I don't feel as strongly about quote posts as I did in 2018. Personally, I am not a fan, but there is clearly a lot of demand for it. We're considering it.

How am I supposed to quit Twitter when an insufferable shitstain gets owned by a teenage climate activist so hard that he made a douchy reply video that led Romanian authorities to his location leading to his arrest on suspicion of human trafficking?

Getting back to our discussion, this @washingtonpost story on the small paper that reported on #Santos pre-election touches on connections to the loss of local news capacity:

Beyond numbers, it’s about using resources on reporting that might not offer immediate payoff (i.e. candidate vetting). I’ve seen outlets that used to claim elections as a franchise shift to barely covering them.

A tiny paper broke the George Santos scandal but no one paid attention

The North Shore Leader was onto his lies months before he was elected in New York.

Hello @[email protected]

I have 3 bikes.

My Faraday has a 250 watt battery.

My Fuji bike has a basket and a cup holder.

This is just the start.

Please keep up the good work. You are a badass. I don't need your email address since that just seems weird and creepy.

If you’re in London Jan-Apr, be sure to come see me in Allegiance! https://Allegiancemusical.com

Memo to the media:

Stop letting politicians get away with calling asylum seekers "illegal immigrants" or saying they're not coming to this country "the right way." Seeking asylum is legal. Presenting themselves at the border & requesting asylum is "the right way" to seek asylum.

“Our country has come too far to allow a defeated President to turn himself into a successful tyrant by upending our democratic institutions, fomenting violence, and…opening the door to those in our country whose hatred and bigotry threaten equality and justice for all Americans.” And: “We can never surrender to democracy’s enemies.”

—Jan 6 committee co-chair Bennie Thompson in the final report
