@rbreich I'm beginning to worry too. Although Biden is a good leader with a good team around him and has steered the economy to the best it has been in years, the portrayal of him being a doddering old man from the right wing media is clearly having an impact. Should he consider stepping down to allow someone like Gavin Newsome to step in and tear Trump to shreds?

@georgetakei Reminds me of that recent clip from Fox News (I think) where a right wing crazy person was claiming Star Wars is now too woke, so watch Star Trek instead. Tell me you've never watched Star Trek without telling me you've never watched Star Trek.

Land of the free? Home of the brave? Sounds like false advertising.

@arstechnica The ZX Spectrum tape loader was ahead of the competition in terms of user experience. The colour bars told you whether anything was loading or not. Or whether your volume control needed adjusting. So many other systems just left you there waiting without any feedback. It was brilliant.

@georgetakei Started watching the film earlier this evening… lasted about 30 minutes. It was so . . . flat. And disjointed. It felt like an art house parody. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o4EjX_bywCU

According to the WaPo: “Donald Trump has privately said he could end Russia’s war in Ukraine by pressuring Ukraine to…cede Crimea and the Donbas border region to Russia.” Did we learn nothing from WWII and the danger of appeasement? Give an inch, he'll take it all.

@rbreich What possible leverage does Trump think he has? His cohorts are already blocking aid.
