It's been a long, L O N G time since that descent down the damn escalator in that damn so-called tower. If someone ever invents a time machine ...

Apart from helping Comey's selective prosecution defense, this also means the president of the United States uses direct messages on Truth Social to communicate with cabinet officials.

I didn't know that, but we can be sure intelligence agencies all over the planet already did.

Country fans are upset with Zach Bryan after he criticized ICE in a song.

But don't let it be known that Willie Nelson, Waylon Jennings, Kris Kristofferson, and Johnny Cash all despised fascism and leaned heavily to the left.

If ANY other president had been caught DMing directives for the Attorney General to indict his political enemies it would have been game over.
Impeached. Removed.

But not Trump.
With Donald Trump, it’s just another fucking day ending in Y.

The smell of diesel fumes on a chilly, foggy morning in London in the late 1970s.

Also, horse manure. 🤷🏼

Tressie McMillan Cottom @tressiemcphd.bsky.social · 2d

At least once a week now for going on 35 years, yes. One of the greatest smells ever produced. Second, maybe, to the school bus gas fumes. I won’t be debating this.

Polly-O @polly-o.bsky.social · 2d

Anyone remember the smell of mimeograph machines?

Is there a way to add potatoes to that list?

Why bother pretending he's going to even see a doctor, much less a doctor who would tell the truth?

TV host and painter Bob Ross has 30 original paintings going up for auction. All profits will go to US public TV and radio stations.

This comes after Congress cut funding in support of public broadcasting.

Holy crap, y’all. mRNA tech not only cures (some) cancer. It might cure (some) vision loss. What’s next? Weight loss? Gray hair? Abolishing reality TV?

Golden Age of Science right now. And some folks want to kill it stone dead.

Chise @sailorrooscout.bsky.social · 2d

GOOD NEWS! Researchers have developed a new mRNA vaccine that has been shown to suppress abnormal blood vessel growth in the retina, offering hope to MILLIONS of patients with age-related vision loss. The vaccine triggered strong antibody responses that REDUCED retinal damage by UP TO 85%.

Does 'abandoned' mean no electricity or hot water? If so, then no. Also, may I read on my Kindle?

Hear What Shakespeare Sounded Like in the Original Pronunciation

What did Shakespeare’s English sound like to Shakespeare? To his audience? And how can we know such a thing as the phonetic character of the language spoken 400 years ago?

The White House Antifa Roundtable is one of the best displays I’ve seen of this-is-how-bad-it’s-gotten — just a sewer of open fascism, dementia, morons and freaks, and incoherent rage.
