John Carpenter @jcinhct.bsky.social · 05/01/2026Non-zero chance Trump was told by Rubio or Miller that once the Latin American countries he’s attacking become capitalist paradises with the help of US companies that all the immigrants and their descendants will return to the countries of their ancestry. And thus the US will become what they want 010
John Carpenter @jcinhct.bsky.social · 11/09/2025The terrible event in Utah yesterday is causing millions of Americans today to say to themselves- “Who??” 010
John Carpenter @jcinhct.bsky.social · 04/12/2024Have we broken the Greek language and brought about the unholy convergence of Oligarchy and Kakistrocracy? 090
John Carpenter @jcinhct.bsky.social · 03/12/2024Any of these pearl- clutching buffoons claiming Biden’s pardon provides a blueprint for Trump to follow in doing his own politically motivated pardons realize they are saying had he not pardoned him that means Trump would have let his own prosecution continue? It’s the same logic 🤪 070
John Carpenter @jcinhct.bsky.social · 08/11/2024Would be very interesting to look into why exactly everyday goods and especially gas is so much more expensive in Penn. used to be CT gas was almost the most expensive and now it’s a massively cheaper.Kinda makes you wonder after Tues, since we are told the economy was so bad is why it flipped🤔🤔 020
John Carpenter @jcinhct.bsky.social · 08/11/2024Can’t help but feel that I’m responsible because I let my 2 year NYT Crossword streak die 030
John Carpenter @jcinhct.bsky.social · 06/11/2024Hopefully not a bad take- but let’s take comfort in knowing that he will say ANYTHING that he thinks people want to hear and will get him applause. 040
John Carpenter @jcinhct.bsky.social · 28/10/2024Very generous of Trump to film a campaign ad for Harris🤣 030
John Carpenter @jcinhct.bsky.social · 07/10/2024Can there be any doubt that Trump, Desantis, Musk, et nauseum start making noise that the election should be postponed after Florida, GA and NC disasters (and those still to come?) 030
John Carpenter @jcinhct.bsky.social · 17/09/2024Bluesky now has over 10 million users, and I was #2,582,430! Thank God I’m not #2,582,431 - I heard that guy’s a real jerk. 050
John Carpenter @jcinhct.bsky.social · 28/07/2024Damn you RedSox- don’t you dare make me care that YouTube TV doesn’t carry NESN anymore! 020
John Carpenter @jcinhct.bsky.social · 16/07/2024I hope everyone is ready for him to dramatically wave the bloody small gauze bandage. 030
John Carpenter @jcinhct.bsky.social · 05/07/2024I can’t be the only person to feel like the rushed debate was an attempt to bring events to a head before it was too late. Must have been a sad acceleration over the past couple months. This time since has been to coalesce everyone into supporting Kamala. Tragic turn of events. 010
John Carpenter @jcinhct.bsky.social · 02/07/2024Maybe the political genius pundits should cease further self-gratification until after polls take into effect the public’s feelings about the possibility of a Trump believing he can president as a mob boss, as opposed to just thinking he is one? 000
John Carpenter @jcinhct.bsky.social · 30/06/2024When there is absolutely no change in the polls (or even a possible positive one) what are all these geniuses going to say??? Let’s not forget- that was also the first time millions of people got to see Trump’s mania first-hand… 000
John Carpenter @jcinhct.bsky.social · 28/06/2024People reacting as if the next poll will be 80-20. If anything, a couple points to no difference because the damn choice remains the same. A loudmouth liar charlatan surrounded by a bunch of mini- Goebbles vs. a President who has has executed policies to try to better the lives of all Americans. 000
John Carpenter @jcinhct.bsky.social · 13/06/2024Prediction: in 15 yrs “ducking” will become the all-purpose epithet of choice. 000
John Carpenter @jcinhct.bsky.social · 13/06/2024If it isn’t obvious to everyone yet- it looks like the Internet Research Agency in St. Petersburg now has a Bluesky desk tasked with Twitter, Facebook, and all the rest. 100
John Carpenter @jcinhct.bsky.social · 02/06/2024Nothing quite like the feeling you get from fixing to do a killer snarky #SpellingBee fail post and then realizing you misspelled the word🤦 000
John Carpenter @jcinhct.bsky.social · 30/05/2024Now we wait for the Supreme Court to *somehow find jurisdiction in a state matter 030
John Carpenter @jcinhct.bsky.social · 12/05/2024Never in my life thought I would see the Aurora Borealis in Connecticut 041
John Carpenter @jcinhct.bsky.social · 10/04/2024Loving how chiaroscuro is a character in “Ripley” 000
John Carpenter @jcinhct.bsky.social · 08/04/2024Just wondering- who has the marketing rights to the Eclipse? 010
John Carpenter @jcinhct.bsky.social · 23/03/2024So Russia will now invade Afghanistan and the wheel of time continues to roll. We can only hope Putin is that stupid. 010
John Carpenter @jcinhct.bsky.social · 03/03/2024Related - how concerned are these pollers about cybersecurity?? 000
John Carpenter @jcinhct.bsky.social · 03/03/2024When reports about poll results are ALWAYS preceded by feverish explanations about how they might be accurate, isn’t that a sign of a serious problem? 000
John Carpenter @jcinhct.bsky.social · 10/02/2024It can’t be waved away that Biden et al are treating the blatantly extraordinarily politically motivated report MUCH differently than Hillary did 100
John Carpenter @jcinhct.bsky.social · 25/01/2024Just curious…. Does Constitutional nullification by states apply in ALL instances? Cause if so- I’m sure we got some ideas 🤔🤔🤔 000
John Carpenter @jcinhct.bsky.social · 11/01/2024Would be entirely appropriate for the press now to ask every single R rep and Sen whether they would vote to impeach and convict Trump if he did shoot someone on 5th Ave while President. I can think of more than a few who wouldn’t. 000
John Carpenter @jcinhct.bsky.social · 06/01/2024It’ll be wild when the SCOTUS decision comes down to State’s Rights. Primaries are run by states and they establish qualification rules to appear on their ballots, so… 100
John Carpenter @jcinhct.bsky.social · 02/01/2024Kinda on the nose that they aren’t whinging about “Seig Heil” in “Holiday”, innit?🤔 040
