Joel Ranck @this-is-joel.bsky.social · 30/09/2026As a once young professional in DC who felt like an outsider for never having been a congressional staffer, this. makes. my. day. 010
Joel Ranck @this-is-joel.bsky.social · 10/09/2026$5k? That’s less than break even after 18 months of the Trump debacle. People want health care, affordable housing, food and less effing chaos. This isn’t offering to pay cash after a fender bender to avoid dealing with the insurance companies. Give us a break! 000
Joel Ranck @this-is-joel.bsky.social · 17/08/2026That and when your HoC says this unhinged crap, it’s not just the president who is the uncontrolled problem. 000
Joel Ranck @this-is-joel.bsky.social · 30/07/2026If you looked at my posts on any platform you’d find the same thing. I still follow women’s sports. I don’t feel like I need to justify it. Why put me in a corner? 040
Joel Ranck @this-is-joel.bsky.social · 30/07/2026Yo @troyjackson207.bsky.social is such an appealing candidate. Honest and genuine. Totally unrehearsed and unflinchingly able to explain himself. @dnccc.bsky.social more of this please! 000
Joel Ranck @this-is-joel.bsky.social · 20/07/2026What about those who had USAID-funded projects who lost jobs after DOGE? 011
Joel Ranck @this-is-joel.bsky.social · 18/07/2026How this guy grew to be a successful crackhead has me baffled! 010
Joel Ranck @this-is-joel.bsky.social · 13/07/2026I don’t doubt foreign countries had plans to meddle in the 2020 elections. They always have plans to do so. The question is, were they successful? The abundance of available evidence says they were not. 110
Joel Ranck @this-is-joel.bsky.social · 11/07/2026Dude, you gotta get those appositive phrases under control. 000
Joel Ranck @this-is-joel.bsky.social · 11/07/2026That’s weird, I’m at a cafe and three young women were complaining about a rude customer at Olive Garden last night who threw dollar bill paper airplanes at their server after the breadsticks ran out. Same guy? 0120
Joel Ranck @this-is-joel.bsky.social · 11/07/2026That’s right. She should be applauded. I’m taking a learner’s POV. 010
Joel Ranck @this-is-joel.bsky.social · 11/07/2026I am happy for this person but is getting perfect marks the same as learning? Struggling with the material and figuring it are two hallmarks of learning. This is a big achievement from a top school but I’ll let it there. 110
Joel Ranck @this-is-joel.bsky.social · 11/07/2026This reminds me of the joke “a Muslim, a Jew and a Christian walked into a bar because this is what you do when you’re not an asshole.” 000
Joel Ranck @this-is-joel.bsky.social · 03/07/2026You begin to wonder if he abducted Maduro for his crimes or for his advice! 000
Joel Ranck @this-is-joel.bsky.social · 27/06/2026It’s become very American but it’s completely dishonest. 000
Joel Ranck @this-is-joel.bsky.social · 26/06/2026In DC you find a dry cleaner near your office and hang your pressed shirts on the back of your office door. 000
Joel Ranck @this-is-joel.bsky.social · 21/06/2026Will someone tell him a Rough Rider is not a condom? 020
Joel Ranck @this-is-joel.bsky.social · 18/06/2026This breaks my heart. Imagine the betrayal and sadness. 000
Joel Ranck @this-is-joel.bsky.social · 15/06/2026So now these fighters can spend two more weeks starving themselves to make weight in order to entertain Caligula! Seems fair. 000
Joel Ranck @this-is-joel.bsky.social · 15/06/2026No one would ever fly out of National Airport on a summer night expecting to leave on time. So yeah, let’s plan an outdoor event. The swamp dictates! 000
Joel Ranck @this-is-joel.bsky.social · 11/06/2026Othello kill’s himself at the end of the play. Sorry for the spoiler. 010
Joel Ranck @this-is-joel.bsky.social · 09/06/2026The high ground WRT Trump is so far below sea level that a meerkat could occupy it, morality, notwithstanding. 000
Joel Ranck @this-is-joel.bsky.social · 06/06/2026I just watched a two-minute video of a foal laying down for the first time. Best two minutes of the day! 010
Joel Ranck @this-is-joel.bsky.social · 06/06/2026I’m seeing a stage of grieving among my Republican acquaintances. It started when they called themselves RINOs to create a degree of separation. Now it’s declaring that both parties are screwed, everyone is a thief and “we should all try harder to get along.” It’s rather sad to watch. 000
Joel Ranck @this-is-joel.bsky.social · 01/06/2026But the say “the athletic department is a separate budget from the academic budget,” but the university president oversees both and both trade on the same brand. SMH! 000
Joel Ranck @this-is-joel.bsky.social · 01/06/2026Which cousin? This could refer to so many Trumplings. 010
Joel Ranck @this-is-joel.bsky.social · 31/05/2026Shred it, add 6lbs of butter and then chill for four hours. Remove from the refrigerator and make a sculpture. 120

Joel Ranck @this-is-joel.bsky.social · 24/05/2026Oil and gas prices aren’t the only thing suffering from this Trumpian war of choice.

Joel Ranck @this-is-joel.bsky.social · 15/05/2026IKR? Follow interesting people, add starter packs from those you really like, engage, and be kind. I’ve never seen my feed lag. 010

Joel Ranck @this-is-joel.bsky.social · 15/05/2026Me thinks Jack Schlossberg should have done some more interviews before going on national TV. That or have had a job. Maybe I am missing something. 380
Joel Ranck @this-is-joel.bsky.social · 14/05/2026Just to be clear, a boiled potato contains a daily supply of vitamin C and also has iron, zinc and magnesium. 130
Joel Ranck @this-is-joel.bsky.social · 13/05/2026You’re like Forest Gump! Any connections to LBJ? 000
Joel Ranck @this-is-joel.bsky.social · 12/05/2026Of course this will require large numbers of people, presumably voters. To be consistent, none of them should have voted early or by mail. Most, then, would be unable to vote in their local precinct. 010
Joel Ranck @this-is-joel.bsky.social · 12/05/2026Haven’t we heard this before in Reagan’s Star Wars debacle? Same crap, different bucket. 020
Joel Ranck @this-is-joel.bsky.social · 10/05/2026Exactly! If all we produce in the US is capital gains, we are relying on vapor to fuel the economy. Only benefits those who own stocks anyway. 170
