Ditto, ditto.

Karma won out at the end of the day, thankfully - 2.0 husband a far superior model!

Ask me how I know this first-hand - nah, let's not rehash earlier wrongs & move ahead already.

We're all flawed humans.

But leaning into our flaws in a "whoopsie", I've got a "hall pass", or "what she doesn't know" is just toxic entitled willful BS from the get-go.

One could ask why I expect better from mainstream media doing things the same old same old way.

Why is anyone still giving Nancy Pelosi prime time air time?

She's done her time, but her era has passed.

Looking at YOU, MSNBC.

Spotify is running recruitment ads for ICE and their owner is helping to develop military AI. Maybe hit that "cancel my account" button?

It’s time to cancel your account.

The Portland ICE protest camp literally has a rack full of inflatable costumes for demonstrators who want to try one on...

Do you want to support the Portland Frog and #AMPIFA but don’t want to get inside and inflatable frog suit? You can get this t-shirt on Amazon, designed by yours truly. amzn.to/3KVz8RT

No AI

If you want it in time for the No Kings protest, you will need to order today to have it arrive in time.

HA! Or just migrate to the new one 4 blocks east, maybe?

Yes, crowds getting bigger + more people in costumes or life-size inflatables!

The US federal attack on Portland has resulted in the best advertisement for a city that I have ever seen. Round-the-clock joy, community solidarity and silliness that much of the West has lost and longs for.

We already have bans on ABC/CBS/CNN/NBC Sunday national AM programming.

May dip briefly into MSNBC. Don't follow Fox (except for local Fox affiliate for local news only.)

May need to adopt.

The 'no news' part, that is.

Already all-in for rest...

The fun thing about the plethora of apps on our phones is that you can just poke around and find all kinds of evidence that Portland is not, in fact, burning.

We just taped Stephanie Ruhle’s 11 pm MSNBC show tonight and I am pleased to report that my MVP for this week (a Friday segment) was the inflatable frogs of Portland.

Blessed are the frogs, for they keep making authoritarians look incredibly stupid
Three persons in inflatable frog costumes. One of them is holding a nicely painted sign with two little cartoon frogs holding hands, below the text "FROGS TOGETHER STRONG"

David Simon, creator of ‘The Wire’, being interviewed by Ari Shapiro (NPR)
SHAPIRO: OK, so you've spent your career creating television without Al, and I could imagine today you thinking, boy, I wish I had had that tool to solve those thorny problems... SIMON: What? SHAPIRO: ...Or saying... SIMON: You imagine that? SHAPIRO: ...Boy, if that had existed, it would have screwed me over. SIMON: I don't think Al can remotely challenge what writers do at a fundamentally creative level. SHAPIRO: But if you're trying to transition from scene five to scene six, and you're stuck with that transition, you could imagine plugging that portion of the script into an Al and say, give me 10 ideas for how to transition this. SIMON: I'd rather put a gun in my mouth.
