Empathy = Trump Derangement Syndrome

DOD: We’re going to activate anti-drone technology near El Paso at Fort Bliss. FAA: Hold on, what’s that going to do to airliners? DOD: ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ FAA: SHUT IT ALL DOWN

Cars are horseshit.

🇲🇽 Trump's Good Neighbor Policy in action 🇨🇦

White guy sees this as the best time to disregard the Constitution.

White guy who lives in a castle talk.

The United Districts of America

Just a few screengrabs from the Declaration of Independence. There's a lot more, but I don't feel like repaginating handwriting this morning.

These kinds of human scale, mixed-use Midwest dive bars are illegal to open and operate in most American neighborhoods.

Sure hope not.

Trump is swapping pint-size fascist Greg Bovino for Tom Homan. You may remember Homan as the "border czar" who was caught taking $50,000 in cash from undercover FBI agents. He also said immigrants should be looking "over their shoulder" and that the mayors of sanctuary cities should be locked up.

FACT CHECK: TRUE

We need a global boycott of the U.S. Don’t attend the World Cup. Demand that U.S. matches be moved to Mexico and Canada. The only leverage that works is money and ego. With no meaningful checks from Congress or the courts, change will only come through worldwide pressure. We need the world’s help.

I don’t know who put these images together. On the left, a Nazi soldier of WWII executes a person with a head shot. On the right, an ICE agent in Minneapolis executes a person with a head shot. Hard to tell the difference? The Nazi is the one not wearing a mask.

Not as effective as Jonas’s Pork and Amphetamine Smoothies, though!

I thought time wounds all heels but somehow I'm losing faith in that thought

Hill climbing in Florida

Away in a manger, no crib for a bed The little lord Jesus pretends that he's dead He stuck out his tongue, crossed his eyes, and he said "When I'm crucified I'll be res-ur-rec-ted!"

We evacuated our kids out of Minneapolis this weekend and my spouse reports that as she drove them out of town she saw "multiple freeway exits where people are being pulled over." It feels like the Twin Cities is being subjugated by a hostile occupying force.

Finally getting around to the funnies today and I thought Marmaduke was having at her douche bag.

Have you ever noticed how similar these two words are? Hegseth Megadeth Just wondering.

Holiday card tallies so far (I know there's a couple days left to go) from my spreadsheet. I sent them out right after Thanksgiving. Sent: 41 Received: 15, two of which were from people we didn't have addresses for because they'd moved and we knew it. Returned: 2, for bad addresses.

I'd say "Pets". For me, it's my little old blind lap dog. But it would be a lap cat if I hadn't developed an allergy, and there are lots of other pets that bring comfort and peace to their "owners" during times of idiocy.

Wait a second... battleships? Seriously, BATTLESHIPS? Shouldn't the class be named after states? Like the Canada or Greenland-class battleship?

There’s nothing like a week before Christmas to put me in the shopping mood

Seems like these lawsuits are simply fishing expeditions, to see if the entity being sued will settle. www.dailykos.com/stories/2025...

Search results in Apple News for "Free the nipple" are pretty much unlimited. There's a lot of scrolling to reach the bottom, if you ever do reach the bottom.

Limits? NONE.

very little nowadays that makes me happy as clicking a "twitter" link on someone's website and getting

Time to give these 'press' reps their proper collective name: the Pentagon Propaganda Pool.

If this were real, they'd be overinflated and wearing masks

If I had to encounter that thing in a bike lane, I'll push it over onto it's side. That's not a bicycle, and should stay out of bike lanes.

Watching "Kiss Me, Kate" on TCM. Apparently it was shot in 3D. I always wonder if I'm supposed to watch with my left eye or right eye, and is there a separate print somewhere for the other eye? Oh well, Ann Miller, gotta run.

Christmas traditions around the world. "The same horse's head tended to be used annually, for it was buried in lime to preserve it for most the year, and dug up each December." This from the first industrialized society in the world, has to be some kind of Luddite Xmas energy going on.

"Further official comments will be limited, to preserve the integrity of the proceedings." That cat's outta the bag, Heggy.

Let's say for the sake of argument, that a person doesn't believe in god. There is no god, it's made up, useful for convincing people to give you money, whatever. Does that person have to think politicians or athletes or whatever who thank it for winning or use it for making laws are full of shit?

Fuckin' e-scooters!

This is who she was. Passionate in her beliefs. Fiercely loyal to her friends. Never afraid to let you know exactly where she stood. The best. Fun Fact: I remember arguing with her over which of us hated Piggy the most. I was sure I did. She disagreed. It remains unresolved...

Hard to hide a civilian target from terrorists.

Nobody had to convince me Pam Bond-eye was incompetent, but always fun to have your opinion vindicated.

Apple News+, AKA what’s Sydney Sweeney wearing today?

I was watching "The Front Page" from 1931 and just realized the walls of the press room at the prison are plastered with pornographic pin-ups. They're slightly out of focus, but they're very much in keeping with the whole misogynist vibe of the gang of reporters in this film. #TCM

Where's J Edgar Hoover when you need him?
