ex- radio guy, 911 guy, now a pastor. Bald, gaining weight, usually need a shave. Jeopardy loser from 1995. Profile pic is me (in hat) in a college production of Bus Stop circa 1981. I feel better than James Brown. TIL I'm a Bluesky Elder.

I’ll be following along with the district court hearing in US v California, where the DOJ is demanding that CA be forced to segregate the ballots of a list of voters the Trump Admin claims are non-citizens. Follow along here at 3pm CT.

If you want to know what's happening in the Israeli election, @timesofisrael.com's liveblog is a good place to be

Israel turnout update: 66.7% as of 6pm (polls are open until 10pm local time, after which the lines close and the polls close after the last voter in line as of 10pm has voted) WILD turnout. For comparison, 66.6% is the highest turnout rate in Federal elections since at least 2002

Way before early voting, when I was child, I remember my dad coming home from work, cleaning up, and running back out with my mom to vote. Every election. Told me how important it was and what was expected of you in society: you show up.

Two things: Please let’s not normalize antisemitism. Also, please let’s not normalize painting foreign aid as bad. Like, antisemitism and demonizing foreign aid are Right positions. Let’s not horseshoe into it.

Remember when Aldi's own pet products were known as "Romeo" for dogs and "Juliet" for cats? I always thought they missed a trick not making a dental stick called "Monty Chew" and litter called "Cat Pellets".

The whole thread (not a long one) is worth reading.

History doesn't reset the day after Trump. It's not automatic back to normal, yay democracy won. We will still have a republic that is gravely wounded and bleeding out. Defeating the current assailant doesn't mean you've stopped the bleeding. The wounds are still there and still potentially fatal.

I know the thing I posted was misleading and fake, but it got me a lot of attention, which made me feel good, while you pointing out it's fake made me feel not good. So really, aren't you the villain here?

Unhinged: All of Ferris Bueller's Day Off was a fever dream/fantasy in Cameron's mind. Slightly hinged: CJ was the real shuttle news leaker in The West Wing. Toby knew it, willingly took the fall for her, and she coerced President Bartlet into pardoning him to save both of them.

What's your most unhinged TV or movie take? I'll start. Replacing "Yub Nub" with instrumental flutes at the end of ROTJ is Ewok cultural erasure.

I absolutely love the first 2 seasons of Twin Peaks but season 3 is HORRIBLE BC it was David Lynch at his absolute worst—he is better when he has someone to temper his self-indulgent impulses. I am still so angry about Douggie. And the end! And Audrey appearing in 3 scenes. It was not good.

Do you know how bad the abuse has to be for a judge to remove kids from their birth mother? Just saw Amy Acton’s CNN interview about that Ramaswamy ad and , listen, I lived in NC through the Willie Horton ad era. I’m not precious. This is so disgusting that I wish I believed in hell. I really do.

Folks, what he's saying here is "if we get a bunch of manly man off duty/retired police officers as poll watchers, the evil dems won't be able to intimidate our poll watchers" It's stupid shit but not "let's get people to intimidate voters"

Headquarters@headquartersnews.bsky.social

Leaked audio: Michigan Republican Mike Rogers asking for officers at polling stations to intimidate voters "We called the RNC early and said hey... Let's put police officers, retired or off-duty police officers as our poll watchers in Detroit because go ahead, try to intimidate them. Please."

At 10am Judge Ana Reyes will begin an evidentiary hearing in the golf course case at 10am. I'll try to live-blog from the US Courthouse media room for @lawfaremedia.org . This is a case to stop Trump from converting a historic public golf course, open to all, to a Trump style championship course.

Now I'm wishing I still had the set of Holly Hobbie glasses I collected when I worked at Clancy's Hamburgers in Tipp City, OH in 1976-77.

I want to know the thing in your household that has absurdly outlived its intended lifetime. Like these McDonald’s promotional plates from 1997 (!!!) that are still in rotation at my parents’ house. Or my Limited Too pajama pants from 6th grade that I, uh, still wear.

We're aware of a phishing attack that has compromised more than 4,500 accounts. The attack spread through posts promoting a fake offer of a government payment. We have temporarily suspended the compromised accounts and are working with their owners to secure them and restore access.

So as y’all probably already know, Trump has a new blonde, Katie Zacharia. She claims to be an attorney, and apparently has been doing so for some time. But while she has a JD from Pepperdine for sure, nobody can seem to find any jurisdiction in which she has been admitted to the practice of law.

This is exactly what I’m talking about. I’m pretty sure David didn’t read the article, but if he did, he doesn’t understand it or journalism, because it definitely doesn’t do what he accuses it of doing.

"But if the center is now fragmented, it is also due to the corrosive effects of Macron’s style of governance, which he sold in both 2017 and 2022 as conciliatory, but which in practice has proved to be hyper-polarizing. The degree of that polarization is ... on display today." Gift link.
