the reason we're in this mess is because any self-respecting stable democracy would take someone who had explicitly attempted a coup to destroy it and *at least* jail them

Brendan Nyhan @brendannyhan.bsky.social · Nov 6

Sinister to see the former military title of a would-be authoritarian being invoked in a civil trial. These are not the habits of a stable democracy.

dell cameron @dell.bsky.social · Nov 6

Trump’s lawyer referring to him as a military commander in his civil fraud case is truly bizarre

Never forget that Dolly Parton gave a million bucks for covid research at the *very start* of the pandemic—including money that helped fund the development of the Moderna vaccine.

lol the OP's next comment mentions that Brady and Manning had bad seasons outside of their prime....and Brady had one mediocre seaseon to end the career and the Broncos won a superbowl in his Manning's season. (despite manning's being terrible that year/ barely playing much of the season)

Damn. This is amazing. £325 per week, paid monthly, for 3 years - and the result was a profit for the Irish economy:

Post from Threads user rodneyowl: "Ireland has declared the Basic Income for Artists scheme permanent. This will be officially announced in tomorrow’s budget. Details to follow. Congratulations to all who fought for it and the present and future artists of all sorts in Ireland. That includes me 👌We’re just comin to the end of a 3 year pilot scheme. It’s been a roaring success. For every €1 paid out to the 2000 participants, the government got €1.46 back. Can’t argue with that. Other countries are already taking note."
