I guess occupying cities, kidnapping children, executing people in the streets, and starting unprovoked wars is bad for job creation and the economy?

Markwayne Mullin is a failed cage fighter who inherited his dadβs plumbing business, which makes him one of Trumpβs most qualified appointees.
They knew their war powers resolution would fail, and now Democrats can go pretend that they just *have to* fund a pointless, illegal, and disastrous war

Josh Gottheimer is the worst Democrat in Congress, especially given his district. I will work for virtually anybody who challenges him in a primary.
Trump has invaded Venezuela and launched a war on Iran since βwinningβ the FIFA Peace Prize.
It would be an irrelevant farce, but the corrupt organization is extracting billions of dollars from a dozen American cities this summer.
The independent media was fun while it lasted
It's now three months since I underwent my sixth open-heart surgery.
I spent two years worried about dying; now, living is the challenge.
I'm back at work, but my brain is foggy, anxiety is crippling, and the world is bleak. Cherish your health and time.

I love Bluesky because I can check it after unambiguously good news and learn the million ways why it actually portends doom
James Van der Beek, one of the most iconic TV actors of his generation, had to sell the mementos from his career just to pay for his cancer treatment.
His death is a tragedy and a shameful indictment of our broken, cruel "healthcare" system.
I took down Andrew Cuomo, now I'm running for City Council to take on the cost of living crisis.
Week keeps getting worse for billionaires connected to sex trafficking in Florida
Bad Bunny put on the splashiest stage show since Charlie Kirkβs grand finale in Utah
Sister Mary Ellen Burns of Apostle Immigrant Services in New Haven agreed that ICE is βrotten to the coreβ and questioned whether βbargaining with the devilβ was the right course of action. βDo we want to stand on principle and then let the Republicans pass a bill with no changes?β Burns said. βBecause they're not going to vote to abolish ICE.β βWe need an exorcism of our government, and I donβt know what position is best,β Burns said.
Shout out to the nun who told Rep. Rosa DeLauro to vote to abolish ICE because "we need an exorcism of our government." www.ctpublic.org/news/2026-02...
The one foreigner I wouldn't mind seeing kidnapped by ICE
Theyβre obviously lying and Trump is just an addled old racist, but best case scenario, the White House employs staffers who stay up late night reposting blatantly bigoted internet trash
Oh god no, it was a bleak joke, sorry for any confusion
Joss Whedon directing a doc about Barron Trump for Paramount+, documenting a week with the president's son as he tortures animals and watches drone bombing footage
Addendum: I'm not complaining! I started a newsletter years and years ago and I'm doing okay (it's my side thing). But growth has definitely stagnated and while that is probably somewhat of a reflection on my abilities, the massive influx of Substacks no doubt plays a big role.
It's also an incredibly saturated space because so many laid off journalists are trying to start paid newsletters to make rent. If you're not a brand name or subsidized by a VC or platform, real growth is almost impossible. I know from experience!
Jeff Bezos laying off hundreds of journalists days after debuting his $75 million fluff documentary about Melania Trump (directed by a sex pest) is craven but instructive: billionaires are not saviors and should not exist.
A poster that calls Bret Stephens a βgenocide supporter,β βwar monger,β and βcomplete disgraceβ
The resistance is sweeping the Upper East Side
Back to work at @moreperfectunion.bsky.social today, just over two months after undergoing my sixth (!) open-heart surgery.
I live to make content.
So hit me with any tips or ideas you have about corrupt politicians, bad corporations, abusive bosses, or good policy.

Republicans gerrymandered Texas based on the assumption that they had permanently won over Hispanic voters.
Then they sent the secret police to harass Hispanic voters, which based on tonight is looking like a bad electoral strategy.

I simply cannot believe how many emails Jeffrey Epstein and his rich pedo friends sent one another. Who emails that much??
The most millennial thing about me is that I have related to The Format songs whenever theyβve been released
I canβt believe Iβm listening to a new The Format album a full two decades since I downloaded the last one.
