Twitter accounts are based in Russia. BlueSky accounts are based in homes with, frankly, too many books, plants, obsolete cables, and pieces of rustic pottery, that could do with a bit of a tidying up, to be honest.

I stand by my prediction made weeks ago that Trump was going to sell out Taiwan in exchange for soybean purchases.

Fun fact, this girl I was trying to hook up with a decade ago told me I HAD to read unbearable lightness of being and she would be SO excited to talk to me about it but my dumbass bought and read “Unbearable Lightness” which is Portia de Rossi’s memoir about eating disorders and Hollywood etc.

Hey Minneapolis. Is this someone’s friend? Lost on the sidewalk

Used to be, one trait associated with integrity was the ability to acknowledge a mistake, apologize, and attempt to correct it.
TAPPER: You were the deciding vote that allowed RFK Jr to ascend to the role of Health Secretary. Did you give him too much credit?

CASSIDY: The fact is the scientific community agrees that vaccines are safe. That's all I can say.

This is a Lena Olin movie.

Lena Olin > Train

Ninth Gate? Lena Olin > The Devil

Ah no. Still a suck of resources, still giving money to grifters and legitimizing their BS.

Gotta fail students whose AI in a non-AI assignment.

It’s crazy to think about the crimes we’re going to learn about after this regime ends.

We’re already hearing about Watergate level crimes every week. Imagine what will come out after it’s over.

We’re going to need a full accounting of all that’s been done in violation of the constitution.

Wait, so Ryan Lizza is charging people to view the raunchy texts from the guy who was boinking his fiance? Content aside, isn't that kind of f-ed up?

Making the PE form liable for all debts owed by the companies they purchase gets rid of most of the problem
It’s always felt wrong to me that you could buy a company by making the company take out a loan for the purchase. It just makes no sense

It’s a real big mystery.
A Ponzi schemer stole roughly $35M from dozens who believed they were investing in Covid-19 masks, baby formula, & first aid kits for Ukraine. trib.al/dzRoUhS

For whatever reason, Trump decided to include him in the whopping 143-person pardon issued the day before he left office in 2021.

Need to get rid of qualified immunity.
The teenager told officers he was a U.S. citizen, but an officer broke the car’s driver’s side window and detained him. In a video, the boy can be heard telling an officer that he is a citizen, to which the officer replies, “Get out of the car” and “I don’t care.”

Just remembering how one of the most important and widely read and dropped-with-maximally-damaging-timing "Biden is old and senile" pieces was reported by Nuzzi. It makes you think!
well, I read it, and the salient, non-gross part is Lizza alleging, midsentence and without elaboration, that Nuzzi ran numerous “catch-and-kill operations” on RFK’s behalf, which would give her a role in both his appointment and the untold preventable deaths he has abetted in office. Cool.
