"All the while Stelter made “I better be careful, I’m interviewing the boss,” jokes that landed like a suicide victim who had jumped off the Empire State Building." thefederalist.com/2019/10/25/jef…
"Zucker said he was not going to resign, although later expressed interest in becoming mayor of New York City. That was the first time in my life I ever thought, 'Maybe de Blasio isn’t so bad.'"

"Zucker said [Fox News] is not a news organization, it is state-run TV. He also that it is conspiracy TV that is doing a disservice to the country. He scolded Stelter for daring to suggest that even some of what Fox News presents is actual news."

"Asked what he thought was the biggest thing CNN does wrong, Zucker had no answer... The panel finished with Zucker explaining how important it is to the world that CNN be strong."

(Oddly, Zucker was not asked any questions about presiding over Matt Lauer's rape zone at NBC.)

Hillary Clinton is a deeply disturbed person.
Being on the D ballot removes you from running in the general in most states. The idea that Tulsi would be propped up as a general election third party candidate by the Russians is batshit. Hillary is insane.
Congratulations America, in 2016 you chose between two Boomers who believed insane memes for your Commander in Chief.

"Pressure against Turkey over northeastern Syria may create unusual partnerships in Washington. thefederalist.com/2019/10/09/the…
"Hawkish idealists on the left and especially the right have been furious with Erdogan for years, while many traditional realists and restrainers think America is overcommitted in Europe and the Middle East anyway and see little to lose in backing away from Turkey.
"(These two factions are usually bitter foes, and will prescribe different remedies.) Conversely, some non-idealist hawks have favored staying with Turkey, fearing Turkish alignment with Russia and Iran."

1. Let me drop my views about #Suicide.
Personally, I feel hurt whenever I hear or read about it. What comes to my heart is that "something is not right somewhere". And that "something need to be done". However, I'm sure the victim can overcome it. #Suicide
2. But what exactly is #Suicide? What is it all about? "Suicide simply means taking one's life intentionally." Of course, there are factors that leads to it. Such as depression, disappointments, sickness, loss of job, hopelessness and some related factors. #Suicide
3. There are other psychological factors too that can lead to #Suicide. But I have to say this, no matter the factor in which one is being entangled with, such can surly overcome. Taking one's life shouldn't be an option. #Suicide

We're giving this a try! Welcome to a live Twitter retreat that hopefully will help you think about practical ways to deepen your faith this #Lent

The retreat should take about one hour, and I'd encourage you to have a pen and paper ready so that you can write down responses

1/
Theme of the retreat: "Into the Desert"

Why did Jesus go into the desert in the first place? What did he get out of it? What does it have to do with us, as we think about our own experience of Lent?

2/
Did you know?

Lent comes to us from the Old English "Lenten," which meant spring. It begins on Ash Wednesday and ends with the beginning of the Mass of the Lord's Supper on Holy Thursday

45 Days Of @ElvisCostello: a twitter megathread in anticipation of the Oct 12 release date of LOOK NOW, the new LP by Elvis Costello & The Imposters

This is either a bright idea or a brilliant mistake, but this is only, this is only, this is only the beginning...
I did something similar to this 5 years ago, in anticipation of EC & @theroots' Wise Up Ghost LP, on tumblr.

(You can still find all those posts if you look, although a lot of the YouTube links etc are now dead ends. It was 40 Days Of EC then, so for 2018 I'm upping it to 45.)
Mostly I will be going chronologically from the early years right up to the present, but it feels right to start out with Costello's 2002 song, "45."

Thefts like this fascinate me. Biggest things ever stolen: a beach, a Boeing 727, a fully loaded oil tanker (and two more after that), a bridge, a church (Don't joke with Russians), a five-story mill (Kenya's entry), a tank, a WWII fighter jet, two luxury yachts...
...and once, a decade ago, @NYDailyNews temporarily stole the Empire State Building. In just 90 minutes. It was a stunt to show just how easy it was, and their fake company was called "Nelots" which, is "Stolen" spelled backwards. 😂😂😂
The Kenyan one was a five-story coffee mill, as reported by @johnKamau1 a few years ago. The entire structure was gutted down and disappeared, most likely as scrap metal. It was insured for 800m so it's also likely insurance fraud.

ugh, don't you love it when you remember a book or something from your childhood, thing "man, that was weird! why was that so weird? I'm gonna look it up!" and the internet doesn't believe you that it ever existed.
it feels like I'm gaslighting myself.
but yeah, there was a book I read as a kid about disassembling the statute of liberty. they took it all apart and there was all these neat structural drawings and explaining how it was made, and then they were gonna ship it off to a private buyer.

then the boat sank.
