lol @ The Daily Mail PPB terrorized PDX in the summer of 2020! I didn’t even live dt, I lived in the Reed College neighborhood, never went to a protest even tho I was there for all of it, but by the end, even my neighbors & I were ready to riot due to the helicopter noise alone!

Mitch Green: He's The Real Deal

bsky.app/profile/hope... @karenattiah.bsky.social That was a brilliant prompt! That’s why Bezos shouldn’t have 86’d ya, you good at what you do! This had me thinking about life back then; WHAT led to the change. All day I would sit in my posh office alone @ the U in NYC. Top o’ the world; weeping!

I, being a black man who’s entire male line of relatives generally don’t make it to 60, had my midlife crisis @ 35. I gave up my high-powered job as the Admin Coordinator for the Dept of English & Comparative Literature at Columbia U & became a private catering chef. It was great…until COVID!

You’re a yt man? One of the good ones even!😎 I never had to ponder life’s great questions bc i had a bunch of sr brown folk around me telling me “how life is” all the time, me being a yng idealist & pushing back, them shaking their heads, & eventually you shut up bc they keep being proven right.

what is wrong with me I am 56 and still no closer to figuring it out

This has some @bencollins.bsky.social “I wanna buy the Onion. Who up?” energy. lol

Anyone on here know someone on the Ossoff media team? I am back downhome in GA for the next few months, still haven’t lined up a Thanksgiving gig to cater yet, but I can go back into Comms for the next few months, put the dozens of suits, hundreds of ties, & hatred of R’s to use while I’m here!

Wear a mask people! Winter is coming! Covid is already here!

Kendra "Gloom is My Beat" Pierre-Louis@kendrawrites.com · 2d ago

What this paper is saying basically: is the flu is seasonal, covid is not.

bsky.app/profile/hope... Heh I just realized that yeah, without video, this whole thing comes off like some crazy out-of-nowhere screed to everyone on here except the two people I’ve encountered from here in person @lightborn.bsky.social & @golikehellmachine.com 🥸😝 Ossoff @day/Willie @ night?

Democratic strategists: Ahhh! What's the right message!!?? Where do we moderate!?!? Jon Ossoff: This administration is horrible. I hate these people. We should put them in jail. I'm pissed Voters: This guy is cool Strategists: I can't figure it out!!!!!

Tonight’s Appetizer was a crowd pleaser! Cobb Salad! With Humboldt Fog as the Blue Cheese. Oh Georgia and these gosh darn late-summer cherry tomatoes! So sweet & full of so much Obviously, I made the Ranch Dressing, too. 😎

At 18, they thought a white woman fighting for civil rights must be mentally ill. Joan Trumpauer Mulholland was given a psychological evaluation. At 19 she became a Freedom Rider and was imprisoned at Parchman. She later became the first white member of Delta Sigma Theta. #SheShed #VivaHerAlliance

why is this always the most exhausting website lmao

Been thinking about this a lot since I’ve been back in ATL so much this year: are Georgians the best shit-talkers in the United States? I’m always bussing on my foes, even amongst folks that don’t know them, bc “you should always be telling on your haters so folks know” my granny used to tell me!

Jon Ossoff@ossoff.bsky.social · 3d ago

Now the bigot wants a promotion. But this year we’ll end his political career instead.

What are you doing with your midlife existential crisis? No wrong answers. Just trying to see something, as the kids say.

Apropos of the post below…

Christopher Webb@cwebbonline.com · 3d ago

This is why Trump can’t stand Black women. They don’t take his shit. Let’s appreciate Rep. Joyce Beatty for being the fighter we need. Trump: “I think you’re incompetent.” Beatty: “I know you’re incompetent.” Then she reminded him: “You had more bankruptcies than anybody in the room.” 🔥

DC residents/Kennedy nostalgists: YOUR TIME HAS COME! Rush to the the Kennedy Center & surround the building! He’s about to tear it down to own you guys! Prolly best to get out there & stop this! As a special bonus, you’ll make the President look like a tinpot dictator as he rages about it all!

