To the Daily Beast staffer who put “79” into this headline, know this: We salute you.

Would anyone mind just reposting this post for users in Mississippi? I know it’s an ask but I would appreciate anyone and everyone in my state to just know this is an options. also, if anything happens with another state and a similar ip ban, this repository may hold solutions as I add them.

There never was a Russia hoax - essentially everything Russia is accused of wrt the far right it is guilty of, and more

It is not healthy for us to have an electron microscope focused on the most deluded people in the US. I'm simply not getting too worked up about Messrs. "eat your broccoli" and "Sanda Surfing"

So, apparently even with the awesome power of YouTube, there's no actual video of a Boards of Canada live set.

Or hobbits? Kind of the point of the whole thing.

When I worked in theater in Chicago 30 years ago, I used to drive home on the Dan Ryan at 2 am blasting Underworld in my shitty little 80s Civic while looking at that incredible skyline. It was kind of cyberpunk.

How have I been around for half a century without knowing that flapjacks in Britain are granola bars?

I am deeply honored to receive the endorsement of @bendthearc.bsky.social, , their first ever in a mayoral election. “We are really very excited about Zohran and his platform not in spite of our commitment to Jewish values but because of them.”

It really sucks that touching the stove means children are going to die.

I have once again wisely chosen not to post about Star Wars on social media. I should get some kind of credit.

Maybe the funniest thing I've seen this week.

Seems like a solvable problem?

FITCH: “.. Fitch’s baseline assumption is for U.S. consumption growth to slow through 2026 because of a deteriorating labor market, rising inflation and weakening consumer confidence.”

Is this the big twist for the finale? The chancery ends up saving American democracy?

Will be fun if this ends up in the chancery.

Those aren't things that will be able to happen because Trump will issue pardons to every one of them before leaving. And no judge will ignore a pardon. This is just another lesson of "don't give power to the corrupt". We're going to have to choose our priorities when we rebuild.

The 19th century seems incredibly tedious. I wouldn't want to visit.

Found a Hobbit themed bakery in Maine called Elevenses. The lembas bread is very good.

In a genuine WOW moment, this administration publicly acknowledges (perhaps for the first time) that an ICE officer violated procedure and will be taken off duty and subject to an investigation.

Next time do Trump.

A mass walkout of the UN General Assembly as Netanyahu prepares to speak.

For several years I walked from Chelsea to the battery and back. I gotta start that again. I have the perfect playlist.

Sometimes (music) producers are all the difference.

Firmware upgrade scheduled for Saturday. Flu, covid, and MMR. Sunday will be ugly. Burrito taxi time.

I don't think my colleagues would call me an optimist, but I'm relatively optimistic about being able to fix this *if* we have the opportunity in 2026/2028. The framework and fundamentals are still there.

Not even peak part of night yet, but we’ve hit over ONE BILLION BIRDS in flight!!! #birds #fall #migration #LightsOutForBirds

Y'all who are putting apps in folders and/or have a full home screen in 2025 are crazy.

TIL what maculate means! Coleomegilla maculata?

Comey's attorney was in the DOJ from 1988 through 2012; prosectued Ramzi Yousef, Scooter Libby, and Rod Blagojevich; and was in charge of the investigations of Valery Plame and Richard Daley. Lindsey Halligan's biggest case so far was defending an homeowner's insurance company about a leaky roof.

Seems like the folks on here should resist being trolled by this admin's constant rage bait.

Very popular move, sir.

An ex employee texted on Tuesday "did you get raptured?" I replied that I ascended and decided the line was too long. She replied that she sank into the ground a little more.
