Absolutely!
That feeling when you think you still have 10 more pages to read but it turns out to be all references and bibliography.

It’s pretty mad to consider that yesterday Trump claimed it was Joe Biden who appointed Fed Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell - and it barely registers.

Embezzlement, which I do not support, is not a serious enough crime to disqualify a true progressive leader like Marine Le Pen, who I do not support.

If ever there was a time for the GOP to show some integrity, it’s now. That mendacious, venal duo in the White House both should be impeached. The GOP should step up and act for the sake of our America’s reputation and standing, and remove them both. #impeachtrump #impeachvance

With Donald Trump parroting Putin’s propaganda and prioritising America’s enemies over its friends, Keir Starmer must make it clear today: if Trump continues like this, the UK will not stay silent.

I’ve rarely used Amazon over years. A soft boycott. Now it’s going to be the full monty. No more my giving money to Jeff Bezos. He’s a coward. #boycottbezos

Five things I did last week.

1. Took too much ketamine
2. Danced onstage with a chainsaw
3. Ignored my new baby momma
4. Laughed at my own jokes.
5. Neglected all of my children except for the one I use as a human shield.

Wow. Someone needs to put a stop to this. He’s an obnoxious, imperious ketamine addict, with no sense of how absurdly wrong he is.

I agree! We’re all very lucky to have @walshfreedom.bsky.social voicing his views. He’s a very intelligent person with great integrity.
No doubt in my mind that @walshfreedom.bsky.social is the bravest out there.
CNN has the 1st republican on their panel with a set of balls and with an inflexible notion of all that is right and wrong.

I hope creepy Matt Gorman and soulless Brad Todd are watching how it SHOULD be done.

@walshfreedom.bsky.social just might be the only one left.

Good job Joe!!!

David’s SotD ‘The Dim Locator’ by the Birthday Party. A jaunty song!

I make no secret of preferring the Birthday Party’s recorded output, to almost all of his Bad Seeds LPs.

I've been saying, the best way to get rid of Musk is to drive a wedge between him and Trump. Get 1 million people to send letters to the White House addressed to "President Musk," thanking him for all his good work. That would drive Trump insane.

Proud of my homie Tom. He has been making this documentary for 5 years. And then his house burned down this month, destroying all his personal belongings. Yet the film survived, debuting this March at SXSW.

David’s SotD ‘Cabin Fever!’ By Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds. It’s very cold in NY, and being stuck indoors is no fun.

The aggression and rage of this song feels representative of my attitude to our new fascist American leadership.
