I know I'm not always on the cutting edge when it comes to #music, but if you don't know his stuff yet, check out Asaf Avidan. Solo since 2012, as Asaf Avidan and the Mojos before then. Jazzy and classic James Bond movie soundtrack vibes.

How can anybody take the current administration seriously when they claim children currently receive dosages of MMR vaccine the size of soda bottles? Is there any time in history any child received any vaccination of 500ml in a single sitting?

Trump must be fuming right now. Calling Infantino about the red card wasn't enough and Belgium is leading 3:1 right now. Is Trump going to call Infantino to disallow the Belgium goals? Deport the Belgian team? What's next?

"If Watergate happened tomorrow, it would be like a 12 hour news story." - JD Vance Yes, unfortunately, here's something I can agree on with the Vice President. Compared to the current administration, breaking into the opponents' offices is not very significant at all. 1/3

"The idea that it would have taken down a presidency is crazy." - JD Vance Nixon faced an upcoming impeachment and being called an "unindicted co-conspirator" and was pardoned by the Ford administration. It's not so crazy he'd resign. 2/3

JD Vance, you continue to work for a twice impeached President and felon who's using the military to blow up 200+ people without trial and started another war with Iran. Just because you have very low standards on criminal behavior doesn't make anything about Nixon's resignation crazy. 3/3

It's really nice how Trumpists in my family are so relaxed about high gas and grocery prices these days. Because obviously they can't blame the current President and Biden has been out of the office for too long. It's a lot more comfortable when there isn't the screaming about the end of the world.

When I now hear some of the GOP senators speak up against a military takeover of Greenland by their "dear leader", it's almost as if they think they had any influence on this administration. We're talking about a guy who was sitting back while his mob was getting ready to murder his VP.

I'm a bit lost. Can somebody explain to me why all of a sudden, President Trump is supposedly screwed because of the possible release of the Epstein files? Is anything potentially in the files really going to matter to the people who voted for him despite all the things he publicly said and did?

The #gop is just mad that guns are killing so many young people. To help with that, #Florida is now going to make sure that the proportion is going to change in favor of measles, influenza and polio.

Normally it's New Zealand missing from maps, but it appears the 1998 TV show Secrets of War decided to add a second Taiwan. Does anybody know why? They were nice enough to even point to the first Taiwan with this red arrow.

Der Umgang Alexander Dobrindts mit dem Urteil des Verwaltungsgerichts Berlin weckt Erinnerungen an andere Fälle, in denen CSU-Politiker geltendes Recht ignoriert haben um mal zu sehen, wie weit sie kommen. Im Fall von Andreas Scheuer hat es deutschen Steuerzahlern viel Geld gekostet.

Just got my paperwork for the German elections in the mail. The municipality mailed it February 6. Elections were February 23. Deadline to get the election paperwork into the German Consulate in Los Angeles so they could have sent it through their courier was February 17. Better luck next time!

Here are a couple of possible answers we'll hear: It's Biden's fault. It's not actually inflation, it's just higher prices. It's a lie. If you keep reporting on this, you'll be excluded from the White House press corps.

The Washington Post@washingtonpost.com

Breaking news: Inflation heated up more than expected in January, as prices continued to weigh on Americans in 2025, potentially complicating President Trump’s agenda.

I keep hearing that if Trump does not manage to lower the prices of groceries, people are not going to keep supporting him because he "broke his promise." Maybe I'm just a bit pessimistic but the November 2024 elections are over. Are there going to be elections in 2026? 2028?

A Private War (2018) Anatomy of a Fall (2023) Two #movies about two different topics. Both of them just about blew my mind. Performances by Rosamund Pike and Sandra Hüller respectively are so convincing, I thought I was watching documentaries.

Senate *Republicans* are concerned about the ethics of the AG nominee? You elected a twice impeached, convicted felon, serial bankrupter & fascist who previously tried to overthrow the government to be President, and the ethics of a pedophile AG nominee are what you are concerned with?

It felt a bit weird to actually delete the Twitter app from my phone but I feel like that makes it more real. Unfollowing everybody there too was also weird but I hope people will slowly but surely find their way here. Next step sometime soon may my to delete all my Twitter history and the account?

Considering that Trump always claims he had won the 2020 election and some of his supporters even said he was actually President still, did Trump just break the 22nd amendment of the Constitution by being elected for the third time this year?

Is it going to hurt the Trump campaign that Puerto Rico was called an "island of garbage"? I'm not too hopeful it's going to have much effect on the people who have elected him in 2016 and continue to support him through all the other outrageous things he said, did or supported.

I guess Wall Street likes this change. Boeing stock's up ~5% so far today. Hope it's also good news for safety and employees.

The Washington Post@washingtonpost.com

Boeing on Wednesday named Robert “Kelly” Ortberg as its next CEO and president, tapping an industry veteran to turn around a company beset by safety scandals, production problems and steep losses.
