doesn't seem like that at all but you do you

There is no algorithm. It's just who you follow. That's why you may want to follow more people than you did on twitter. There's also a lot fewer post dunks on bluesky than there were on twitter. If you look in the replies, the posts at the top are based on your own settings, too.

Thank you. I'm enjoying your posts on blue sky.

Awesome. Enjoyed S1 didn't know about S2. A good new detective procedural (British, of course) is Inspector Ellis. The lead, Sharon D. Clarke, has an amazing presence and her take-no-bs character is amazing.

This is a nice surprise. Hook 'em!

I'm posting in case it helps one of you or your loved ones. I have a benign tumor (schwannoma) in the sinus cavernous portion of my brain and have had to get an annual MRI. No symptoms, no changes for 6 or 7 years. It was discovered accidentally. But at the end of last year they picked up some very slow growth and said it was close to my left optic nerve. The recommendation was radiation therapy. I said, sure, what the fuck. I thought it was going to be like a fucking tanning bed, that's how ignorant I was. Holy fuck, did radiation on my brain kick the crap out of me. I wasn't ready for it. There were many days I was so dizzy, off-balance and out of breath that I couldn't walk to the street corner. The off-balance feeling has continued for months - in my head it feels like I'm on a moving train going over bump after bump, or in a boat. It's been miserable. And it's now been more than 6 months since my last dose of radiation. Every doctor I spoke with (oncologists, neurologist, ENT) basically shrugged their shoulders. Dumb Harvard Med-educated cunts. All of 'em. Then on the same day in September 2 different sources, neither of whom are MDs, mentioned Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy. I was surprised to learn that Fort Collins has the oldest and one of the few hyperbaric facilities in CO and it's at the hospital about 5 minute drive from my house. I had to ask the goddamn oncologist to refer me in order to get approval from insurance and that went smoothly. Wasn't his idea but he did it. I've had maybe a dozen sessions so far. Approved by insurance. The purpose is to help tissue recover and create new blood vessels. I was speaking with one of the techs today and a lot of men utilize it while trying to recover from the after-effects of radiation to their prostate. (I asked them why it seemed like most of their patients are men. They said it goes in waves, but apparently right now they're dealing with a few prostate issues.) I already feel improvement from my symptoms. They re-tested me on a few physical tests this morning and documented improvement in my speech and balance. I go every morning M to F and lay in a pressurized glass tube for 3 hours. They have a dvd library and I've lately been rewatching the Sopranos every goddamn morning.

I was just in Busan in October. When I saw Texas Street, it was a bit wtf Named in honor of the Texans who'd go to the red light district during the Korean War. I was there in the morning so I don't know if it's more than just bars, restaurants and souvenir shops any longer.

I forget who was arguing with me that the judge would not be able to overturn the shareholder vote regarding Elonia's stock grant. Probably just another sock, long forgotten.

paywall The dude didn't start against GTech and didn't even see the field so I'd guess he's gone for good.

Elko did a terrible job at clock and time out management. I seem to recall we had a corch like that. Long ago.

If you haven't been following the thread, the last two posts in the PSA thread about xitter have starter pack recommendations. Each pack can have up to 150 recommendations, and you can choose to follow them all with one button, or browse the list and selectively choose. There's a lot of starter packs because anyone can create them. Here's a directory of all, searchable by user or key word Starter Packs - Bluesky Directory
