Oh shit wait people are still allowed to write good columns?
The story the media tried to ignore on Inauguration Day is that Trump's rapid mental decline was on full display -- from rambling, slurred digressions about wall building materials to paranoid conspiracy and revenge fantasies

Another independent press recommendation. Honky by @thedrevlow.bsky.social from @cowboyjamboree.bsky.social . Recommended this over on the other place, but it was def one of the most interesting books I've read this year. Read it for some jagged style and confronting race in "Northernass Wisconsin."

It’s a mistake to think Elon Musk’s fans like him DESPITE him being a mediocre sociopath instead of BECAUSE.
Revolting mob rule, Stalinist, Maoist, fascist, call it what you want, it is disgusting, with the power of the state and social media to mobilize the US version of China's Red Guard to target civil servants, professionals doing their job.
