#BOTD in 1925:
Paul Newman, the first actor to play me on screen in the 1956 TV production of Bang the Drum Slowly. "From here on in, I rag nobody".

I understand this talented young man went on to have a pretty good acting career and to do some great philanthropic work.

The good news: the president has pardoned the turkey.

The bad news: two hours later the turkey was arrested for running a ponzi scheme and committing acts of gross sexual imposition.

I feel like the shorts are why these unis have always been disparaged, but I really liked them, especially w/the navy pants. The only flaw is not having the collar extend around the neck (guess that would have crowded out the NOBs). But the font & untucked shirt made them visually interesting.

In case anybody was still wondering what the ‘P’ in POTUS stands for in 2025.

Everyday I listen to @wfuv.bsky.social because I know @cornyoconnell.bsky.social will make my commute better by playing tracks I love like Everyday I Write the Book by Elvis Costello. And I even like the new Taylor Swift single that he played!

On Veterans Day, we honor those who served and commit to serving them in return — not just in words, but in actions.

Affordability and a real commitment to mental health are essential to ensure that every veteran can build a future here in New York City.

Senator Blue Slips everybody!
Durbin said critics of his vote “need to understand how the Senate works”

Tim Kaine was completely useless on the campaign trail for Hillary back in 2016 so it's not at all surprising to see him being completely useless in the Senate in 2025. Total loser.
This, from Tim Kaine is HILARIOUS:

Every now and then, a movie comes along that forever changes the landscape of film. I truly believe this is one of those films.

Just heard @cornyoconnell.bsky.social play T-Heads’ Girlfriend is Better from the Stop Making Sense soundtrack on @wfuv.bsky.social and boy did it make the last leg of my commute so much better! So glad I renewed my FUV membership last month!

Looking forward to learning all about how the right should move left to win elections tomorrow. They should maybe dye their hair pink, learn to love pronouns.

Just hit the mute button. If I have to watch the Dodgers win the World Series it will be without having to listen to Smoltz.

I didn’t think John Schneider was serious when he said Max was going back out there.

The East Wing was where Eleanor Roosevelt welcomed all visitors to the White House.

That must have kept this administration up nights until they could knock it down. To build a ballroom we can't afford, during a shutdown, for a president who just posted himself dropping shit on the country.

I'm old enough to remember when David Broder said of Bill Clinton, "He came in here and he trashed the place, and it's not his place." Every day, in ways both literal and figurative, we now can see what trashing the place truly means. wapo.st/4hqBNiU
White House begins demolishing East Wing facade to build Trump’s ballroom
The president had claimed construction of the $250 million ballroom wouldn’t ‘interfere’ with the existing White House structure.

Trump on moving World Cup games from Boston: "We could take them away. Your mayor is not good."

1. No, he can't take them away. He doesn't have the ability to do that.
2. Even if he could do that, no World Cup games are scheduled for Boston. Foxboro is not Boston.
3. This will only help increase Mayor Wu's margin of victory next month.

Of course he did. They all did, including that psychopath RFK jr. They just don’t want YOU to get vaccinated.

What does he mean by “we”? He‘s a coward who faked bone spurs to get out of fighting in Vietnam.
Trump: "The problem with Vietnam, we, you know, we stopped fighting to win. We would've won easy. We would've won Afghanistan easy. We would've won every war easy. But we got politically correct. 'Oh, let's take it easy.' We're not politically correct anymore, just so you understand."
