sharia law is just one of the many mispronunciations of my first name

Me: the cat is out of the bag Reply guy: don't put cats in bags

I love that Rolling Stones song, "Wild Turkeys"

New: Videos show ICE/CBP agents are scanning peoples' faces on the street to verify citizenship. ICE has tool to instantly look up unprecedented number of databases with just a photo “I’m an American citizen so leave me alone” “Alright, we just got to verify that” www.404media.co/ice-and-cbp-...

i do think vance is mostly just regurgitating the half remembered ideas of dead slaveholder extremists but also this gives off the unmistakable scent of “i’ll say whatever you hogs want me to say,” which is fitting coming from america’s premier hogman

might be one of the funniest videos i’ve ever seen

Gave away my Keurig today but the curse lingers. Dark energy. Birds falling from the sky

Since Tr$mp has retaken office, nearly a million Americans have lost their jobs. That's the largest number of layoffs since 2020, during his previous term.

Lmao what (from today's Breaker newsletter)

It would be funny to be a squash

Sky Ferreira has been trying to release her second album for a decade and you guys are losing hope after 9 months? Sad!

The GOP is using the shutdown to literally make people choose between starving and losing their healthcare. That’s how sadistic this is and what the age of fascism is going to look like unless we defeat it.

The Walton family (who own Walmart) are worth over $400 billion, yet many of their employees are on SNAP. Bezos is worth over $400 billion, many Amazon employees require SNAP. The people who need help are not the problem. It’s corporate greed. It’s an unwillingness to pay a living wage.

And I would like to challenge this person to get a real job

okay lol

Tim Walz: "People are gonna be lined up out here to get food, and we're talking about a damn ballroom. Don't lose the plot."

Absolutely buck wild

More facial expressions than I’ve made in my entire life

Former clerk to Gorsuch AND former chief counsel to the Senate Judiciary Committee chair Chuck Grassley! One can find no finer, more faithful representation of the feelings of the GOP legal establishment.

This video from Portland is a metaphor for what is going on in America. ICE trying so hard to get Americans to cross a line and if they don't, dragging them across the line and violently attacking.

Meet our MC, Sarah.

I hate few things in the world as much as I hate the NYT

No one: Me: Babies aren’t real. They can’t hurt me

Is there coffee in jail? Trying to figure out if I should let them take me alive

People kvetch about the chaos-inducing serial comma, but you can also do a lot with a colon! Beware, biographers!!

dear US friends, when a sitting president (re)builds the seat of government, it almost always means the president has no intention of leaving at the end of term. your African friends with decades of experience

Ah well, nevertheless.

"ICE is not allowed to arrest American citizens" @repdangoldman.bsky.social, accompanied by @heyitsmurad.bsky.social, president and CEO of the NYIC, during a press conference on Wednesday. The four Americans were held at 26 Federal Plaza for nearly 24 hours. abcnews.go.com/US/nyc-resid...

A moth got into the shelter tonight and it was the event of the season.

SNAP benefits expire in one week.

He’s destroying… The Constitution Due Process Public Safety Free Speech/Press The Economy Small businesses Farms Jobs Healthcare Women’s access to safe healthcare ACA Subsidies Medicaid/Medicare SNAP/Food access programs for children/elderly Voting Rights Our military …And the actual White House

Chris Murphy: "There's a lot of history that has taken place in the East Wing & it was just destroyed without any conversation in the public, without any consent of Congress. It's absolutely illegal. That visual is powerful b/c you're watching destruction of the rule of law as those walls come down"

I'm trying to put together something coherent on how use of the r-word slur makes developmentally disabled people more vulnerable to sexual violence, but in the meantime: www.specialolympics.org/spread-the-w...

He simply hates anything beautiful

Brian Schatz: "This is not about money. There is enough money to bail out Argentina with $20b. There is enough money to purchase a brand new aircraft for $173m for Noem. There is enough money to renovate the WH ballroom. What there isn't enough money for under this Republican government is you."

Bonwit Teller 2.0.😡

Hundreds of people protesting ICE in downtown manhattan right now. Reads and Broadway. NYPD cops in riot gear on scene.

I want more people to care that SNAP benefits are being cut off on November 1. 40% of SNAP beneficiaries are children. This is callous and vile.

Both the U.S. marshal and the immigrant were shot by federal officers. You’d never know that from this headline.

The White House is asking people not to share pictures of the East Wing because it’s even worse today.

christ almighty what is this guy doing www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...

"Alphonso and Celestine Browne lost their 1912 Craftsman home in Altadena to the Eaton Fire after living there for more than 30 years — and they were dropped by their homeowners' insurance just a month before the flames arrived."

I'm not a West Wing obsessed lib or anything but the more I see pictures of this the more fucked up I think it is. It's like he cut off one of the hands of the Lincoln memorial with an angle grinder so he could add a big gun to it.

We all have that one friend who shows up like this to the sex party

I dunno how many graves you've dug but it's not enough to take that tone with me

Even accounting for his megalomania, you have to wonder how much of this reflects spite toward his wife — whose estrangement from him, excepting brief public appearances, seems nigh on total.

Me reading an essay that praises The Sopranos while disparaging The Godfather trilogy
