Boston Market with to-go liquor would be an easy revival

Colin Durant @colindurant.bsky.social · 10h

Top 3:

1) Boston Market for the # of wine parents
2) Popeye's, because you are getting whatever random-ass cocktail the staff thinks you deserve
3) Sweetgreen/Evergreen's (tie), because everyone's drinking too much compared to the salad they eat.

Colin Durant @colindurant.bsky.social · 10h

we can joke about Popeye's all we like, but deep in our bones, we know this is the right answer.

"Republicans blocked paying the troops during the shutdown but found $20 billion to bail out Argentina's bad crypto investments" should be the sort of thing that leads every local newscast, but...

Aaron Fritschner @fritschner.bsky.social · 15h

A few minutes ago in the House:

- Speaker Mike Johnson officially cancels votes next week, extending the House recess through a fourth week

- House Republicans block Democrats from passing a bill to pay the troops during the shutdown, ensuring they will miss paychecks next week

House Press Gallery: During today's pro forma session, the Clerk read a message from the Speaker designating Tuesday, October 14 through Sunday, October 19 as a district work period.

Punchbowl's Briana Reilly: House gaveled in and out of its pro forma just now w/o recognizing Rep Elfreth, who was seeking to UC a mil pay bill from Rep Sykes.

Elfreth told reporters after that House Dems stand “ready and willing to take” up standalone legislation to pay troops.

based on my spouse's recent trip and visit with our friends, it's the feds' helicopters flying over residential neighborhoods all the time for no apparent reason that are freaking people out, not the nonexistent fires.

Trump: "Portland, I mean -- every time I look at that place it's burning down. There are fires all over the place. When a store -- there are very few of them left -- but when a store owner rebuilds a store they build it out of plywood. They don't put up storefronts anymore. They just put wood up."

so we're saying definitely more than 30 to 50 wild hogs, right?

Sharon @sharonk.bsky.social · Jan 9

this is possibly the dumbest chekhov's gun for a major hog infestation in the next 4 years

Malaclypse the Fetus @omfproductions.bsky.social · Jan 9

Federal Programs to address wild hogs were specifically cited as wasteful spending by DOGE and pulled from the CR as I recall as well.

they’re always going to arrest journalists and anyone recording them if they can.

Bari Weiss has no previous professional experience reporting or reporting for broadcast news. This is the email you send when you have no knowledge of the journalism process or product in the org you are hired to run.

Oliver Darcy @oliverdarcy.bsky.social · 18h

News: Bari Weiss just sent a memo to staffers at CBS News asking them to produce a memo explaining "how you spend your working hours—and ideally, what you've made (or are making) that you're most proud of."

One CBS News staffer puts it like this to me: "We just got Elon Musked."
