Can't wait to see Carol Goodman talk about OUR MARRIAGE IS MURDER tonight at Oblong Books! Then I get to read it on the train home. Perfect!
Robin Agnew@robinagnew.bsky.social · 4w agoauntagathas.com/aa/carol-goo... This blast of a read from Carol Goodman is out today - run, don't walk, to your local bookstore for a copy. P.S. If you are in Rheinbeck, NY, I see Carol and the fab Tara Laskowski will be at Oblong Books tonight at 6.
I spoke with Mitch McConnell for 20 minutes this morning and he said it’s very hot but that Ronald Reagan says hi
"I have accepted Keir Starmer's resignation as my chief servant and have invited Andy Burnham to lay out details for how many meals a day he'll give me"
In hindsight it just took the Knicks three quarters to get all the Trump stink out of the building
I say without hyperbole that this is the most brazenly corrupt action in US Presidential history. That it does not immediately lead to impeachment is a dangerous sign of how far the rule of law has declined.
Does make Hunter seem like awfully small potatoes.
Chris Murphy@chrismurphyct.bsky.social · 3mo agoAmerica's chief Middle East negotiator - Jared Kushner - is almost completely dependent on Middle East government investment in his chief business. It's probably the biggest conflict of interest in American diplomatic history and we should be talking about this way more.
Other leaders who have compared themselves to Christ: Jim Jones and Charles Manson. Have we had enough yet, America?
Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com · 4mo agoI’m not sure it has broken through to the general public that the president is a megalomaniac crazy person. Hopefully posts like this help.
In an age of creeping relativism, a universal moral law still exists. Threatening to end an entire civilization of 90 million people in order to bend a nation’s conduct to your will is grossly morally wrong. It is evil. And we should say this loudly.
The actual headline here is "President Declares Medicare a Scam." 60% of his voters are 50 and older. I wonder how that lands. www.thedailybeast.com/trump-admits...
Trump Brags He’s Spending Big on War Instead of Basic Needs
“We have to take care of one thing: military protection,” the 79-year-old said.

Rob Osler Writer@roboslerwriter.bsky.social · 5mo agoI'm delighted to be in NYC! Today, I met with my wonderful @kensingtonbooks.bsky.social editor John Scognamiglio at Kensington's midtown offices. Next stop: tomorrow at 6 pm. with author pal @mariahfredericks.bsky.social at @mysteriousbookshop.com in lower Manhattan.
There's something deeply obscene and broken about the fact that Donald Trump and Pete Hegseth are bombing elementary schools in an illegal war of aggression, and there's still a sense among the opposition that it has to be explained in terms of gas prices in order to get American voters to care.

What's happening with Jimmy Kimmel is about politics and power.
Thrilled with this review for THE GIRL IN THE GREEN DRESS from @publisherswkly.bsky.social. Also, that they chose to highlight the gorgeous cover.
Publishers Weekly@publisherswkly.bsky.social · last yr.★ Mariah Fredericks brilliantly evokes 1920s New York City in this riveting standalone inspired by the unsolved murder of gambler and womanizer Joseph Elwell. Add in an enthralling investigation and a complex, fame-hungry lead, and it’s undeniable: Fredericks has struck gold.
You know how everyone now says they were always against the Iraq war when most people were for it? Let’s just skip the step of going to war with Iran, because one day everyone will say how they were always against it… except the weirdos, who just love bloodshed and bombs.
Win Without War@winwithoutwar.bsky.social · last yr.People across the country agree: No War with Iran
Thrilled that the child is home from college. Less thrilled that every charge cord in the house has disappeared.
"Vladimir, stop!" Oh, how the pussy grabbers have fallen.

First item on today's to do list: Set up autopsy. Oh—no, that's autopay. (Bad handwriting and writing mysteries for a living.)
A small bit of good news. But there are others who should be released as well.
The New York Times@nytimes.com · last yr.Three children and their mother have been released from federal custody after being detained by immigration enforcement agents last month at an upstate New York dairy farm.
Whole lotta people gripping themselves today and weeping Why, why?

I hate when you come to that point in the outline where you wrote "Various hilarious mishaps ensue," but failed to disclose what those mishaps might be. Bad show, outline self.
