It's a heist, wrapped in a coup, disguised as a political party.

@ProjectFearlessness

I think this says more about the ridiculous valuations given some companies by Wall Street than it does about the underlying technology.

If half a trillion dollars of value can disappear in one day, was it ever there?

@br00t4c

Wow, is that guy still pretending he’s under 50?

Yikes!

@josephinelee

"Republicans literally passed a law to make sure your medical debt bankrupts you" seems like a viable campaign idea.

@GottaLaff

A fan of Elon Musk and Alex Jones.

Of course.

@Nonilex

Now is when we find out if George has any integrity. He could refuse to apologize for the truth.

Pro tip: he'll take the money because he has no integrity

@br00t4c

Imagine believing there are "norms" in American politics in 2024.

This is why Democrats lose. They can't seem to understand that the rules they think are in force were tossed in the trash last century.They think they're playing chess but their opponents are playing Thermonuclear War.

@persagen

Bernie Taupin is a genius.

That is all.

Here's the thing to remember about Donald Trump. He's stupid as fuck.

This is going to be bad. But the sheer stupidity and incompetence of these idiots will help lessen the impact of their term.

@WarnerCrocker

The article saves the best for last: "a phone call to a number associated with the parade went unanswered yesterday and the parade’s Facebook page had been taken down at last check."

Looks like sunshine is still the best disinfectant.

New from @JuliusGoat

"So maybe "the center" isn't a position. Maybe it's an alignment, one that sees unity as a constant and never-changing agreement with supremacists, a certification that supremacists and only supremacists are part of "us," and any attempt to make common cause with unwanted groups that supremacists consider to be their enemies represents polarization and disunity, in a way that supremacist violence itself never will."

You really owe it to yourself to read The Reframe by @JuliusGoat. Today's column is about what it means to be weird.

"Regular decent people, meanwhile, have noticed that an exclusive license on normalcy is some real weirdo shit to demand and sneering about the existence of diversity to secure that license and use weirdness as an excuse to punish people is some real weirdo shit to do..."

Subscribe. No seriously, just do it.

You'd think she would provide some evidence since "ALL of the evidence shows" (some stupid shit that she made up.)

Republicans are liars.

AR Moxon is learning a lot by keeping an open mind. This new essay made me laugh, made me mad, and broke my heart.
