As the snow melts, I'm seeing lots of Northern Flicker's digging in the yard.

Highly recommend a birdcam feeder for the bird lover in your life!

Bovino loves the O'Hare uber parking lot almost as much as Trump loves Miss Teen USA pageants.

My wife and I have an adorable Christmas tradition this time of year: she buys a six pack of Guinness for the Christmas puddings. But I drink it all before she gets around to making them, so she has to go out and buy more.

the thing they don’t seem to get is that outside the right-wing ecosystem, no one even knows who they are. after charlie kirk’s death my normie friends were all “christ who IS this guy,” so yeah, i’m not surprised there isn’t much audience for the wife of that guy they’d never heard of.

every post is like i bet you didn’t know this absolutely wonderful thing about rob reiner and each one is different

It might be below freezing, but there's nothing like pizza fresh off the grill. That's the Chicago way!

Two night stay at hotel by the Sofi stadium in Ingleside, CA for US first FIFA World Cup match in June: $3,468. Prior week: $923. That's some surge pricing!

‘It’s surreal’: US sanctions lock International Criminal Court judge out of daily life. My interview with Canadian judge Kimberly Prost, who was sanctioned by the US for ruling to authorise an investigation into war crimes by US troops in Afghanistan www.irishtimes.com/world/us/202...

Turns out a combination of not using That Other Site and the economic landscape at the moment in general does, in fact, makes fulfilling the whole "starving artist" stereotype a whole lot more achievable 😅

A sign of the shellacking Trump is getting by federal grand juries is that I had never heard the term "no true bill" until the last few months when this DOJ started to fail to get indictments which rarely happened previously.

Eight months ago vs today. 🤡 @atrupar.com @cnbc.com @cbsnews.com

What does Schumer plan to do if Hegseth steals his lunch money and stuff him in his Congressional locker? Get real.

My "These Deals are Real" t-shirt has a lot of people asking questions already answered by my shirt. 🤡

The white-tailed deer are frequent visitors at my place.

I'm much more of a summer person, but the view from my porch in winter can be beautiful.

if you try to serve me a ‘woman-sized dinner’ i’m going to bury one of my ‘woman-sized fists’ in your eye socket

I wonder who will win the inaugural Netflix Peace Prize!

Every new word in this sentence is worse than the last

MacKenzie Scott: *donates $50M every 10 hours° Joe Lonsdale, co-founder of Palantir: "I want to see people hang"

Wow, that’s a pretty big point of disagreement, NPR. Maybe someone could investigate which point of view is correct and report on the truth of the matter. Do you know anyone who does that sort of thing?

This was just sent to me by an LAUSD parent. A 4th grader was assigned to design a book cover for Pippi Longstocking using Adobe for Education. Here is what the AI tool generated:

Find someone who looks at you the way Christy Moore looked at Shane MacGowan while singing Spancil Hill.

When I went to college in Boston in the 90s my grandmother’s parting advice was “Stay away from the Kennedys.” It remains good advice.

An interesting Chumbawumba anecdote: they hated Thatcher so much that they recorded an album while she was very much alive to be released on the day she died, “as part of the celebrations.” Not sure why that anecdote sprung to mind right now. Weird.

Got a close up look at Trump’s medal

What an obsequious, toadying, servile, brown-nosing, corrupt little cunt Gianni Infantino is. The FIFA 'peace prize' is the most cringe-worthy, pathetic thing I've ever seen in my life. Football deserves better than this travesty of a ceremony and ruling body.

My kids and I deciding which citizenship to keep when the Republicans ban dual citizenship: the nation sliding into authoritarianism, anti-intellectualism, and divisiveness, or the one offering visa-free residency and work privileges in 27 countries.

Terrorist were coming to the U.S. We killed ‘em. OK, boat wasn’t coming here. There was no 2nd strike. OK, there was. But we didn’t know. Didn’t see or order it. That guy did. Fog of war. Self-defense. Just wanted to sink the boat. JK. We meant to kill ‘em. And we’d do it again.

They can pry US citizenship from my cold dea... kidding...sign me up. I'll move back to Ireland.

How can it be December 2025 and Democrats are STILL voting for Trump's nominees?? What the actual fuck.

Sign me up! IDGAF.

Sen. Mark Warner on @briefingwithpsaki.bsky.social talking about "narco terrorists". No such f--kin thing.

They were 8 and 11 years old

My son studying engineering asked his group project members to be pallbearers at his funera,l when the time comes, so they can let him down one last time.

I've no strong opinion about it, but if they decided to rename my suggestion would be Tomi Reichental who survived Bergen-Belsen concentration camp, moved to Ireland in 1959, and dedicated his later years to educating young Irish people about the Holocaust en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tomi_Re...

He's not "Sec of War". And we're not a war...this is just straight-up murder.

Does anyone want a survivorship bias shortbread

As we get ready for a major winter storm in the Chicago suburbs, I recall that my wife has used the creme brulee torch I got her for Christmas years ago to fix the auger on our snowblower three times, and only made delicious, caramelized sugar custard desserts twice.

Weird but why not?

Pete Hagueseth. We should make it a thing.

If only Republicans were able to base their voting decisions on justice, morality and the common good, independently of their personal situation

The DC shooting story is really getting to me because we literally trained this man as a child soldier for a death squad in a forever war and Stephen Miller et al want to blame it on other cultures? It's our culture, American culture, that killed that woman.

I'm not sure that this is what Scott Galloway had in mind when he advised young men to "prioritize real-world interactions over screen time."

"Runctitiononal features"? "Medical fymblal"? "1 Tol Line storee"? This gets worse the longer you look at it. But it's got to be good, because it was published in Nature Scientific Reports last week: www.nature.com/articles/s41... h/t @asa.tsbalans.se

This is the first Thanksgiving for Sophie & Colin Hortman without their parents, Minnesota state Rep. Melissa Hortman and Mark Hortman who were assassinated along with the family dog in an act of political murder. National guards troops were not deployed to the state in response.
