On Jan 28th ~ about 140 ships safely passed through the Strait of Hormuz
Then, the president spent $30 billion, threatened to commit a war crime & sent 13 US soldiers to their death โฆ
To ensure that ships can safely enter the strait of Hormuz
THATโS the art of the deal.
When I was a kid, my oldest sister Sean was the only one allowed to use the washing machine, so it was her responsibility to wash my clothes. My sisters shared a room (it was bubble gum pink, too) which meant they had their own clothes hamper (we just called it the โdirtyclothesโ).

So much this. Also, the tech bro mafia doesn't really like reading. They don't *appreciate* reading. So just because *they* can't spot the difference between good writing and bad writing, they think most people can't either.
I think the reason AI propagandists are so flustered by the fact that no real writer wants to use their idiotic tools is that they themselves don't enjoy writing. They see it as a boring arduous chore to be avoided, while real writers actually enjoy writing and actually care about the quality of it.
thank youuuu and so nice to finally meet! ๐ค

That report on @60minutes.bsky.social Scott Pelley on the cave Son Doong was AMAZING. Bravo ๐๐พ Wonderfully shot, well written, and quite informative. Beautifully told exploration of this wonder ๐๐ฝ
Yet never has so much been seen, so precisely, by so many people who understand so little of what they are seeing. A system can tell you where a man is. It cannot tell you what his death will mean for a nation. Such systems are trained on behavior, not on meaning โ they can track what an adversary does but not what he fears, honors, remembers or would die for.
I genuinely think the president and many of his advisers, scammers, hustlers, and keyboard gangsters, donโt understand this concept at all and you can see it in the pattern of their mistakes from Minneapolis to Tehran www.nytimes.com/2026/03/29/o...

When twitter was perceived as liberal it was a bubble and people should not take it seriously. But now that it's a cesspool of right-wing propaganda it's the Soul of America and the libs ignore it at their peril
Itโs just funny that theyโre still pretending itโs because he was such a great general and not because he fought for ethnonationalism and slavery. All that edglord nonsense and they still canโt be honest bsky.app/profile/bern...
If you're wondering why Thune is desperate to get Trump to cut a funding deal it's because thanks to Trump's genius political intellect captive audiences of thousands of angry swing state voters are now watching ICE get paid to to this literally in front of the TSA agents who aren't getting paid
would love to hear from TSA agents about how ICE is โassistingโ you. please.
In MEMPHIS โ Trump says he told Republicans not to make any deal for TSA funding until he gets his voter suppression bill passedโฆ then in the next breath says Dems are to blame for long airport lines ๐ค
On Fridayโs live discussion, we talked about storytelling & the tendency to conflate Blackness with poverty, pain & struggle.

I'm not a political consultant but i feel like dems could probably get a lot of leverage out of pushing for green technologies that would wean the us off being dependent on oil in this particular moment
Amazing life story an advice from this 99-yr-old woman! She is turning 100 this year ๐๐ฝ๐บ๐๐ฝ
With Joy Reid, Mehdi Hasan, Tiffany Cross, Melissa Harris-Perry, and Zerlina Maxwell gone, and Alex Wagner, Ayman Mohyeldin, Katie Phang, and Josรฉ Dรญaz-Balart relegated to less visible roles on MS NOW, the rebrand is beginning to look like Jim Crow television news from 60 years ago.
BLUMENTHAL: Shouldn't we be disgusted by an agent that fires at a citizen, no criminal record, she was charged and the charges were dismissed. Wouldn't you agree that agent should not be carrying a firearm?
MARKWAYNE MULLIN: I'm not familiar with the investigation
Tiffany Cross, @mehdirhasan.bsky.social, & @katiephangshow.bsky.socialโs shows too. Loved them all
