Loyal Tooter aka Worldly 👻 Boo-OOO-ooter 🎃 ⚰️

Hi, BS! It’s my birthday and I want more followers (I’m shallow) so I’m doing the introduction thing: I’m 55 today, so 💯Gen X. Used to call myself an actor but it turns out I just liked hanging out with theater people. Now I do PR for architects. I ran for Congress once.

Literally all of these are very easy to pronounce, with the possible exception of Qatar.

Sooooo close to getting the point

At home it was Pong, but even before that I believe it was Sea Wolf, discovered at an arcade among the many pinball machines while on a family vacation in Maine.

​Instead, lifting sanctions just lets Russia sell fuel without a discount, handing them more money to murder Ukrainians, all while everyday Americans gain nothing.

Vance: “Criticism of desanctioning Russia is that Russians will now be able to sell their diesel fuel. That’s absurd, they’ve always been able to sell it. They’re just selling it at a massive discount to China. Meanwhile, our farmers and consumers have suffered.” The whole point of sanctions is to

But this is not about cows, horses or even white-on-white violence (I blame their culture🤷). This month marks the 500th anniversary of America's oldest non-indigenous tradition: Resisting white supremacy. Happy anniversary!

Trump: "Zelenskyy is not helping matters much. I think he doesn't want to stop the war." FACT CHECK: Ukraine and Zelenskyy personally agreed to an unconditional ceasefire proposed by Trump in March 2025. Russia did not.

Guess what: Carville doesn’t get to decide. WE DO.

I used to love four-player SNES back in the day—NBA Jams, SuperBomberMan—but that was with friends all in a room together. Playing online against strangers is not for me. Give me a world to explore alone.

If we tax Elon Musk and his fellow billionaires appropriately, every child in America can have healthcare, education, and a well funded social safety net instead of some racist billionaire’s pathetic pr stunt

Not just trans people, but decent human beings who love trans people Don't have to be trans yourself to be fucking disgusted by Dems who try to throw them under the bus Fuck any Democrat without a functioning moral compass or the courage to fight for the people and be a true leader

I have always stood up to him and that will never change. The pedophile protector will never silence me.

I like the wood. More wood grain-finished electronics!

Former food stamps recipient James Donald Bowman—who is now trying to destroy the system which kept him from starving—is the perfect person to lecture others on gratitude

My answer to the @MuckRack Daily trivia question: Summer heat causes the metal to expand, also causes the tower to tilt just a little bit.

Srsly, if not for Miller's Crossing and No Country for Old Men I'd have to say the Coens peaked with Raising Arizona, the movie is that fucking good. Same with Cage: I think one could argue he outdid himself with Adaptation but his pertformance as H.I. McDonough is, for me, peak Nic Cage.

The list of legislators who very clearly do NOT understand the law is long and getting longer. It's mostly GOP reps, but not exclusively GOP, and not exclusively reps. (Tuberville is the best Senate example.)

BRETT KAVANAUGH: "Can you explain exactly how the consent would work?" Just saying... if *I* were Brett Kavanaugh, *I* WOULDN'T ASK A QUESTION SHOWING THAT I WAS CONFUSED HOW CONSENT WORKS! But maybe that's just me.

My answer to the @MuckRack Daily trivia question: Don Draper, obvs

A Ken Paxton campaign email crossed my desk, sent to a work email account. ("Piker evil! Talarico is his willing thrall!") I tried to unsubscribe from the list, but this shady mfer included a broken f-ing link.

Eat Pray Love for Tax Purposes

When he said he doesn’t like how Ken Paxton dresses i thought “somehow this is projection like all his accusations and insults” and here we are

This is what you don’t get. When you make excuses for anti-trans democrats, YOU ARE HELPING REPUBLICANS GET ELECTED.

This is the correct take. I know they held up "Mass Deportation Now" signs at the '24 GOP convention, but I don't recall "Summary Executions Now" signs.* *Tho obvs plenty of Magats are fine with it

My answer to the @MuckRack Daily trivia question: I had to look it up, and I must say I would never in a million years have guessed Hillary Clinton.

My answer to the @MuckRack Daily trivia question: Sputnik!

It’s very simple and it’s been said over and over but I guess it needs saying continuously: if you deem one group too small to have equal rights you are enabling fascism, not fighting it. The people saying Dems are GREAT on trans rights are not paying attention and/or saying stuff like this.

@mattcohen.bsky.social it's college radio day!

My shoutout goes to my roommate at Tulane, who played whatever she wanted on WTUL, and also to KSCL at Centenary College in Shreveport, which got me hooked in high school. Wayyyy left of the dial!

Zionists who support the recent actions of the State of Israel, on the one hand, and Jews, on the other hand, are not the same thing.

Someone on reddit said he was built like an improper fraction 💀

up it, without a paddle

Amazing thread, Schmitt embarrasses himself and the GOP. I'm no big fan of Klobuchar but she absolutely hammers Schmitt here and all he can do is pitch a fit and shout.

“Don’t take your eyes off of him” is something u say about a guy who is going to try to steal your wallet or put something in your drink lol

It’s like when I hear people rhapsodizing over Tim Russert and I remember Cheney selling aluminum tubes bullshit on Russert’s Meet the Press.

Kai, KAI The Washington Post has been decimated by its oligarch owner who forces editorial decisions based on the whims of fascists Do NOT let their garbage content lead you around by the nose You do not have to opine about their clickbait shite Rise above Report on the markets, dude

The art may or may not be AI slop, but somehow it hits

Also the deathtrap cliffhanger from every two-parter of the original Batman TV series

So weird. - At top a flyover added -- a B2 bomber, maybe? - The stars are grey? or maybe taupe? - And I'm pretty sure "Only Trump" (like "only Nixon could go to China," get it?) is in the Washington Post banner font. A pastiche of stolen honor, valor. (Plus the weird Natalie's face thing)
