As soon as I heard Booker say "The people of New Jersey didn't send me here to oppose Donald Trump," I hit mute and scrolled Bluesky instead. I just don't want to hear any more of that kind of weak-ass bullshit.

Today, #KashPatel sent a letter to my counsel @markzaidesq.bsky.social threatening to sue & demanding I retract my MSNBC comments on his unfitness to serve as FBI Director. This follows his threats against media & political opponents, showing how he might act if confirmed. I stand by my statements.

Question for the crew here - can Ron DeSantis appoint himself to replace Marco Rubio in the Senate? I can think of no reason he cannot do that. He faces term limits in '26 and Rubio's term goes to '28.

Some corrections in the media are misspelled last names. Calling someone an assistant professor when they had recently been promoted to associate. A misheard year that makes someone a few years older than they are.
Then there's this.

A few days ago I met a pal, an OB-GYN who is working at a service that sends abortion pills (mifepristone and misoprostol) to women who need them in states that ban abortion. She asked me to help spread the word about how to use the service, and asked me to ask you guys to pass on the info. 1/6

Block and move on. Block and move on. Block on a whim, Block weird replies. We are not here to "win" the internet, we are here to read cool posts from experts and artists we would never ordinarily be able to interact with, and occasionally promote our own cool stuff to like-minded weirdos.
Bluesky is officially “open” now (no more invites). So just a reminder to not engage with trolls and bad actors, there is no algorithm here to promote or spread them, replying to them is what puts them on everybody’s timelines. So block and give no oxygen.
