I'm here to do two things: read lawsky posts and like Blacksky posts. No need to follow me back.

I'm sort of a lurker. If I follow you and I don't know you, I'd almost prefer it if you don't follow back. I'm doing fine over here on my own ✌️

1. Why is there a long description of black holes in your book about sexting an anti-vaxxer.

2. That is not what Hawking radiation is.

That's a win for the press. RFK abused that relationship to gain a foothold for his grifting, and he needs to go, too. At least the press has shame enough left to do the right thing; politics does not, sadly.

No one lives forever but ugh 2025 really didn't have to go out like this 😭 Here's to a legend.

I like the Bulwark. I don’t like the Bulwark indulging in this masturbatory bullshit. Stop participating in a corrupt asshole’s rehabilitation grift.

Ok so now I've lost all hope in new media. All of you journalists are awful. None is better than the worst of you.

In this case, Tim Miller is the lowest bar, because he knows his friend's credibility is shot and tries to rehabilitate her as a journalist & source! Nice work, @thebulwark.com.

You can tell just how detached from humanity the rich are becoming by how distorted their faces are becoming. Anyway, here's some unrelated news.

I'm lucky to say that (a) one of my dearest friends has been living with HIV for decades and (b) I know a leading HIV researcher who's working on a cure (no thanks to RFKjr). #WorldAIDSDay is always a marker of hope for me.

Way back in 2008, Al Davis (!) gave a 45-minute press conference in which he detailed all the ways Lane Kiffin was a “professional liar” and con man. Do people not remember what happened at Tennessee? This is who he is! Weasel DNA! www.espn.com/nfl/news/sto...

Oh this is terrible. Horrible. So help me, I am going to dust off my dissertation in metaphor theory and write an encyclopedic tome about the structure, history, and implications of WEALTH-is-ENLIGHTENMENT, which is a concept more central to the US than almost any other concept right now.
No value, no villain, no vision. Sounds like the tagline for the earnings call of a collapsing appliance retailer

These fissures are becoming more visible. Honestly, I think the location data from Twitter jostled some of these folks back to a bit of reality.
Indiana Senate Republican Greg Walker “said he would have reported the alleged violation to federal authorities “if I thought that there was anyone of integrity in Washington that would follow through on my accusation ..”

Isn't there an international warrant out for the arrest of George W Bush? Let's be sure not to forget. Cheney can be tried posthumously.

Had Thanksgiving with Mom in memory care for the first time. I'm feeling thankful for caregivers who are kind, patient, and experienced. Also grateful that Mom has both a pension and social security. Without that, things would be much more stressful.

This is narcissism masquerading as philosophy — the technophile elite are not recognizing a new soul in AI, they're falling in love with their creation, staring at their own reflection in a digital pool.

It is the ultimate in solipsism and has its roots in a pathological fear and denial of death.
