What even was the point of anything Trump did or said throughout the last year?
@kiva.org Why are so many people from Nicaragua still (after 10 years) repaying for their loans they needed for housing while about half of my US loans defaulting with large amounts left to pay.
Something is a bit off here.
A very old Soviet joke, from an especially dark time:
Foxes are fleeing the USSR in droves.
Q: Why are you running away?
Fox: The Soviets passed a new law that they’re going to arrest all camels.
Q: But you’re foxes!
Fox: Yeah, why don’t *you* try proving to the NKVD that you’re not a camel.
There's actually a Nazi version of this joke:
Rabbits from Germany are trying to cross the boder to the Netherlands.
- Why, asks the customs officer
- The Gestapo is persecuting all giraffes as enemies of the state.
- But you are rabbits.
- You tell the Gestapo
If Oct. 7 had never happened, Trump would right now be pulling funding from Columbia and Harvard because of DEI policies or admissions requirements or what research they were doing or all of the above. The right hates universities and that’s it.
So... I am officially a sugar mommy 😳
By the most wholesome thing I have seen in a while.
International Women's Day and all that or the Holiday of Spring, March 8 is today. And this is so much better than flowers.
Thank you, heroes, made my day. Love you.

Nach Wahlwerbung für AfD: Elon Musk stellt neuen Sprung vor
“All donations that originate from abroad, no matter who is the final donor, should be banned. Only UK citizens should be allowed to donate to British political organisations. This would, by necessity mean no donations from private companies; PLCs, LTDs, whatever.”
So a reminder:
It’s not ‘liberals’ saying Hegseth abuses women. It’s his mom.
It’s not ‘liberals’ comparing Trump to Hitler. It’s his vice-president.
It’s not ‘liberals’ calling Musk a liar and a racist. It’s his own child.
For the record.
I can’t tell you how different it is on X now after so many people have left. I have always followed mostly right-wing accounts because I cover them, and they are running out of people to pick fights with. So they’re just mostly fighting with each other.
KEEP AN EYE ON GEORGIA in the following hours as the regime will want to clean the protest for Ivanishvili and his puppets to enter the Parliament in violation of the Constitution (not only were the elections rigged, but there’s a pending constitutional case).

Numerous times this week, I’ve learned of news breaking on Bluesky before Twitter. In the past, it’s only ever been Twitter. Bodes well for the future of this site.
Small note: I wish there was a way to segment notifications (people I follow, mentions, etc).

Behold! Ukrainian Nationalism 🫴
I am extremely tired of this treatment. It's a Ukrainian game, about Ukraine, made by Ukrainians.
You won't see people saying "Japanese nationalism peeking through" when they see a kimono and a rising sun imagery in a Japanese game. Absurd. And offensive.
The problem with appeasement is you eventually run out of other people’s countries.
Yes. It’s because they invaded a peaceful neighbor and began killing, raping and destroying. How is this hard?
1/ I’ve become an unofficial evangelist for Bluesky. (I don’t work here.)
As a former dir of product mgmt @Twitter, I’m impressed w/ the innovative and courageous choices Bluesky has made.
They’ve come up with a better way to do social media.
Some have asked me how I explain this outcome.
A🧵>>>
It was a 49% to 48% election.
Fascism won by a hair.
And it took Russian and MAGA bomb threats, a hoax regarding battleground-state police raids, an illegal Musk-funded lottery, $600M given to Trump by just 15 people, Netanyahu meddling in our politics, and Democrats staying home for it to happen.
Fireworks likely caused the death of a baby red panda at Edinburgh Zoo after she became so stressed that she choked on her own vomit, experts from the Royal Zoological Society of Scotland have said.

#Warntag. Den möchte ich dazu benutzen, um vor der NSDAP 2.0, auch unter der Bezeichnung AfD bekannt, zu warnen.