Black folks called it what it is, an "ass-whoopin." 😜😜😜😜😜😜 #blackboymagic #blackboyjoy #blackgaysky #gayblackmen #addtogayblackmen #addtoblackgaymen #addblackgaysky

This is some real Mr Bean-level authoritarian foolishness here. Destroy a memorial to a beloved former President bc its illegal to add your name to it and you can’t even convince your sycophantic personality cult cum political party to change the laws for you! Some “Dictator on Day 1” looser energy!

We’re all thinking the same thing, right? His name rhymes with/ Ban Mongino. He’s a weird right wing chud so i could see him having a sluttier-rapier Michael Vick vibe. I hate to do a brother dirty like this on main but l haven’t been able to stop thinking about him since l heard this news.

Max Kennerly@maxkennerly.bsky.social · 4d ago

After his testimony, there is no doubt that the rule was changed for one specific person that Kash Patel knows personally and he wants to hire (or already hired) and their circumstance is definitely not "trafficking victim."

This man rocking Chalamuppet & Jordan’s harness look 20yrs ago makes him a trendsetter. He & Scott Weiner in the “harness caucus” is the big queer energy American government needs to get back on track!

I mean… (this one’s from 2007) nypost.com/2026/09/13/u...

I just got back to Georgia. Ugh. But it reminds me that since I have no legal middle name, that I’ve always favored one of my heroes’s middle name, Tecumseh. I’ll pop up to Kennesaw National Battlefield Park to see one of Sherman’s Neckties now that I’m thinking about the old General.

This is the dumbest nonsense fanfic I’ve ever encountered (and I’ve been a Star Trek fan my whole life!). Ashamed to have read the wikipedia article for it. Who knew someone could outdo the world’s richest one-trick TERF in bad storytelling? Of course rich pricks believe in this: it’s all bribes!

Faine Greenwood@faineg.com · 4d ago

Also, these people’s central source text, their Bible, is a Harry Potter fanfic, and I am not kidding. These dorkass weirdos are unthinkably wealthy and powerful now. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Harry_P...

Is Tim Scott the dumbest black man in American politics? Stephen A. Smith is definitely THE dumbest famous american black man atm, but i think SC’s senoir senator could give him a run (to Uncle Tom’s Cabin) for his $.

Tim Scott on crypto legislation: "This is a good day for Americans who believe in affordability"

If you think you know why US newspapers died, this feature documentary now streaming for free on PBS might surprise you. It wasn't the Internet. Newspapers were specifically targeted by vulture capitalists. I composed the score for the film, which features electric cello & Crowfoot guitars.

Stripped for Parts: American Journalism on the Brink

A handful of journalists rebel against a hedge fund that is gutting newspapers nationwide.

I’ve noticed a big increase museum layoffs and closures. I suspect ARP money finally getting fully flushed out of state/local budgets, declining federal support, rising prices for everything, declining corporate/foundation support for non-Trump approved history are all contributing. A sad thread:

Holy shit! I never knew this dude was so unattractive!? I hate this website’s political leanings just for this: no one calls an uggo ugly when they deserve it! This guy has been writing columns talking about human relationships for years but he looks like he lives in a cave alone and eats dirt!

New correspondent Ross Douthat says "no story looms larger than the latest developments in artificial intelligence." The technology and its impacts will be a major focus of 60 Minutes reporting.

SPECIAL REPORT Last month, Alpha School invited people to follow student social media accounts "if curious about life in our high schools." I accepted their offer. What I've found shocks me. Forget the AI and ask instead: Is Alpha Schools a cult? Follow along for a summary of my findings.

Took the 11yo niece to see ‘Coyote vs Acme’ today. First film I’ve seen in years 2xs in the theater. Still funny the second time bc I missed SO MANY SIGHT GAGS! The thing I learned this time through: Kids don’t watch Looney Toons anymore?! She knew the names of characters but didn’t know the antics?

First ever Bumbershoot band down: @theebikinikill.bsky.social It was great!

OMG Is the weird guy w/the whiny voice doing on-field patter before LSU/Clemson Pat MacAfee? This is the dude ESPN is paying $60M a year? He sounds horrible and looks like he & Lane Kiffin use the same tanning salon!

he's not dead, there was no special election to avoid, and the people who should be mad at him not being able to do his job are republicans who are down a vote. this whole discourse is ridiculous www.everythingishorrible.net/p/mcconnell-...
