Release the JPMorgan files.
EPSTEIN BOMBSHELL: my staff is releasing a new report showing JPMorgan Chase executives – all the way to the top – enabled Epstein's sex trafficking operation. You're going to want to read this.

A small, but necessary, step on the way to flipping FL-SEN (which is possible in a D+14 environment, but though with the current state of FL Dems).
On December 9, we have the opportunity to flip Miami’s mayorship for the first time in nearly 30 years.

That’s why the DNC is going all-in to support Eileen Higgins, by hosting phonebanks and recruiting volunteers to get out the vote.

If you live in Miami, vote for Eileen Higgins!

This is the crisis of masculinity in a nutshell.

"No longer 'socially acceptable' to carry around a cool rock & show it to people you meet."

🤨
One of the tragedies of growing up is it's apparently no longer "socially acceptable" to carry around a cool rock & show it to people you meet.

So I have to respect the Chinese, Korean & Japanese for having a tradition of finding cool rocks & displaying them.

Let's talk about scholar's stones.

I’ve literally never heard of Jason Willick before, but he’s evidently a piece of shit.

Fuck that guy! We have so many mediocre white men, we can toss aside extras without fear.

It now occurs to me that an excellent side effect of the Epstein wall breaking is that "release the files/transcript/texts" can become an absolute drumbeat, & every tine they fight it, voters start to presume guilt.

This is how you get Church Committees & clean house in compromised agencies.

Yesterday, Trump defended the Saudi Crown Prince in the Oval Office.

He said he had “nothing” to do with the murder of Jamal Khashoggi.

But I reviewed a call while serving on Trump’s NSC that I believe would be of interest to the Khashoggi family and the American people.

Release the transcript.

people might think little automated vehicles with total city maps are better than trains because you don't have to walk and wait 8 minutes for a train, but that small amount of geographic and temporal synchronization increases the capacity of the system by orders of magnitude

this tawdry Olivia Nuzzi stuff highlights why I’m turning into a small-c conservative with regards to “it is unseemly and shameful for people in positions of power and influence to subject the public to their messy-ass sex nonsense on a constant basis”

Find somebody who believes in you like this random Messinian theater owner believed in Cinema Paradiso.
Indeed, Parlagreco is so convinced the film is worthy of being seen that he lets people in for free and they only pay when they leave if they have enjoyed it: almost everyone does. He even stands on the pavement in front of the cinema touting for business >> 4

Years ago I read about the difficulties streaming music orgs have with handling holiday music: most listeners want it quarantined, but the edges are more complex than you'd think (easy example, "Linus & Lucy"), and the trust costs are high.

Anyway, Apple put O Holy Night in my New Music Mix.

Right, like as soon as the calculus flips from "disloyalty to trump is a death sentence" to "disloyalty to trump is rewarded" it all just implodes
We're not rooting for her to end up president or anything. We just want her to break the spell Trump has over the cowards in his party that lets him get to do whatever he wants.

Jethro Tull “This Was” to “Stand Up”

Completely inessential to arguably the best they ever made.
Good evening Bluesky. What do you think is the sharpest rise in quality between a first album and a second album?

My choice is from "Frank" to "Back In Black" by Amy Winehouse.
