they're both basically like shooting womp rats in beggar's canyon back home as far as i'm concerned.

The editorial desk carries Trump's ass up the mountain to fetch water every day, undermining their journalism efforts.

For them to exhibit any daylight, rather than sanewashing or blaming Biden is wild.

I am one of the concerned Jewish writers! We were—and remain—concerned that the Jewish Book Council's apparent bias toward centering Israeli & Zionist voices is not only exclusionary but harmful. Thanks to @temim.bsky.social & @emmaceisenberg.bsky.social for organizing. lithub.com/an-open-lett...

Republicans will talk about Obama's "red line" in Syria until the cows come home because he wanted a new AUMF from Congress.

Trump *refuses* to go to Congress for an AUMF but (thankfully!!!) is a gd tacoing waffler and has all the structural fortitude of a used condom.

Blood Money: The Anthropic Settlement The actual audacity of it all

I just finished filing my claim with the #Anthropic settlement, which used FIFTEEN of my books to train the goddamned Temu Terminator, and I am fucking furious and heartbroken about it:

pretty sure I saw them at the Wetlands in tribeca and 7 Willow in portchester. maybe other places.

like i said, i'm taking this secret to the grave.

The only secret I truly intend to take to my grave is how much I liked ska in high school

Weeeeeeeee!

None of those are believers. They're in on the grift.

The people at the top of the admin are definitely thinking about themselves.

It's unclear whether democratic leadership can think.

None of that has anything to do with how embarrassing it is to be a republican

Republicans thinking?

Why would I care about you personally?

I remain confused how anyone sees in trump the promise of a better America. He's cruel, self serving and capricious. He enriches himself at our expense. What is to like?

I'm a Democrat. I'm not always in support of everything that goes on. Politics are messy.

You are doing a lot of extrapolating about me.

I honestly do not care the slightest bit about you. I, personally, can't imagine anything more embarrassing than being a republican.

Does that help?

I don't respect anyone who tacitly supports masked secret police...

let alone the grift, capriciousness, incompetence, pedophilia and et cetera

Yawn, otherwise just kvetch about a lack of agency? Sounds great.

Yes, it's weird that republicans support fascists!!! I don't get it either.

I don't even understand what you're saying but if it's that you support masked storm troopers breaking down doors indiscriminately to terrorize americans and non americans alike then I'm probably not with you.

bruh what? political parties are self selecting.

I think that's closer to maga. Supporting a monarch or Trump means that your own humanity is less than.
