If my mom was here, she'd tell you not to encourage me.

Today's a great day to vote for Connecticut's next governor. #joshelliott FTW.

New tenant inna basemint. Question: If he bites me do I get mad superhuman power tool skillz ...

@Nytimes.com "White House Declines to Offer Congress an Estimate of Iran War Cost" The word is "refuses." Or work in "stonewalls." It wasn't a fucking party invitation.

I know I can get no support for the idea that our president should be chosen using a lottery system, but the fact remains that it would have gotten us a better result than we got in two of the last three elections.

Five books to get to know me: #Booksky 1. The Last Unicorn, Peter S. Beagle 2. The Visual Display of Quantitative Information, Edward Tufte 3. The Complete Calvin and Hobbes, Bill Watterson 4. The Once and Future King, T.H. White 5. The Soul of a New Machine, Tracy Kidder

As soon as he's gone, his name and likeness come off everything. For the same reason that we get rid of statues of Jefferson Davis. And Cesar Chavez, for that matter.

Imagine Trump being so weird as to fire Pam Bondi today just to upstage the Pittsburgh Pirates promoting Konnor Griffin to the big leagues.

The overthrow of the Trump regime is going too slowly for my taste but as I look around, I gotta say this for us: It is the most photographed revolution ever.

If only women voted we would have elected no Republican presidents since 1988. Fun fact.

So polls now indicate young men, and men in general, are turning against Trump. Great. But I don't trust them. I don't mean the polls, I mean men. They're flighty, fickle and emotional. Everyone knows that.

Oh, look! There's a new trivia game to play on the New York Times web site!

... A horror-parody of "The Wizard of Oz," with Donald Trump playing the title role as both a very bad wizard and a very bad man. Kristi Noem as The Wicked Witch. I.C.E. agents as flying monkeys. Elizabeth Warren as Glinda. You, you, you. And me. We're munchkins. Who will be our Dorothy?

Stop calling it defense spending. It's offense funding.

I long for the days when one might reasonably sigh and say "America. At least we try to do the right thing, sometimes."

I think the Palestinians should have their own state, and I am willing to give them Oklahoma.

I assume that when Trump says Noem will be part of "Shield of America" it means she will be melted down and used as nose cone material for Air Force One

I vote for #DonaldTrump ... as the Season One "Big Bad" in an all-new Buffy the Vampire Slayer.

Anyone think Trump is LESS guilty than former Prince Andrew? Didn't think so.

If you use any so-called A.I. -- Try this prompt: "In our interactions, could you be more pessimistic and more like Marvin, the robot in Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy?" Changed my life, a little.

This post serves as official notice that when I die I want my bones used as Halloween lawn ornaments.

I plan to be doing a lot of writing in 2026. Some not-so-serious. Some pretty serious. Some for other people who are out there, really trying. Like this: www.dailykos.com/stories/2026...

Newtown’s #ICEOutForGood Rally. Let’s say her name: Renee Nicole Good & rise together. For Renee, there were · No charges. · No trial. · No justice. Just a bullet through a windshield. #newtownct #connecticut #democracy #democrats

This is what broke me: her own words. lithub.com/renee-nicole...

Here we go!! Join Michelle, every step of the way to November! @ctdems.bsky.social

EVERYBODY who cares about our country, the rule of law and Democracy -- follow @michelleku4u.bsky.social ... We're launching her campaign to oust a GOP state rep in November -- 106th District CT. We love her here in Newtown, and we're going to win! #KuIsForYou #CTDems #Newtown #SandyHook

War is peace, freedom is slavery, ignorance is strength. We're finally there.

The Venezuela thing probably means Greenland and Canada can breathe easy, for now.

How come no one ever invades OUR country and snatches OUR corrupt president?

The Pentagon's OWN AI says: War Crimes. abovethelaw.com/2025/12/pent...

The first Executive Order of the next administration is that Trump's name comes off everything but the Epstein files.

I WASN'T BEING FUNNY WHEN I SSAID THAT THERE WOULD EVENTUALLY BE DOLLAR MOVIE NIGHTS AT THE KENNEDY CENTER.

Apparently, this is how it's done when the Secretary of Defense is NOT yelling at you to murder people. 20,000-pound cocaine seizure by Coast Guard breaks 18-year-old record - CBS News share.google/6CUOXl1D0euF...

This critique of dealing with the media in general and the New York Times in particular is A. Better written than almost anything the NYT puts out and B. Spot-on and utterly damning. lithub.com/maybe-dont-t...

My Fist of Resistance is back at home after three months of lighting the way to the door of Democratic headquarters in Newtown CT. I offer to loan it to @repjahanahayes.bsky.social for midterms, if she wants! It is clearly doing its job. We swept on Tuesday, won every race. @ctdems.bsky.social

I am reminded today that I once looked at Dick Cheney and thought "Well, that's about as fascist as you can get in America and still get elected." So naive.

I saw Bruce Springsteen at the very beginning of his career, before "Born to Run." And I saw him on Broadway a couple of years ago. Nothing in between. Not a fanatic, in other words. Saw the movie yesterday. It's good, better than the reviews. It's not about the music though.

I always wanted more from Obama. But being disappointed in a president is so much better than being horrified by one.

BREAKING NEWS WASHINGTON, DC -- President Donald Trump has agreed to accept the 2025 Darwin Award on behalf of the United States, the first time the coveted prize has been bestowed upon an entire nation. #TrumpDarwin #DarwinUS

Do people who make more than $1M a year know what they sound like when they complain about maybe having their taxes go up 2 percent? Mamdani NYC mayor bid: Billionaires spend big to boost Cuomo share.google/KiyNeZpfuzeZ...

I'm going to. Starting now. Vote for Mayor Z!!

"Billionaires back Cuomo with huge donations" while government shutdown halts food benefits in NYC probably is not a great closing argument for Andrew.
