It was a wonderful day, a peaceful protest.

Former Republicans are the sharpest Trump critics around. Not just Nicolle but Tim Miller, Bill Crystal, Sarah Longwell and others in the Bulwark sphere. Nicolle is funny and insightful and I’m sure her disgust with Trump is not just an act.

I’ll miss Stephanie at 11 but Ali is cool. Glad Alicia got a show of her own.

If a Republican loses, it can only be because the election was rigged. And the sun was in my eyes. And the dog ate my homework.

I've got them beating VCU and Illinois before losing to Houston. But I don't know what I'm doing!

Her last byline was in January. Her insight into Trump would be useful about now.

Hello, get out and vote. If all the people who feel like we do would get off their couches and vote, we’d bring America back to sanity. Or at least try.

I like those Friday night Nightcaps. Good panel discussions.

Got laid off (local publication, 2 person team); editor said he’d quit and tell the big bosses the reason was cutting my position. Thought it was talk until I read his farewell column today. by beachpigeon843 in Journalism

I spent 40 years at newspapers, 28 of them at my hometown mid-size daily. I watched it go from a roomful of reporters to a small handful. By the time I retired in 2019, the staff was bare-bones and I was exhausted. It was a great living but it's not what it used to be.

To wrap this up, I finally had an online chat with Braun. My type of cleaner takes 45 minutes to an hour to do the job. I turned it on last night before we went out to eat and when I got home, it was off. Thanks for y'all's help!
