Look folks, I know it's hard out there right now, but _violence is not the answer._ This is how we finish the destruction of our society. My heart goes out to the wife who lost her husband and the children who lost their father today. We need to be better. www.nytimes.com/live/2025/09...

I know I don’t have as big of a following here as on Facebook (and I’m ultimately probably going to break my Facebook hiatus to post this there too, because safety is more important than politics), but if you’re pretty much anywhere within 200 miles of the Mississippi River tomorrow (3/14)…

I have never watched an episode of TV more emotionally impactful than season 1 episode 3 of The Last of Us. I watch it, and rewatch it, and I never get tired of it. It's a complete departure from the source material, and in the best way. Nick Offerman's performance is legendary. 1/2

Hell yeah. Hold the line. This is what we need people to do. Slow things down, don’t comply in advance so the courts have time to stop them. It’s starting to work.

Klobuchar: What is the difference between Greenland and Donald Trump? Greenland is not for sale. *boo* Klobuchar: Ok. For any Republican Trump Administration person who wants to throw eggs at me because of that joke. You can’t because they’re too expensive.

Musk: What are you going to do? 
Trump: Order tariffs to make them mine less. 
Musk: *Mine fewer. 
Trump: Shhh, don't call me that yet.”

The entire staff of 60 Minutes should resign. This would be a dangerous, historic act of cowardice. It requires an extraordinary, historic response. www.nytimes.com/2025/01/30/b...

Gosh, I remember when we had an actual president instead of a loudmouth bully who won't take responsibility for his actions.

All you need to know about the President of the United States in one headline. What an embarassment. Whatever happened to "the buck stops here"?

In case you need another reason to finally delete your meta accounts. Posting about #linux on #facebook apparently now makes you a "cybersecurity threat". distrowatch.com/weekly.php?i...

Like I mentioned before, the base product, what Facebook _used_ to be, is great. The ability to talk _just_ to your circle, to have complete control over visibility, doesn't exist in any other social network (to my knowledge).

One week Facebook-free. Surprisingly little withdrawal. Probably helps that I didn't have a free minute all week.

Pete Hegseth’s confirmation will make our nation less safe. It is a sad and dangerous day when Republican Senators put loyalty to President Trump ahead of our national security.

Character matters. It does. And no amount of tough talk on TV can make up for Pete Hegseth's distinct lack of character.

The nice thing about an intense work trip is that I’ve barely had time to think about what’s going on the world. Unfortunately, now that I’m home, that’s all come crashing down.

1/2 The thing about losing Facebook is, that as far as social media goes, it's fairly unique (or at least it was). It was the only social media that was invite-by-default. Only the people I wanted to see my posts could see my posts, and I got to make my circle.

I'd prefer to be on Mastodon, but this is better than the social media sites controlled by right-wing oligarchs. For now.
