I’m all over the place as a writer: I've written about the Beatles, cannabis, the Second Amendment, and Indiana Jones (https://teapawt.net/t.co/KATqdp5X2Y).

Dear people citing The Bible:
It’s a cool book with some wonderful passages but it also has ghost sex & giants & super babies & demons. It’s why we don’t make laws based on Game of Thrones, My Little Pony or Legend of Zelda.
My most recent acquisitions: "Detectorists" (I discovered this great UK series last year), "Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny" (my third favorite of the five Indy pics after "Raiders" and "Last Crusade"), and "Duel" (Steven Spielberg's first movie). nytimes.com/2026/10/30/opini…

"The evidence is overwhelming that the base of the Democratic Party that powered last week’s 'blue tsunami' desperately wants a change at the top to lead the Trump resistance going forward." share.inquirer.com/QUeQkP

Good morning and Happy Saturday to everyone who agrees that trump's pick of Stephen Miller as WH Chief of Staff means his brains are mush and he doesn't give a damn because Stephen Miller is just an evil, mean, miserable jackass.
2028 will be LIT.

This contentious interchange between the NY Times and @GinaHinojosaTX was truly amazing. Hinojosa offered one of the best explanations of populism I've ever seen. Her comments were a total rejection of Corporate Dems' neoliberal formula. Her Texas victory is a game changer.
@VerizonSupport I truly hate your new and not-improved forward and rewind options on the TV remote. It's anti-consumer, actually. It used to be that I could rewind only a few seconds to hear something I missed...

...but now you have these segmented increments where I have no choice but to rewind 30–40 seconds. This new method takes away my choice to rewind or go forward as much as I prefer. I no longer have a choice. That's why I say this is an anti-consumer move. Fix this.

There’s no way this poster will go down as well in America 🇺🇸
Might try it anyway 😂
"I've said for decades here that the @nytimes doesn't particularly like the far-right Republicans who rise to the top of the GOP...but it loathes Democrats once they've taken power—and sometimes even when they're merely on the verge of accruing power." nomoremister.blogspot.com/20…

The first five of the 10 Commandments are bullshit. Disrespecting the Christian God (or any god) or one's parents (if they haven't earned your respect) is not wrong, QED sin is just an invented disease to sell a snake oil cure.
