Fading youtube starlet
Why do fake sexy lady accounts follow me on bluesky of all places? How the hell is that revenue-generating for someone? What does this business model even look like?

I’m a mid-tier YouTuber making great-but-still-within-the-realm-of-normalcy money and I spend so much time and energy fretting about the ethics of sponsor deals I take. Meanwhile here’s Mr. Major Hollywood Star just doing fucking gambling ads for another million to throw on the pile. Dispiriting.

Pruned my shrimp bowl so they have room to swim again. Most of these guys were born in here. It’s just a fishbowl with aqua soil in the bottom and pearl weed. No filter, no light, no heater. Just in a window. Change some water every now and then and wipe the glass. A fun thing that anyone could do!

Tried to get a shot of a new tattoo, got a shot of the hottest lady I know.

Fig tree drops all leaves after a cold snap, looks like a person who just dropped their towel. “Don’t look at my fruit!”

The man-dog eating its own tail is an ancient symbol of death and rebirth.

Remember when Ozzy had to testify in a wrongful death suit against him because he once sang a song about suicide?
Panera’s moderately caffeinated lemonade was loosely associated with 2 deaths before it was taken off market.

This article alone has 4 examples of ChatGPT encouraging young people to commit suicide, and OpenAI’s own public stats estimate over a million users discuss suicide with ChatGPT each week.
I fully believe in the corporate death penalty and believe we would be a better world if OpenAI lost its corporate charter and was forcibly dissolved.

Our health insurance is going up by a third this year, even though we’ve never received any of the subsidies that are expiring. More expensive insurance for poor people means more expensive insurance for all people.
Whelp, it’s official. In 2026 with a marketplace plan, our family of 4 will spend $23,381 for the year on premiums alone. This doesn’t cover the adults’ teeth and eyes. GREAT COUNTRY GREAT SYSTEM!

Love it when people say “full stop” and then keep going.

Admittedly pedantic 🧵

The phrase “keep your powder dry” does NOT mean “hold your fire” or “ration your resources,” or “don’t act prematurely,” or anything of the sort, even though that’s how everyone uses it.

Like 12 years ago I wrote a piece for slate arguing that “terrorist” had become a loaded, incoherent term that journalists should generally avoid. Report what people do instead of labeling what they are, etc. The danger being that people would start to call anyone they don’t like a terrorist. Well..

The new suburban H&H Bagel outside Knoxville is an appalling dilution of the original NYC brand. Indistinguishable from grocery store bagels.

Lots of the arguments about why Graham Platner’s past shouldn’t be disqualifying are very good arguments about someone other than Graham Platner.

A first in five years in the new house! The afternoon sun was just right to bounce of my small fish pond and onto the living room ceiling.

I will say, I was feeling like this week was the week the bad guys finally won. Today I feel a little better, and if that’s all this ritual got me, I’ll take it.

FWIW I think the primary purpose of the new Trump agency bsky accounts is probably to attract replies they can use as evidence of how unreasonable we are here. Not telling you what to do, but I plan to not give them any oxygen.
