Once you see it, hard to unsee it. @bhgreeley.bsky.social, spending a buck to make a dollar

Its MikeOkay's youtube channel in Chongqing city interviewing Mr Li, a tradesman and laborer called a Bang Bang man. He shows his support pole that allows him to do his work and explains how it was in the past, when purveyors of such poles would sell them. The translation of the mandarin is close captioned "one cost a few bucks, and with a bit of rope, you were in business". The ref to "a few bucks" made me think of Brandon Greeley's The Almighty Dollar

Like, if nipple removal is a thing you want, I want Jafar's transformation demi-surgeon

Zoomed in on Jafar-genie on his right pectoral, he has a smudge of lighter color red (hes very red] where a nipple would be.

I will believe in a god if this perfect sperm-like cell decides to procreate lightning as it soaks up the remaining ambient asphalt heat and balloons into strikes upon a bloviator of note. Its headed in just the right direction and a perfect speed.

And 11:45pm radar map of a storm cell moving northeast over downtown Manassas. Could be just right

Compare and contrast with Rizzo's recent "hey we did all that" comments to Barry S recently.

A quote from Spencer's piece that reads "One fun note, while we're talking about stuff: The Nationals' farm system ranked 29th in whiff rate last year. It has sustained a top-10 mark this season."

I really like listening to music at work. And I try to listen to new music alllll the time, and not get old-man-clouds about it. But.... "Pooh Shiesty"?

Spotify algo popped up a recommendation for a single "MANE" by GloRilla featuring Pooh Shiesty, and chat let me tell you i cant take that name seriously.

Thats the kind of ruling good money buys.

Photo from the exposé about Clarence Thomas receiving luxury treatment from Harlan Crow by Propublica.

Photo depicts a group of fatcat dudes listening to Thomas expound on whatever seated semi-circle on fancy wooden rocking chairs.

From the piece: "For over 20 years, Clarence Thomas has been treated to luxury vacations by billionaire Republican donor Harlan Crow."

Its the preacher for the "lord Ive seen what youve done for others" meme

In recent times, the Nationals have systematically overvalued hitters who look good by traditional scouting methods—sweet-looking swings, nice shows of power in batting practice, old-school notions of physical projectability—while ignoring glaring flaws exposed by analytics—poor in-zone contact rates, low exit velocities, high chase rates

If everyone could pls get your stories straight, that would be great.

Conor Sen posts from an hour ago sharing "SPACEX SHARES INDICATED TO OPEN AT $166 EACH
.."

And another reply saying "$163 EACH" and him personally warning it could be $145 or $200

It is just a sock puppet, first hit on google

Bummer landing on 2 expansion teams in the 60s-70s. Wayne Comer is quite out of place.

90-72 team for chasinbase, featuring Roger's Hornsby, mvp Bobby Witt Jr, and 2 selections from expansion Brewers/Senators who looks really out of place.

Look i know culturally Spokane is like a separate world from most of Washington State, but moving it 100s of miles south and giving it its own state boundaries is excessive. Also "Sandy, ID" just isnt a real place. Also, I checked and the Bosnia Herzegovina team is training in St Louis

Just a terrible map of the supposed World Cup training sites. Washington and Oregon are a single state

I avoid AI topics like the plague but this made me laugh & reminded me what arrived in my work inbox this morning... prepare yourselves. Lost my shit at "Give it time". Think these morons are starting to get antsy?

"Treat AI like a new hire, not just a tool.
By Maya Rock

At the Microsoft AI tour in New York this January, held ag the Jacob javits center, a speaker advised that one think of AI as a new employee you're building a relationship with. Invest time in the relationship and you'll get good results. I took his advice to heart. Below are some ways in which i stopped treating AI like a tool and started treating it like a hire.

Give It Time
There have been several times ive given AI a task - editing transcripts for instance - that it didnt quite grasp. Each time I'd ask, it would take longer than expected to get to a good result."

And while I like doing alt text I want the poasters to know i sacrificed brain cells transcribing this.

The ~12 month view shows futures contracts pricing 58% chance of higher fed funds rate, and only 42% chance of staying at the current rate. (Cut? lol) I like the fedwatch historical stacked chart bc highlights inflectiona Green = current rate Yellow/blue/orange, hikes Grey = vanishing cut

FedWatch chart from cmegroup, historical chart showing daily rate probabilities for a given meeting (Apr 27).

So curious what Spotify algo would assemble for me under the keyword "rage" and it's all women vocalists or all women bands
