It’s insane to think that the Trump administration was more welcoming this week to the Tate brothers than to the President of Ukraine.

So it would appear @democrats.org have not taken any of my free advice.

I think that Democrats should boycott the State of the Union, which is pointless. Instead, of having a Democrat provide the rebuttal, they should bring in recently fired federal workers to describe the important work they used to do.

Coping with the end of American diplomacy and / or busying myself until the 8th grade dance is over in the traditional manner.

Hey @duckworth.senate.gov and Senator Durbin: great idea.

If you’re a Dem elected and you’re not mentioning the massive cuts to cancer cure and social security funding in every public appearance you’re just not doing your job.

I have people I love who vote like this. I have landed on “I am so sorry you are suffering now. You did vote for him.”

Been workshopping my response to people I know who are about to enter the FO phase of voting for Trump. I landed on “I’m so sorry you’re experiencing this hardship. You did vote for this. I hope you speak up for yourself and others and make other choices in the future.”

None of this would feel nearly as bad if the Democratic Party was run by real opposition leaders.

I am a well paid, high performing marcomm expert, and I am again called to offer free advice to @democrats.org. Here we go.

Sometimes a show comes out that feels like it was engineered specifically for me and no one else.

dear everyone else with boomer parents: brace yourselves

would jeff bezos like an essay about my personal liberty, and how i depended on medical research and reproductive rights to survive my daughter's premature birth and not have to put my life at risk to have a second? i can also talk about how the free market cost of this was $80K.

I have the agent cooper in my office, it’s excellent!

This account is too accurate

YES! @rtraister.bsky.social nymag.com/intelligence...

Finished the SNL concert tonight. Congrats to Keegan Michael-Key for having what seemed to be the best night of his life.

Also the sound mix for arcade fire and David Byrne is terrible

Watching the SNL concert while I fold laundry and you can tell who exactly has attended a Midwestern wedding reception and who has not, based on when and how they dance

Hey @democrats.org I’ve got some more messaging ideas for you, based on this week: Start the daily briefings. We’re talking Cuomo on Covid. Pete Buttigieg, Tim Walz, Liz Warren, AOC, and Jasmine Crockett take turns. Put them on YouTube and get a super pac or Mark Cuban to fund ads.

Our dishwasher start button died so we’re controlling it with app. The app’s messages are so polite and notifies me when it needs cleaning, I’m low on pellets, or when it’s ready to be emptied. Anyway I’m now in a relationship with my dishwasher. We need to find joy where we can.

We need to be clear - these people were murdered by Elon Musk and the Trump administration in the course of the many crimes they were committing. These deaths didn't just happen; they were deliberately inflicted.
