Hi Bluesky - I'm Massachusetts' Attorney General. You might know me from suing President Trump nearly 50 times, beating Uber and Lyft in court, or being the first woman of color elected to statewide office in MA.

I officially left X today - help me find my MA people?

Did you ever read the book, and her other book, Go Set a Watchman? Both well worth the time.

And trivia: in the Gregory Peck movie for To Kill a Mockingbird, Robert Duvall has his first role S Boo Radley.

The wait is almost over! I'm excited to be joining Microsoft Fabric as a senior software engineer. I'm grateful for this opportunity to tackle new challenges together with an amazing team, stretching the limits of .NET build technology! I'll also continue as a member of the C# language design team.

Up through middle school, we lived in Glencoe. My dad’s best friend lived in Shakopee. We used to fish together in lake Waconia. I know the area well.

And, ICE goons are now in our area to. We all need to stand together.

The reason it’s β€œunlike anything ever done before” is that it’s a stupid idea. It will ruin the acoustics of the venue.

Great way to make the sound bounce everywhere and ruin the sound engineer’s ability to make it balanced.

Daughter brought goodies from Scotland for the holidays. Great to share with everyone here.

I hope all of you are having a great holiday.

I’ve played snooker, and enjoy it. What is the shoot out format?

Movie you’ve watched more than six times with a gif. Hard mode: no Stars (Wars nor Trek), LOTR, or Marvel, Disney Animated or Pixar.

If you’re a parent, this can be painful. Our youngest is 30, and I think I’m still off book for most roles in The Lion King.

There’s a road I’d like to tell you bout
Lives on my hometown
Lakeshore drive the road is called
And it will take you up or down
From rags on up to riches
Fifteen minutes you can fly
Pretty blue lights along the way
Help you right on by

On the other hand, we must wonder: is @markrussinovich.bsky.social a bot?

No, but you’d have the kitchen appliances working and could make nachos.

Look for the win

Well, Diane Ladd and Donna Godchaux McKay are worthy of them.

I, for one, am anticipating this piece. I expect to learn a lot from it.

Part of me is happy Mills is running. As @danpfeiffer.bsky.social says, she has been a good governor. And, if @grahamformaine.bsky.social can’t beat her in a primary, he won’t beat Collins.

That said, I’m excited to support Platner, on character, message, and energy. Let’s go!!!!

Are Democrats About to Blow It in Maine? By backing Janet Mills over a grassroots outsider, party leaders may be repeating the same mistakes from 2024

Dan Pfeiffer
For the life of me, I cannot figure out what the hell the Senate Democrats are doing in Maine β€” the most important Senate race in the country. Their decision to back Janet Mills suggests they have learned no lessons from our loss in 2024.

I want to defeat Susan Collins. The enthusiasm I see for Platner is off the charts and I think he can do that. I prefer his age, temperament and platform to Janet’s - but I have a lot of respect for her and will rank her second. If she wins the primary I will be happy to support her.

Hi @aimsel.bsky.social
