Haven't had to make a bio for an app profile in maybe a decade? I used to try to make them funny.

The online part was important too, of course. We collectively decided to not interact with any right wing post or comment ever. Trolls and bots lost their power. This is a good lesson.

Generation X talks a lot about how culture kind of skips over us, going from Boomer led to millennial led, but we took our first big swing and gave the world RENT, and continued to act for now 30 years like that's a moon landing and not a crime of taste.

BSky has 4 kinds of users: At first the infant, Mewling and puking in the nurse’s arms; And then the whining school-boy, with his satchel. Then a soldier, Full of strange oaths, and bearded. And then the justice, fair round belly with good capon lin’d, Full of wise saws and modern instances

Harry Kane did what all the great actors do. Make your talent utterly undeniable, and wait for the guy who gets all the awards to move away or retire. Extremely well deserved.

Trump Unleashes Racist Tirade That should be the headline in every newspaper.

Trump: "Somalia -- 98% of the people here now from Somalia don't work. They don't have to work because they steal so much. They all have a Mercedes Benz. Low IQ and they live better than you do."

Bolsonaro-friendly mayors appear to be sabotaging public transport on Election Day. Buses aren’t running in Lula-friendly areas, flights and ferries mysteriously canceled. Traffic lights have gone out and people’s power cut in Salvador, indigenous people’s travel restricted

We are watching a coup d’état attempt unfold in real time in Brazil. I’m consumed by desperation.

Yeah, this man should not be allowed to practice law, and any failure to take away his ability to practice law after all of this would be a part of the end of the rule of law in America.

Blanche on CBS says his suit against Alaska is "asking the court to step in where the Alaska Supreme Court didn't, which is to look at federal law and if necessary to allow a process for Alaska to decide who should be certified as the winner." (So, the voters won't get to decide. Got it.)

Yes, brilliant move sir! Take the single most repulsive Republican campaign ad of my entire life and make it national issue for the whole party! Genius!

Q: Ashley Hinson, who you're campaigning for tonight, says the Ramaswamy ad is 'absolutely terrible' and should be taken down. Why are you defending it? TRUMP: I'm defending it because I know that if that ad was about my mother, you would love every inch of it

Tommy Tuberville pledged in 2020 to donate his Senate salary to Alabama veterans & families. An investigation found no evidence he did. The pledge is worth roughly $1 million. Asked about it, he had staff remove him, then called the media socialists and communists. www.huffpost.com/entry/tommy-...

Mbaye is my favorite of the new Aston Villa bunch. Once these (too many at once,) new pieces understand each other a little better they could be quite imposing.

Team Paxton appears to have sent out fake mailers to Texas voters impersonating a trans student group and claiming to want to help kids secretly transition. The actual group said they had nothing to do with it, despite the mailers copying their aesthetic, and the address traces to a random UPS box.

The White House says the malicious manipulation of Ukrainian access to StarLink and StarShield is over. Zelenskyy says it continues. And Zelenskyy, of course, is correct.

Talarico: "We just found out that [Elon Musk] is almost single-handedly bankrolling this effort to install Ken Paxton in the U.S. Senate and defeat this movement...Elon Musk wants our land. He wants our water. He wants his very own personal United States senator. He is trying to buy Texas."

Trump is such a great negotiator that he has to keep demanding better people to negotiate with.

Q: Zelenskyy says you're on the wrong side of history TRUMP: What'd you say? Q: He says you're on wrong side of history TRUMP: Zelenskyy doesn't know what he's talking about. Zelenskyy is a man that should've had this war settled. It's time for somebody else to negotiate on behalf of Ukraine

Q: Will you disavow the Muslim Brotherhood? El-Sayed: Yes. Why are you asking the question? Do you assume that I wouldn’t? Q: Yes, because I have not heard you disavow them yet. El-Sayed: Have you disavowed them? I have not heard you disavow them yet.

Unless judges are going to start throwing people in jail, there's basically no reason to think this regime will listen to them much longer. They themselves have already clearly begun to figure out that they probably don't have to.

Yuuuuuuuuuuuup. I've mentioned before that when I was, like, 10, my IQ was very important to me. The older I've become the more I've recognized IQ is, if not just plain nonsense, then a wildly limited way to understand how one's brain gets along in the world and with other humans.

Goddamn they would be fucking launching an endless stream of TALAFREAKO merch out of a tee shirt cannon every day for the next three weeks if I was even within earshot of his campaign manager for ten seconds. What a gift to be given that sick-ass nickname by the worst guy alive.
