My pal Danielle Koenig shared that her father Walter Koenig passed away last night at age 90. A performer whose kindness and warmth shone through the screen. He will be well remembered.

starting to wonder if a key tool for warding off an ascendant right-wing movement might be runoff elections where the tone is approximately “deadass?” like, if you have one of those in December 2016, Trump probably never becomes president (hell, that’s how Ossoff got elected to the Senate)

I really encourage people to visit Bahia and Northeast Brazil. Incredible people there who may once again just stave off the authoritarian tendencies of the South.

if you watch the clip from this week of the now-former press secretary on hannity you can see that the administration did in fact still televise an execution

Seeing both anti-mocking the fake flying car and anti-mocking the press secretary for lying about being a lawyer takes on my feed. Bluesky is thriving.

They took Ilhan’s PASSPORT?! Um

Pat Thompson@pattho.bsky.social

DHS investigators not only took Ilhan’s cell phone, they took her computers, notebooks and her passport! These seem like important details. (You can tell who doesn’t read the full Wall Street Journal article: me.)

The more I think about Gruber raving about how *nice* people are on X the more embarrassing it is. You’re an apolitical white dude who venerates the tech industry. Of course they’re nice to you!

What a strange story. California woman finds a man, allegedly drunk, sleeping on her lawn early in the morning & sends her dad out to move him. The man wakes up & allegedly assaults the (elderly) dad, who shoots him Turns out the man is off-duty ICE agent David Gonzalez abc7.com/story/off-du...

Trump to Italian-Americans: “You should be very proud of what's taking place for you because you were a very discriminated group, but you never complained about it.”

Disappointing. My longtime paid subscription to Casey’s newsletter is up next month. I may need to dump it if he’s just going to be bringing the conversation on X there.

Casey Newton says he simply HAS to return to using a right wing propaganda website owned by an overt white supremacist, because that's where the AI bros are there was simply no way to effectively cover the industry without submerging himself in sewage, we are told

Ossoff: "If John Lewis were marching today from Selma to Montgomery, Mike Collins would be grabbing a billy club"

This is craaaaaaaaazy

Guillfoyle was pretty clearly trading on her connection with Trump to solicit payments in order to help a Republican donor get the IRS to quash a tax dispute. Massively corrupt! We used to take this sort of shit seriously!

Oh no, he’s lost the “Maoist Communist Union”

Some of the anti-Mamdani signs cropping up here. Several protesters I've spoken to see firing NYPD Commissioner Jessica Tisch as a key step for Mamdani to take to get back in their good graces.

Another of San Francisco’s *wacky characters* gone. Now everyone is building AI companies and drinking $8 matcha lattes instead of kidnapping heiresses and robbing banks smdh.

William “Bill” Harris, one of the men who kidnapped newspaper heiress Patty Hearst from her Berkeley apartment in 1974 as a member of the Symbionese Liberation Army, has died in San Francisco.
