Iconoclastic, curmudgeonly, often polemical. Always seeking to thread the needle between cautious optimism and cynical disillusionment.

@NyxNox14 @TheMcKenziest I mean, it probably protected against a concussion from that drop kick, at least...

Dems should dust off this bad boy.

@cinnotomon I had a headache the entire day. But this time I refused to let whatever ridiculous anxiety was screwing me over, and got my license that day.

Still have a small scar there, though, more than 25 years later.

@cinnotomon 2 weeks after that, sometime around 4am, several hours before my 3rd attempt is scheduled, I'm awakened by shattering pain in my head - I have somehow managed to headbutt the bureau beside my bed, cracking my left eyebrow RIGHT on a hardwood corner hard enough to bleed. A lot.

Being told this is an actual release from the Harris campaign.

I'm a registered Democrat in Texas. After seeing several other posts, I checked my registration. I'm "suspended." It says I can still vote if I update my information (it's already correct) but this has never happened in my 20 years of voting in Texas. Check your registration.

BREAKING: The Kamala Harris campaign is resurrecting this video of then Senator Harris demolishing Bill Barr during her cross examination. Retweet so all Americans see this and know Kamala Harris is going to prosecute Donald Trump with the same passion

@el_sabawi @QueenMab87 In turn, by omitting her titles - earned through a long and distinguished career that puts those of every GOP Speaker of the last 30 years to shame - the right-wing media machine demonstrates how intimidating they find Nancy Pelosi's effectiveness and record of success.

[Taellosse @taellosse]

@el_sabawi @QueenMab87 And, by the same token, is very telling about their real thinking towards the target - by misnaming the Democratic Party, they reveal how anxious they are to divert attention from how much the rely on undemocratic rules to retain power.

Elon Musk deleted this.

You know what to do.

Um, she's not the one with 7 corporate bankruptcies, a failed airline, a failed magazine, a failed scam university, three failed casinos, a failed pandemic response, the worst jobs record of any U.S. president, two impeachments, and 34 criminal convictions, but ok.

@Brian_in_AK @ThatEricAlper However, since Mark Kelly actually had to send it twice (the 1st was lost in 2015 when the unmanned shuttle carrying it blew up, so he had to send another), it presumably had a net price tag of around $78,260

@Brian_in_AK @ThatEricAlper Well, according to Business Insider, a bit less than $40k.
