Yep, staged to the hilt. Zelenskyy has always been reserved, and I suspect the staged ambush was after relentless priming (poking!) behind the scenes. JD put his oratorical loud-not-loud skills on display. I know it because I can do that too.

CBS did not 'settle' a legit claim. They were rather mindlessly trying to appease someone who has curated a sense of victimhood, and no one around him has the guts to tell him to be accountable for his behaviour! And we know where appeasement always leads, right?

So NFL, since racism *does exist* and is a significant problem, is that like 'We're OK with the status quo.' My goodness, such squirliness!

(2/2) IMO, our banks have simply played the #technology investment delay game until the problem cannot be avoided. Tech for garbage #derivatives with calculations of unimaginable absurdities to sell as investment options? Check! But tech to protect client #confidentiality from thieves? Phooey!

Let's see how #Trump the dealmaker deals with that.

Edmund Hillary scaling #Everest, Jaques Cousteau going into the ocean deep, man walking on the #moon, just more complex. Much better to spend the money making life on #earth #sustainable for ALL. Now that's a meaningful challenge. #paige

best interests at heart, regardless of who your president is. The folks who park Ohio class submarines under the Arctic ice are not the audience for this rubbish, and they are the ones Putin knows he should worry about. #PutinIsAWarCriminal

I'm one of those unintended BlueSky-ers, but would rather not be. Know what would help Rose? Post-editing tools! I don't see any in the ... menu. Deleting and reposting is so 'Free-X-ish'. Differentiate Bluesky that way. (See, I learned!)

Touchy! See anything like that taking shape? So even as I welcome you of the eXodus--get it?--I am somewhat concerned about the idea of BlueSky becoming a 'leftie' zone. Let's make it a 'healthy discussion zone for the advancement of #democracy' instead. Receipts attached.

A buffet of conspiracies, xenophobia, OF, straight-up porn, and trash TV at your service. No, thanks. And then I was 'Visibility Limited' for calling #Elon Musk's preference for a 'High-Status Males' oligarchy over #democracy, dumb.

There's something very wrong about a country that can't heat its buildings in winter but is on a constant global war footing against imagined enemies. No, I'm not a brainwashed Western idiot. Communism was an economic shitshow and died a well-deserved death. Putin need to grow up and accept reality.
