Great (and sobering) interview. Thanks @gbaucom.bsky.social
Evolution and ecology weren't named in the White House's FY28 science priorities. Should we be worried?

Just when I was sobering up! Celebration continues!

Fooler remains the sobering voice of reason.

Sobering. I lost my virginity to this record.
Happy 'The Earth Is Not A Cold Dead Place' day to all whole celebrate (released 23 years ago today). Hope the @explosionsinthesky.bsky.social gang are having a good day in Texas today.

It’s always very sobering, though.

Biting & sobering stuff from @lewisgoodall.com that rings true.

I was over here voting yes to ban foie gras from our restaurants, very sobering seeing the genuinely evil shit thrown in on other people's ballots.

I'll be mulling this over. A lot of big, sobering questions that need answering before any kind of commitment.

Well that was fun and all but those anti trans ballots are sobering as hell

We are just now sobering up

My superpower is sobering up when my friends are drunker and dumber than me so I can take care of them

A voice of clarity, sobering insight, and, perhaps, hope for all of us caught in this constant doomscrolling nightmare.

Sobering reminder that America has a looooong way to go
Idaho is apparently voting on a state gun. This is the most Idaho thing I ever seen

I have to say, it’s been a sobering election for those of us in favour of senators taking their constituents to debt collections and then defying their consultants by releasing a heartfelt ad defending this practice a day before the election. Many things to reconsider.

OMG. What a sobering thought.

Escaping Idi Amin is a horrific watch , however the comparison with today is sobering.
November 2, 2026 at 9:43 PM
'Sobering', huh?
November 3, 2026 at 4:33 PM
I'm just curious who you think you are sobering up with this bold pessimism.

As always, a good round up from @phillipspobrien.bsky.social . Sobering certainly. These weekly round ups have become a regular of mine, & give me plenty to think about.

Free weekend update is out. 2026 is going to set a record for Ukrainian civilian casualties from Russian ranged attacks--why is this not being given the coverage it should? Also, the Oleshky evacuations show how Ukrainian identity has strengthened. phillipspobrien.substack.com/p/weekend-up...

It genuinely boggles my mind that white leftists and liberals pride themselves in seeing through bullshit and sobering people on polling but when it comes to statehood in Puerto Rico they take everything at face value.

We have no allies.

Today's conference before Judge Reyes is a sobering reminder to hug your law license every day, and always tell it how much you love and appreciate it.

It can all be taken from you in an instant
