Pardon me for stepping on your closing line, Pete, but in case people are too impatient to watch: "... and remind everybody no matter how you voted, that it doesn't have to be this way."

I regret to report that I have just been blocked by @gayantichrist.bsky.social Can't imagine how I offended it.

Is it allowed to call it fascism yet, @radiofreetom.bsky.social? Because this sure seems pretty fascist to me. h/t @bartenderhemry.bsky.social

Revenge of the Nerd! Shoutout to Yves Jeanrenaud @yjeanrenaud.bsky.social

And that's not even counting the missing files and who knows how many redactions. src: www.profgmarkets.com/p/how-the-ro...

Line seen in bio: "#1 on hackernews when you search for 'hater'" How could I not? Immediately followed @anthonymoser.com.

"The fact that all postwar history disproved Hayek’s thesis is never admitted; to right-wingers, the slippery slope from the welfare state to communism is irrefutable fact ..."

Click through and look at the chart. How can there be such a gap between what the people want and where @gelliottmorris.com assesses? (rhetorical) I don't know how we fix this, but we should try. Two Senators per state is just comically unrepresentative and allows the RW unmerited clout.

Trump: "You’re going to start to see the results in a year from now ..." I miss when all the good stuff was going to happen in just two weeks.

This is goooood. Quick and to the point, too.

Ripped from context! Also, what Jeff is replying to is pretty fun. bsky.app/profile/arst...

This is all the preview you will need.

@robertwrighter.bsky.social Did not realize you were on this site. Long time no see. Do you have any comment on this? (This is NOT any sort of accusation of you. I just remember you had an interest in this field, at least once upon a time.) bsky.app/profile/josh...

This seems bad. Is this bad? "The Justice Department declined to answer NPR's questions on the record about these specific files, what's in them, and why they are not published." h/t @thefarce.org

BTW, @alexbores.nyc is on this site. His bio, in part, says, "Big AI's #1 target." Thanks for bring this to our attention, @michellegoldberg.bsky.social.

I know I should be hardened to it by now, but the cynicism and lying still amaze me. Gift article link: www.nytimes.com/2026/02/23/o...

Thanks for reposting, Jay.

Prob an unpopular take, but I'm fine with @captmarkkelly.bsky.social attending SOTU. Perhaps he can lock eyes with Trump and knock him a little farther off his game. Just showing up, after the nonsense where Trump tried to punish him and the grand jury said "lol no", is a dignified middle finger.

:D :D :D

I think that after a certain time of night has been reached, this should change to "Who's up?"

I'm starting to become annoyed by @factpostnews.bsky.social.

David Roberts is shaking his fist at clouds. And I am right there next to him. Even if I am decades older, I can still shake it. My fist, I mean. Good thread. h/t @rincewind.run

"Rosen’s stance—robotic denial and reflexive counterattack—epitomizes the entire administration’s response to its self-created crisis, and explains much about how we got here."

Does it get better? Let me put it to you very simply, in a language all crytobros can easily understand: NUMBER GO UP. bsky.app/profile/web3...

CBS IN DISARRAY

Tom is right. You'll be taken to LinkedIn, but don't let that dissuade you. A good way to spend a minute.

IYKYK

I wish @warren.senate.gov hadn't written this. Sure, it's an easy thing to hurl at Trump, but mandating a cap on credit card interest rates is a really bad idea. It will very quickly mean only that people with less than stellar credit histories won't be able to get credit cards. Such people [1/3]

Righteous post

Go have a look! Sorry. Couldn't resist.

Wait. I thought Bari Weiss was running CBS, not ...

TFW somebody blocks you, but then you find out it's someone who says things like this:

The wagon-circling discourse reminds me of when the news about jrRFK and Nuzzi first broke, and there was no shortage of journalists rushing in to defend her. A few srs disappointments. Things that have happened since shoved that down the memory hole, but it's worth reflecting on.

Nailed it!

Many People Are Saying that there is something wrong with the Discover feed. I have never understood this. I check it regularly, and often find some interesting new2me people. It's def how I got started having ideas about who to follow. I get that some bigger accounts can get slammed with 1/2

That's why I say hey man nice shot

Whose voice would it be best to use to say my new favorite phrase? "Will Stancil ... has shooters"

Every accusation is a confession: not just for MAGAts anymore!

So good I brought it over to Tw and "this you?"ed Ka$h with it.

Just realized that "Stancil" rhymes with Xcancel. (*taps side of nose*)

And I thought I had it tough, getting nothing but coal and chickens' feet for Christmas.

STOP THE SAVE ACT (Updated) My new piece is up with lots of info about the SAVE America Act - the version of the SAVE Act that passed the House and is before the Senate this week. This is a MUST READ and then ACT. open.substack.com/pub/sherrily...

"[Prime Minister Jens-Frederik] Nielsen said Greenland remained open to dialogue and cooperation, also with the U.S. 'But talk to us instead of just making more or less random outbursts on social media,' he said." Reuters did not report that he then dropped the mic. Because they did not need to.

Adam is of course correct, but click through for a laugh anyway.

AOC is doing an AMA. The question here was, "what are the skills you find yourself still using the most from your bartending and serving days" She's pretty good, huh?
