I live in a fucking desert that is facing the collapse of the Colorado River Compact. I don’t give a shit about “good faith”, data centers don’t belong here.
Jeremy Diamond ☕️@dmnd.me · 16h agoStarting to see "they don't deserve good faith" reactions to this and the problem I have with that is we have examples of actual good faith negotiations that landed tens of millions of investment into local communities and, in at least one instance, residents responded by voting everyone out.
Do I know anyone in Utah who would take a trained, indoor tuxedo cat who has been lived (owner entering hospice)? Female adult tuxedo cat, tender bean in need of care.
If you've ever had a toddler with a stuffed animal he or she adores beyond all reason, you know that this is straight-up psychological torture. Of a child. For leverage
Abby Vesoulis@abbyvesoulis.bsky.social · 4h agoNEW: Regarding the claims that Rep. Max Miller withheld his toddler's "blue bunny," I have some new screenshots suggesting there was a pattern of Miller not giving the bunny back. There were pleas from multiple people on multiple dates. (Thread: 1/8)

David Ho@davidho.bsky.social · 8h agoThe Trump regime admitted in court filings that the cancellation of clean energy grants for Hawaiʻi was because the state voted for Kamala Harris in the 2024 presidential election, rather than the previously stated reasons of advancing energy needs or economic viability.
TIL Irene Ryan (Granny from The Beverly Hillbillies) was born in San Francisco! Within a year or so of my own Granny… Watching #TheWomanOnTheBeach, recorded earlier today on #TCMParty for today‘s #SummerUnderTheStars #JoanBennett programming.
We all figured this was his goal, but to have finally spelled out… More graft, more corruption, more looting the treasury.
Liz Dye@lizdye.bsky.social · 6h agoNYT says Trump is going to take the Qatari bribe jet AND one of the old Air Force Ones when he leaves office. He can put the broken down old one in his presidential library and do what he likes with the new one we just paid billions of tax dollars to retrofit. www.nytimes.com/2026/08/05/u...
All Right, Mississippi Free Press. Good for you and good for these college students and this nonprofit.
Ashton Pittman@ashtonpittman.bsky.social · 9h agoDays after Nick Judin reported that Mississippi had suddenly denied scholarships to 170 Mississippi foster students, a nonprofit has pledged $800k and colleges are working to ensure their education isn't disrupted. Lawmakers are also vowing to fix it. This is what impactful journalism looks like.

Nato to ‘urgently’ get air defences for Ukraine, as Zelenskyy warns of surge in Russian missile production
Nato to ‘urgently’ get air defences for Ukraine, as Zelenskyy warns of surge in Russian missile production
After Ukraine failed to shoot down a single ballistic missile fired by Russia on Wednesday, the president urged allies to increase supplies of Patriot interceptors Nato is working to get Ukraine the air defences it “urgently needs”, its secretary general has said, after Kyiv failed to shoot down a single Russian missile in an attack on Wednesday, and as Volodymyr Zelenskyy warned that Moscow was seeking to significantly boost missile production ahead of winter. Speaking at a National Security and Defense Council meeting on winter resilience, the Ukrainian president did not rule out the idea that stalling missile supplies from western allies were “aimed at making Ukraine, so to speak, more willing to compromise” in peace talks with Russia.

Every time an elected Republican is interviewed, they should be asked about this. And honestly? Go there. Ask, “Why are you so comfortable with Miller’s “private behavior“? Is it because you have engaged in similar behavior? Or that you believe a man has the right to do that to a woman & a child?”
Florida Chris@chrislongview.bsky.social · 7h agothe funny thing is from now on, every time he talks about beating his wife and fucking up his little kid, there will be a process where the media asks republicans what they think about their colleague breaking his own kid's bones.
If you read memoirs of great military leaders, you know that a surefire way to instill loyalty among your troops is to throw your deputy under the bus for your own screwups.
Carl Quintanilla@carlquintanilla.bsky.social · 8h agoThree-byline alert: 🚨 “.. Trump’s frustration over the Iran war boiled over at Camp David last week, where he demanded answers from Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth on why he had apparently been misled on extreme munitions shortages ..” @washingtonpost.com www.washingtonpost.com/national-sec...
Enjoyed this Esquire feature on the Churchwell brothers. IMO, they are among the last elegantly dressed men in the United States. Notably, neither are "fashion influencers." They are both distinguished cardiologists with great taste and a lifetime relationship with the same tailor.
I do appreciate that the TCM schedulers put Joan Bennett and Diane Keaton on back-to-back days so the originals and the remakes of the Father of the Bride movies are on within twelve hours of one another! #TCMParty #SummerUnderTheStars #JoanBennett #DianeKeaton

Please for the love of God, stop telling me about Pinochet’s death flights and suggesting ICE is doing them. 1) The doors on the charter jets ICE uses cannot be opened midflight. It is physically impossible. 2) Even if depressurized, the door would fly off and/or bodies get sucked into engines
Every military leader since antiquity: wars are won by logistics hegseth: you win wars when military look like fitness influencers
I'm legit obsessed with Trump's effort to distract from his own corruption by having Scott Brady, who helped criminally frame Joe and Hunter Biden, claim to care about fraud. Here's the meeting they had today.
So Gerald is pro-Hitler? #ManHunt #TCMParty #TheNoirCollective
A few bars of A Nightingale Sang in Berkeley Square, just to establish we really are in London…and that we’re supposed to presume a romance is in the offing? #ManHunt #TCMParty #TheNoirCollective
Was the comment about Thorndike having a property in Canada a nod to Walter Pidgeon’s birthplace? #ManHunt #TCMParty #NoirCollective #SUTS
On the one hand, there have been near-weekly stories abt munitions shortages since weeks b4 war started, so Trump is lying that he wasn't warned. On the other hand, Whiskey Pete refuses to answer Congress abt it in hearings Trump watches, so he earned this. www.washingtonpost.com/national-sec...
