AMERICAN DREAM, 1776: I hope our new nation can someday fulfill the promise of true democracy for, of, and by the people AMERICAN DREAM, 2025: I hope the unelected billionaire Nazi fries his brain on Ketamine so someone can stop his broccoli-headed teen soldiers from crashing planes

First on the chopping block: The federal proofreaders.

Reading Your Personal Penguin by Sandra Boynton to Sean and I keep getting Johnny Cash singing “Personal Jesus” stuck in my head

Couch-fucking censored again… god forbid a man have hobbies

This is just to say I have fired the bureaucrats throughout your government Even the ones that were probably keeping planes in the air Forgive me I am not very smart So efficiency Much savings

Ready to run through a goddamn brick wall. www.thenation.com/article/poli...

He will have to be buried at sea or else there’ll be a line.

We are on top of the situation here at @insidehighered.com

every journalist i see trying to legitimize the use of generative AI for their work is now my sworn enemy y'all can participate in the eradication of your own jobs, but leave mine alone

My bus stopped at the government center and then skipped Vienna and went straight to Tysons. Now on the way back to Vienna where I will catch my train. Getting a tour of the Beltway express lanes on my own private bus at the moment.

WHAT ARE YOU DOING ABOUT IT.

Well, I just canceled my trip to the @acesediting.bsky.social conference in April. I was planning to bring my mom and Sean with me, but under the current circumstances I can’t get on a plane, with or without my infant. I'm really going to miss seeing everyone and hope some sessions can be put online

someone put their pronouns in their email signature in 2017 and now the world's most irksome Boer has my social security number

Now, why would we hate a thing that is built on stolen knowledge, sucks up all the world's fresh water, and will make every company that uses it miss its climate goals for the worst art and writing known to humanity?

Maybe I wasn’t clear about this. I wanted more egg and no plane crash, not many plane crash and no egg.

Friendship is where Rufus's brain tumor was diagnosed last year. His neurologist, Dr. Boozer, is excellent and compassionate and I'll always be grateful to her. This proves the hospital's management are equally good people.

I’m not getting on another plane until Pete Buttigieg himself tells me the pilots are woke enough to keep us in the sky

For over 20 years, I've been at schools affiliated w the Council of Independent Colleges; in my experience, CIC has been an unflinching advocate for higher education. So I'm unsurprised, but still heartened, to see this from CIC president Marjorie Hass today. www.insidehighered.com/opinion/view...

My favorite ever catch has to do with a berry cultivated at the University of Oregon, which I only knew about thanks to my roommate and the fact that it shared a name with the crackhead former mayor of DC. Can a robot give you that?

I'm pretty sure @mostlybree.kitrocha.com will tell us that's four pictures of the same guy.

If a woman had 13 kids by four different men, used ketamine and spent all her time running a shadow presidency, I’m not sure our society would celebrate her.

Not only am I vaccinating him, but I’m teaching him the difference between “their” and ”there.”

Harry Litman on MSNBC repeatedly calling Dale Ho “James Ho” and the way my head snapped around @strictscrutiny.bsky.social

How much Elon Musk makes from the government a day: $8 million. How much a senior on Social Security gets a day: $65 Guess which budget Musk and Trump want to cut?

well it has certainly been an amusing prank to let the worst people alive take over the american government for a few weeks, but I think it's probably gone on long enough
