Bluesky suspended Sarah Kendzior today for no reason whatsoever. She just shared excerpts of her articles, which were as always incisive and not offensive at all. Hey @pfrazee.com this is super not OK. I know her- we've interacted a fair bit via chats and her work is essential.

It is easy for Senate Democrats to disabuse us of that assumption — they just have to publicly make the popular call for new leadership.

If you’ve got a Senate Democrat who is not calling for new leadership, they’re part of the problem.
We should no longer trust Senate Dems who decline to come out against the leadership that led us here. Until proven otherwise, we should assume they were in on the game to fool their own supporters.

I can always tell when I'm editing a manuscript if the author is a reader or not. In no instance, has the non-reader produced a superior work.
Ironically, I can't really put it into words how I know or what the difference is. I just do know.

Not a dime to any incumbent Democrat Senator who does not call for Schumer to resign as leader. (Which will mean not a dime to practically all of them.)

There is something really wrong with people who need workers to be not just competent, but slavishly fake-happy. "Slavishly" used on purpose, bc that's where this grotesquerie comes from.
"Store employees are now required to smile if they are within 10 feet of a shopper.
They also must make eye contact with and wave to or greet the customer.
If they’re within four feet, the employee should ask how the customer’s day is going or if they need help."
🙄 Won't stop the boycott, y'all.
