As soon as I heard Booker say "The people of New Jersey didn't send me here to oppose Donald Trump," I hit mute and scrolled Bluesky instead. I just don't want to hear any more of that kind of weak-ass bullshit.

I think the CEO shooting was contrived by CEO Protection Service companies to sell more CEO Protection.

Today, #KashPatel sent a letter to my counsel @markzaidesq.bsky.social threatening to sue & demanding I retract my MSNBC comments on his unfitness to serve as FBI Director. This follows his threats against media & political opponents, showing how he might act if confirmed. I stand by my statements.

Question for the crew here - can Ron DeSantis appoint himself to replace Marco Rubio in the Senate? I can think of no reason he cannot do that. He faces term limits in '26 and Rubio's term goes to '28.

Some corrections in the media are misspelled last names. Calling someone an assistant professor when they had recently been promoted to associate. A misheard year that makes someone a few years older than they are. Then there's this. www.nytimes.com/2024/08/31/u...
A correction was made on Sept. 1, 2024: An earlier version of this article incorrectly said that a local chapter of Moms for Liberty had accidentally quoted Adolf Hitler in a newsletter. The group, which later issued an apology, was aware that the quote was from Hitler when the newsletter was published.

A few days ago I met a pal, an OB-GYN who is working at a service that sends abortion pills (mifepristone and misoprostol) to women who need them in states that ban abortion. She asked me to help spread the word about how to use the service, and asked me to ask you guys to pass on the info. 1/6

Block and move on. Block and move on. Block on a whim, Block weird replies. We are not here to "win" the internet, we are here to read cool posts from experts and artists we would never ordinarily be able to interact with, and occasionally promote our own cool stuff to like-minded weirdos.
