That's amazing. I had to keep going back and forth, and I'm still not 100% positive which is the painting.

Billionaires are the black holes of the sociopolitical universe. They hunger endlessly. Their reach extends beyond any imagination. Most importantly, they cannot be introduced to any existing stable system without inevitably destroying it.

Again, billionaires are like black holes: They have insatiable hunger. They have enormous reach. They rewrite the basic rules that apply to everything around them. Introduce one to any existing stable system will always result in that system's inevitable destruction. Always.

Thank you for interacting with my post. Please pardon the question, but what is a "death worker?" I'm rabidly curious. (Almost said "morbidly" but didn't want to be mistaken for showing disrespect if it was related.)

"Useful idiots." Anyone who ends up sowing division in our party is helping the GOP and should be treated identically. Just like how MAGAts self-hypnotize by reciting their untruths when we try to debunk them, so will a True Believer Liberal Extremist. Block them. If you can't, then mute them.

The incoming administration fits perfectly with 45's real estate standard operating procedures. The first step in any renovation is demolishing the existing structure. He is nominating a wrecking crew, not a Cabinet.

It's only rumored, for now. However, we can rest assured (and uneasily) that the final candidate will be of equal lack-of-quality.

@briantylercohen.bsky.social - the article is about his mother disavowing this earlier email. Please, we mustn't sacrifice truth for victory. Civility, reason, logic, yes. But we cannot weaponize untruths.

Screenshot of the same NY Times article, with following paragraphs for added context, which read,

"
“On behalf of all the women (and I know it’s many) you have abused in some way, I say … get some help and take an honest look at yourself,” Penelope Hegseth wrote, stating that she still loved him.

She also wrote: “I have no respect for any man that belittles, lies, cheats, sleeps around and uses women for his own power and ego. You are that man (and have been for years) and as your mother, it pains me and embarrasses me to say that, but it is the sad, sad truth.”

Mrs. Hegseth, in a phone interview with The New York Times on Friday, said that she had sent her son an immediate follow-up email at the time apologizing for what she had written. She said she had fired off the original email “in anger, with emotion” at a time when he and his wife were going through a very difficult divorce.

In the interview, she defended her son and disavowed the sentiments she had expressed in the initial email about his character and treatment of women. “It is not true. It has never been true,” she said. She added: “I know my son. He is a good father, husband.” She said that publishing the contents of the first email was “disgusting.”

We don't have a choice this time. Then again, the electorate all have miniscule memories. Remember the Big Lie about Iraq? They didn't. Remember the Great Recession? What year did it start? Who was POTUS during that time? What year did it end? Who was POTUS during **that** time?

MAGA is "political meth." I prefer to think of it as "political fentanyl" because it targets the same audience: Those who lost their jobs due to technology's inexorable March forward Those who realized being male and white wasn't enough to make it in life. Those who needed to live in fantasy.

Need to kill Citizens United and do a full forensics and accounting of all campaign finances and donations. Right and left. I'd like everybody to see who held back on Biden and Pelosi tiptoes around.

If I had to prioritize, I'd say Citizens United was the most damaging and dangerous ruling from the Roberts court even over Dobbs and Hobby Lobby. Yes, even over Presidential Immunity. Citizens United was the first domino to topple, and it fed into all the rest.

Remember, both world wars were acknowledged as such only in hindsight. During the first years of either war, the uninvolved nations viewed those initial conflicts as "Somebody else's problem." I think it prudent to consider ourselves at the start of World War Three. As always, you do you.

I approve of what George Conway and the never 45ers are doing, but until they embrace progressive causes such as Universal Basic Income and Universal Healthcare, I don't consider them allies. Not everybody riding on this train will break bread with everybody else after we deboard.
