It gets harder by the day not to characterize this administration as distinctly “north korean” when the White House senior staff is about fifteen inches away from declaring Trump invented the moon and the stars, and currently argue things like that he invented in Geico Gecco

@bsky.app - why is your "Muted words and phrases" not blocking these? This person is just one big monetization, brash talking just for clicks and fame. I transitioned to #BlueSky because the prospect of better moderation. I'd like a non-bot response to how to block Steven A. Smith from my feed.

This is what serving Trump looks like. You can be incredibly incompetent as long as you’re loyal and extremely sycophantic.

Hegseth proved that it's possible to give an update on the Iran bombing and blow POTUS simultaneously.

What better way to observe the end of slavery than a rich old white man yelling to work harder.

I've got THREE trial subscriptions to Charlie Sykes "On the Contrary" Substack. I have a paid sub and I really enjoy his content. Send me a text or DM if you want a free trial of his paid content.

I understand why media has paywalls. But in a case like this, maybe just adding the name of the business to the headline or synopsis might get locals to patronize this "struggling" business. What I won't be doing is paying LVRJ to find out the name of this guy's restaurant.

I'm just glad one of these men has the nuclear codes and the other has all our personal data.

John McEnroe: "That Stanley Cup Finals, that start at 7 eastern or is that the pre-game show?" Brian Anderson: "That's when you wanna start watching..." McEnroe: "The puck drops when?" Anderson: "No, no, we're gonna hold that information..." McEnroe: "I'm sorry I asked..." 😅

All Brewers I Covered Grid. Might get it tattooed on my chest tbqh.

A couple episodes didn't hit, but I'm 8 episodes into 'The Studio' and some of these episodes are honestly some of the funnier TV episodes I've seen in the last decade. Consistent chaos and biting taboo dialogue. It's dumb and fun and rings totally true. Strong recommend.

Justin Wolfers has pointed out that most precision manufacturing machines are made in Europe. So just by threatening these tariffs, Trump is undermining his stated goal for all the other tariffs. In case you needed more evidence that he has no idea what the fuck he’s doing.

I always write-up trip reports when I go to Las Vegas and Reno. This year I went to Baton Rouge, LA to bowl the National tournament, and decided to journal my drive down south in an #EV Ford Mustang #Mach-E. www.vegasmessageboard.com/forums/index...

I love to celebrate Philly’s Italian Market Festival by drinking one margarita, eating three tacos, and getting absolutely nothing of Italian origin.

Step 1. Announce arbitrary tariffs for each country Step 2. When markets crash, pause those tariffs and say they're just leverage for deals Step 3. Promise deals Step 4. Fail to make deals Step 5. Announce arbitrary tariffs for each country ...and yes, I find it hard to keep my cool, sometimes.

constantly lowkey annoyed that we dont have a norm of micro payments for articles. i dont want to make a new account, i dont want another subscription, i want to give you the cost of a cup of bad drip coffee and then i want to read the article. that's it.
