I am finding it increasingly untenable to spend much time here so: if you want to find me, I'm over at the elephant site with the same handle, at audiostrategy.org and wherever else is next. Twitter was... I'm not going to say a good website but it certainly was a website.

"Not only that, but he was present for beatings, present for force feedings and other forms of torture. As Mansoor describes, not only was he present and observing them, but seemed to take great pleasure in them happening." therealnews.com/gov-ron-desa…

Here’s how beloved P22 is: He ate a dog and LA’s response is something like “Hey gotta keep your head on a swivel.”

This is too cute by half - Sinema couldn't win statewide even before this move. So now *maybe* she can play spoiler (and finish third as an incumbent Senator), but the null hypothesis was losing this seat.
The Sinema thing is very simple. Her calculus is that 1. She can't win a primary; 2. If she runs as an independent who caucuses with the Dems, another Democrat can't run bc they would split the vote and give the seat to the Republicans.
Amazing news! Long love Wisdom!!! We love you! – at Brooklyn, NY
Wisdom, the world’s oldest known wild bird, recently returned to Midway Atoll! The beloved Laysan albatross, or mōlī, is at least 71 years old. Biologists first identified and banded Wisdom in 1956 after she laid an egg, and the large seabirds aren’t known to breed before age 5.

New School students say they’ll occupy the building 24/7 “until the administration resumes pay, full healthcare protection, and retirement benefits to all school employees and until the university reaches a fair contract with part-time faculty.”

Love the “sports writers” doing google searches on Viktor Bout and are now posing as experts, decrying “the trade” for BG. This isn’t sports. This is the real world…a world where Viktor Bout did a lot of his dirty work for US backed regimes. But fake expertise always sells.

Also, if you’re a well paid content maker for, say, the NYT, you should be publicly supporting the people responsible for making it a prestige publication that makes enough $$ to pay you the big bucks.
Happy Thursday. Support labor, support unions.

Still surprising how infrequently "a million or so people died and a couple million more were disabled and it's still happening" is used to explain the surprises in our labor market, elections, mass politics, etc

Democrats have a historically good midterm election and The Hill says they are "a party still wounded from the last presidential election." Democrats in disarray, always!

The whole piece could have been titled: “I agree with Marc Andreesen and feel sad about it so I’m blaming artists.”

So will the @WNBA now pay enough that their athletes don't need to play in Russian (or anywhere else) during the off-season? – at Boston, MA
