Well, it’s a quick take, and no doubt data will come in, but it sure looks like based on today’s evidence that a lot of pro-Trump and pro-AfD bot work depends directly on Russian data centers.

Annihilation always makes Halloween lists, so I thought I'd do a thread of creepy reads. Starting today with a flat-out modern masterpiece, Max Lury's No Ghosts. Thoroughly contemporary and disturbing grounded in deep characterization, and, in part, outdoing Back Rooms while also its own thing. 1

That's the Republican pattern since Reagan. They create economic chaos, the People elect Democrats to manage the chaos, the Republicans outspend the Democrats in the next cycle and claim the Democrats are doing it wrong, the Republicans create new chaos, lather, rinse, repeat.

no one reads the articles. all of the quotes assume this is because the party is broke because of (spins wheel) whatever that person is mad about today, but the reason they’re scrambling is because they’re trying to run moonshot campaigns in deep red districts they ordinarily would never attempt

In the interview he insists that store bought tomatoes are better than homegrown. Think about that, the wealthiest man in human history and everyone who has *ever* eaten a fresh homegrown tomato has experienced a joy he is utterly incapable of even imagining. This guy is so fucking pathetic

The Trump administration will start selecting lawyers for unaccompanied minors. Meaning the judges work for Donald Trump, the prosecutors work for Trump, and now the attorneys representing children will work for Trump. This is a rigged system that will result in more untold horrors for these kids.
