Fediverse! I’ve been building a bridge to Bluesky, and they’re turning on federation soon, which means my bridge will be available soon too. You’ll be able to follow people on Bluesky from here in the fediverse, and vice versa.

Bluesky is a broad network with lots of worthwhile people and conversations! I hope you’ll give it a chance. Only fully public content is bridged, not followers-only or otherwise private posts or profiles. Still, if you want to opt out, I understand. Feel free to DM me at @snarfed (different account than this one), email me, file a GitHub issue, or put #nobridge in your profile bio.

A number of us have thought about this for a while now, we’re committed to making it work well for everyone, and we’re very open to feedback. Thanks for listening. Feel free to share broadly.

@thomasfuchs I constantly had neck pain from wearing the 1710. This really brings back memories.

@mattblaze I find a lot of value in looking at them specifically in the context of the post WWII period (which admittedly makes more sense in Europe than the US) and how they break with more expensively ornate design that didn’t really serve the population in the preceding era. Basically using bunker tech to actually make useful buildings at scale.

I want to give props to @arstechnica for dropping a link to a Mastodon comment in an article. That’s exactly what we need folks in to start doing, instead of driving traffic to .

Ah, looks like it's geolocate Super Bowl Commercial season again! I never watch the game, but geolocated every single ad last year...

@ai6yr this made me ponder geolocating the set of Reacher season 2. I believe that all the big fight scenes were filmed in one parking lot, with the furniture moved around to represent everything from Atlantic City to Boston.

For the last few days I've been wondering why the iPhone weather app has been so phenomenally wrong recently. Then I noticed that I've been looking at the weather for Denver (a place where I am not).

@mattblaze I had the same thing happen to me a few weeks ago when I was worried it would snow in Denver during the Broncos/Chiefs game and I wasn’t sure who I should start in Fantasy Football. Ahh, the wonders of the modern world…

I have a new blog post ready:

https://terikanefield.com/can-democracy-work-in-america-part-1-there-are-no-yankees-here/

We all know that the current proliferation of misinformation is endangering democracy.

I plan to show that democracy-endangering conspiracy theories have also taken root among MSNBC / CNN / and left-leaning social media audiences.

At the end, I will answer the question: How can we solve the problem?

If you've been a regular reader, you will find some of the ideas in this introduction familiar, but . . .

Fox News - The FBI maintained more than 40 confidential human sources on various criminal matters related to the Biden family, including Joe Biden, dating back to his time as vice president, according to information obtained by Sen. Chuck Grassley. https://www.foxnews.com/politics/fbi-received-criminal-information-40-confidential-sources-joe-biden-hunter-jim-grassley

@w7voa this seems like propaganda, given the Senator and that Fox alone seems to be the source.

    I’m interested to see if any of the candidates to replace will have to maintain the ludicrously low threshold for a motion to vacate that McCarthy had to accept to win the gavel. The job is worthless if can just do this again. If I was I’d dangle Dem support with a high threshold and an end to the nonsense. But that would have to be ironclad.
