When did being uncouth become a thing? Owned by my cat, Sonny, and a very old house. Pragmatic. Logic over emotion. @birdsarentreal

And….. he’ll get reelected.

If I get 90 bucks, I’m donating it to Dem Senator in a swing state.

Will there be enough votes to secure an impeachment conviction? Isn't it more crucial to pass laws that ensure no future imperial president.? Also: - convict those that committed crimes (e.g., extrajudicial killings, corruption) - pass laws that restrain Presidential pardon power

With that hatred, I question: If the Dems get the White House in 2028, will they work to dismantle the executive power that the current administration is wielding? I fear they'll find the power convenient, and their own purposes will seem to justify it in a way their predecessor's never did.

I like it as much as being attacked by a hungry, pcp addled black bear with rabies.

Your comment about losing elections because you won’t stop endorsing genocide. I’m referring to the desire to push anyone with a voice spout their political views. Should major restaurants put it on a menu? How about TV shows? “Brought to you by people who hate genocide.” Brought to you

Are you suggesting Ed Sheeran for genocide?

Well, I was particularly irate at the moment. There a tons of things to protest. But, I think it still holds true. The Kennedy Center was turned into a collosal political issue by Trump. It shouldn’t be. It should be where people go to be entertained by those they enjoy.

He called the situation in Gaza catastrophic and unjustifiable. He only both sides the part about innocent Israelis being killed as horrific as well. This was forced by people “on both sides” that believe that everything in life is political. That is what I’m tired of.

I think many people go to concerts to enjoy the music, feel good and get away from the stresses in life. If Bruce Springsteen wants to voice his political views, most if not all that I also share, great. If Sheeran doesn’t want to voice his opinions then I support that also. He isn’t the enemy.

More and more I’m a misanthrope. Now we are cancelling Ed Sheeran because he wants the left music to be apolitical. I wonder why we lose elections. Does he need to voice his concern over the Kennedy Center, USAId cuts that are killing people in Africa, Trans rights. What is wrong with these nits.

While not a fan for how he wielded power in the Senate, he was a smart parliamentarian and Senate Majority Leader. How can his family and friends let him go out this way? Is this how they want him to be remembered?

In the 90s, I wasn't convinced anthropogenic climate change was real. But, given the potential negative impact to humanity and wildlife it made sense to act as if it was. If only the deniers could understand the risk to their children by ignoring it.

I respect your optimism, but the enthusiastic institutionalization of low behavior—normalized by the GOP and now mimicked with depressing agility by a growing number of Democrats—suggests that our descent into the moral abyss is not a temporary detour, but a permanent relocation. I hope I am wrong.

I remember how relieved I was to join Bluesky. Conversations were normal. Hyperbole was minimal. Cat and dog pictures cleansed timelines. More and more this platform is turning to the left of center X. Conspiracies, hateful speech and fear mongering seem to be increasing. Times have changed.

I can’t have a bag of cookies in my house. I can be stuffed full of food and then, as if I am a man possessed by some evil Nabisco voodoo, still eat 2/3 of a bag of Oreos.

All I care about is the Dems winning the house and/or the Senate. In states where a progressive can win run a progressive. In states a moderate can win, run a moderate. You can't govern if you don't win.

It’s not about saying nice things, it’s about not being uncouth. He’s dead. We didn’t like his support of various bills and his flop on Trump. We can be factual without being like Trump and his minions. Why? Because we are better than that.

I did not wish him ill nor do I now wish to condemn him for his whiplash politics regarding Trump. I do hope that former Senator McCain gives him a piece of his mind.

I think few people work to get anything right. Whether it’s headlines, articles, websites, applications, databases, or product engineering, too many of these are just good enough.

Because politicians are basically cowards who are concerned about reelection and party approval. The country and people are not as concerning.

DJT’s doctor claims Trump has the heart of a man 14 years younger. It’s the heart of a 65 year old man who ate unhealthy foods and consumed enough soda to dissolve a large meteor. Interestingly, the 65 year old man’s doctor said his heart is like the rotting muscle of a beached whale.

I'm confused. The plane with someone from the Congo is not allowed to land in the US because of Ebola. The plane, with US citizens, is diverted to Montreal. The Congo citizen may or may not have Ebola. The US citizens will return to the US, correct? How did diverting help?
