I get blocked because I can be annoying. I'm pedantic. I get it. It doesn't hurt my feelings, but I just want to know WHY. Was it the pedantry? Was it the politics? Was it "I just can't take how this guy is right all the time"? It's the last one, isn't it?

...the other is a bitter, friendless, talentless hack. But in the short intro for each one, they trade jokes about much they admire one another. I'm probably imagining things. Anyway... here's my Origin Story slashfic: (2/463)

This is exactly the way the rich guy who wants to turn the community center into a casino in your a kid's movie would frame it: it's progress; it's inevitable; dry your tears and deal with it.

If you haven't read this, you really should. After JFK slams Nixon, there's a bit (from "But the American people") that is the perfect example of why people beamed at America's promise, and why they shudder at the threat it poses. It's too long to post here, but it's a banger.

So sad to hear of John Farnham's deteriorating health. But I do so hope he's well enough to know how dearly he is loved ... and that his voice is one of our most precious national treasures. xx

I'm genuinely curious what's next for Ed Sheeran. I don't think this is going away for a while. It's quite possible he'll need a full pivot to MAGA. He'll be shooting cases of Bud Light with Kid Rock by Christmas. #Macklemore #Gaza

"If we lose the midterms, it would be the end of the Trump presidency." Mike Johnson If you believed that Trump was some kind of instrument of God, that his presidency was just and right and holy, well... that would justify doing anything to prolong it, wouldn't it? You'd be doing God's work.

One thing that's been bugging me today: people who claim Dolly Parton wasn't political. False. She was very political. Her art and life's work were about interrogating power + amplifying the powerless. You only think she wasn't political because she did this by example, not bullshit slogans.

I lost my X account this week. It's been indefinitely suspended because I violated the X rules for 'inauthentic behaviors'. The person I was talking with, Swedtraders, was using derogatory insults and my reply was to repost climate data from Zack Labe and Prof Elliot. I also called him delusional...

1/ Is this headline misleading? Yes, but not in the direction you'd expect. The problem isn't that it exaggerates. It's that it puts in 2100 what has already started. 🧵

Delta Airlines charging me for my bag? That's obnoxious. Delta Airlines charging me to book a seat? That's obnoxious. But Delta Airlines working with ICE to ship people to concentration camps is COLLABORATION. Boycot #delta
