Oh wait. I f*cked up. This ain’t the Liz Taylor version. Claude Rains is playing Caesar, and most of the Romans look like a Spinal Tap tribute band.

Exactly two years ago today,
I met @mrjamesob.bsky.social in
Edinburgh at his book event. He was
every bit as thoughtful, kind, and
engaging in person as he is on the
radio. A true gentleman it was an
absolute pleasure to meet him. 😊

Gutted by the Dems caving after the blue-wave wins of last week? Sick & tired of us snatching defeat from the jaws of victory? I hear you! Might I suggest you calm yourself, relax, take a deep, cleansing breath... then see if this photo of 2 pandas cuddling is of any help.

I'll get back to "party unity" as soon as the Senate Minority Leader tells us if he voted for the Democratic party nominee for mayor of his city.

I'm tired of party unity only ever running one way.
