A "Scaramucci" is still the standard unit of measurement. All other press secretaries are measured against a Scaramucci, even those fired more quickly. There isn't any need to muck up the units with more metric v. imperial faultlines.

“A Zacharia” is our new system of measurement for 5 days. Move over “A Scaramucci” is 11 days. 🤣 #GoodRiddance

I appreciate when someone forwards me the use of one of my tv graphics from the hellsite so I don’t have to really go there to see my work appreciated. @meninblazers.bsky.social on 🦋 used something else USMNT’s Julian Hall is only the 3rd player in history to score in each of his first 3 matches

Had a really lovely dream about Joe Biden. Talking with him about how I wished his life could have been easier but how much we appreciated him giving us a break from the orange menace. Hope this does not portend anything (not that I have any special foresight). I wish #46 years of health & 🍦

I just set up a recurring donation for @jerrigreen4tn.bsky.social to help her become the 1st female governor of #Tennessee Recurring donations help candidates more than a single donation, even if they come out as the same amount. Recurring $ helps with planning so even a small monthly helps a lot.

This is nitpicky #GrammarPolice stuff: Anytime I see someone post about “our family vaca!” I cringe. Should be “vacay”. The Spanish major in me sees the other way as “our family cow”. 🐄 @devincow.bsky.social, what say you?

Attendance 80,663. Add in Melanie, Lutnick & 🍊💩stain to get to 80,666

Get out and vote #Tennessee! Lots of local races for school board, county commission, plus primaries for state races. Mandy Cook is running in my TN House District 45.

Loving this story about a 2007 photo shoot that had 20-year-old Lionel Messi with a 5-month-old Lamine Yamal for a charity calendar. Sunday they’ll face each other in the #WorldCup Final #ArgentinavsSpain www.nytimes.com/athletic/561...

Even with 3 host nations, none of them could make it past the Round of 16. #WorldCup #ETTD

Cape Verde ties it again in Extra Time!!!! #WorldCup

I read this as “IKEA monitors”. 😬

Hey @actblueorg.bsky.social, please put a “share on @bsky.app” button on your recurring donation emails. We all left the #HellscapeX & can get more 💙 here. My recurring donation is to @mandycook4tn.bsky.social for #TN45 #Tennessee legislature if y’all can contribute! #CookingUpChange #LetHerCook

Sad the #WorldCup used an all-brass instrument version of the Senegal national anthem which is entitled “Pluck Your Koras, Strike the Balafons”. They are each delightful authentic instruments. Look them up!

Can’t say that I would have guessed country duo Dan + Shay as the U.S. National Anthem performers for the first USMNT #WorldCup 2026 match. They were good.

4 years ago I had worked 6 total soccer games ever. I’ve done live graphics on almost every U.S. Soccer match since. My knowledge base has changed. My interest in the #WorldCup increased 100 fold. Yet so unsure of how the USMNT will fare…fingers crossed they get out of the Group Stage. Go boys go! 🇺🇸

I’ve often said — usually after belting the 1st verse of “9 to 5” in my car— if Dollywood doesn’t have a coffee place called “Cup of Ambition” everyone on Dolly’s PR team has failed. Took 46 years, but they finally got her a coffee brand.

I do love the #TonyAwards, but man do I hate the graphics look. 1997, your Arial Font is calling. 🙄

Donned rubber boots with pants tucked in & covered myself with lemon eucalyptus oil for the 1 minute trek to my compost pile and back. Still got a lonestar tick bite…on my shoulder under my t-shirt sleeve. 🙄 #tennessee

Things to love about the #StanleyCupPlayoffs: a Game 6 where both teams’ goalies are run out of the net! The next most exciting thing is there should be a Game 7…Montreal vs Buffalo on Monday (Unless the Habs get 4 goals in the next 8 minutes)

I was working this game in Buffalo for the national broadcast. It was a pretty special moment. www.nytimes.com/athletic/724...

Anyone else watching the first episode of #DesignatedSurvivor on repeat for the next 2 days?

This is absolutely amazing.

Powerful. More of this please Boss.

I play a silly game inside of Wordle where I ask a question like “how’s my day going to be?” & see how the puzzle relates. Today I asked “how do we get the country back to normal?”

Read the (bath)room 🍊💩stain. 🙄🤦‍♀️ People are about to be forced by your regime to starve —in America — and you’re bragging about spending our money to renovate a perfectly fine bathroom.

A favorite slogan to come from the last election cycle in our very red area of #Tennessee is “It’s not radical to care about people”. Sadly we are all going to have to pitch in to keep our neighbors from starving (in America! 🤦‍♀️) If your area is doing a food drive, please post about it to amplify.

Shocked, but pleased, to go thru the Atlanta airport today & the monitors where #PuppyKiller #CosPlayDHSBarbie Krusti Noem is usually spouting politicized nonsense are dark. Small steps in a red/purplish state.

If you need a vision of what can be, subscribe to the Substack of @sarahkendzior.bsky.social Eye opening on so many levels.

Seriously @lawfaremedia.org, why are you giving this guy oxygen? #Unsubscribe

If our beloved Dolly Parton slips this mortal coil before some of the most hated evil members of the 🍊💩stain regime, the #EtsyWitches are gonna have a lot to answer for.

The Dutch can still do this, and it is brilliant! #Disney #NewDisney

Or more likely, the people walking by are whispering “fuck you fuck you fuck you”.

Oh #Tennessee, you really helped put people like this in charge, mostly by not voting. 🤦‍♀️ A lot of excuses coming out of the mouth of someone trying to take away full #library access in Sumner County.

Checking in with a new doctors office & choosing an #Ethnicity is a mandatory selection on their kiosk. All of the choices are #Hispanic or “declined to specify”. (Everyone should decline to specify.) What have we become?

This real church sign sums up several problems in our country. “We love hurting people” Really? 🤦‍♀️ How about “we care about people who are hurting”? Unless you do love hurting people. It is a #Tennessee church, so that is possible.

#SouthCarolina should send its candidate-hopefuls for Governor to investigate. Tell #NancyMace that the wasps are using the “wrong” bathroom and she’ll be the first one in (and first one stung).

And they wonder why people don’t want to bring children into this world … especially now. Every day is a new addition to the hellscape.

Spent my evening with 25 foster kids ages 2-13 to give their caregivers a break. The kids were so great, even when the AC went out. I know there are going to be so many more in the system who won’t get solid care, especially here in TN. We have a messed up world & kids are going to suffer most.

Now seems the time to repost this big story we did a few years ago... www.motherjones.com/politics/202...

I will keep this on all night so they know that someone is watching! Charge your phones and listen with me. Supposed to take about 15 hours to read the whole thing.

President Biden and Vice President Harris hold hands next to Governor Walz and his wife at the funeral service of Rep. Melissa Hortman and her husband Mark Hortman. It hurts to see what could have been.🥹 May we all soon see the day our nation is led with decency and kindness once again. #Respect

I did not edit this, this is the actual parade with the actual music being played. CINEMATIC

The #UFC fight is on in the hotel bar & I just saw the U.S Secretary of State throw a White Supremacy hand sign (while standing next to Eric tRump). Wave with the left hand, Okay/W sign with his right. What a POS #LiddleMarco has become. I left before the 🍊💩stain came on.

NHL Commissioner Gary Bettman always comes off as such a douche. Even the ASL interpreter on this presser can’t quite cover it up for him. 🏒🤦‍♀️😬💩

Lure him to The Hague and put him on trial!
