I apologize for not solving all the world's issues and everyone's individual problems within the scope of a single character limited post on a micro-blogging app today, but I promise to give it a go tomorrow. Definitely. Maybe.

raskin's talk about MTG reminding me how lincoln chafee - remember him? - didn't just speak out against his party, he actually became a democrat. and the moment that happened, he lost all novelty, appeal, mystique, and the party moved on to trying to appeal to further right republicans. lmao

Before speculating about the 2028 Presidential election we should be certain that there will be a 2028 Presidential election.

Resist the urge to continue causing yourself brainworm damage reading that drivel or giving a single fuck about her. I've got 6 more mute words and it's still leaking through.

Christopher Halliburton is so close he can taste it, all that work, all these years, he can fucking taste it.
It's very funny when NPR is
interviewing an expert in something and it all feels fairly normal and evenhanded and then at the end they're like "and that was Christopher Halliburton from the Center for Exploding Venezuela"

The most generous reading is that she's dumb as a brick. Another is that she knew this was gross misconduct and did it anyway. Either way, Halligan is almost certainly heading for disbarment and the Comey case is going away. www.nytimes.com/2025/11/17/u...

I've seen a fair amount of "if you take a nuanced approach/give them the benefit of the doubt/provide lots and lots of context" in defense of both the New York Times and the national Democratic Party and I guess my question is, what have either done in the last decade to earn that?

Struck by this statement from the memoirs of former Labour PM James Callaghan on being hesitant to run for leadership because he was … 64 years old, and had been in govt for 30 years.
He was the oldest of the five candidates for leadership by 12 years.

I am so fascinated by this ridiculous building.
Strictly speaking, it's not a façade that's cracking up at 432 Park Ave. in NYC; it's a "load-bearing, concrete exoskeleton." This makes the problem much harder to fix. The engineers called it back in 2012, but hubris and vanity overruled them. lloydalter.substack.com/p/schadenfre...
