I guess today is the day everyone decided to switch over to Bluesky. I'm @davidvonstroh.bsky.social over there.

NEW🚨: Thailand should immediately withdraw the repressive #NPObill as its second iteration is under review. If enacted, the draft law would “enable government officials to stifle civil and political rights,” said @matthewfsmith, CEO at @FortifyRights. fortifyrights.org/tha-inv-20…

Hours ago, AOC voted for a resolution designed to conflate criticism of Israel and Zionism, on one hand, with anti-Semitism on the other. No one believes your act anymore, @AOC. You're on the side of the genocidaires.

As some of you know, I have a trans son. I think it’s fine to thoughtfully debate whether trans girls can be in girls sports. Not debatable: Transgenderism is real & stirring up hatred against a minority community for political gain is despicable. That’s what this is. Period.

35mph winds, lights flickering in seattle o__o the fact that we don't just eat the cost and bury all our power lines is crazy to me

Israel has made Gaza uninhabitable by design. This is not war, it is the deliberate annihilation of a people.

I’m on the DNC for 32 yrs: 16 on the Executive Committee, 11 as chair of the resolutions committee, & on the Unity/Reform Committee. I’m pushing for budget transparency & accountability, & party democracy. But I guess all I’ll ever be is that “pro-Palestinian” guy. It’s bigotry

Draymond should have taken that 3 to tie the game. Dude is shooting 45% from 3 this season, but in crunch time he still thinks he's a 30% shooter and excessively passes into contested Curry 3s.

Hello?

The refs made the end of that Warriors - Grizzlies game unwatchable. What were they on???

The connection b/w GSW fans and Klay is one of those rare, magical sports things where an elite talent with a totally genuine, relatable personality lands on the kind of team where he can turn that talent into big moments. There are great players who might spend their entire careers in one place and will never quite hit this sweet spot.

The NBA cup is the worst idea Adam Silver ever had. And absolutely shameful to accept blood and oil money from Emirates. The monstrous courts, the cringe ads. No one cares. It cheapens NBA basketball just as the regular season is heating up.

Is Draymond Green now a splash brother?

How do you know a recession is coming? Simple. Americans just elected a Republican president. Look at history: Since WWII, almost every single recession has happened after Americans elected a Republican president. Don’t believe me? Do your own research. Y’all love that.

Dems delivered the most economically populist admin in decades, got handed a massive electoral defeat, and now every pundit is like "hey have you guys considered economic populism"

I revere this country. The institutions. The Presidency. I want our nation to succeed. But I’m not naive. Donald Trump has a playbook. They wrote it out for us. 922 pages. With 270 specific points he has publicly supported. If our American values and freedoms are attacked, we will not stand idly by.

MARK MY WORDS: If Trump moves forward with imposing 20% across-the-board tariffs (60% for Chinese goods!), consumer prices will rise immediately. Americans will instantly feel the inflationary impact, and Trump’s approval numbers will plummet. Buyer’s remorse will set in fast.

A small but significant detail from last night’s game: Wiggins smoked a layup and then got blocked badly at the rim early in the game. Normally he would faze himself out of the game and take a back seat. Last night he continued moving forward with aggressiveness, didn’t let anything faze him. It was a grind out game for him, and he didn’t let anything hold him back. A good sign of where he’s at headspace wise. The Warriors are a much better team with this version of Wiggins. Not to mention what he brings on the defensive end of the floor.

Since you’ve been asking …
