The only meeting Hakeem Jeffries should be having with Jared Kushner is to tell him he’ll be subpoenaed by the House for a corruption investigation on day one of Democratic control of the House. This is just pathetic stuff from the House Dem leader. www.nytimes.com/2026/08/23/u...

The ability to remove your post when a hostile account quote-tweets you is a great feature of Bluesky. To do it, go to their quote-tweet of you, click on the three dots in the bottom right, then click “detach quote.” It shows up as “removed by author.”

@gildaswise.com Do you plan to expand @deck.blue search functionality to include the boolean operators (AND, OR) and minimum engagement (require a min # replies, likes, bookmarks etc)? This was tweetdeck's best feature to source engaging +trending conversations on very specific topics. Please!

Vaccines are truly one of the most incredible things in all of human history. We founds ways to literally defeat communicable deadly diseases at almost no cost and at no harm to ourselves. And someone who had literal brain worms is working to undermine that and get people killed.

@pfrazee.com when will @bsky.app offer enhanced search logic so 'keyword' search can be further filtered by minimum likes or replies? I'm not interested in every post containing keyword, but would like to see higher engagement posts. I'm sure there's search logic enhancement as well.

Since Michigan doesn’t release a two-deep, New Mexico has gone with Tom Hanks characters on offense, Tom Cruise characters on defense, and Leonardo DiCaprio characters for special teams.

One rearranging-deck-chairs activity that I will continue to self-soothe with is to constantly tinker with my 25-for-25 movies list, as The Big Picture podcast slowly rolls theirs out. Rules and link to a leftovers list in there.

letterboxd.com25 for 2025The Big Picture podcast is doing a list of 25 movies for the first 25 years of this century, so this is mine. The rules are: only one movie per director, must have debuted post Jan 1 2000. In no parti...

@headandtheheart.bsky.social Unbelievable #THATH show last night in Dallas at #SouthSideBallroom. New Aperture songs are great. Arrow, Beg Steal Borrow, Cop Car, Setting Sun. Too many great songs to choose one favorite. Missed Connection was electric. Go see them! Here's Honeybee.

@ember-energy.org our mission is to democratize energy data. Open data also means not gatekeeping it behind complex data files or technical barriers. This is why we published our original Electricity Data Explorer in 2022. Now, we finally have a new version 🎉 More accessible, more powerful!

Now is the time for reps like AOC. Don't let the status quo Democratic echo chamber confuse you. The people fed up with Trump and this Republican senate WILL vote left of center if that's what's available. You'll just keep sliding right otherwise. Serve people, not corporations.

Predicted tariff impact on US Ecommerce Holidays: 6/16 | Father's Day | Costs up on inventory 7/4 | Fireworks $$$ if at all. Trump take BlackCats 8/1 | Back to school | No backpack for you 10/31 | Halloween | Know how to sew? 11/28 | Black Fri Cyber Mon | n/a 12/25 | Xmas | No dolls, no balls

Time is of the essence here. Q3 pretty much toast. Q4 too, if not resolved by 6/15. China factory growth dropping. Unavoidable cost/time components like ocean freight, port/customs time and processing into US warehouse 40-50 days. Mfg Lead times 30-60 days (maybe shorter if idle).

Shot and Chaser ... only banana republics allows key political figures to openly grift and profit blatantly from inside dealing via their public service roles.

I see constant posts and reposts here about what Bill Ackman said or what Bill Ackman posted. Who fucking cares?!?! Stop giving this narcissist a platform and larger audience folks. Repost this, not Ackman’s drivel.

@delong.social Can you respond to this? Is Tanvi Ratna legitimate or delusional?

Nina Zeelen@ninazeelen.bsky.social

Tanvi Ratna: "Tariffs now become negotiating chips in a wider, grander bargain. Countries will soon receive invitations to bilateral talks, where tariff relief hinges on concessions—economic, geopolitical, or both. Cooperation is rewarded, resistance penalized."
