lot of the mainstream tech outlets "focus too much on gadgets" and it made me pause. do they? or is it a normal amount? or is the deals/buying guide commerce content overshadowing the non-gadget content (because pubs need to make money)?
