Read this. Especially the bit about his dog, but what @djrothkopf.bsky.social has to say here is important stuff. I think the guy was a first-class doodyhead and you handled it well.
Sometimes I think back on all the financial geniuses who swore Trump would be good for the economy. Geniuses, they were. In their own minds.

You should too. $50 a year is a GREAT deal!
Of course, we cannot forget Minnah and Riley who make the DSR ship go.

Now for something completely different. This fine quartet spent almost 50 years every holiday season bringing to audiences songs of winter. Sadly, John Roberts and Tony Barrand are no longer with us, but Fred Bruenig and Andy Davis soldier on.

Many brilliant observations from @djrothkopf.bsky.social along with “I bring the receipts” @wajali.bsky.social for me, this conversation validates everything I have believed since 1992. open.substack.com/pub/thelefth...
Yup, Jeffrey Epstein was Right About Donald Trump
Epstein, one of the worst human beings, said Trump didn't possess "one decent cell in his body." His behavior this week proves that Trump only cares about himself, his safety, & his vulgar appetites.

Thanks, @wajali.bsky.social As a professional musician I took all of my music off streaming platforms except Bandcamp. At least they pay us decently and are pro musician. Spotify has always been evil but now even more so.

They are running ICE ads.
They aren't the only company, but I think we should make an example out of Spotify and do an economic boycott against companies supporting masked, armed agents terrorizing innocent Americans with impunity.
Spread the word.

Republicans are going to cheat & gerrymander with the rubber stamp of the Supreme Court.
It will be very hard for Democrats to take back the House and Senate.
Meanwhile, Trump will send the military to crush protests, and when he gets desperate, he'll implement martial law.
Eyes wide open, folks.

RFK, Jr. is definitely in the running for the most dangerous, least honest, least competent cabinet secretaries in U.S. history. In fact, he may be among the most dangerous, least honest, least competent people ever to hold any job ever. Ever. He is the worst possible pick for this job. The worst.
