My entire scholarly agenda and he just tweets it out
Saw him and Steve Goodman in 1980. Small venue. Miss them both.
I gotta try. Except, I'd eat them.
I carry NARCAN in my messenger bag. Because I live in Ohio.
You know, releasing those files might be enough to tip him over the edge. Worth a try.

There was an incident a couple of years ago, maybe six, that was caught on the camera of a bystander who then Tweeted the video clip. The Sun replied and asked to use it. The owner wrote, "Sure. Credit 'TheSunLiedAboutHillsborough." Saw the thread. People still remember.
"Then I discovered bribe solicitation."

Big "Why?" energy.
Rubio is a little bitch and Donald is a cunt.
Totally relatable. 😐

Go on. Take a wild guess who was president both times.
"Smooth" move, Shauna.
Dude walked up to Emily Ratajkowski and introduced himself and shook her hand. Damn.
Rudy would've walked away from that crash if his pants hadn't been around his ankles.
Guy who missed out on being killed on 9/11 reflects on fate, doubles down on criming.
This is straight out of Thiel's "FREEDOM CITIES" idea for independent brotropolilses.
Just call President Garfield's doctors. They'll fix him up.
Those women are funny.
“Israel is destroying Gaza. Call it ethnic cleansing, call it erasure, call it genocide, call it whatever you want. I have no doubt that Raphael Lemkin, the Jewish-Polish jurist who coined the term "genocide," would declare with tears of shame that the Jewish state is committing genocide in Gaza.“
Oh, Andy Borowitz. What a gem you are.
Keep us updated. This is terrifying for DMV.
Surprised to learn that olive oil isn't a seed oil. Cutting a fine distinction there, Bobby.
Looking forward happily to the FDA setting a recommended daily minimum for lard.
National strikes sound good. In France, people bitch when some union strikes but everyone rolls with it. No one calls for the strike to end.
As Katherine Belew writes, "Bring the War Home." She uses Vietnam, but it works for Iraq. Video games and other media celebrating special ops didn't help.
Have you no empathy? How come no concern for, you know, the car?
This ad just screams, "Graphic design is my passion."
Los Angeles County has 20 times the population of South Dakota and a few thousand guards could subdue Rapid City if they tried. What bullshit.
About five years ago here in Cleveland a guy was carjacked on video. Wasn't hurt, but it's overall not funny. But, yes, the thief was foiled by the stick. Really happened.
This is worth sharing far and wide. Federal Employees and contractors oral history project. Im not involved in this. Just got the link, idea seems to be to create a record of the assault on the American Repuvlic after Jan 2025. www.fecohp.org
Is the car okay?
How is olive oil different than a seed oil? Seems picky. And what's the alternative? Lard and tallow? Those smoke at lower temperatures, which means that more is absorbed by the food. Seems fucked.
@jollygoodginger.bsky.social is in DC with other vets right now standing up for democracy. He's playing General Milleys speech on repeat for them today 💜 #LoveTheVets!
Another great feature on this 26-unit ultra-tall waste of an architectural heritage. I pray my city moves in the other direction, but with "upzoning" on every startup bro's lips, it's a constant battle in San Francisco
As an architect I can only regret these symbols of outlandish wealth. I don't understand how a great city can allow them, these money-laundering engines.
Well played, Marisa.
Trump's entire family participated in a decades-long scheme to avoid both estate and property taxes. His sister resigned her Federal judgeship rather than submit to an ethics investigation about the matter.
Nothing says, "innocence" like, "THERE'S NO PROOF HE TOOK DRUGS AND HE DENIES THAT HE TOOK DRUGS."
China is going to eclipse the US based off electricity alone. They have a modern grid and have been increasingly electrifying their economy. They have massive surpluses of electricity and a lot based in renewables. The US has an aging grid and is tied to a future of burning fossil fuel for energy.

