On a bicycling trip in northern Vermont we found this vinyl in an antiques barn of all places. I got the #jazz and she got #thepogues. Luckily, she likes jazz and I like The Pogues. #LamoilleValley

Trump allegedly just won his 43rd Club Championship today at one of his courses.
How many weekends has he done this? He is pumping and dumping around the opening and closing of the stock market and playing with Iranians like this is some sort of video game. People are dying, this is no game and he is an idiot and no leader.
From a nursing group I'm in. People won't get vaccines which have been rigorously tested, but they will take unregulated supplements and peptides. We are truly living in the movie Idiocracy
This was much more polite than my response back to a Bruce Blakeman fundraiser email. @pkryan.bsky.social
I blocked a couple people today for scolding me for asking that Beshear apply more pressure to the McConnell “mystery.” Their profile history indicates that they are fond of scolding “Leftists.” I don’t consider myself a leftist. I’m antifascist and sick and tired of the oligarchy fucking with…all.
Bordeaux, France, has now recorded more days above 40°C in 2026 alone than during the entire 105-year period from 1920 (when observations began) to 2025. This is deeply shocking.
The relentless harassment of Fauci is a national disgrace and represents the expression of the viciously anti-knowledge culture that has become a national brand.
They could not look guiltier if they tried. If Mitch is dead/incapacitated, These people should be in prison for fraud/racketeering. They’re defrauding the people of Kentucky for their salaries at the VERY least. @govandybeshear.bsky.social #MissingMitchMcconnell
Sonny Rollins sneaks in there right at the end. 🫡 #jazzsky
Here are some of the songs I've been listening to this summer. It starts with a song Michelle and I love by Glen Hansard, a great musician who passed tragically this week. Our hearts go out to his family.
This whole hearing is an exercise in performative dipshittery. From Moreno swearing at Fauci so he can use it in fundraising clips, to idiots like Johnson just making random shit up, this is a bankrupt party that’s not even trying to govern.
Ron Johnson claims the the "injection injured" are committing mass suicide
I sent a message through his website: You are a despicable excuse for a human being and an all around scumbag.
Moreno cursed at an 85 year old for staying silent on his lawyer's advice, then blamed him for local cops arresting a family at a football game. #Fauci spent 50 years saving lives, including 25 million through PEPFAR. Moreno spent his hearing chasing a Fox News clip. www.mediaite.com/media/tv/who...
I don't say this as often as I used to, so let's get it out there one more time: your new Tesla makes me vsicerally angry. It wasn't a good deal, and it's not the best EV you can buy, you're just as stupid and poorly-informed as you are amoral. I hope bad things happen to it and you.
DNC, DSA and anything in between, do not let this get memory-holed.
Don’t let this clip get memory-holed
Three reasons why you should be very careful about who gets glamorized on MSNOW/MSNBC: John Fetterman, Michael Avenatti, Michael Cohen. #fraudsters #starpower #MSNOW
What did everyone expect to happen? Fool me…so many times.
When fanatics lose their faith, it starts gradually and then suddenly all at once.
Update from Ukraine.
My statement on the United States administration’s intention to impose new tariffs on Canadian goods:
I’ve received photographic evidence from friends visiting Montreal with their grandson that they are safely ensconced in Montreal and weren’t sent to work camps to rake the boreal forest. Canada, unlike its southern neighbor, still treats visitors with respect. #wildfires #Canada #hospitality
Sometimes, the NYT editors, full of haughty and disdainful parameters, allow something like this to slip through, um, the cracks, when referring to cyclospora: “Today’s town chatter centers on the humbling concerns playing out in tile-floored household sanctuaries and public bathroom stalls.”
