Yes, that argument was from J. V. Last on the Bulwark podcast. I'm pretty sure the oppo research team for Trump's campaign is already working on a range of alternative candidates. They probably have draft story boards for commercials just waiting for a substitution to happen.

The most optimistic take about this problem that I have heard is that the short window until election day will somehow make it hard for the Trump campaign to discover and/or exploit flaws in whatever replacement is selected. That sounds to me like next level delusion.

The fact that we're still low-key (mostly) fighting the last civil war should tell everyone the likelihood anything will be settled with another one.

Did he maybe think the same people reading his tattoo couldn't see the color of his skin? (This would comport with my impression of white supremacists.)

As in the case of warning labels not to eat Tide Pods, it would be incredibly sad that we have to do this.

I should have mentioned that I was using Google Chrome. I'm typing this into deck.blue using Microsoft Edge without issue ... so far.

Today I thought the keyboard attached to my desktop computer was failing because it would not register a press of the space bar. Then I noticed that it only happened in deck.blue. I've gone back to standard bsky.app and I have spaces again. Nothing can stop me now! #deckblue

If a person has been following politics for the past 8 years, s/he would know that most if not all of the statements by Trump are pure fiction. But politics junkies are not the intended audience, and I really need a drink rn.

In retrospect, I wish the Biden campaign had refused to participate in a debate on the grounds that Trump's record shows he would be never be bounded by facts or truth. They should have claimed that it would be reckless, even morally wrong to support spreading this much disinformation.

So ... fishing trips, cruises, and RVs are perfectly fine because they're gratuities, not bribes. Got it.

It seems like the nurse isn't really making "it a little less scary." Active shooter training makes the anxiety associated with gun violence the base-line. This *may* make the anxiety during an active shooter incident seem lower by comparison. That's not really a win, is it?

There's a product/service for every market. My theory is an "AI Dating Concierge" exists for people who want a "relationship" with minimal emotional connection to fit into the other features of their lives. Not sure how big this market is, but I hope it's small.

Love the image of Musk adopting a pose intended to convey a "deep thinker" vibe. Anyone who has ever listened to his stammering answers to all but the simplest questions realizes he's about as shallow as they come.
