@kims lolol I have never seen this because I am an unfrozen caveman.

@MisuseCase @bmacDonald94 I’m not looking for empty, untimely apologies. Heaping execrations on them feels like the right move rn.

Remember, kids:
- Hillary Clinton was the warmongering candidate vs. Trump the peacenik
- Joe Biden & Kamala Harris were the pro-genocide candidates & Trump could only be better

@jalefkowit Keaton was brilliant, which makes it extra painful that “The General” has a Confede^Wtraitor protagonist.

@indubitablyodin Evergreen sabotage advice:

@kims Physical go bags & agreed-upon plan on when/where to rendezvous if you to have leave separately in a big hurry.

@kims @BobDevney πλήκτης has the sense of brawler, but not quite the same as “bully.” The adjective θρασύς comes closer as it connotes insolence or arrogance. If you want fancy, θραςύδειλος isn’t bad, although a coinage from Aristophanes isn’t the kind of thing you’d use in normal prose.

TLDR: I’d probably go with “thrasocracy.”

@dangillmor @GottaLaff Even Paul Krugman is on the ‘stack.

Nothing matters. https://www.nytimes.com/2025/01/21/technology/trump-ross-ulbricht-silk-road.html

Hoping I live long enough to see a cult of personality where the personality isn’t the shittiest person in human history.

@jalefkowit I’m so old I remember this sort of goofy sensationalism being *parodied* in 1974.

Friend, let me take you back to the glorious days of the Nixon Administration.

Kash Patel is a deranged, amoral piece of shit. The FBI certainly has a checkered history—J. Edgar Hoover was a self-righteous monster of the first order—but Patel’s lawless zealotry would bring the Bureau to a dangerous new low. He is supremely unfit for any position of public trust, lest alone directing the nation’s largest criminal investigative agency (and sole domestic intelligence agency).

@lawfare The new Congress or the current one? On a quick skim, I did not see this addressed.

@ninawillburger Roman glasswork is astonishing. Here are a few exquisite items on display at the Romano-Germanic Museum in Köln.

@anagnostes @briankrebs I was thinking of citing Emacs, so now I have to.

@grammargirl I am firmly in Camp Chicago. If the name isn’t one like Jesus or Moses, tack on that additional sibilant.

@HopelessDemigod @SteveBellovin Sort of depends on the clock, no?

Many a truth is spoken in jest.

@dgar @spaf It’s like the old joke about the US immigration official who asks a new arrival, “Do you support the overthrow of the United States government by force or violence?” After pausing a moment to think, the new arrival answers, “Violence.”

@thomasfuchs Actually, Twitter sometimes gives you boobs *and* a Nazi.
