Politics junkie. Craft beer & bourbon enthusiast. Dedicated/frustrated life-long #Orioles fan. Opinions are my own, but you should agree.
It's pronounced BAKE-ner. www.rantsfromearth.com
Clearly, I'm not a big influence here... but if everyone reading this shared it... and their connections shared, etc etc...
We'd really get this site up to full potential...and let the birdie spiral to its death.

Here's the sh*tty part of this Trump saga:

When the history is written & all the facts are chronologically detailed - in a work that will require VOLUMES rather than a single book - half of America will automatically deny the whole thing.

That aversion to reality is the biggest cancer in the USA.

UPDATE: The Elmo people (or, rather, the non-humans that screen this stuff) have spoken.
I'm in jail, serving a life sentence.
I went through the appeal process and my Bird account remains locked.
I will most certainly NOT delete the tweet.
The phrase "publicity whore" is only offensive to those for whom it is applicable.
I guess Elmo doesn't understand the phrase "publicity whore".
Twitter is VERY sensitive in light of the Trump verdict. Mark Knoller tweeted his surprise that E Jean Carroll didn't speak to the press afterward.
My reply put me in Blue Bird Prison for 12 hours.
I don't get it. This person is a Republican member of Congress - and rumored to be a potential VP pick for her party in 2024 - and she is telling us that the seizure of over 17 tons of illegal narcotics is a BAD thing???
As for me, I'm happy that the Biden administration is preventing these drugs from hitting our streets and possibly killing our children.
WHY DOES REP. STEFANIK HATE KIDS?

Just a reminder that if your #podcast is only on #Spotify then it's not a podcast. It's an audio recording.

A podcast distributes audio via an RSS feed that anybody can subscribe to without needing to sign up for a provider.

Jake Tapper is getting applause for laughing while reading Fox News’ ridiculous statement about their Dominion lawsuit settlement.

But Fox News might not have been able to do so much damage to the US if people like Jake Tapper hadn’t spent the last decade or so defending them and denouncing critics, calling Fox News a “sister” organization LONG after their true nature was blazingly obvious.

Now, if we could just get PBS and NPR to become fully established in the #fediverse we could then expect others to follow.
