I don't post much and I get followed from time to time. If you follow me and I follow you back, and the first thing that happens is you message me "how's your morning going", either you are a bot or I don't wish to engage with you, you're getting blocked. I have enough friends.

Who the hell cares who Hasan Piker is? He didn't exist for me before this month. Once again, CNN keeps hammering an inconsequential person into a daily news story. No wonder I stopped watching them a long time ago.

Why oh why aren't Dems hammering AI, data centers, and Flock over and over and over? We finally have issues that resonate with the common Joe and Jane. Don't talk about anything else on the talk shows.

@hakeemjeffries74.bsky.social just committed political suicide this week. I can't see any way that he can kiss what needs kissing in order to keep his leadership position. He'll be lucky if he keeps his seat.

So, 300 thousand tons of ground beef from unknown sources. I wonder about the logistics. We have 73 days until the election. Can it get shipped, inspected, brought to market from wherever, I am assuming South America. And what about our domestic producers? MAGA doesn't care about them.

I love how the GOP senate leadership gave a fig leaf to Collins and Murkowski. When I heard Collins say she was voting no, I knew the fix was in. Now why won't someone park outside of Mitch McConnell's house to look for signs of life?

Every vote to confirm Todd Blanche as attorney general is a vote to continue the coverup of the Epstein Files.

Remember this whole Fauci dog-and-pony is a desperate attack to distract you from Iran and Epstein. It shows how despicable the GOP is.

Nobody in the U.S. Senate is more responsible for the overturning of Roe v. Wade than Susan Collins. In November, we will defeat her.

This morning in Biddeford, Maine, a 26-year-old man said goodbye to his wife and daughter and left for work. Moments later he was dead, shot in the head by ICE agents, the second man ICE has killed in six days. ICE is killing our neighbors. ICE cannot be reformed. Abolish ICE.

These are the exact words she posted: “BREAKING: The ICE agent who shot and killed Renee Good in broad daylight has been identified as Jonathan Ross by the Minnesota Star Tribune. I think today is a great day for Jonathan to be indicted!”

It's not 1536, but Anne Boleyn has taken over the news. Recently a team of computer scientists, electrical engineers and a historical novelist think they have discovered the “true face” of Anne (& her mother) by applying AI-based computational facial recognition to Holbein sketches. The catch? /1

If there's one good thing about the brazen racism of the Supreme Court is that it makes it a lot easier for middle of the road Dems to rationalize packing the court.

Mental health care
4 frame street reporter comic. the reporter, off frame, asks someone waiting for the subway, with a dark long jacket, a gold and red scarf and round glasses : miss! any thoughts about
the newest study showing
that trans people's mental
health deteriorates after
starting gender-affirming
treatment?
she replies : 
kaltiala's paper didn't measure
mental health deterioration. it
measured how many trans people
visited a psychiatrist after
getting their diagnosis from the
finnish gender clinic, which forces
trans people to be screened
extensively every 3-6 months
during their treatment.
this paper counts any visit
to a psychiatrist, including
when the patient is cleared of
any issue, as a sign of "mental
health deterioration". that metho-
dological flaw is mentioned in the
paper*, but that didn't stop any of
these powerful anti-trans
bigots to share it online.

Finnish "Study" Does Not Prove "Trans Youth
Care Leads To Worse Outcomes"

Yesterday, I flew from Portland to London. Our flight was delayed 40 min. by CBP detaining someone on the inbound flight. I saw a young woman getting on the plane after the delay. She did not look like a terrorist; she looked crushed. She took a 9-hr flight in then a 9-hr flight back for nothing.

Say it loud. Kavanaugh hates the phrase "Kavanaugh stops" that allows racial profiling based on his ruling this last fall. He added a concurrence on an unrelated decision that says he's against racial profiling. Problem: that carries no precedent. So, thanks Susan Collins for saddling us with him.
