Priceless post from the official White House social media

Thought that maybe, just maybe, @seattletimes.com would do the right thing and slip a bare-minimum credit into their piece on the story I broke, including my screenshot of the IG story, shortly before it vanished.

96 years ago tonight, CBS’s first breaking news broadcast went out from the scene of one of the deadliest fires in US history, in a voice identified only as “Convict X-46812.”

Washington Post Editorial Board headline: “The Texas gerrymander freak out. What’s happening in Texas is not a threat to democracy.”

Washington Post Editorial Board headline: “Virginia plunges America deeper into the gerrymandering abyss. The redistricting scheme was always a power grab by Democrats. Voters went along with it.”

The Washington Post Editorial Board was fine with Republicans gerrymandering in Texas.

But when Democrats responded in Virginia, it’s a “power grab” that “plunges America deeper into the gerrymandering abyss.”

I guess I was a bit unclear. Alt text doesn't make image magically appear. By OK i mean - it's usable, it still makes sense, even if you can't see it. Because you can read the description.

how it feels to say "sprezzatura"

I have opposed gerrymandering every single time it has come up. It’s a perversion of the political process. I voted Yes in this election without hesitation. Unilateral disarmament is unacceptable.

How many iOS updates is it between now & September 1st?

Asking for a very tired iphone & ipad 📱😓

"my wife recoils from me when i wear them" is an amazing self-report

This Is Just To Say

I have turned off
the AI features
that were in
the update

and which
you were probably
hoping
to monetize

Fuck you
they were stupid
so unnecessary
and so annoying
