The interview w/ the CA reporter I watched today was BRUTAL

Mad because there's follow up questions to a very important issue (redistricting)? Nope

A post from Donald Trump on Oct 08, 2025, 6:51 PM "I am very proud to announce that Israel and Hamas have both signed off on the first Phase of our Peace Plan. This means that ALL of the Hostages will be released very soon, and Israel will withdraw their Troops to an agreed upon line as the first steps toward a Strong, Durable, and Everlasting Peace. All Parties will be treated fairly! This is a GREAT Day for the Arab and Muslim World, Israel, all surrounding Nations, and the United States of America, and we thank the mediators from Qatar, Egypt, and Turkey, who worked with us to make this Historic and Unprecedented Event happen. BLESSED ARE THE PEACEMAKERS! DONALD J. TRUMP PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA"

Ok! We have the full statement from Trump. It says explicitly that Israel and Hamas have signed off only "on the first Phase of our Peace Plan." Which means all hostages will be released and Israel withdraws troops. This is VERY preliminary and only the first step.

Yeah, I know people are gullible. But I really don't think they believe that MLK, Jr., is turning heel at a WWE event.

Seriously, I actually saw that and it was really disturbing

I went through a phase in the 2010s where I got REALLY into Underoath & The Devil Wears Prada. I enjoy metalcore/post-hardcore music a lot. Thursday's "Full Collapse" is probably one of my favorite albums ever.

I got Lost in the Sound of Separation from the STL library in 2010 and fell in love.

I've always thought that Underoath's "Lost in the Sound of Separation" was appropriate background music for the 2008 financial collapse.

It still holds up today as the soundtrack for the present day, imho

Also, this model only works for national journalists who have an large, existing audience. The idea someone who gets laid off from, say, the Des Moines Register can use Substack to write about municipal politics and make a living? No way.

That was my life in 2009 and 2011-2012. It doesn't work.

Pritzker is also furious: “Should National Governors Association leadership choose to remain silent, Illinois will have no choice but to withdraw from the organization.”

I mean, i saw bad bunny do a canadian destroyer on john morrison and it was pretty radical

It's going to be a Spanslide isn't it

Bi-State head sees bus opportunity after demise of MetroLink Green Line in St. Louis Bi-State Development Agency head Taulby Roach explains why the MetroLink Green Line plan faltered and how the region’s mass transit could change in the future.

After St. Louis dropped plans for the MetroLink Green Line, Bi-State’s Taulby Roach tells @stlpublicradio.bsky.social that bus rapid transit could be a cheaper alternative — about half the cost.

The system would run frequent, dedicated buses along Jefferson Avenue.

Tricia, you might to want pass that message along to your employees who have openly admitted they are using racial profiling to go after people in Chicago (thanks to @chipmitchell1.bsky.social):

Meanwhile in Missouri, you can buy three ounces of weed ... Go up to a cop ... Say "HEY LOOK AT ME! I HAVE THREE OUNCES OF WEED!" And guess what will happen to you?

Absolutely nothing.

that Millennial either was in outer space on 9/11 or is lying

I'm too much of a showboat not to share my favorite track in a quoteskeet instead

And I'm too much of a wrestling fan to not make an obvious pick:

I watched a YouTube video that described I Have No Mouth, But I Must Scream and it scared the ever living crap out of me

Wait, are people SERIOUSLY saying that getting rid of HIGH POWERED CLIPPY SERVICES is the same as GENOCIDE or EUGENICS?!

Sorry of the all caps but as a former high school debater I am most concerned about how bad the arguments are now

literally the only thing it's good for is helping me organize and execute a reclamation project for a novel i wrote when i was 19 (not spitting out text for it, just making revision suggestions)

Millennials have finally reached a milestone: we finally get to complain about the younger generation being a bunch of lazy loafers. We did it Joe!

first of all facebook, i'm happily married

but second of all, this is the type of ai that needs to be shot into the f'ing sun

also, can we have myspace back

Bezos looked like this in 1999

I've never looked at "Take Me Home" by Phil Collins the same after this scene

I haven't listened to all of "Life of a Show Girl" yet, but I do like "Fate of Ophelia."

This Charli XCX diss track is just the worst, her worst since Reputation

YouTube video by Charli xcx Charli xcx - Sympathy is a knife (Live on SNL)

My only contribution to the t-swift discourse is if "Actually Romantic" is a response to Charli XCX's "Sympathy is a Knife," then good lord Taylor is the most thinned skinned lady in pop music

"Sympathy" (the best song off brat, imho) is not a diss of Taylor! It's about Charli's insecurity!!!

Cori Bush says she’s running for Congress again because St. Louis needs a fighter Cori Bush says she expects a contentious rematch for Congress with incumbent Wesley Bell.

So why is @coribush.bsky.social running again in 2026?

She told @stlpublicradio.bsky.social that St. Louis, and by extension, want fighters who will advocate for marginalized people and advocate against the Trump administration.

Listen to our interview here:

Finally, my billion-dollar idea can come to fruition:

That is damn awful. When I lost my newspaper job in 2008, Typepad offered me a blog for free ... and I think they said forever. I guess 'forever' was 2025.

A lot of my work from 2008 to 2010 is now lost to digital rot. Good news is my paper clips from the early to mid-2000s are still in my closet!
