I think I'm following everyone from here on Bluesky. Goodbye forever, Twitter!

As I said, I'm deleting this trash app later. My plan is to look for each of you over there because you're all cool people I want to be around IRL. But if you're not there yet, look me up when you come!

Just a heads up that I'll probably be deleting Twitter and moving to Blue Sky entirely. You're all wonderful people, but this site's only salvation was maybe it would be better after the election. It clearly won't.

I wish BallotTrax would tell you what number your ballot was counted. Mine was counted on the 10th, I wanna know if I was in the first thousand or something!

She needs to win to keep the country on track. But also the fact that dumb idiots will lose millions of dollars when she does should motivate us all as well. You get to do the right and good thing AND the spiteful thing all in one!
Election day: late whale action is heavily favoring Trump. Trump bettors are feeling very confident. Overly so? TBD. On Polymarket, a $10m bet from a new account pushes Trump to 62% & on Betfair there's a £2.4m bid on Trump at 60% Kalshi is 58% and PredictIt at 55%. gl y'all

It’s Election Day. Please remember to vote. And if you’re privileged enough to think that none of these issues impact you, please consider how they impact your family, your friends, your neighbors, their loved ones and anyone else for whom you can spare a moment of empathy.🇺🇸

Republicans, what you forgot about Faustian bargains with Mephistopheles is that not only he takes your soul, he doesn’t deliver. Donald Trump won one race with 46.1% and you folded on every value you claimed to believe. You deserve this.

Leave no doubt.
I want to see @KamalaHarris win red states no media is paying attention to. I want an historic landslide driven by women across the country turning out to the degree we’ve never seen before. I want it to be unmistakably clear that we are never living in a man’s world ever again.

Ashamed to admit I read "a century ago" and scoffed--a century ago was the 1800s! The march of time is a real son of a bitch. Also a son of a bitch? Dormald Tormp. Vote blue.
A century ago, Germany’s democracy was hijacked by a bombastic and charismatic tyrant — and in this five-minute video, you’ll learn how he did it. Why did I produce this? Because I believe that history is speaking to us, and all too often, those who refuse to learn from it are doomed to repeat it. As you watch, imagine filling out a Bingo card filled with Germany 1933/USA 2024 parallels: big rallies, rage-filled and hateful rhetoric, simple answers promising quick and easy solutions to complicated problems, empty promises of a great-again future, scapegoating outsiders, and political enemies silenced on day one. And notice the caring wisdom and concern from my German friends as they share these lessons from their dark history. It’s hard to understand how Trump could, on the eve of a tight election, paint a picture of Liz Cheney before a firing squad by actually saying, “Let’s put her with a rifle standing there with nine barrels shooting at her, OK? And let’s see how she feels about it when the guns are trained on her face.” You can’t get into the mind of a dictator with an insatiable appetite for power — but you can recognize the playbook they all seem to follow. Just watch this clip. It’s excerpted from my hourlong public television special “The Story of Fascism in Europe,” which is streaming free (and ad-free) at ricksteves.com/fascism. If you care about our democracy and love our country, it’s hard to stop watching. When I produced this in 2018, I hoped this day would never come in our country. But November 5th is upon us. Please share this with anyone in your life who might need a reminder that the stakes are high...and this is very real.

This is why all those papers closing is such a tragedy. Look at all the effort good journalism takes, national papers won't go this deep on a local matter!
It took about four weeks to accurately report this out. Let me take you through the legwork needed to find and confirm that Lee Sheriff Carmine Marceno signed a contract with someone using a fake name. A 🧵

I have found the greatest license plate. This is it. Pack it in folks. It cannot get better only worse.

There's a long overdue conversation to be had about online " activism" that's really just undiagnosed mental illness.

Lukewarm on the Dodgers, but always happy when a California team wins something. Ecstatic for Shohei Ohtani, though!

Apropos of nothing I think it's important to say fuck Jacob Wohl every now and again just so I don't forget he exists.

I love California but sometimes Californians get on my last nerve. "I voted no on everything but 36 because it's expensive enough living here and crime is bad." Congrats on voting for fewer services and fuller for-profit prisons, that'll keep California golden 😾

When you close your stump speech by literally saying, “I’m not Hitler” and you aren’t running against Hitler it feels like there might be a problem.

Made Maga mad by saying that Biden didn't call them garbage, but they are. Oh well. Locking down the account for a couple weeks.

Scoring for the Sharks is expected to be so low this year that the in-arena giveaway was reduced from 4 to 3 goals for tacos.
Happy Taco Tuesday🌮! All fans in attendance get three free tacos. Visit your local Taco Bell and #LiveMas!

The great thing about having turned in my ballot week before last is that now I can fret and be anxious with a clear conscience!
