They want to keep it quiet, so you know what to do.

Hey kids, here’s an idea. Instead of going forward an hour now and then back an hour in six months, why don’t we just split the difference, go forward 30 mins tonight and quit dicking around with the goddam time.

Every day the Republicans let Trump get away with not helping the Ukrainians defeat Russia means more dead Ukrainian children. Pro-life my ass. They are and always have been pro-power.

Goddamn Zelenskyy, I could not be more proud of him. If he had said Trump and Vance, “A tailor made thee,” I would have melted.

Oh, to be judged by the co rent of one’s character than the cut of one’s suit.

I am sickened by the press conference I have been watching in the Oval Office. Thank God Trump and Vance weren’t in office during WWII or we’d all be speaking German and every Jew in America would be dead. Good God, what a little prick JDV is and what a little pussy Trump is.

A grassroots movement is calling on all Americans to abstain from shopping with major retailers tomorrow, February 28, as part of an “economic blackout.” I encourage you to join. https://robertreich.substack.com/p/boycott

So the goal of all this is to maximize human suffering and further hoard wealth. Who's with me on the economic blackout today?

@realgdt.bsky.social well, that didn’t take long. Welcome!

If you feel this way, you're not along. And together, we're going to keep the Republic. Pass it on.

You may all sing me to sleep now. Silently, inside your minds. I'll hear it.

Every day these people show us who they are

@duchessgoldblatt.bsky.social The Duchess is here! Now it’s a party!

Thanks, John Cornyn, for not voting to impeach this orange scourge who is going to wreck Texas’ economy and the economy of the US. Take a lap.

Feel like starting every day by sending out the question: “Is he dead yet?”

I grew up in Houston and my parents grew up on the coast of Florida. I will still call it the Gulf of Mexico, I’ll still use the anglicized pronunciation of San Jacinto, and I’ll still call Trump a con man because my parents did not raise fools.

Awww, true love. Gotta live my Houston hackers.

It just occurred to me that I am so old that the first desks I had in my school had a hole in them where kids from an earlier era put their inkwells.

Best Boris Karloff trivia: His great-aunt was Anna "Mrs. Anna" Leonowens.

Republussians. Just putting it out there.

The Giggle was wonderful. It felt like it ended an era of Doctor Who, the one that started in 2005, and began another. (It still feels like it's the story that began in 1963.)

Speaking of pixels, as we Wordle folk were yesterday: On the left is Gary Cooper, who in Mr. Deeds Goes to Town is accused of being pixilated, a term (derived from pixie) the film popularized but did not originate. On the right is the Mona Lisa, pixelated. 1/

Great, now I gotta worry about antivax pet owners? Rabies anyone?

Hi everybody!
