I could not be happier this is failing so spectacularly.

BREAKING: Sen. Ed Markey calls for Trump's impeachment.

Quite possibly the only human being who is convincing me that the world is not COMPLETELY a lost cause.

"hey you know this regulated utility? We're thinking about selling it to this pack of ghouls for a sack of caah. They're going to strip it for parts. Raise prices, too. Probably fire some safety inspectors to keep profits high, hope you aren't a precarious mix of fragile forests and fire season."

Just trying to keep myself in rent eels.

Americans today will spend ~$590 million more on gasoline today alone versus the pre-war price. Cumulatively, for the ~79 days the Strait has been closed, Americans have now spent ~$33 billion more on gasoline alone.

I can't log into this discord anymore man they're photoshopping me into ham

Ha ha ha…

looks like a few smart republicans are worried the war might destroy the GOP senate majority (probably too late, the pain is baked in)

Time line cleanse. Words we have adopted in our family to convey concepts not adequately conveyed by a single word. “Confuzzled” - Childlike confusion, à la Winnie The Pooh “Nervacited” - simultaneously scared and excited about an upcoming task/event. Please add your’s:

Is... is this a blanket retrospective self-pardon for federal crimes that is trying not to call itself that? It is *not* limited to the IRS or to tax evasion/ fraud.

Hurtling towards a world where we all have our own AI models that run off of our own personal computers because business wrecked any online experience so badly. I look forward to adding solar panels to my data center shed, but it will be annoying to have nowhere to put the Christmas decorations.

WOOF:

those are rookie numbers

Man she is so extremely proud of herself for it

The day's Bluesky Main Character Moment aside: @wired.com has amazing journalists and I'm proud to be a subscriber.

There is something to be said about how the need of many in journalism to not be journalists but clout-chasers has damaged politics.

I'm glad they posted the video. Transcripts can be hard to interpret correctly but after watching, I'm convinced the below take is the correct one:

Like … Paxton is just a _rich_ vein of stuff like this to run against. The possibilities are stupefying.

One of the things that makes you a not-great journalist is trying very hard to make a story about yourself.

(I’ve spent the last ten minutes laughing at this so I need everyone to look at it. Look at it!!!)

That good ship and true was a bone to be chewed when the gales of November came early

If you think *Josh Shapiro* is “one of our party’s stars, you’re a Democratic Party operative who has been doing this way, way too long. [checks bio] lol

The user base is stratified between an extremely small number of whales, who will pay anything to feed their addiction, and normal people who get tricked into clicking the "use AI" button by deceptive UI patterns. Single digit rates of paying customers aren't an aberration.

"Missed the AI wave?" Nah, 3% conversion is the full size of the AI wave.

Welcome to Bluesky, @news.abc.net.au!

And it’s just not working.

Who owns Reuters?

Now watching with #FrightClub

The darkness drops again; but now I know That twenty centuries of stony sleep Were vexed to nightmare by a rocking cradle, And what rough beast, its hour come round at last, Slouches towards Bethlehem to be born?

Pointy sparrow

i don't think i am capable of believing in blorida unless and until blorida happens but those freaks are really fucking up that state like permanent republican rule is written in the stars, so

It all was so much more fragile than we realized and whatnot.

I would like Democrats to come out and say that anyone receiving assets from this new slush fund, or profiting any of the other corrupt acts from this candidate, will have 100% of their assets seized the first chance we get. Even if they get pardoned.

Democrats: more of this please. In fact, make it a core part of the party. I offer this as some kind of new deal.

Dems are polling crazy high based on the flaming catastrophe that is Republican fascist rule, so primarying as many of the bad weak complicit Democrats in favor of good determined angry ones has rarely if ever been more crucial

the Democrats should announce that they will prosecute anyone who accepts a single fucking dime Trump stole

Always worth remembering that Insider Higher Ed is owned by Times Higher Education, a one-time industry publication which has been remade as a data-analytic consultancy AND which is itself owned by Inflexion Private Equity.

Simply displacing Trump from power in the next two elections is insufficient. We must undo the incredible damage he has done to democracy -- including voiding and expropriating all of the corrupt deals Trump has made.

Donald Trump doesn't give a damn that you're paying more at the gas pump. In fact, he expected you to pay MORE.

D+11 on a generic ballot probably looks something like 40 seats gained in the House - IF we don’t get complacent. Have you registered to vote yet? Have you double checked to make sure you’re still registered? Do you have any documentation you need to vote? Start planning now.
