Why does it feel like, in the Year of Our Lord 2025, many journalists are just learning that Trump has a major—creepy, unsettling, malevolent—blindspot on Russia?

Did U.S. journalists actually fall for the MAGA line about Trump-Russia being a hoax?

Let me underline: it was 100% real and it is back

We need to stop being distracted by all the crazy shit Trump says daily like taking over Gaza. Right now we have a billionaire taking over the treasury department and more, it’s fucking crazy no elected #muskratlove

Hi all, We’re still here at OPM.

We have a situation where we MIGHT, and I do mean, MIGHT have four of Elon’s people blocked from the building.

Can we get press or a member of Congress down here? We’ve blocked them for two hours and they keep coming back and trying to go in.

If it were legal to fire you, they wouldn't put so much effort into getting you to resign voluntarily.

I’m sure it’s just a coincidence that the word #trump is a lyric in the REM song “it’s the end of the world as we know it.“

But I don’t feel so fine.

Every time you don't buy a book from Amazon, but use a good indie store who actually values the sale & treats you & your purchase with respect, the sun shines brighter, floofy puppies gambol in fresher grass, & Jeff Bezos's piles sting for just a biiiit longer.

Sounds GREAT to me.

Buy independent.

If you find yourself reconsidering where to buy your books in light of Target ending DEI, don't forget your local independent bookstores! I'll happily spend a bit more, and wait a little longer for my pre-ordera #booksky #target

Gosh, I remember when we had an actual president instead of a loudmouth bully who won't take responsibility for his actions.

Just read the unabridged version of Anne’s diary. Years ago I read the “school” version—so much left out about an adolescent’s sexual awakening. I mourn that the world never got to see this brilliant teenager grow up. Never forget. #booksky
