Most of my career was focused on overpaid CEOs/Income Inequality. Just started a new job w a local Aging in Place program. I tweet social justice, aging, bargains, books, politics, gardens, adoption, humor, hope. Always curious.

Frankly, I think he should be shipped to Portland.

Close to visitors (for now, at least). Animals will still be cared for

If I lived in Portland I’d be filming daily videos of the reality there and sending them to every single person in my contacts.

I like how the news will be like “while the President claiming Portland was ruled by a giant skeleton named Mr Nibbles is not strictly true, it does speak to the anxiety of many Americans”

My son gots an inflatable dinosaur suit at Target once & wore it all day during "Spirit Week" at high school. Earlier in the term he'd been turned back at the door for uniform infractions.

I've had more people than this view the 100 Most Overpaid CEOs webinar.

Bari Weiss’s first project for CBS brought in a phenomenal 145 viewers. Love this for her.

Are you putting this down as a timing marker? You should know by now that being prescient does nothing to improve your reputation in the times we are living in.

I can't believe that on top of everything else we are expected to deal with falling temperatures this year.

I memorized only a phrase from this poem. Had no idea that Ezra Pound wrote it until I googled: www.goodreads.com/quotes/79526...

A quote by Ezra Pound

Winter is icummen in,Lhude sing Goddamm,Raineth drop and staineth slopAnd how the wind doth ramm!Sing: Goddamm.Skiddeth bus and sloppeth us,An ague...

Thanks for sharing. I read this last night.

This season has truly jumped the shark.

And yes, I'm old enough to remember the shark.

sometimes it feels a bit on the nose that the very people wearing masks right now are often the same people who refused to wear one in 2020.

try to be more subtle, writers of the America show!!!!

I'm sorry but it's just wild we are in the middle of a government shutdown and the House Republicans are REFUSING TO SHOW UP FOR WORK so they can protect billionaire pedophiles and billionaire tax breaks.

I work w an organization called Hyattsvile Aging in Place. Once sent a message that read: "Still high. Aging in place."

So many obvious signs of a severely aging brain. Wisdom applies humor, humility and self-awareness to that situation. Some people get old but never get wise.

Really enjoying and would highly recommend @ballgirl.bsky.social "Make Me Commissioner." She's right about everything.

Underrated part of this story is that official USG business is done by Truth Social DM. It almost makes you miss the good old days of the PC small group Signal Chat.

WSJ is reporting that the Truth Social post where Trump told Pam Bondi to prosecute Comey *really was supposed to be a private message*

The president has executed a wholesale transformation of the Justice Department, taking control in ways he could have only dreamed of in his first term.

Actually, I think it would be dreadful to be a freelance writer multimillionaire. All your friends would ask you for money and you would probably never write again.
