So we are boycotting Bank of America, yet again?

I looked at my algorithm thingy over on zucks video app and it says I like “US pollitics”. Spelled that way. Yup AI is awesome.

Happy 100th Birthday to the fab Dick Van Dyke!!!

If you’ve been waiting for the right moment to give to EFF, now’s your chance to all donations through Dec 9 get an automatic dollar-for-dollar match! eff.org/powerup

Sharing something good on a Friday!

Considering a video doorbell. Offspring doesn’t understand my hesitancy, which is based on govt overreach and security problems. Young people have just accepted the surveillance state as unavoidable. It saddens me they don’t understand why it’s a bad thing, and worth fighting.

TCM, with Carol Burnett, just showed the entire Went With the Wind sketch after #GWTW and it’s still hilarious top to bottom. Maybe the funniest sight gag of all time.

Great job by Shaheen Holloway so far this year! Go Pirates!!

A reminder that seven years ago almost to the day, the CIA determined that Mohammed Bin Salman ordered the killing of @washingtonpost.com journalist Jamal Khashoggi. I hired and worked with Jamal for a year. www.washingtonpost.com/world/nation...

Hugh kudos to Mary K Bruce for these questions. There’s nothing normal about this and reporters should be burying him.

Phil does some amazing work including this report. Which is terrifying.

The @nytimes.com should be calling for trump to resign but instead made the choice to describe these gross emails as merely “gossipy.”

It’s striking how illiterate these so-called elite goons appear in their comms.

Syfy channel has scheduled some top tier Twilight Zone episodes for tonight (if you’re the linear type.) To Serve Man Nightmare at 20k Ft Eye of the Beholder The Invaders Will the Real Martian Pls Stand Up Time Enough to Last

Linkedin is hilarious right now with rich CEOs whining about Mamdani and NYC. Babies. They are saying they are going to back that sycophantic sop Stefanik now to “control” him. Rich people are so weird. Just pay your taxes and live in a nice city. Jeez.

My favorite unhinged Cuomo ad is the one that ends with “We don’t need a mayor who’s nice!”

The closer we get to Election Day, the more we should highly question any news that might persuade people either way.

CNN just chyroning “Trump might run for a third term.” That must have been some White House meeting.

Top shelf normalization effort by our pals at the @nytimes.com here. Nothing this admin tells us is true. And if there was a money transfer, calling it a “donation” is wild at this point. Reject their scam framing of everything. www.nytimes.com/live/2025/10...

white house has joined bluesky click here to block all official us government accounts instantly bsky.app/profile/did:...

To everyone who says, "But this won't matter": *MAKE IT MATTER.* You have that power! This is not inside baseball and your friends and neighbors will likely be appalled. And if they're *not* appalled, don't be cynical yourself. Take the lead, give the cue.

Was waiting for this one. Dan Rather on the fall of CBS News. open.substack.com/pub/steady/p...?

Nice to see the @nytimes.com has its priorities in order. No front page stories about ICE invasions or trumps corruption or dementia, but an above the fold on a very old real estate deal Hunter Biden pursued once in Romania. I lol’ed when they called it an “ethical quagmire.”

Hopefully the whole Bari Weiss thing and Ezra Klein thing starts waking people up to the fact that corporate media is mostly populated with mediocre people who have made millions and gained unbelievable influence because they threaten nothing and tell wealthy people exactly what they want to hear.

I wish newspeople would stop saying something “raises questions” and start answering the questions.

Well @msnbc is doing its best bothsides reporting here about the shutdown. So I can assume other networks are doing even worse. The American media ecosystem is completely broken.

@mikiesherrill.bsky.social will fight for fair pay and workers’ rights. New Jersey, make sure you register to vote by October 14.

Why am I not shocked that 60 Minutes is profiling the head of the UFC tonight. The capitulation is complete.

You know who is susceptible to believing in magical cures? People suffering from terminal or chronic medical conditions. So there’s that.

Ew why is my feed full of disgusting republicans who trafficked women and children? The Epstein dudes, and Rubin, and Gosnell. And why aren’t these cases getting more media?

Why tf is that orange idiot standing on the tee box lol? The govt is about to shut down and this is what he’s doing 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)

NEW WIRED led the way in reporting on Elon Musk's efforts to dismantle the US government. My colleagues and I spoke to 100s of employees at dozens of agencies to understand what happened. This is the definitive story of DOGE as told by those who experienced it www.wired.com/story/oral-h...

I have to wonder what’s going to happen to the FBIs conviction rate in court over these coming months/years.

Why aren’t men more embarrassed at being associated with something called “the manosphere?” Isn’t that reason enough to rethink your life?

Gotta say, it’s crazy that so many people I thought were normal have been unmasked on LinkedIn of all places lately.

Bob Iger’s legacy?? Time will tell.

Colbert already off to the races with that cold open. 😂

Great breakdown of the “debate me bro” types.

It’s going to be comical watching brian stelter try and thread the needle on this one.

You cannot appease fascists.

Pretty sure that if crypto really had amazing (legal) benefits, they wouldn’t need all these massive PACs to grease dc palms. www.nytimes.com/2025/09/15/t...

They don’t have the power to do what they’re threatening on a grand scale. But they want us to think they do.

No idea why reddit is trending but I’ll just toss in to the convo that I saw some research yesterday claiming that 40% of AI/chatgpt answers are sourced there. Which can’t be good.

Do @schumer.senate.gov @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social recognize that Rs would love for dems to save ACA subsidies for them? That’s the starting point for negotiations. Not the win. The win would be taking power back from the exec.

Hey, you know how CBS News is getting turned into a right-wing propaganda hose? If this goes through, the same thing will happen to CNN. However bad you think CNN currently is, it'll get so much worse.

To give up, they had to have ever tried.

@cnn.com can you do a story on the massive volume of LLM bots on every social media platform? People don’t realize they are arguing with (mostly right wing extremist) AI most of the time!

He was already going to win but now he’s absolutely going to win. This is gold.

Nepo bro Ellison has owned Paramount for about two weeks and already run its teetering reputation into the ground. Will be interesting to see what any even semi-serious journalists left at @cbsnews.com choose to do in the coming weeks/months.
