Brian Murphy @burrite.bsky.social · 02/10/2026It’s really incredible. I once pitched a story about a program I run at my public uni on teaching the Constitution and didn’t even get a reply. And before you say it….I’ve been published everywhere. I know how to write a pitch. This is a right wing rag. 010

Brian Murphy @burrite.bsky.social · 15/09/2026You know your energy writing is so thoughtful and you just seem like an unserious troll by saying trash like this. As if leftists uniquely are to blame for where we are. That’s insane. 0120

Brian Murphy @burrite.bsky.social · 12/08/2026How did a guy who won a math prize in freshman year and was taking abstract algebra wind up as a history major? I think 1/3 of us were also taking beta blockers to deal with the stress and it was just way too much. 120

He whips out his phone and asks if they support Hamas and Hezbollah and just repeats it over and over like a threenager throwing a tantrum. Just a few years ago this was plainly unacceptable. 100
