Movie review from Guardian on Melania.

Stone-cold brilliance from my pal Keef @keefknight.bsky.social

Bet you Vikings fans are feeling great right now.

Captain Kirk, to ICE: but ... YOU ... are the domestic terrorists

are they not monsters?

He probably thought they just spoke “Swiss.”

Another friend put it to me like this: "ICE has made the classic Nazi mistake. They've invaded a winter people in the winter."

For those who collect such things - this was a really good one.

It’s Penguin Awareness Day which seems like a great excuse to post the greatest ever Wikipedia edit.

I used to be a limousine driver, but I was fired after 10 years and I have... nothing to chauffeur it.

Republicans seem very confused today about how they feel about open carry at protests. Let’s play a round of Spot the Difference.

this is what it has come to for Mexican restaurants in the Twin Cities

This week’s Just for Skeets and Giggles is out! Have a great weekend. open.substack.com/pub/statusku...

The Fed Chair says the president is blackmailing him into lowering interest rates by threatening to put him in jail, and it’s the 74th biggest story of the day, and the 167th impeachable offense of the week.

- Okay, so in this episode we’ve got an ICE agent murdering a mom. We’re really amping up the conflict between the evil of the Trump administration and the good protesters. What name should we give the mom? - How about… Good? - You’re fired.

Here is a video of a frozen creek that had begun to thaw, and the water was flowing beneath the thin ice on top. I took this because it was soothing and wonderfully bloopy and I wanted to listen to it for hours. You are all welcome to enjoy it, too. Let your brain settle here and rest for a moment.

I love me some crude humor.

Picture a problematic old man in a nursing home whose dementia causes him to always be aggressive and angry, furiously and irrationally yelling about the seating, the TV channel, and dessert choices, often needing to be restrained. Now imagine that guy is president of the United States.

still to come this week: rain of frogs, plague of locusts

i wonder if cuomo can pronounce mamdani yet

Artists show the way it's done.

Who knew Nintendo included Jake Paul in the original MT Punch Out?

Let's be honest: By "fought" we mean "fucked into submission"

Big announcement from Gov. Newsom:

In 1931 in Kiel, Germany, Rachel Posner, the wife of a rabbi, took this picture. On the back of the photograph she wrote: “‘Death to Judah,’ so the flag says. ‘Judah lives forever,’ so the light answers.” The light will continue to answer the darkness. Happy Hanukkah.

For the first time in decades, I handed my successor an air traffic controller workforce that was growing instead of shrinking. Disturbingly, the Trump administration can't or won't say whether that’s still the case.

"I DON'T HAVE DEMENTIA, AND I WILL DENY IT BY WRITING A RAMBLING, NONSENSICAL, DEMENTED POST FULL OF LIES AND HALLUCINATIONS DURING MY 'SUNDOWNING' TIME. THANK YOU FOR YOUR ATTENTION TO THIS MATTER."

i think if you spend weeks away from your family telling a robot how to do your job only come out with this garbage you should be fed to grimace

Here's a project I wish had gone forward! A greeting card manufacturer asked me to create some greeting cards based on classic novels. I'm sorry they didn't click because I think they're hilarious.
