People forget Trump has a degree in economics from Wharton. He probably knows the science.
Mike Johnson: One of the things the president probably had not thought through is when you bring interest rates down to 10% the problem is that the credit card companies would just stop lending money

People got mad at me because I said TV is a debased medium, with very little of quality to actually recommend it. Looking back, I can understand their frustration, particularly if they’ve wasted a lot of time watching television or—god forbid—making it.
What’s the funniest reason someone got mad at you on Bluesky this year?

Very sad to say it seems Mike Fossey, aka Mike F. has died. Truly one of the funniest posters of all time and a talented artisan. Had been friends online for many years, but I got to hang out a couple times at shows in Boston and he was funny and sweet in real life too.

Tomorrow buy one gift you think Jesus would like, like a Switch 2, and put it near your bed. If he doesn't take it while you sleep, he wants you to have it. ❤️

Sad to hear Mamdani is losing. He's young though and has a bright future ahead of him.
