I never discount Ferrari doing something dumb to try and compete, and I absolutely could see them paying Vasseur and Horner at the same time to try and win after this disaster of a season, even though they sacrificed so much this season to try and win next year.

Why @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social, @chucktingle.bsky.social et al won't is clear: they THINK their reelection is locked up. They know the Americans who care don't have another option. And the second level leadership in the party is doing what they did with Biden: pretending nothing is wrong!

I assure you there is a non-trivial amount of the social media population who finds me exasperating and enervating when I show up unbidden in their feeds. I strongly encourage them to mute or block me. No one who finds me annoying here should have to deal with me! Expunge me! Be free of me!

What kinda sad, sad person would be better off without you in their feed? My day is slightly darkened by the thought.

It's apparently antisemitic to point out that Bari Weiss has no reporting experience?

Fox News host Emily Compagno claims that the backlash to Bari Weiss being named CBS News editor-in-chief is due to her being Jewish:

"This kind of thing would make me laugh if there was not an antisemitic thread in there."

Because cost increases are outpacing government investment so a they have to show they are increasing farebox revenue to be able to request more support from voters and/or governments.

Lmao WaPo has fewer than 100K circulation now. It turns out “alienate your liberal subscriber base” is not a good strategy when the Republicans also hate you. www.forbes.com/sites/andyme...

This is because you decided to take a conditioning stint in the minors before stepping up to the majors. If you’d just gone straight to running for CA Governor then you would have made the list.

As someone who has lost their personal book collection to fire, ebooks are wonderful just for the ability to not lose your books in a fire thanks to cloud storage.

There's no functional distinction between audiobooks, ebooks, and paper books.

Being dismissive of any format is ableist.
