I also went to high school with Jeffrey Epstein. I wonder if I'm the only person to have gone to school with JE and served on a faculty with RFK jr.

I used to be proud as a faculty member at Pace University to share that status with RFK jr, who taught in Pace's Law School while I taught in the school of Arts and Sciences. Now you'll need to waterboard me to get me to volunteer that connection.

Only part of his brain? I think it got the whole thing.

But next time around, they'll be drawn to some other simpleminded fascist GOPer, rather than a "socialist."

"illegal aliens and criminals" = citizens who probably didn't vote for me.

I guess we have a number now for the hardest of hard-core MAGA nuts. 26%, good to know, will support MAGA no matter how insane or contrafactual it gets.

Took yuz long enough. Now reconsider every value you've ever held dear, because most of them are as fucked as your previous worship of Trump/Trump's supporters.

He will change course just before the 2026 election, dropping tariffs just in time to draw back those idiots always willing to give him the benefit of the doubt, and then reinstalling the tariffs after the election (WHO KNEW?).

I suggest learning how to spell "Macron" first.

Better find some way to make that legally binding. Nothing they like better than making agreements they later ignore.

Keith Olbermann: How Can MSNBC Save Itself After Trump’s Win? First Step: Fire Mika and Joe Keith Olbermann, a former top MSNBC anchor, has surprising suggestions for the liberal cable channel's way forward during the next Trump term.

Interesting read with helpful advice for the network. Something has to change with Morning Joe, especially after their shameful ring-kissing visit. Now more than ever, the media must stand for democracy, not cower before a wannabe authoritarian

No, they're gonna blame anything negative on Biden, and their supporters are gonna believe it.

I'm still waiting patiently for her to take responsibility for working for W. and others who appointed rightwing SC justices, supported racist policies, and strengthened the GOP for decades.

In their Oval Office meeting, could President Biden assassinate Trump and get away with murder by claiming it was an official act as POTUS?

Pretty dumb to think Democrats in the 1980s opposed markets,competition, and innovation. I'd say "self-serving racist dumb," in fact, that led inevitably to Trump.

Do they serve any useful purpose, then? What would happen if Bluesky just eliminated them altogether? Anything remotely negative? Also, why not "I ignore DMs unless I know you" instead of "No DMs"? I can imagine a time when someone I know might want to contact me but not want to post in public.

Just curious--I've never DMed anyone, here or on the awful place, but I'm wondering about the ubiquitous "NO DMs, please" at the end of nearly eveyone's profile. How come? (And, also, should DMs just be eliminated altogether, if we all reject the concept of DMing so firmly?)
