I wonder if @PlanetFitness knows it's in violation of the FTC's "click-to-cancel" rule? ftc.gov/news-events/ne…

I can't do this anymore. I just can't. cbsnews.com/news/trump-doc…

This is what's called "burying the lede."

When I cast my vote for President Biden, I wasn't expecting much. I just wanted trump out of office. I knew he was old. I knew he had a stutter. I knew he had a rep for "gaffes." I didn't care. Just wanted trump gone. Four years later, things are different. I wasn't expecting that President Biden would be the most legislatively successful President in my lifetime. I wasn't expecting him to help expand NATO. I wasn't expecting him to lower insulin & inhalers. I wasn't expecting him to create & recover 15m jobs. I wasn't expecting him to bring manufacturing back. I wasn't expecting him to forgive student debt. But he did ALL those things, and more. He surpassed my expectations by a lot. And he has more planned for 2025-2028. He's not a master orator, He doesn't move so smoothly But neither did FDR from his wheelchair. Meanwhile, trump is STILL a threat. He wants to be a dictator. He wants to stay out of prison. He wants revenge on his enemies. He wants to take away from the poor and middle class and give to the ultra wealthy. His Project 2025 will enable a national abortion ban to criminalize women seeking safe and legal abortions. His Project 2025 will take away the rights of our LGBTQ family and friends. His Project 2025 will transform the government into a loyalty pledge, not to America but to him ALONE. We might never have another free election. THAT is what is at stake in this election. We can continue to progress with Biden policies, or we can let trump destroy democracy as we know it. If you're looking for someone who's young and athletic, go watch a fucking movie. I'll take the old guy who needs a nap while saving democracy over the old guy trying to overthrow democracy who needs a legal team.

@ptklein Where? I'm in.

@ptklein @zev_greenberg World Market has Jiffy Pop. #nostalgia

I would replace "bugs" with "budget." YMMV

That George Clooney may return to his Italian mansion so that those of us actually affected by election results may continue the struggle against Trumpism we pray.

BILLION DOLLAR IDEA: Kennels, but for children so parents can travel. Hit me in my DMs. Serious investors only.

"When someone fails so many foundational tests, you don’t give him the most important job in the world." "He is, quite simply, unfit to lead." Yes to all of this ⤵️ Now the @nytimes must meet the moment with a drumbeat of coverage over days/weeks so voters know you mean it.

@ptklein You know actual movies are 24fps, right? 😜

Google Project 2025.

@ptklein Dry or wet?

No, really. It is. Fuck off.

Hey so uh… pollsters largely said LePen was going to win in France and she just got blown out. Polls don’t vote.

And before the CDC story, there was a segment shilling against clean energy policy.

Hey @PlanetFitness - you've got one TV showing a young-earth climate science denier (also taking shots at evolution for good measure) and another TV lending credence to a conspiracy theory about the CDC and COVID vaccines. How about changing the channel from this crap?

do you agree? 🤔
