The American Revolution, a six-part, twelve-hours series was supposed to air on PBS in November. Truly hope it makes it to streaming on some platform. Ken Burns can tell historical stories like no other. #HistoryMatters The American Revolution - Ken Burns kenburns.com/films/the-am...
The American Revolution - Ken Burns
The American Revolution was at once a war for independence, a war of conquest, a civil war, and a world war, fought by neighbors on American farms and between global powers an ocean or more away. It i...

It’s fascinating!! Also Aja’s book Stoned
If you haven’t seen it yet, the New York Times really thinks you should watch my documentary about synthetic diamonds. Check it out. Nothing Lasts Forever. www.nytimes.com/2025/07/31/m...

The man literally rented Venice for his wedding. I don’t mean to be a bitch, but I think it’s time to get the guillotine’s out.
Everybody loves to shoot off at the mouth about what heroic shit they would’ve done in Nazi Germany. Well, mein leiblings, whatever you’re doing right now, whatever position you’re taking, that’s exactly who you would’ve been in Nazi Germany.
Please make this happen.

Aja Raden@ajaraden.bsky.social · last yr.Oh you’re too kind! But I’d be happy to talk with @briantylercohen.bsky.social anytime.
No. Shes a grifter. She’s only been a registered Dem for about a year. She just moved to Chicago a 6 months ago to run against an 80-year-old. She’s from Texas & was a Rep until she could get more attention and make more more money being a Progressive. She’s also a Hamas apologist & vile antisemite.
GQ@gqmagazine.bsky.social · last yr.Can @katmabu.bsky.social help Democrats grow a spine? The 26-year-old lefty Internet star is translating her online influence into a campaign that could give the Democrats a jolt they need and revive their chances with voters who want action www.gq.com/story/kat-ab...
Wow. Apparently, China is just gonna burn it all down. I think it was the use of the word peasants. They’ve snapped. If nothing else, this will be interesting.
Aja Raden@ajaraden.bsky.social · last yr.Wait, did anyone really not know that Chinese manufacturers actually make most of our super high-end luxury clothes and accessories? You can get a really nice Chanel bag for $500 instead of $15,000 if you buy it directly from a Chinese supplier.

OK. But Congress doesn’t care; because Congress is also undermining national security.
Ex-Facebook employee to tell Congress the company undermined national security
Sarah Wynn-Williams, a former Facebook employee who alleged misconduct and sexual harassment at the company in a memoir , will testify before Congress Wednesday.

So like, if there was ever any doubt about whether Comrade Krasnov literally worked for the Kremlin… I guess the representatives from “let’s not be ridiculous” can just shut the fuck up now.
hilzoy@hilzoy.bsky.social · last yr."This [an open and dynamic world economy] was a product of US statecraft. Trump has not just brought US protection to levels not seen in a century, but has destroyed everything his predecessors sought to achieve. This is an act of war against the entire world."
I was literally just about to post “man, I would not wanna be trying to resell a Tesla right now“ when I saw this.
Rachel Maddow@maddow.bsky.social · last yr.I worry a lot about Russians, trying to take over the world. And then I remember that, historically speaking, Russians can’t even take over Russia.
So my sister and I were at the grocery store getting some stuff a few hours before the finale of #WhiteLotus and for no particular reason, decided to make piña coladas. We were literally drinking them while we watched the episode. 😂😂😂
Look, every Great Depression has a silver lining: maybe Bill Ackman will end up bankrupt.
I don’t know… I say em cook. We lost the two Florida races, but they went from +30 R to +10 R in 90 days. The longer those cretins are in power the fewer people are willing to vote for them & the more people are motivated to vote against them. Let’s give em a minute or two to really fuck the sofa.
Joyce White Vance@joycewhitevance.bsky.social · last yr.Midterms can’t come soon enough.
I just honestly don’t understand how some people are still alive.
Government abductions are unconstitutional. Denying anyone the right to due process in America is unconstitutional. If you’ve rationalized your silence or support for any of it because it’s happening to those you disagree with, give it a minute… They’ll get to you soon enough.
There’s a non-zero chance that in 2016 when those people at CERN slammed some particles together and made a black hole we all died and that’s exactly where we’ve been this whole time.
God@thegodshow.com · last yr.THEY'RE ALL GOING TO HELL.
Team Leader: Tiger One through Six are you in position Tiger One: All are a go lead Pete Hegseth: God go with you boys Brent: Susan? Tiger Two: Tango is crossing the souk. He has four bodyguards. All appear to be armed. Lots of civilians Team Leader: wait comms are compromised /1
Once again I ask: Do you get it yet, law firms? These orders aren’t isolated threats to Covington or Perkins or Jenner. They’re existential threats to the independence of the legal profession. You’re a fool if you think you won’t be next. Say something. Do something.
Anna Bower@annabower.bsky.social · last yr.NEW: Trump has signed an executive order targeting law firm Jenner & Block… Details of the order TK
It would appear I personally altered the diamond market on a global scale. Good for me. www.forbes.com/sites/garthf...
Lab-Grown Diamonds Boom: Is It Game Over For Mined Diamonds?
Lab-grown diamonds are chemically identical to mined diamonds, yet sell for just 10% of the price. What does that mean for the future of mined diamonds?

I feel like such a hopeless loser. Like I suck at everything. And then I remember that Pete Hegseth got drunk & decided to execute a war in Yemen & arranged the whole thing over an illegal Signal group chat that accidentally included the editor in chief of The Atlantic.
