This is... catchy: www.youtube.com/watch?v=kZYR...

I've been thinking I'd really love to teach a 16 credit coordinated class - possibly multi-quarter - called "Just Blame Reagan". The material is just so rich.

This is America. You can take on The Boss from New Jersey and the Pope from Chicago but you can't war with both. This president is a hollow, bitter crank of a man. Stunted, frightened, stupid. But when he talks shit about Dolly Parton, the only diagnosis remaining is tertiary dementia.

If I were still a believer, I'd be deep down a "What if he's actually the Anti-Christ?" hole right now. Like it says in Revelations: "And lo, the Beast shall be the color a ripe mango and smell of sulfur and saltpeter..."

Can we appoint Vance as Trump’s personal physical next?

Welcome home, Artemis II crew!

"This is what you get when you elect Republicans." Every Dem within 100 feet of a camera needs to be saying this repeatedly. Every time we elect Republicans, we get dumbass wars, tax cuts for rich people, and financial crises. Every time. Fucking say it!

it’s important to remember that, as a whole, they are actually very stupid. that truth comes with pros and cons, but it is the simple, obvious truth.

Yet be well assur’d You put sharp weapons in a madman’s hands.

But shall this crazed old man be tamely suffered to drag a whole ship’s company down to doom with him?

Just so everyone knows — WGA has told Captains that what is being reported in the media regarding negotiations with the AMPTP is being reported without authorization and may not be completely accurate. A deal is not yet finalized. They will let everyone know when it is.

Okay then! Here's my middle readers fantasy trilogy, still available on Amazon, Kindle, and Audible. Great ratings from the few people who read them. 😆 www.amazon.com/dp/B087YSDM5...

Well hopefully this is good. Still need to see the details deadline.com/2026/04/wga-...

hmm

The scapegoating of henchlings will continue until people stop pointing at the naked emperor.

A reminder that we didn't go to the moon just to do it. In order to land the first time we had to invent three things: the personal computer, the pocket calculator, and cellular technology - three things that changed humanity on the whole over the last 56 years. Going again will affect the next 56.

We actually got a nice thing in the middle of our current hellscape! Go Artemis II!

"You fell victim to one of the classic blunders! The most famous is never get involved in a land war in Asia..."

When I play a world conquest video game, and I want to take land after an air campaign, I preposition my troops so they can land immediately after the bombs stop, so they enemy has no time to reinforce their bombed-out positions. But hey, that's me... You play your way, I guess.

#showbiz lesson: Ideally, work with smart, good people. If not, dumb, good people are fine. They mostly follow direction & mean well. Smart, evil people are... well... okay cause you can usually count on them to follow their own self interest. Make sure it aligns with yours. Dumb + evil? Disaster.

Hollywood Spin 101: When cornered, blame the writer.

I kinda wanna write a character based on Mick Cronin in his press conferences. #UCLABruins www.youtube.com/watch?v=VO2N...

The world is a shitstorm but I feel it's important to acknowledge that #WonderMan is really good and actually manages to accomplish something that most streaming series don't, which is that ever episode is distinct and its own perfect little story. Anyway, back to hell...

Walz: "To Americans who are watching this, I've got a question for you: What side do you want to be on? The side of an all powerful federal govt that can kill, injury, menace, & kidnap its citizens off the streets? Or on the side of a nurse at the VA hospital who died bearing witness to such govt?"

Those shirts sure are brown.

This moment in history provides us with incontrovertible evidence that all the conservatives who claim to be extremely devoted to freedom of speech and the right to bear arms, and opposed to the encroachment of tyranny, are completely and totally full of shit. It's all white supremacy and greed.

WOW on Pretti's denial of medical treatment "I informed the ICE agents that I am a physician, and I asked to assess the victim. At first, the ICE agents wouldn't let me through. ... But none of the ICE agents who were near the victim were performing CPR, ... None of the agents were helping him."

2 DEAD IN MINNESOTA Tin soldiers and Trump is coming We're finally on our own This winter I hear the drumming Two dead in Minnesota Gotta get down to it, icemen are cutting us down Should have been gone long ago What if you knew her and found her dead on the ground How can you run when you know?

can you imagine being the federal agent assigned to bluesky, just getting scolded by deep space nine experts while all your buddies get like challenge coins

the nba postponed a game because the united states government is killing its citizens

I shall patiently wait for the NRA to release a statement condemning this murder

“Everyone should be allowed to carry a gun for their safety but the government can murder you in the street if you have a gun” is an incredible endpoint for the conservative moment

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

this was never a prediction, this was just a literal reading of the strategy they openly articulated in public places where anyone can see it the only reason this hasn’t been done before is that usually the American people don’t elect someone who promises to bring chaos and lawlessness

So when authorities say “she tried to run over an officer,” that is not a neutral description. It is a claim of intent that can be used to justify lethal force after the fact. When the state kills first and invents the threat afterward, it is not policing, it is death squad behavior. /end

🧵In my expert opinion as a researcher of vehicle ramming attacks, what has been publicly described in the video evidence does not support the claim that Renee Nicole Good was attempting a deliberate ramming attack when she was shot in Minneapolis on January 7, 2026. 1/7

A country that blows up foreign fishing boats for no reason is one that will shoot its own citizens for no reason.

Days since paramilitaries acting under the orders of our wannabe dictator have killed an American citizen: 0

Dead checking is a war crime. Just FYI. Dead checking unarmed people who are busy drowning? Probably doubly so.

Almost a year now since I received this absolutely classic burn from the Canadian government.

Not a shitpost: #NoKings is feel-good performative activism for comfortable mostly upper and upper middle class white folks and that’s good, actually. Millions of people in the streets protesting a fascist regime is good. It is good for the normie baseline to be massive displays of public dissent.

This lobster loves America! (And hates fascism)* *It’s my wife.

Watching NCCA football on a Friday night (because I have a bug and I'm keeping away from Celeste) and the announcer just called a catch a "Leroy Jenkins" play. I don't know if Cal will hold on, but the geeks just won.

The following is REAL footage from Portland, 2025. Viewer discretion is advised.

It's super on-brand that people like Hegseth love the Spartans, who were artless, slave-keeping, murderous fascists despised by pretty much EVERYONE, but they never talk about how the Spartans were ultimately defeated by a heroic army of... let me double-check my notes... yep... gay democrats.
