My heart is heavy. Walter Koenig, our Ensign Pavel Chekov, passed away early today. Walter and I met on the bridge of the Enterprise in the 1960s, and we stayed friends for nearly six decades. When Brad and I married in 2008, Walter stood beside us as our best man.

Hey Audi

If you’re thinking of buying an Audi, don’t forget that an Audi executive appeared at a Trump rally this weekend to try to boost an American dictatorship. Make your car-buying decision accordingly.

The Pilot episode of GENE RODDENBERRY’s STAR TREK (1965) was rejected by NBC and not seen in full until it’s release on VHS in 1986 (although it was incorporated into the Season 1, 2-part episode "The Menagerie" in 1966). GENE left us 35yrs ago today.

Wow! Make Amy Acton governor. “I am making a promise to Ohioans...that no one in my state will ever, ever be invisible to me."

Trans voter to @aoc.bsky.social: Trans people in America feel like they've been abandoned by the Democratic Party, that we are a losing issue, that it's not worth defending us. What do you say to that? AOC:

After a Russian strike on Kramatorsk rescuers found the body of a killed man under the rubble of a destroyed private house in Kramatorsk. What a horror to be bombed and killed in your own home for a crime of being Ukrainian in your own country. Russia must be stopped.

The allegations in the Jared story have a known true core, which was exposed in the (failed) Tom Barrack prosecution none of you know about. The prosecution was a referral from Mueller, but Barr tried to sabotage it, as he did all other referrals in summer 2019. emptywheel.net/2026/10/23/j...

This is an important point and one way we should use this VF article. Even if the most damning part -- the bank accounts -- is not true, we do know Kushner is a literal agent (financial advisor) to the Saudis and UAE. How the hell is he running negotiations?

5. The instinct that lets you look the other way and/or encourage putting Kushner in charge of Middle East negotiations is the same that puts Betancourt in the middle of the theft of Venezuelan oil. www.propublica.org/article/trum...

When you abandon a dog because it is no longer useful, you are showing your child exactly how to treat you when you grow old. Loyalty deserves loyalty. Compassion deserves compassion. Never abandon the ones who gave you unconditional love. ❤️

Amy Acton is running against former GOP presidential contender Vivek Ramaswamy for governor of Ohio. She knew when she decided to run that the attack ads were inevitable. But what happened yesterday was beyond the pale. Link in comments.

Today’s night attack on St. Petersburg by Ukrainian Defense Forces was one of the most successful. It damaged an oil port, oil depot, the Ship Fairway bridge, a VK data center, and an Ozon warehouse.

🚨Holy crap! Ken Paxton partied on New Year’s Eve 2024 in Dubai with his girlfriend and two U.S. fugitives (Anosh Ahmed and Sameer Suhail) charged in healthcare fraud/embezzlement schemes. Ahmed, a major donor, gave about $190,000 to Paxton’s campaign — including after his indictment.

Russia is experiencing a diesel shortage. Farmers' crops in Russia are rotting in the fields because diesel costs 4x more than last year if they can even find it. Now ask yourself the question why would Vladimir Putin screw over his own farmers to send diesel to help Americans?
