Dad, IT guy, scruffy looking, reader of SciFi, very random, all opinions my own. Not that my employer would notice. EDIT

Bummer. Heard it was down and logged in to see. No such luck.

@doctorow Like science fiction novels, American policies often function better as warning than instruction manual.

There is ample research to suggest that standardized testing actually measures, as researcher Christoper Tienken put it, “the family and community capital of the student.” Tienken uses a demographic profile of a community to predict a school’s test scores.

@StephenOmar81 @RadioFreeTom It would be good, overall, to spend more time explaining what really happened with a lot of different buckets of money. I think we as a nation have a lot of magical thinking attached to the Presidency and its powers.

@Noahpinion I was just waiting for that Steinbeck quote.

@Ronin72 @EpiEllie How long have you got for the list? Start with brucellosis and keep searching from there.

@bobsalpha1 @RadioFreeTom Maybe they meant their commitment was transparent, as in not able to be seen.

@MaxBoot Trump just can’t stand anyone around him who is clearly better than he is in every way.

[Ldrberi. Bsky @BabeuIain]

@RadioFreeTom I was wondering if it would be Paxton. He’s definitely slicker and more dangerous than Gaetz, but probably has enough of his own agenda Trump prefers a complete lackey.

[Ldrberi. Bsky @BabeuIain]

@RadioFreeTom I think Gaetz is sufficiently unprincipled Trump genuinely wants him to run the department of, “…for my enemies, the law.”

[Ldrberi. Bsky @BabeuIain]

@JessRabid @RachelBitecofer I’ll believe it when I see it.

[Ldrberi. Bsky @BabeuIain]

@RadioFreeTom Im not shocked, but isn’t he sort of a giant liability?

[Ldrberi. Bsky @BabeuIain]

@Cling2Reality That’s someone desperately hoping a Senate confirmation hearing won’t result in Matt Gaetz earning the nickname “wannabe Epstein.”

[Ldrberi. Bsky @BabeuIain]

@RachelBitecofer @ezraklein Trump is celebrated because he knows that, “a lie can run around the world before the Truth has put its boots on.”

[Jon “Bowzer” Bauman @JonBowzerBauman]

Trump spending the next two years taking credit for the Biden economy really will be disgusting.

@RadioFreeTom This tweet is still relevant to this day.

[Jesse McLaren @McJesse]

“Young men need a space where they can act traditionally masculine.”

Mosh pits.

“And express their emotions in a healthy way.”

Mosh pits.

“Where they can find community.”

Mosh pits.

“Somewhere they can gain a basic understanding of consent.”

@joshtpm Remember, “this election means Bush has a mandate to completely privatize social security!” ?

He did not, and was not able to.
