Running against “…this whole coterie of the dumbest people…” 🏆 💙 🗳️ Trump fixates on calling other people dumb, low-IQ, etc and it’s partly sexism and racism but he mostly has his name-calling outbursts when he is too dumb to keep up with a grown up conversation
I’ve waited ten years for someone to say this about Donald Trump.

went to visit a friend who’s a ceramicist and works in a studio with no phone signal in a tiny yorkshire village. he doesn’t listen to podcasts or music, only occasionally uses the radio, and when I asked him what he thinks about all day he just said “well, pots mostly”

How sad is it that a statement as benign as 'I'd like lower costs of living' is cringe for Fox News.

Elon Musk found us here. We’re indigenous to this land.
If people dislike Elon Musk so much, why do they still use the platform he owns?

I did not dream of a wedding as a young girl I’ve always wanted to be a detective in a small town where something’s not right

They broke Eisenhower’s globe because they didn’t want to wait for a team of specialist historians to move it. I cannot think of a more apt metaphor for Pete Hegseth’s DoD.
EXCLUSIVE: Pete Hegseth wanted Gen. Dwight Eisenhower’s globe for his office. His staff broke it. We have photos.

Our library is having a short story contest for Halloween 🎃 The entry date is tomorrow and I challenged @John_Counts that we both write one but I only have 3/4 of a story, a half-assed plan and a headache. Can I get it done?? Wish me treats not tricks and some extra energy today

Humans build cities. Cities birth department stores. Humans build suburbs. Dept. stores build shopping malls. Downtown dept. stores die. Humans invent online shopping. COVID. Malls die. Replaced by Amazon hubs. Is this chess or checkers? What comes next?

For the first time in @metrotimes history, we’re no longer seeking comment from a candidate’s campaign because of repeated lies and bigoted attacks. That candidate is Mike Rogers, whose campaign keeps targeting Abdul El-Sayed’s Muslim faith. metrotimes.com/news/mike-rog…
