@sgj.bsky.social; Halloween Horror Nights is all about t-shirt curation. Got two serious nods of recognition, which kinda made my night.

rarely have I more acutely felt the dynamic by which Dems are held responsible for the rhetoric of every random left-leaning person on the internet and Republicans are not even asked to answer for their own personal words

Happy Double-0-7 Day (it’s 07/07) to those who celebrate!

Has no one in the press seen “The Money Pit”? “Two weeks” is the bullshit answer EVERY jackass in construction gives.

Hey. What if I wrote a fun power-pop song called "He'll Be Dead Soon" that could maybe cheer you up, even a little bit, for a couple minutes? What THEN?
He'll Be Dead Soon
Happy new song from the forthcoming album Cokehead Event Horizon

@chrismurphyct.bsky.social: this is cool with you? Wait for this administration to defy the Supreme Court…and then count on a public uprising? Be a leader, Chris…and fight for new leadership.
Schumer: "If he defies the Supreme Court, then we are in uncharted territory ... our entire democracy is at risk. I believe that if Donald Trump should defy the courts, the public will rise up. Democrats will fight it in every single way ... autocrats only succeed if the public lets them."

Hi, just a reminder that when you use Libro.fm for your audiobooks, you support independent bookshops vs. large corporations that drive them out of business.

We also pay taxes. And so do indie bookshops.

This. No ounce of cooperation until the DOGE crime spree is shut all the way the fuck down.
Hearing nonsense that Ds are threatening a shutdown. False. Entire matter is in GOP hands. What's happening is that Rs are coming hat in hand to Ds for help because they can't agree among themselves. Ds shld have a simple demand. No help until the criminal conduct stops.

Lost my CDC contract after a visit from DOGE. I feel like I’m in the dirt (or TBH eating a pint of ice cream on a couch crying). But here’s the thing: Pushing people down—especially those with heart, purpose, and love for public service—doesn’t mean they stay down. It’s literally against their DNA.

@keithrosson.bsky.social, I just finished “The Devil by Name” - SO good - and jumped online to order a copy of “Fever House” for a friend. Not gonna lie; was a little taken aback by the actual number of reviews on Amazon…🤣

This is - easily - the funniest piece of criticism since the NYT reviewed Guy Fieri’s Times Square “restaurant.”

ok, fine, yep, you got me. I'm missing incels, nazis, crypto shills, brainwormed rich people, VC dipshits, fascist lickspittles, bothsides mediabros and wall to wall ads for gross/weird stuff. I have to come clean, I'm DYING to get back to that toasty fire of rancid vibes.
They’re in the denial stage.
