Toward the end of last year, I limited my activity on this hellsite to the #Bales2023FilmChallenge. I'll be doing the #Bales2024FilmChallenge over on Bl**sky, where I'm spending most of the time I used to spend here. See my profile for my handle. Time to leave this Nazi bar.

Listening to the interviews today, it’s actually so insane that people hate this team. All of these guys say the right things, play for each other, the organization and the fans. We went wrong somewhere if this is what we hate now.

Irresponsible.
Soldiers in the streets of Democratic cities based on lies about apocalyptuc disorder is not a "distraction from high prices."
It is: Soldiers in the streets of Dem cities based on lies about apocalyptic disorder.
Please join us against fascism, senator.

With all due respect @SenDuckworth and @SenatorDurbin As a resident of Chicago I’m going to need more from
my senators besides saying deploying @NationalGuard on the streets of Chicago is a distraction.
No. It’s tyranny in EVERY sense of the word. What are you and @GovPritzker doing to stop this illegal action?
Our children deserve better than to see MRAPs rolling down our streets. MRAPs have been used in DC. What an absolute disgrace.
We need better and more from you.
Why aren’t you assisting @ChicagosMayor ? And helping him protect us?

Important to remember that @lawler4ny and the whole GOP House delegation from New York brought you today’s tariff implosion. Congress cld take this power from Trump at any moment. But they decided to support the tariffs 100%. And these are the consequences.

We belong. Sports jobs are Times Guild jobs.
WE HAVE EXCITING NEWS! Today, workers from @TheAthletic sent a letter to Times management calling on them to recognize Athletic editorial workers as members of the Times Guild. We are thrilled to have them in our union.

If Biden and Harris were serious about inflation, they would have spread rumors about immigrants eating house pets.

Union members voted for Harris at basically the same rate as they voted for Biden, really fuck off with this

Just read the insights of Jeff Bezos in his opinion piece in The Post. I wasn't going to join 200,000 others and cancel my subscription because doing so won't hurt Bezos -- he paid more for his yachts than his newspaper -- and, yes, the Post newsroom where good people, and some friends still labor continues providing meaningful journalism. But, my god, this man's insipid defense of his own transparent cowardice is provoking.
I cancelled. I wasn't going to do it. I probably shouldn't, and certainly, if this technobrat oligarch ever releases his grip on what needs to be an independent newsroom and editorial board, indifferent to the financial positions of its publisher, then I'll return. But this kind of abuse of a public trust by a publisher is unacceptable.

Some of our Washington Post readers have dementia. Some have criminal records. They may see themselves in Presidential Trump, so to endorse his opponent would be an insult to the subscribers we hold so dear.

WaPo's opinion editor approved a Harris endorsement. A week later, the publisher killed it. Ian Bassin, a democracy expert, calls these moves “anticipatory obedience”: fear by owners that if Trump wins he could take vengeance on companies that cross him. cjr.org/political_press/the-…

Today would be a good day to cancel your Washington Post subscription. @wapo will not make an endorsement in the 2024 presidential election: Democracy versus Fascism & they don't want to weigh in after 36 yrs despite their Democracy Dies in Darkness slogan

Yeah I’m not reading all that. Just canceled my subscription and I’m encouraging my 800K followers to do the same.

A new NBC News poll has Kamala Harris leading Donald Trump by 5 points, setting the stage for the biggest late stage Democratic collapse in recent history.

Trump: We have to cherish Mark Robinson. You have to cherish him. He’s like a fine wine. He's an outstanding person. I've gotten to know him so well
