81 yo retired teacher. Ham radio operator. Computer tech. Poetry, history, music, photography. Atheist, liberal, straight, widowed, living alone, neither a veteran nor a draft dodger. Remembers when America was great, and we ain’t headed back there.

Does anyone else have problems with Bluesky videos NOT PLAYING, especially the first time you see them. Spinning circle forever, then later in the day, see them playing on someone else’s repost- when you are no longer interested in the video? Asking for a friend who feels it can be fixed.

Watch Tesla self-driving v14.3.6 drive straight toward a curb at 40mph, forcing the driver to swerve to avoid crashing into it! Elon Musk's self-driving software is riddled with critical safety defects and must be banned immediately.

Susan Collins announcing she'll vote against a controversial nominee is basically the moment it becomes clear that nominee will be confirmed. It means Thune has enough votes to confirm, and thus, Collins gets a pass to look independent.

Booker: "Ghislaine Maxwell is sitting in the lowest possible confinement after giving no information that helped us get one more investigation started and has been silent, and the man responsible for that we're about to make the attorney general of the US ... this is farcical."

BREAKING: I just offered an amendment on the floor to give Veterans fired in the Trump-Musk layoffs their jobs back. Every single Republican blocked it. Shame on them for betraying our heroes.

😱😱😱 And just like that, it’s completely VANISHED from the media. A sitting congressman, Ted Lieu, said on the record the Epstein files are being blocked because they show Trump raped and threatened to kill children. Lets make this viral again 👇

We only rate dogs. This is a baby kangaroo, as you can tell by the kickstart button on her foot. Please only send dogs. Thank you... 12/10 (TT: supernoodlegirls)

Global warming is real and we need to fight it. But climate data is starting to look like NBA stats: combine enough variables and there’s always a new “record” or “first ever.” Data matters. Not every possible combination of data does. Fear-driven statistics don’t bring solutions.

The President of the United States repeatedly lying about American citizens and trying to lock them up in a pathetic attempt to cover up a botched renovation of the Reflection Pool that wasted millions of taxpayer dollars should be a much bigger story in the news.

Gill: All 100 senators last week passed a non-binding resolution condemning any pardon for Ghislaine Maxwell. They're simultaneously considering confirming the guy who met with her and moved her to a low-security facility as the top cop in the United States. That is so insane to me.
