@Ms420 good morning!!
@PatrickKay I have wondered the same thing, particularly when this place is far better than the others.

It doesn’t matter if their endorsement of VP Harris had an effect on the outcome of the election, it would have showed that they do care about democracy, I’m so happy the newspaper is taking a dive;
“ In the tumultuous period that followed the paper’s decision to spike its endorsement of Kamala Harris, it lost 250,000 subscribers—10 percent of its readership.”

@th3j35t3r that band is one of my all time favorites , unfortunately I never saw them live .
Good morning, CoSo!
Many men my age (and very likely women too) were raised to think that bullying was strength; that using mockery, intimidation, or force to control other people constituted leadership and that, indeed, the whole point of leadership was subjugating other people to your will so that they could serve your needs.
Many (I hope) grew out of this viewpoint; but many others evidently still use it as the backbone of their entire philosophy.
@IslandNewsService good morning!! Starting the day with good news , there are allegations of sexual misconduct by Trump’s pick for Secretary of Defense.
Some of Substack’s Biggest Newsletters Rely on AI Writing Tools
A new analysis of Substack’s top newsletters estimated that around 10 percent publish AI-generated or AI-assisted content.

There's an important difference between AI-assisted and AI-generated.

Why this doesn’t surprise me? He is like his future boss..
“ President-elect Donald Trump’s transition team was in the middle of announcing new Cabinet picks this week when they were informed of a sexual assault allegation about one of his previous selections, Pete Hegseth, stunning several members of Trump’s team who have since raised questions about the viability of his nomination, according to two people close to the situation.”

“ German Chancellor Olaf Scholz and President Vladimir V. Putin of Russia spoke by phone for an hour on Friday, the first discussion between Mr. Putin and a sitting leader of a large Western country since late 2022.
German authorities said the call centered on prospects for ending the war in Ukraine.”

“ The Kremlin-controlled state media channel Russia 1 ran explicit photos of Melania Trump during a segment last week in the wake of her husband's U.S. election victory.”
“ Beside him, Skabeeva can be seen visibly trying to suppress laughter.”
The pictures of nudes were to congratulate Trump for winning the presidency.

@TrueBloodNet @carmen good!!! Mike Johnson wants to bury the investigation, this is the only way to get it out to the public.
@Museek @yogapaddlerun be open with them, they are in a cult and they believe crazy things, it is better if you make your position clear since the beginning.
The trifecta in Washington offers a tantalizing political opportunity for Republicans, opening up a universe of political and policy priorities — from tax cuts to mass deportations to the gutting of the regulatory and federal bureaucracy, along with Trump’s vows to seek vengeance and prosecution of his perceived enemies and pardon those who attacked the Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021.
@LnzyHou @CinnamonGirlE back pain is legit the worst. Facing the same thing lately with lower back pain and sciatica in the left leg (again) thankfully the first round of PT gave me a good number of stretches to do that have helped extravagantly
Never Trump
