Letter from George Bush to Bill Clinton.

Letter from George Bush to Bill Clinton.

Bushโ€™s letter feels like it came from another planet - one where political rivals were still countrymen, not enemies. The ink is only 32 years old, but the sentiment might as well be from a century ago.

Great win by the Lions. However, people need to lay off Manu. He was playing in his first regular season game as a Left Tackle against Trey Hendrickson. He did a decent job, and half the sacks were misses by other players, such as Brock Wright. Give the kid time, heโ€™ll get better.

To all those conservatives freaking out about gender. Remember in 1974 David Bowies sang in his hit song Rebel Rebel, "She's not sure if you're a boy or a girl" Way back then. And no one gave a shit. We lived with it, we moved on. So why, 40 years later do you care now?

What a game last night! The Detroit Lions were impressive all night. They controlled the game, especially time of possession (how many 18-play, 11 minute 98 yard drives have there been in the past?). 7 sacks and a forced fumble by the defense against Lamar Jackson is amazing. Go Lions!

Autism: 1st diagnosed in 1943
Aspergers: 1st diagnosed in 1944.

Tylenol: made available for public consumption in 1960!

By the 1970s, Tylenol was widely recommended for pain relief during pregnancy.

My parents bought two paintings from a local artist who put their work up in local restaurants. In the 1970s, art wasnโ€™t a four letter word. People were willing to help out the arts. But, as the right wing grew stronger, the arts became increasingly the enemy.

Trump donor Larry Ellisonโ€™s Oracle will oversee TikTokโ€™s algorithm.

His media company owns CBS News and is plotting a bid for Warner Bros., which owns CNN.

When billionaires take control of communication platforms, itโ€™s not a win for free speech. Itโ€™s a win for oligarchy.

Was #DavidBowie the anchor being? Is that why everything has gone so spectacularly to hell?

We spoke to @danielnothing.bsky.social about the pain of 2016 and the endless parade of celebrity deaths, starting with the one that shocked us the most.

My friend moved here from Israel in the 1970s. He was sent by his employer but decided to stay. He said he was attracted by the freedom to speak his mind & has lived here ever since. Apparently times have changed thร nks to a egomaniacal #felon #freespeech
