Yep.

SO proud of my governor, Janet MOFO Mills. Thank you for standing up to this asshat. Dem leadership should take notes. youtu.be/YH8T_ld0IeY?...

Dr. Shah was a beacon of humanity. Compassion and humor as the head of the Maine CDC during the pandemic. Hopefully, he will return to advocating for sound, science-based public health policy back home here in Maine.

Seriously Google? WTF...

This is a great thread. If you've managed complex data systems that need the ability to model the state of the data at a point in time, you understand how difficult this all is. These chucklefucks look at the data for an afternoon and think they've got it all figured out and can do better

Don’t mess with @ellenlweintraub.bsky.social

That’s not just a security guard, it’s a member of the Triple Canopy private paramilitary organization that merged with Erik Price’s notorious Blackwater group.

The stark contrast between the national broadcast media on the subject of resistance to Trump & Co vs facts on the ground is chilling. apnews.com/article/5050...

Found out that TWENTY emails is considered a lot to politicians on an issue. TWENTY. As in, they call that getting slammed. So next time you see a request to email your rep, or call, keep that in mind. TWENTY is a lot.

Seems cromulent.

On a biz trip to DC this week, it's been interesting watching a bit of local news. This unconstitutional gutting and executive power grab seen through the lens of the practical realities of people who live and work here feels less partisan and simply "real."

I’m not verified on Twitter and I know there’s some link suppression. Going to try and post content here as well going forward. I appreciate anyone who reads and shares as always. See you at the arena tonight.

How dare you judge an autistic man for openly endorsing an ultra right wing political party in Germany and telling them to let go of any lingering shame they have of the Holocaust and not allow Germanic blood to be diluted by multi-culturalism

Imagine: The Beatles Solo Years @ The Gracie in Bangor tonight!

From the Sarajevo bobsled run...seems trenchant (always).

Nikola Jokic is the first player in NBA history to notch four straight triple doubles in three quarters (ie without playing in the fourth quarter at all). "Stat padding" my butt.

Rev. Mariann Edgar Budde to Trump: "I ask you to have mercy upon the people in our country who are scared now. There are gay, lesbian, and transgender people in Democratic, Republican, and independent families, some who fear for their lives ... and the vast majority of immigrants are not criminals"

15 years after Citizens United, which transformed every corporate treasury in America into a potential political slush fund, we now see the result: government of billionaires, by oligarchs, for plutocrats.

It's snowing in DC tonight. It's always tense here. That's why I left. It's tenser than normal, like a resting cat with one eye open.

ATTN: THREAD: The loyalty interviews have begun in DC. As someone who has direct experience with this, I have a couple of recommendations for all federal workers. Please share this widely, and with any federal government employee you know. 1/

Dear Modern Humans, You thought you were so much smarter than people from the Middle Ages. But you're not. Why do you think the dark ages lasted so long? It was because of greedy, insane despots who crushed progress and dangerous thoughts. It won't end until you rise up and overthrow them all.

Even worse, not a single one of the countries he mentions are geographically IN Southeast Asia. A high school geography student could make a better educated guess I asked my sophomore daughter, and she nailed it without blinking).

Every question from the senators should have been job specific like this. This demonstrates lack of preparedness. This could have convinced 3 republicans he isn’t the right one for the job

"What makes people stupid is their certainty that they have all the answers. The stupidest people are always the ones who think they have the right answers." youtu.be/D8--Ep_g9UY?...

If you take it literally, “Last Christmas” by Wham! is a song about organ donation from the POV of a ghost.
