I don't want to say that Sen. Schmitt's office mail should be filled with Atlanta Hawks & Iowa Hawkeyes merch until the end of time, but I don't NOT want to say that.

Today is Fat Bear finals. 89 Backpack vs. 910. Both are first-time finalists & offspring of former champs. Both are large & could easily murder you. I'll vote 89 since my candidate, perennial also-ran 151 Walker, lost. explore.org/fat-bear-week

Usually the party in power tries to juice the economy before an election to cut prices or put money in people's pockets. I don't think the Trump team knows enough about economics to do that. Or those who do are overruled by Trump's ignorant impulses.

Mitch McConnell won't be able to rejoin the Senate until they authorize a very rare "open casket" session of Congress.

The usual feedback I get on scripts is Unique Setting, Good Story, Good Dialogue, Interesting Main Character. But I get dinged on supporting characters. So I'm going to fix it by cutting out all Supporting Characters! Those guys are screwing up my success. #scriptsky

Hey Trumpeteers, here's the 4-D chess your boy is playing. Hormuz blocked. Red Sea (and Suez Canal) blocked. Main oil pipeline out of Saudi blocked. Good thing so much public land and national parks can be logged out now because you better stock up on firewood for a long cold winter.

Lincoln: "Four score and seven years ago..." FDR: "You have nothing to fear, but fear itself." JFK: "Ask not what your country can do for you..." Trump: "The check's in the mail."

Only the dumbest of Trump voters believe they'll get $5K. The rest figure it's just politics. They don't care how many times he lies to them because all politicians lie to get votes. Trump delivers where it counts -- racism. And maybe one day he will send a check. But still, the racism abides.

Clay Griffith @claygriffith.bsky.social · 10/09/2026

Trump colludes with Russian agents before 2016 election. Trump tells Georgia governor to "find" votes. Trump sends goons to attack Congress. Trump offers $5000 if GOP wins election. Yet Trump elected twice & not in jail. Time to tear USA down to the studs and build over.

How long before Trump posts a photoshopped version with firemen for secret service and the fallen World Trade Center in the background.

Back from DragonCon. It was great. Susan's new book THE MONSTRANCE got love. Saw friends like @xer0.blacksky.app & David Coe & @darinkennedyauthor.bsky.social. Thanks to track leaders like Carol Malcolm & Venessa Giunta for accepting my foolishness. See you in '27. Can't wait. #dragoncon2026

Am I proud of myself that I'm in my hotel room at 10:30 on a DragonCon Thursday? No. I am not. But at least I am half drunk after a delightful stop at the Westin bar. Still 3 nights to redeem myself! #dragoncon

When we see MAGA supporters caught in the destructive power of MAGA, some media gets hopeful the regime is coming apart. But in Nazi Germany or Stalinist Russia, the machine always chewed up their own. The more it chewed, the more the survivors had to act worse to prove they deserved safety.

Mitch McConnell's light is growing faint, and if it goes out, that means he is dead! He thinks he could get well again if children believed in Mitch! Do you believe in Mitch? Say quick that you believe! If you believe, clap your hands!" #clapformitch

Clothes are destiny. Spidey's original costume is a weird design, but beloved & preferable to the black. If Spidey had started in black, that would be ranked as one of the greatest costumes ever. But he'd be very different now. More Batman-like. Hard to be Friendly Neighborhood in that black suit.

Not my busiest DragonCon, but I'm always grateful to be involved in programming. This con is all about promoting Susan's new novel THE MONSTRANCE. #dragoncon

Why is Trump just renaming Lake Ontario as Lake America? He should rename ALL the Great Lakes LAKE AMERICA. Rename EVERY lake in the whole world. And EVERY river. And EVERY ocean should be the AMERICAN OCEAN. I don't understand why Trump won't act like a patriot and STAND UP for AMERICA!!!!

What are the odds that Trump & the Sec. of Ag. won't disclose the countries involved in the beef deal because there actually is no beef deal? It was a ruse to make ranchers feel valued, but it made them feel cheated. So now the WH just wants the whole thing to go away.

When Trump is gone, if America is still viable, all these GOP leaders will slip back into backslapping "politics as usual" mode like they weren't just prepared to let a dictator take over.

Trump controls the GOP & some Dems with pyramid scheme paranoia. "Nobody will look out for you but you. Issues come and go, but these are your prime earning years."

Trump is dismantling America's post-war strategic alignments for Putin & other autocrats. No justification other than greed and vindictiveness. No GOP leaders care. A pivot to N. Korea should spark a WH visit from generals who say "Fix it, or we'll be back with tanks." We have a child king.
