Michael E. Cohen @lymond.bsky.social · 06/10/2026Not content to let his immigration police murder U.S. citizens one-by-one, the President now calls upon a foreign power to murder them by the millions. And his party by and large ignores this. 000

Michael E. Cohen @lymond.bsky.social · 30/07/2026I hear you. I have a trusty laser printer that I’ve had for at least a decade, and, though it still works just fine, I haven’t used it for months. (BTW: I write tech books and articles for a living.) 000
Michael E. Cohen @lymond.bsky.social · 18/07/2026“comparable space vehicle manufacturing facilities”? How many are there? What and where are they? Not being contentious, just curious. 000

Michael E. Cohen @lymond.bsky.social · 12/07/2026Many politicians today are emulating the Senate’s greatest hypocrite by publicly mourning his passing. What an honor! 000

Michael E. Cohen @lymond.bsky.social · 23/05/2026I’ll be missing the season finales of several TV series on CBS that I enjoy because I’m protesting the ill-advised cancellation of Stephen Colbert’s show. Worth it…and it gives me more time for reading. 010
Michael E. Cohen @lymond.bsky.social · 11/05/2026The downside to owning a lot of Apple gear is that when Apple releases OS updates you can spend hours downloading and installing them. Today I had to update 9 devices. My router is exhausted! 000

Michael E. Cohen @lymond.bsky.social · 05/03/2026The President reaffirmed his commitment to the environment today by recycling Kristi Noem: he removed her as the Secretary heading Homeland Security but installed her as a “special envoy of a Western Hemisphere security initiative called the ‘Shield of the Americas.’” 000
Michael E. Cohen @lymond.bsky.social · 01/03/2026Today the President’s vaunted Board of Peace is riddled with termites, carpenter ants, and knotholes. 000
Michael E. Cohen @lymond.bsky.social · 01/03/2026Goodness, no! Why should the tar pit suffer? Besides, burning them would contribute to global warming. An extremely slow, painful, but ecologically friendly demise is more appropriate, after which their remains should be composted. 010

Michael E. Cohen @lymond.bsky.social · 02/02/2026Punxsutawney Phil predicts 6 more weeks of winter and 3 more years of Trump, and, cold as it is across most of the country, I’m hoping Phil has swapped the durations. 000
