I bought this exact Samsung hard drive last July for $299… Was going to get another one today and saw that it’s now $799?!??? The #AI #DataCenter mad dash is apparently swallowing up humble video / photo editing #SSD storage before our very eyes WTAF…

“These inflatable costumes are really blowing up this #Halloween…”
Love @mlb. Love postseason even more, even as my beloved #brewers didn’t get as far as they should have… again. Love baseball history even its complicated totality.
But: for the love of #Uecker can we plz get rid of all these dumbass corporate logos ON hats and uniforms ffs?
Blake Snell is ALWAYS spitting out some gross shells or weird mouth trash every time they cut to him in the dugout…
With news that Bari Weiss is going to be the new EIC at CBS News, I wanted to reup this piece I wrote 6 years ago about how she and Bret Stephens helped turn NYT into a moral panic factory www.mediamatters.org/new-york-tim...

Mm hmm
Amen! Need more “Darmok” in general, now more than ever.
The drinking game word for the latest @ezrakleinbot.bsky.social episode with @saikatc.bsky.social and Zephyr Teachout is definitely “enervate” - I think they collectively hit triple digits!
The way I see it, there are 4 big tools to fight this authoritarian administration:
- Congress (useless, compromised/terrified)
- Journalism (KEY, but weakened economically, legally & culturally)
- Justice system (stronger, but dangerously wobbly w Trump ignoring rulings & law firms folding)…
Jeffrey Goldberg thinking he was being pranked and then realizing he was actually just in the war plans group chat is such a good microcosm of how it feels to be alive right now, everything seems fake until you realize it’s actually real and incredibly stupid
it’s only cloture if it comes from the Clôture region, otherwise it’s just sparkling capitulation
The entire business model of American R1 universities is not viable without restoration of federal funding, & every individual institution pretending it can solve this problem alone is also not viable. University presidents need to be speaking out, collectively & loudly about this, in DC, right now.

There’s a lot of awful swirling around these days and wow this all sucks but why is it this hard to even know who I’m even addressing? Whispering / shouting into the æther with (mostly) love and respect, a

Hello fellow Dems - I was just trying to @ you all (inasmuch as that’s even a thing and who knows to what end any post serves) and maybe I’m too new here but wtf is this as an “Are we an entity? Hello?” existential roadblock?
First attempt:
you’re fired. wait you’re rehired. email us a list of things you’ve done today wait forget it you’re fired again. come back your job was important. you’re fired. or hired. come in to the office. wait the office has no computers go home. we are the department of government efficiency.
In times like these… #squirrelnutzippers still slap!

This sum-up of the terrible implications of the administration’s war on science is a chilling but important read.

Adams must be removed. The city cannot sustain being governed for nearly a year by a Mayor who is being coerced by Trump admin in order to escape charges.
This corruption poses a real threat to the people of the city. He should have resigned a while ago, but will not. So it’s time for him to go.
I’m new here but I’ve been making #photocollages for most of my adult life. I’m missing my late (but often early) father-in-law Richard Shepard. He was the King of Thanksgiving and one of my all-time favorite people. #patchworkaday

I saw #Wicked - liked it less than my kids. I’ve seen #TheWizardofOz on and off my whole life - love it in many ways. But the real ethos of the story still feels (to me) best realized by #MrBungle, as I’ve found many thing in life to have been…
