“They were careless people, Tom and Daisy- they smashed up things and creatures and then retreated back into their money or their vast carelessness or whatever it was that kept them together, and let other people clean up the mess they had made.” ― F. Scott Fitzgerald, The Great Gatsby

Lmao crying….Navi Pillay after winning the Nobel Peace prize says "if you clap a little bit more I may share this prize with Trump" 🤣💀

I definitely didn’t have “Trump doxxing Tom Cotton“ on my Saturday bingo card. Holy shit.

I’m watching a TV show about the famous German pilot, the Red Baron. I‘ve not gotten to the discussion yet on how his legacy was kept alive via the party pizza trade.

AI is to creating as the production line is to crafting.

Of all the stupid things Trump has done, the proposed EO to allow for inspection-free beef processing might actually be in the top 3 dumbest. As someone who’s worked adjacent to the protein value chain, I can‘t overstate how much this doesn’t solve anything to create even bigger problems.

I think I maybe undersold how gross the “prank” played on this employee was. Imagine you come into work, try to help customers, and later realize they've racked up 500,000+ views on social media by harassing you and your coworkers.

A One Act MAGA Play Regime: Prices are going down. MAGA: Horray! The Media™️: Please explain? Regime: Not gonna play this game. The Media™️: So you can’t explain? Regime: You‘re a communist. MAGA: Get ‘em! <Gathering cult noises> The Media™️: This is great content! <Fire noises> The End

There’s understandable schadenfreude watching Trump flail around, but it’s also important to observe that he‘s doing what bullies often do when confronted: fold like a lawn chair.

“People said we were using an unacceptable amount of power, and with these upgraded facilities that require so much more of it, we’ve shown that we took those criticisms to heart,” said Sam Altman

Just saw an Olive Garden commercial announcing three new entrées. They did not, however, indicate whether an ID would be required to access these dishes. Not helpful.

EDM is one of France’s top 5 exports and that’s a hill I’ll die on.

Lithium commercial just now: “remember when song lyrics were the most toxic thing in your life?” Woof. Sure do!

More flopping: soccer or professional wrestling?

Quite a juxtaposition in sport over the last 24 hours. On one hand we’ve seen the World Cup bring cultures together as with the Tartan Army marching through Boston. On the other hand, bread and circuses at the White House. I’d like to see media contrast the two aggressively.

A recent #DigitalArt sticker design, just for funsies.

Let’s try a new thing where we hold the person accountable for recklessly taking us to the brink of a catastrophe. Again.

I’ve noticed today RE: Trump‘s meltdown that MAGA supporters generally aren‘t justifying the comments on their own merits, per se, but rather via equivalency with the “crimes” and faults of opponents. Cultivated lies and logical fallacy have broken 35% of the population and IDK how it gets fixed.

America first, amirite?

This is my first thought every time I see someone honking their horn at minor or non-existent inconveniences in traffic. A goose…you look like a Canada Goose.

So, how long before we start asking with a straight face if the Trump syndicate is getting involved in drug trafficking? The Hernandez pardon coupled with previous ones of El Chapo’s family (who bribed Hernandez), in context of activity in Venezuela is…interesting.

Chiming in with a periodic reminder to stay focused on things that matter, parse signal from noise, and resist bait from bad actors—both adversaries to the pro-democracy cause and single issue agitators among us—seeking to sew division under the pro-democracy tent. Focus is critical.
