I don’t reply to anonymous accounts anymore. Own what you say and I’m happy to talk. Just like in real life. If you see an exception, assume I have a good reason.
Bluesky is the only site where I’ve had to post something like this. Go figure.

If you think Trump's march to authoritarian power is unstoppable - or already a fait accompli - just note how panicked and weak he was tonight and he wheedled and whined about nothing is his fault.
That's not a man who thinks he's winning.

The four Republicans in the House are practicing politics, and not especially complicated politics either.
I think one reason why people stick with us is we point out how often basic politics is not practiced. The astonishment when people see it is really something.

Woah. Newsmax’s legal analyst just said Pete Hegseth and everyone involved in the illegal boat strike should be “prosecuted for a war crime.”
They’ve even lost Newsmax on this one.

Hegseth is very transparently blaming a Navy admiral for his own decision. Let this be a lesson for every other military officer: The Trump administration will issue unlawful orders, then blame you for following them.

The death of browsing is part of the reason art is the way it is now. Our opinions are largely fed to us by algorithms. Spending a spare 15 minutes wandering around a bookstore or comic shop or video rental place was how you found stuff you wouldn't ordinarily pick up and thereby expanded your taste
Bookselling is like the most "people go to the store and buy what looks cool to them without a particular agenda" type business left, and your purchases have a huge influence on what is ordered, what is displayed, and what is recommended.
