My exit interview from Time Inc. was the day the AOL takeover broke.
Lots of suited execs looking like they'd been hit with baseball bats: "What do MEAN the 'You've got mail' guy bought US ?!?!?"
So this pithy recount of Warner history by @profgalloway.com is painfully, sadly familiar. Read it.
"...and when you're a crypto bro, they let you do it. You can do anything..."
The antidote to our rapidly disintegrating civilization, Crufts.
SCOOP — Body camera footage obtained as a result of my lawsuit against the DC Metropolitan PD confirms DOGE and the Trump administration openly admitted they were entering private property when they raided the building on March 17, 2025. That didn't stop MPD from breaking down the doors.
My report:
Love a round door.
Not silo, a bunker. Maybe just hollow out the root and live in that giant peach style.
You can stop yelling at me. Your bad faith isn't helpful. I'm not expecting the rest of the world to clean up maga's shit. I know that's on us, and we're doing the best we can.
I live in a rogue state that's bullying the planet. I'm wondering what the consequences for that will be. I'm curious.
From an international perspective, America is a rogue state now, right? America doesn't respect international law, doesn't honor treaties, is murdering civilians all over the world without care or consequence.
At what point does the rest of the world say ENOUGH?
Wtf we're lifting sanctions on Russia and buying their oil?
That will actively hurt us and Ukraine and help Putin. This administration is bananas.
I'm sick and fucking tired of it being so fashionable to slag off on Democrats.
We've been the only party to substantively improve conditions in this country in 100 years.
Gas went up another twenty cents overnight. Thats fifty cents in the last week. Nice middle east war assholes.
“Defense Secretary” just isn’t macho enough.
Deplorable
The Millennial Generation's defining politician: JD Vance, shit poster as shithead politician.
😕
Want to point out that a submarine revealing its location to blow up a not particularly significant boat in order to record a snuff film for Secretary of Defense Hegseth is incredibly stupid and barbaric.
I feel like the "was it a war crime" Discourse is distracting from knuckle-dragging-ness.
Twice daily showers. Florida.
“Kristi Noem caused lasting harm to farm worker communities.
Our lawsuit against racist raids is called “UFW v. Noem” for a reason.
That fight continues, even if her time as DHS secretary doesn’t.”
Its always the same bullshit lies.
You know that feeling of emptiness and exhaustion after a creative spurt? A new study has a name for this phenomenon — “creative hangover” — plus some surprising findings.
I do miss FL birds. So many wonderful ones. I used to love to watch the ibises going through the front lawn when I put the dogs out in the morning.
Rickles, yes. I was thinking more along the lines of Triumph the Insult Comic dog. Meaner, you know?
A cruel, insult comic, maybe.
When LinkedIn recommends connecting to the local politician who had your job cut to save the big $35k you earned including benefits - so he could hire a consultant. Makes it worse that he did get elected to higher office.
If Battlestar survives 400 years into the future Shakespeare play style people will NOT believe that Gaius Baltar came before Elon Musk/assorted AI guys were a thing
Larry King radio in his heyday. There was so much good talk radio before right wing ideologues took over the airwaves.
Morning, fam.
Song to start our day.

Delivery workers are of course expendable - more so every day. finance.yahoo.com/news/fedex-r...
Big thanks to @exposedbycmd.bsky.social and Open Secrets for their hard work on this stuff. If the ship eventually sinks, at least we'll know who opened the seacocks.

Not even a question. Both FedEx and UPS are members of ALEC - as is Amazon. www.sourcewatch.org/index.php/AL... ALEC collaborates with the anti-worker, pro-corporate Heritage Fndn.
