Just a quick reminder that Jack Smith had 86 witnesses lined up ready to convict Donald Trump, and every one of them were Republicans

Why do I have to read an Irish paper for a feature about this?

uh holy SHIT?

Yes, it's a fake. No such article, no such authors on Politico.

needless to say this absolutely must not be allowed to succeed

This is crazy man. Bluesky is the only place I “promote” my newsletter or post my stories. I’ve also never done a public sale before because I hate promo. As a woman in sports I also have to fight the understandable survival instinct to make myself small every day. this is v v humbling!

As of 2024, 2,100 US children died of COVID-19. Over 91% of those deaths were in unvaccinated children. But @nytimes.com would rather promote the Trump FDA claim that 10 children died from the vaccine, instead of talking about the 2,100 that died without it.

Marjorie Taylor Greene doesn’t want you to know my name. That’s not an accident. I’m Shawn Harris. I’m a Democrat, a husband and father, a Retired Brigadier General, and a farmer. I’m running in a special election to replace MTG. I’m the only Democrat in a jungle primary against 17 Republicans.

“Due to” is doing some work there that is contradicted by … every single thing we know about George Santos.

I posted a lot of images in 2025 like “photo of the year.” This one still isn’t the photo of the year but it cracks me up

It’s so fun to hear from @paulapoundstone.bsky.social ! she still has it! www.youtube.com/shorts/LY9Pk...

@jumaane.bsky.social spoke incredibly movingly. I appreciate that he always talks about immigrant rights and trans rights. A city for everyone. He got choked up when speaking to a "Black boy 49 years ago" - himself. Telling him that it would all be all right. I teared up.

like 75% of dem messaging right now should be “the party led by epsteins best friend is breaking into pre-k childcare centers so they can record your toddlers and put the videos on internet”

Re-upping this @coyotemedia.org article from November for my fellow Californians for reasons that speak for themselves.

We can use the date when Justin Sun funded Trump's crypto scam as the date (November 25, 2024) after which all Trump actions must be reversed.

What do you mean "but" - the people who warned about it were telling the truth and the outlets like Axios who helped Trump distance himself from it were lying.

In 2026 I want all of the decent people to remember one thing. You aren’t meant to be this disciplined, this self-sacrificing to survive. The environment is supposed to support good living. We can have that. You are not a failure. That is politics. That is all.

If you want to imagine the future, imagine a robot apologizing for making child porn in Celebrity Who Said A Slur Voice, forever

there are some really unwell people on the internet & you should block any account that makes your hackles go up even a little bit, trust your instincts, build your community as you wish.

so worth the watch

People age 70+ should not be taking aspirin at any dose for prevention. Results of randomized trials show higher risk of all-cause mortality, major bleeding events and deaths from cancer. p 153, SUPER AGERS book

standard ebooks does beautiful work with public domain titles and there are a lot of great new ones available today, including maltese falcon, stuff from christie, faulkner, kafka, hughes, lardner, sayers and more standardebooks.org/blog/public-...

The Highest Law in the Land: How the Unchecked Power of Sheriffs Threatens Democracy Jessica Pishko Another entry in the category of "nonfiction that makes me mad." The county sheriff is yet another American institution for which there can be no reform, only abolition. Very readable (or listenable).

But for some reason the USPS is supposed to make money

Texting with my fellow old ladies often means missed texts. The texts are there, but when you've enlarged the font so much that two or three lines take up the whole screen, you've gotta scroll to see the whole message. For some reason my beloved friends just will not scroll

The "frigidity of rugged individualism" (great phrase) also masks that those who preach this gospel are neither rugged nor - through connections, corporate government handouts or nepo connections - "individualists." They are "collectivists" for a decaying ruling class.

“Because no matter who we are or where we come from, we're all entitled to the basic human rights of clean air to breathe, clean water to drink, and healthy land to call home.” Martin Luther King

I said it four hours ago, and I’ll say it again: bsky.app/profile/katm...

Mamdani: I have been told that this is the occasion to reset expectations, that I should use this opportunity to encourage the people of New York to ask for little and expect even less. I will do no such thing. The only expectation I seek to reset is that of small expectations.

What if you showed up at your hotel and they didn't have the room you reserved? Or there was a shower or toilet you couldn't use. This is common for people who use wheelchairs. Even 35 years after federal law said hotels must be accessible. My NPR story. www.npr.org/2025/12/24/n...

No cheating, reskeet with the most recent photo of your pet. (Here's 2 of them)

Drivers Ed should include more physics lessons. And the written test should require a demonstrated understanding of the physics of velocity and mass and friction and all that shit

As I get older and have a deeper understanding of life I'm realizing that what was significant about living in the late 1900s was the dawn of the new millillillneum when all four year numbers changed at once. That was big.

"we're here to inspect your daycare center"

i know how stupid this is but if official dem accounts decided to make these assholes internet famous by calling them perverted freaks it would end this daycare harassment campaign and im telling you i know how stupid that is…

Mary Sheffield was sworn in as Detroit’s 76th mayor, becoming the first woman to hold the office in the city's 324-year history

I knew Trump was giving tax handouts to giant corporations, but I wanted to find out just how big ONE tax handout really was. It's shocking.

Huh

just one more thing… happy new year!

so old i remember an entire summer where obama had to distance himself from jeremiah wright. i dont think the msm has ever once asked trump or vance about yarvin.
