Anyone doing a whip count for Senate Dems on the CR?

The Harvard School of Automotive Repair?

Today's SPY high: 666.65. So close. cc: @hmeisler.bsky.social

“For as much grief as Eisgruber may get from student protesters — and perhaps vice versa — it’s clear from the book that he sees campus dissenters as figures who, across generations, have made Princeton a better place." President Eisgruber discusses his new book: https://bit.ly/3ILZCEK

OMG this William G. Young opinion that just dropped (12:30pm) in AAUP v. Rubio. It begins with a postcard sent to Chambers and Young's reply card: "Trump has pardons and tanks, what do you have?" WGY: "We the People of the United States — you and me — have our magnificent Constitution"

Where's a von Stauffenberg when you need one?

David Cross folks.

Do DHS/ICE agents not realize that a Democratic president will have access to their personnel records at some point?

OK, nerds: Has anyone done an in-place upgrade of their PC from Windows 10 to 11 and did it go smoothly? Did all your files and programs remains intact?

The Dow Transports have spent a grand total of 15 minutes this month trading above it's August closing price.

No matter how much celebrating you think we're going to do when IT finally happens, you're underestimating it.

If that envelope thing is the difference, there’s probably going to be a war.

I'm not a lawyer, but if the best you can get with probable cause is 14-9, I doubt you're going to succeed at trial.

Lisa Ruben: NEW: A transcript of proceedings before Magistrate Judge Lindsay Vaala reflects 14 of 23 grand jurors voted to indict Comey on the two counts that were charged. (12 or more were needed to indict.)

I see $TSLA is rallying on that report that Elon may have been an Island visitor.

Lol Transports.

Ann Selzer did *not* have the biggest miss of 2024.

There were not enough disbarments in 2021, and disbarments may not be enough in 2029.

Just fabulous A-D figures today.

I was back at 26 Federal Plaza today, where an ICE agent violently threw this bereft woman to the ground in front of her kids. She had not touched him. She did not pose any threat. She had to be taken to the hospital. (🎥: Elias Eliahu)

Open Society should file a lawsuit complaining that Singh is violating Trump's EO on funding antisemitism.

I should have realized the market was going down when not a single "sell Rosh Hashanah buy Yom Kippur" crossed my timeline.

You know, I really don't think a Truth and Reconciliation Commission in 2029 is just going to cut it.

Will Trump be ordering the flags lowered for the detainees killed?

I should have realized the market was going down when not a single "sell Rosh Hashanah buy Yom Kippur" crossed my timeline.

Change the offsides rule to make it more like hockey's. Instead of being *offside* if any part or your body is ahead of the defender, you're *onside* if any part of your body is behind or in line with the defender.

@deck.blue My Notifications column hasn't been updating for the last 40 minutes or so?

“An emotional research team became tearful as they described how data shows the disease was slowed by 75% in patients.” What an absolutely incredible, joyous achievement for everyone involved. Hurrah for science and scientists! www.bbc.com/news/article...

OMG. In the Mobile mayor race, with 85% in, the Democrat leads by 1. Not 1% percent. ONE vote.

Ruin a band with a Supreme Court Justice. The Captain and Taney. Whizzer.

How fucking cool is this @bradlander.bsky.social and @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social at Rosh Hashanna services and EVERYONE WAS MASKING! Kolot Chayeinu was one of the first synagogues to call for ceasefire. “The rabbi spoke extensively about the war in Gaza, calling Israel’s campaign a genocide.”

$SPY 666.66 @hmeisler.bsky.social

Some numbers on my stock screen are lying; I just have no idea which ones.

Well I made it through another year. Don’t know how many I have left, but I’d really like to still be here when IT happens, and when the country makes its u-turn out of this.

Holy shit Jets.

He’s part ho, he’s part man, he’s … HOMAN.

Are the right wingers now going to go to Cava and demand they write Tom Homan’s name on their bag order?

Yeah man we should really fight back by staying on X

Tom Homan was investigated for accepting $50,000 from undercover FBI agents. Trump's DOJ shut it down. www.msnbc.com/msnbc/news/t...

I really can't get over this. Just the kindest person, with the nicest family. Some states are just irredeemable and are going to have to be reconstructed again.

Ok, a week has passed, so spoiler rule is not in effect. Bayta as the Mule? Oh, c'mon. Just because her parents tried to kill her? She's gorgeous and popular. What is she? Sterile? Just didn't work for me. Should have been Magnifico. At least that makes the book readers somewhat happier.

jon stewart? jimmy fallon? steve colbert? john oliver? snl? your fucking move

Well, I just found out a professor friend of mine was suspended for her social media (which was really not anything bad, of course). Just fuck Trump and those assholes.

Interesting

James Gunn, on this week's Peacemaker podcast, talks about how Disney fired him from Guardians 3 after bad-faith right-wing trolls hammered the company. He recalls going through a dark time, realizing he had good friends who loved him, creatively realigning, and now he's running a movie studio.

Ow Jazz

MCCLELLAN: The 12-month rate of change for trucking shipments and expenditures are “below zero, which is where they typically hang out during bear markets for the SP500. It suggests the economy “has bigger problems than the FOMC and their recent quarter point rate cut are taking into account.”

I have never had such a freakishly obsessive day; refreshing email and websites for something that doesn't really need to be taken care of for another month.

Too many fucking doomers here.
