I don't pretend to know exactly what's going on with Marjorie Taylor Greene's resignation, but I sure as shit know we're not getting the full story. None of this makes sense.

Aside from Loomer's idiocy, this is a joke that I saw literally hours after his election, and have seen countless times since.

They are very slow on the uptake.
when I was young, i used to wonder how people like this would fare in life, as they didn't seem suited for gainful employment. it turns out, the internet allowed them to accumulate a massive audience of similar idiots, enriching them and turning them into a presidential advisor

Same. I’m sure many of the same folks are here, but Bluesky audiences are especially attuned to discussions on politics and social issues. Most other topics get drowned out.

Call me cynical, but I’m not sure that 8 free years of roadside assist is really a selling point for a brand new vehicle?

I see the AI headlines have reached the, "It's not a bubble, and if it was a bubble that would be a good thing still", point.

HDPA in full victim blaming mode here. Let's remember Ms Z was:
1. 20 years his junior
2. A player he coached in sport
3. His employee
4. Threatened by him over job
5. Blackmailed by him threatening to release intimate photos
6. Constantly told no one would believe her
It's not just one bad apple Mr Mitchell but many more that failed to protect and care for this woman.

Perspective with Heather du Plessis-Allan: The woman in the Jevon McSkimming saga wasn't innocent here
So it turns out the woman with whom Jevon McSkimming had an affair, whose warnings police ignored and who police charged instead of investigating McSkimmin

My solution was for me to buy the ABBA and my dad to buy the Bee Gees.
Imagine going to a record shop in November 1977, and having enough money for a single, and being torn between “Name Of The Game” and “How Deep Is Your Love”, an absolutely brutal decision

(Anyone saying that it’s an easy choice because one of them is obviously better will be blocked and reported)