Number One is all of us.
Because she's actually a chlidless stock photo model imagined for a furniture store ad and there's vodka in the cup.
Comment vivre cinq ans sans le Centre Pompidou, cet “organe vital” de Paris ?
We didn't have white bread before the late 19th century. Before electric rolling mills, the technology to produce it either didn't exist or was commercially impractical.
Jill Stein and Cornel West both disgust me — such goddamn, self-serving hypocrites.
I believe that her hair extensions do most of her talking.
No. It's a characteristic of the division of labor.
Just a reminder - h/t to fmr. Rep. @denverr.bsky.social (R-VA05) - that the "mainstream" political media is completely, disastrously broken. Also, Dems should NOT play their games. bluevirginia.us/2025/08/sund...
Pathetic and cowardly. Your tax dollars at work
By Morten Morland.
We built a calculator that doesn't work, but don't worry, it's also a plagiarism machine that will tell you to kill yourself. It runs on the world's oceans and costs 10 trillion dollars.
The last 3 years have been the hottest in around 125,000 years. CO2 levels are their highest in MILLIONS of years. But most people have no idea this is happening, let alone what it means for our kids’ futures. Our politics & media have failed our children. We should be furious.
www.telegraph.co.uk/us/news/2025... How is he going to come to this conclusion with no medical knowledge, when he has spent all his time sacking experts. I find this crusade against Autism deeply disturbing.
I judge you for your lack of morals, ethics, compassion, and humanity. I judge you for supporting racism, misogyny, homophobia, transphobia, treason, and fascism.

Life expectancy in the US is 4.1 years shorter than in comparable countries. This certainly won’t improve with RFK in charge of public health. 🧪

“My paintings allow the viewer to escape life, to get behind the wheel and to feel the flow of forward motion and momentum; remember the white and yellow lines of the road, the straight roadways, and the power lines.” - @granthaffner #granthaffner #tambaran2gallery
Fevered speculation about whether a political leader is dying seems to be part and parcel of authoritarian regimes. When you lose confidence in voting the bastard out, the fantasy that he's about to drop dead become extremely appealing.
We had that happen a little over a year ago. I hope there are still some good moments left between the two of you. Dogs are precious to us all.

I'm just trying to figure out where the street dancing will be. I will not miss out.
John Shin, a 37-year-old violinist who has played with the Utah Symphony, is being held in a detention center more than 500 miles away from his home.
If Republicans really think there is a national emergency to justify the tariffs, why don’t they just pass them in Congress like they are supposed to under the constitution. This is supposedly a national emergency, but they are gambling on the Supreme Court while doing nothing?
The BLM was involved or the firefighters would've told them to fuck off, I think. Article says the BLM was part of it.
I know for a fact that I never went there in all my years studying and working at the University. Not sure why.
It wasn't until I was an adult that I learned that she was part of the Mercury Theater of the Air and Welles' stable of cinema thespians. Did a lot of radio.
It's only a failure if the overcharges and kickbacks weren't as big as possible. Corrupt rulers do apparently ridiculous things just to funnel money to their friends and themselves.

Is she on BlueSky?
If he can pretend that he won the 2020 election, I can pretend that he's dead.
Gonna sound obvious but in retrospect the right's half-century-long campaign to convince the public that the government doesn't actually do a ton of useful stuff was among the most successful PR campaigns ever
Faith leaders from across Ohio gathered at the Statehouse on Monday to call for Gov. Mike DeWine to release a man being held in Butler County after he was arrested by ICE agents in July. https://nbc4i.co/45VxIOg?utm_medium=social&utm_source=facebook_NBC4&utm_medium=social&utm_source=bluesky_
Oh, I so feel for you. Dogs are so precious to us.
I watched Katrina: Come Hell and High Water on Netflix. Fuck everyone for trying to rehabilitate anyone from the George W. Bush administration.
Buford Pusser, the Tennessee sheriff who inspired the Hollywood movie “Walking Tall,” has been implicated in his wife’s murder
“They want you to believe that Israeli regime surveillance is so precise that it can see a camera set up on the stairwell of a hospital building but can’t see all the journalists and civil defense workers around it.”

Donna H. Brown, a legal permanent resident originally from England, was detained by federal authorities at O'Hare International Airport in Chicago for five days upon returning to the U.S. from vacation in Ireland on July 29, 2025. She is currently in Campbell County, Kentucky.
“ILLEGALS” MY ASS! Green card holder Rami Othmane speaks out after being snatched off the street by ICE while driving to the grocery store. He’s a documented immigrant and the husband of Dr Wafaa Alrashid, chief of staff at a local hospital. He was locked in detention for 13 days.
Not sure what play this might be from but super timely.
QAnon is back?
It's 77 Fahrenheit right now in the District.
That Trump and Trumpism are fascist doesn’t explain the sheer vandalism of unleashing mass murdering mayhem via RFK to replace medical/scientific institutions of immense value and prestige with medieval peasant superstitions. That is a criminal madness facilitated by but above and beyond fascism.
