@marcelias.bsky.social : “Mr. Blanche... we have beaten you and your team in court like a drum. So I hope you don't do what you are threatening or insinuating you might do. But if you do, I will see you in those courtrooms. I will win. And then I will dance on your head for those victories.”

Both “Moby Dick” and “Dracula” are now in the public domain, which means you could make a “Moby Dick Meets Dracula” movie and no one could stop you.

“A ship bearing Dracula’s coffin is en route to England when, without warning, the vessel is set upon by the legendary white whale.”

I haven't seen this article get shared enough on here. Chuck Culpepper either has some deep family connection to Milwaukee or he's just the most observant eye around. NOTHING from a national outlet has come close to capturing our World Series experience here like this. www.espn.com/mlb/story/_/...

espn.comHow Milwaukee celebrated its World Series return, 44 years in the makingMilwaukee fans waited decades to see their team in the World Series. And in Game 1, the Brewers -- and the party -- didn't disappoint.

Just remember kids, no matter how hard he throws one tonight, Jacob Misiorowski will only have made the second fastest pitch during the World Series. The fastest pitch came in 1982 when Ernie Von Schledorn asked in an ad aired during the World Series “who do you know wants to buy a car?”

We can be both thankful that People Magazine of all places continues to do solid political reporting, and very pissed that “more reputable” news media fail to do likewise.

Huh - and here I assumed tRump’s twerpy son-in-law was just an excellent diplomat!

Jared Kushner’s hacked iPhone revealed he promised MBS and MBZ he would push their agenda with Trump if they participated in a secret fund, with the two royals initially discussing over $10B before ultimately placing at least $2B into his accounts. Paywalled, use archive. archive.ph/FHGAt

I do believe this is their play. Hope I’m wrong.

PSA: You are not alarmed enough about what Trump has planned🚨 🗳️ A Washington insider tells us keep an eye on Kevin McCumber — “if he gets forced out things get scary… legislative coup… Local reporters shld make sure they’ll respect certifications by states, oppose the Clerk overthrowing results.”

We as a country need to sit on this dude with our collective full weight. Nationalize Starlink or be deported, take your pick.

Pretty good acting from the baboons, though. Convincing reaction shots, unease effectively conveyed, then quickly shifting to rage. Nice work, baboons!

If recent events haven’t spelled it out (Musk doc banned on TikTok, No Kings throttled by Meta), the major social media platforms in this country are controlled by right wing-aligned fascists. It’s not good. Dems are gonna be left with printing flyers on letterpresses for their messaging soon.
