Hey fellow Gen Xers/late Boomers —

Diane at NYT is just looking out for us, that’s all. 🤔🤔

Heh.

Of course he does.

Cuz Daddy Freddy told him admitting error is for weaklings.

AND WE CANNOT HAVE THAT.

@th3j35t3r The nominations in concert with an attempted recess appointment opportunity are either so ridiculous as in the case of the AG or an attempt to tear down the specific agency’s from within. Like version 1,0 but with more radical and unabashed intent. So much so that his own “party” is pushing back!

Hey @th3j35t3r

Thx, mang.

I dunno if you know how much you are appreciated.

And that ain’t just the beers talkin.’

💔❤️🔥😎🤓

From Justice Democrats newsletter:

"Earlier this week we reached out about a dangerous bill, HR 9495, that would give the Trump administration sweeping power to shut down any nonprofit organization he doesn’t like by accusing them of wrongdoing without any due process.

Many of you spoke up and sent urgent messages to your members of Congress, and thankfully, the bill failed to pass the House — but 52 Democrats voted for it."

What the fuck is a 'Principle Associate Vice Deputy Attorney General' and why is it another of Trump's personal lawyers?

So, we're just making up jobs and positions that don't exist for the boys now are we?

I’ve read lots here today about what COSO is and what it has meant to folks personally. It’s a rare place this space and I’m thankful for each of you who have allowed me into your space as friends here. You make me smile and that itself makes me smile more. Thank you 💜

Hey @Bliss where are you retiring to -- SE VT so we can hang out?

We can even watch Mets games (next season) if you wanna...

🤓 ❤️

If people are wondering why I’m not posting as much, is because when this clusterfuck was only a possibility I trusted America to not be a bunch of racist sexist rapey people who want to make Handmaids Tale look inspirational. I truly believed the younger generation would make a good decision. They complained when we were in charge of things.

Now I realize their complaint was we were TOO centrist and not right wing enough.

This saddens me. But they get the world they wanted.

Hmmmm...

Suspicious, I am...

Seeing some vaguely quasi-Sanders-bro musing from some questionable sources...that's also very dated, by now.

THAT IS...

After Dumps "won" again (by a popular vote % less than what Dubs beat Kerry by back in '04 but I digress)...

Laughable, but concerning...

Mutes may be in order...

I guess?

Hmmmm...inflation well below what it was in other "Western democracies post-covid" or HOLEE FUKKIN SHIT THA DEMS AND KELLY WUZ RITE HE'Z A FASHIZT OH MUH GAWD BUT MUH HALFS KERR N SHEEITT

Trump: "He will end the regulatory onslaught that has been crippling America’s Job Creators and Innovators, and ensure that the FCC delivers for rural America."

No he won’t. Rural America is better served through regulation. If companies did what they wanted, we rural folks would get nothing—because there isn’t enough money to be made.

Ma Bell was FORCED to serve rural communities through regulation.

Regulations do not strangle innovation. This is a bullshit meme.

What surprises me is Republicans being upset:

(Me to the GOP)Look, the guy you ran is a criminal, a rapist, stole national secrets and you backed the couch fucker. Now it’s a little late to be saying, “Oh… but what if he fucks up the government?”

You KNEW he would fuck up the government. Let me he tried to last time. This time he knows the rules. And there is no one to stop him.

This isn't a just president-elect picking people for cabinet slots. It's an actual hostile takeover.

There. I said it.

Kubla Khan - A Vision in a Dream by Samuel Taylor Coleridge

In Xanadu did Kubla Khan
A stately pleasure-dome decree:
Where Alph, the sacred river, ran
Through caverns measureless to man
Down to a sunless sea..
