decapitrump is in bad taste, some might say, which is way worse than bad morals in 'merica

I'd like to think someone just woke up from a 15-year coma and the first thing they saw was this tweet https://t.co/8kMtV6z7fG

Honestly do wonder what would happen if Twitter suddenly up and died.

Ned Raggett, Thursday, 1 June 2017 02:38 (six years ago) link

do we know what happens to deleted tweets? i doubt the text would disappear here

k3vin k., Thursday, 1 June 2017 02:39 (six years ago) link

(i just tested and they don't)

k3vin k., Thursday, 1 June 2017 02:41 (six years ago) link

which is why the tweet embeds are great!

k3vin k., Thursday, 1 June 2017 02:41 (six years ago) link

oh wow, i just realized that if you have images on, the whole tweet embeds! that's kind of cool. FYI, w/ images off (the correct way to use ILX), the text of the tweet is pasted

k3vin k., Thursday, 1 June 2017 02:48 (six years ago) link

as long as u use old.css u are using ilx correctly

From Code Warriors: NSA's Codebreakers and the Secret Intelligence War Against the Soviet Union, by Stephen Budiansky

A Soviet defector, Arkady Shevchenko, subsequently confirmed that other well-situated facilities used by Soviet diplomats in the United States—an eighteen-story residential complex in Riverdale in the Bronx, located on one of the highest spots in New York City; a Long Island mansion on thirty-seven acres in Glen Cove that served as a recreational retreat; and another recreational facility on the Eastern Shore of Maryland—were used to eavesdrop on microwave towers that served not only the major long-distance telephone links to Washington and New York, but also Andrews Air Force Base, where the president’s Air Force One was based, and Norfolk, Virginia, home of the U.S. Atlantic Fleet. “It is most unlikely that these sites were selected for any other reason than microwave interception,” an AT&T analysis concluded. The Soviets’ Washington-area intercepts of unencrypted phone calls by U.S. officials and defense contractors were, according to KGB defector Vasili Mitrokhin, Moscow’s “most important source of intelligence on the foreign and defense policies of the Ford and Carter administrations.”

At this rate Russia won't even need to spy on us.

i am glad other people have to regularly double check to make sure that was not kathy griffin on newsradio

sorry, vicki lewis!

mh, Thursday, 1 June 2017 03:40 (six years ago) link

wait, what? i always thought that was griffin!!! lol

Karl Malone, Thursday, 1 June 2017 03:46 (six years ago) link

I think KG got in the public eye just as Newsradio was ending and Vicki Lewis didn't get a next tv gig as high profile and the public mind got confused

mh, Thursday, 1 June 2017 03:47 (six years ago) link

Kathy Griffin was on Suddenly Susan (Brooke Shields sitcom), which was on NBC around the same time NewsRadio was.

I was about to say I thought she'd been in Just Shoot Me, but that isnt right either haha.

Further discussion of Vicki Lewis will be happening shortly over in the 90s Hot thread.

I never thought about it before, but how weird was it for NBC to have two competing female-led ensemble sitcoms about magazines (Just Shoot Me! and Suddenly Susan)? The '90s, man.

to fly across the city and find Aerosmith's car (C. Grisso/McCain), Thursday, 1 June 2017 04:06 (six years ago) link

Throw all the magazine related shows to the wall and see what sticks, great strategy

There's one episode of Newsradio where Vicki Lewis does a quick Griffin impression after noting that every office has a spunky redhead

I often confuse Kathy Griffin with David Spade.

erry red flag (f. hazel), Thursday, 1 June 2017 04:16 (six years ago) link

tbf they were both spunky

Newsradio > everything, especially the Trump admin, is my opinion

The Brooke Shields one was a decent sitcom vehicle for her career

jeez was Caroline in the City around this time, too? the 90s wasn't bad for woman-led shows

I loved Just Shoot Me but it has not aged well
