not watching the home run derby because apparently netflix doesn't want me to.
there's a guy running in the Republican primary for governor here who says he's a compost farmer, has signs and billboards absolutely everywhere all over the place, & has very interesting campaign expenditures
completely AI-generated ad using actual local news graphics to appear like a news story and not a scam google made $402 billion in revenue last year on this shit
was out of town so just now getting caught up on the @shutdownfullcast.bsky.social , regarding neck presses my high school weight room had one of these (assuming many midwestern schools did!) and so did my physical therapy (a nicer one, more nautilus-style) i used in rehab after my neck surgery
they had single releases sometimes not in 7" formats (in the U.S.) — the whole theory behind why they did it with some songs, and then not even consistently, doesn't make a whole lot of sense when considering that they released them as physical singles everywhere else in the world
setting aside the reporter's seeming lack of understanding of how a weak dollar works, the idea that it's purely import costs is kind of debunked here
I'm just not really sold that this is true. (using the artists mentioned in the link abstract on Slate claiming they didn't release singles, but also, just my personal experience and large, large collection of singles from the 1990s)
off the top of my head, skee-lo, i wish k7, come baby come warren g & nate dogg, regulate drs, gangsta lean tag team, whoomp! there it is snow, informer soul asylum, runaway train duice, dazzy duks a bunch of gin blossoms & counting crows & REM ones & many 7"s! including these i could find
was gifted a TV that is very old but was top-of-the-line when it came out and it has absolutely manic closed captioning display
(Now home and can confirm the Fox "4K" HDR feed absolutely had better detail in the areas that were completely overexposed on SDR feeds, though Bsky is going to convert this down to a colorspace where you won't be able to see what I'm seeing anyway, trust me)
y'all keep falling for AI generated Florida Woman headlines when the real and Minnesota is right in front of you
