What is the US in this process? How is American power being wielded in the quest for peace? Seems to me Witkoff and Rubio are nothing more than errand boys and note-takers, and Trump is nothing more than a marginally disinterested bystander. It’s LIMP-DICK DIPLOMACY and it will lead NOWHERE.

Day 23: Tragically, Marshawn Kneeland, the 25-year-old Dallas Cowboys defensive end, chose to take his own life on November 6th. Tragic deaths like Marshawn’s are the reason #Movember promotes the emotional literacy men need to establish and maintain long-term friendships.

You heard him, #Democrats. Let’s move in and flip purple states in this order:
1. Texas
2. Florida
3. North Carolina
…and sound the death knell for the national @GOP.

This plaque on the wall at the West Point military academy says essentially the same thing that Democratic Senators said in the video that has now been dishonestly maligned by fascist GOP MAGA acolytes. (Translation: Mike Johnson is a bald-faced lying motherfucker.)

Why would anyone show “gratitude” for a complete US foreign policy shitshow?

“Zelenskyy has … sought to engage positively and diplomatically with a chaotic White House seemingly determined to end the conflict on Russia’s brutal terms.”

Long read, well worth it.

“Christian nationalism … [has] coopted the Son of God. They have turned this humble rabbi into a gun-toting, gay-bashing, science-denying, money-loving, fear mongering fascist. And, it is incumbent upon all Christians to confront it, and denounce it.”
— James Talarico

Trump’s wrecking-ball approach to America has a precedent: the evangelical perversion of Jesus’s message of radical love to one of hate and aggression

(🧵) Just had one of the most upsetting experiences I’ve ever had with AI. As a test, I asked Grok to provide me with 200 statements about “Seth Abramson” that met two criteria: they are (a) true, (b) critical. What Grok returned was the most bizarre series of fabulations I have ever seen. Thus this:

Day 17: Men are more than 3 times as likely to die by suicide than women, and 1 in 4 men in the US report feeling lonely “a lot,” the most of any wealthy country. #Movember thinks we can do better, which is why I support the mission of Changing the Face of Men’s Health.
