Due to Twitter being so difficult for anyone to read now if they aren't on the site (or even then) I can't really post the links, but there's been days-long meltdown from a deeply disturbed writer at Current Affairs (the "left" publication that fired many of its workers when they wanted a co-op, and whose gadfly head was deeply involved in coaching Tara Reade), as her attacking the Buttigiegs and their kids led to a rabbit hole of "Matthew Shepard was killed in a drug deal gone bad," propaganda, pedo apologias, belittling and doubting a woman who was raped due to the claim that she didn't want to have anal sex, a long history of ranting and raving about the horrors of gay marriage and how evil white gay men sicced their dogs on her, and how she is "politically queer," which apparently from various comments made by people who know her, and by her own incoherent screeds, means that she only sleeps with men and has no interest in women, but just feels queer. 

All of this stuff is a great reminder, if any was ever needed these days, or just how virulently homophobic so many on the left are, even if they mask it in fancier language than their friends on the right.

What an appalling man. I don’t regret leaving Twitter last year.


 

I won’t judge those who have elected to stay but I just couldn’t allow that man to capitalize in any way off my intellectual property. He and his apartheid mentality suck.

Maybe the content of the article is better than the stupid headline but I just don’t care enough to read the actual article.

Most books about Trump are steeped in the scandalous years of his administration and often goes further back in time than that. Obama wrote his own books and those were best sellers but most books about Obama that were written by other writers didn’t do such big business either. When it’s time for Biden to write his own post presidency book, that will likely do well. Too many of these other books are rushed to press for a cash grab anyway.

I didn't read the article either. I posted the tweet mostly because about as honest as I've seen the Beltway be about why they hate Biden and want him to lose. He doesn't make them money on book deals and there also isn't an in-house group who buy the books in bulk as often happens with the GOP.

It's a pretty much a porn site now with escorts, influencers, Onlyfans models captailizing off the  bot algorithm to get paid off that tweet mention revenue that he started up a few months ago.
