Mister November

-Zero Congressional consultation or approval.
-Zero preparation of public for need/consequences of war.
-Zero evidence of thought about "OK, what might the other side do?" Next month. Next year.
-Zero mention of anti-nuke agreement Trump voided, or Trump claim last year that nukes "obliterated."

Zohran, the wunderkind.

That's some absolutely laughable bullshit right there. As if a message from the ADAG to "hold for clearance" on the most prominent politically-sensitive prosecution brought by Trump's DOJ (to that date) was written in hieroglyphics.

Monstrous and reckless disregard for the life of this poor man. Criminal charges need to be filed by local authorities.

And a good chance it actually works.

Of course it's the ape people spreading the racist White House "ape" videos.

Paul Lukas has outdone himself today, and I've been reading him since 1994. No piece could be more Lukasian. There's no paywall on it and it's just delightful.

What?!? Was Kirk Cameron not available?

Are you suggesting that Twitter in 2026 is a less "hostile and unserious space" than BS? Wild. Sure, there's some fringe assholes here, but they pale in comparison to the firehose of toxic Nazi/AI bullshit that is ceaselessly pushed on Twitter, which is precisely what led to our collective exodus.

I don't know what incident you're referring to here, but you may want to dial back the BS. The service may not be growing in significant numbers, but that chart hardly shows it "constantly hemorrhaging users." In fact, it looks like the user base has been more or less stable for quite some time.

The FBI Director, everyone. You paid for it.

Attempting to fire the pilot of the plane you are on mid-flight requires a real next-level brain. Spectacular.

It's such low-hanging fruit if wealthy lib donors wanted to make a real impact. Re-invest in local journalism w/ a smart, non-paywalled social media strategy. Shitty 1-person personal social media accts & neighborhood Facebook groups are masquerading as the primary "news" source all over the place
