Nancy Mace's I Am a Victim Because of My Vote Against McCarthy interview with Kaitlan Collins is something.
Summarizing it: She's a victim. And she is lonely. And she won't have any money coming in.
She's a lonely, broke victim.
Being quite serious, something is really off with Nancy Mace.
I don't know that much about her, so I did some searching. Did some searching and found she was victimized as a teen.
Then I found an article about the McCarthy vote.
“But it’s always been a mixed bag for Representative Mace. I think that’s reflective of her trying to balance herself with her district,” Cowart said.
Mixed bag is right. She ended up on Steve Bannon's show last night with Gaetz.
"Gaetz called Mace a “maverick.” Mace asked Bannon’s viewers for help.
“Because they’re coming after me,” she said before directing them to her campaign website."
Nancy Mace is in trouble. I don't mean political trouble. Something's not right.
You need us, you f-king idiot!
Not sure which Democrat this was, but they are my favorite.
"The party is still smarting that McCarthy refused their pleas to give Democrats a mere 90 minutes to read the CR text on Saturday. And they were downright disgusted to see McCarthy blame their party for the shutdown brinkmanship on “Face the Nation” yesterday, just hours after they put up votes to help him pass the CR.
“It was an astonishing show of bad faith,” one senior Democratic aide told us. “The dumbest political move I’ve seen in a long time,” one Democratic lawmaker agreed. “You need us, you f—king idiot!”"

And to think that of all of them, it is Josh Hawley that I hate most.

I feel like we're going to stay pretty flat unless and until more folks start posting stuff here that you can't find anywhere else and the people who are here start sharing that content on their other social media... either that or there is some other major event on X but with other options like Threads now I'm not sure even that would do it. 😐

I think you are right that the growth here will be slower than what we've seen. X-Twitter will continue its slow decline with bursts that match his tantrums, but the other options, like Threads and Bluesky, will pick up most.
But I think that we are also not going to see the big declines that have occurred when people quickly go back. People who join will be looking for a social media alternative to X-Twitter, not a social media replacement for X-Twitter.
Going to do the follower/following purge. Wonder what this month's numbers will be.
Following: Only eight accounts were last active in June. Then I went ahead and deleted those last active in July, which totaled 96. That was the Tweet Limit brouhaha. They came. They posted. He caved. They left.
Followers: No info for 13. Weird. 91 last active in June, and 173 for July. Some people switched instances, but that is only about 20. Again, that high number is the Came, Posted, and Left crowd.
And now mathish type things...
Following: 8%
Followers: 15.4%
Not as bad as Arraignment April.

You're welcome! I'm loving the podcast. I'm in the process of repainting our bathrooms and the episodes have made that task much more enjoyable.

Dear RFK Jr.:
There is no such thing as a legacy Democrat.
P.S.: You are a MAGA twat.
"In the interview, Kennedy defended running as a Democrat, despite espousing multiple typically conservative talking points during the 15-minute appearance."
Which may or may not include a federal ban on abortion at 15 or 21 weeks.
"The Fulton County clerk's office could not immediately be reached for comment on the docket report. Representatives for the county and Trump also could not be immediately reached for comment.
The two-page document cites the "Violation Of The Georgia Rico (Racketeer Influenced And Corrupt Organizations) Act," "Solicitation Of Violation Of Oath By Public Officer," "Conspiracy To Commit False Statements and Writings" and "Conspiracy To Commit Forgery in the First Degree," among other charges listed."

"Unfortunately, no shift in style can obscure the fact that a truly Trumpian agenda serves none of these lofty principles. It subordinates them to one single goal: owning the libs and other disfavored groups. And we’re already seeing proof of concept, since Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis has lately been implementing such an agenda in his state — with an efficiency that shows how much more Trumpism undercuts conservative values when it doesn’t have incompetence to hold it back."

Substitute teaching can be tricky because of behaviors. I found that with older students, once I returned to a classroom, things always improved.

As in, they agreed to not press the matter for now in the face of loud and visible opposition, only to ram it through in the Fall when COVID surges will serve as a distraction?

Good point. I'm not certain.

The longer I am on Mastodon and in the fediverse, the more I realize the early explanations about picking a server were wrong.
The server you choose really is important. I'm thinking that servers should be set up like speed dating. There should also be a component similar to receiverships.
"Kennedy crowed to me about his horseshoe coalition gathered round a campaign he views as fundamentally populist. And it’s quite a band he has put together: crunchy Whole Foods–shopping anti-vaxxers, paunchy architects of hard-right authoritarianism looking to boost a chaos agent, Nader-Stein third-party perma-gremlins, some Kennedy-family superfans, and rich tech bros seeking a lone wolf to legitimize them."
This is a great article on RFK Jr, who, as the author notes, has been protected and fawned over him because of his last name.
He is only blue collar if you can ignore the silver spoon.
"This entire campaign is a pose, as is his outsider stance. He is a Kennedy. He is the fifth member of his family to run for president. His sister Kerry was married to the man who would become the governor of New York, whose brother was a television journalist; his cousin Maria was married to the governor of California, who also happened to be a movie star."
Florida caved on AP Psychology.
I'm sure this has nothing to do with DeSantis' biggest donor expressing concern that DeSantis' views are too extreme to get support from moderates or the recent comment about splitting throats of federal employees.

I don't think it can be done.
Godfather 3 is the best of the trilogy.
Yeah, no one believes that.
