When the Moon Hits Yours Eye is on two Amazon "Best of 2025" lists: In the Top 20 for Science Fiction and Fantasy, and also the general Top 100 Books of the Year. Not bad for a book about the moon turning to cheese.

As of this morning, Starbucks workers across the country are officially ON STRIKE. And we're prepared for this to become the biggest and longest ULP strike in Starbucks history. Say #NoContractNoCoffee with us: DON'T BUY STARBUCKS for the duration of our open-ended ULP strike! $SBUX

QUESTION: If prices are down and not up because of tariffs — why is Bessent saying they’re going to lower tariffs on coffee, bananas, etc to lower prices? 🤔 ANSWER: Because they are lying. Tariffs are a tax on you, and prices are UP.

Wow

YUP!!!

Stephanie MIller uses her appearance on Hannity to say Trump is all over the Epstein Files to the Fox audience..

I’m ready to vote to release the Epstein files, but the Governor of Texas refuses to set the date for our special election. Governor Abbott - call the TX-18 runoff election now, and stop protecting the people in the Epstein Files.

Our leading news organizations turned a cache of ultimately-innocuous emails into a scandal-coded weeklong series of front page stories leading into the 2016 election. If they do not cover the "emails from notorious pedophile implication the President" emails with the same fervor, it's curious!

I've read the whole Shadowshaper Cypher and the series remains a favourite to this day. Very imaginative stuff, and just fun to read, too.

1. Going to the Library in Smyrna or Murfreesboro, TN? You might be greeted by an EMERGENCY CLOSURE sign. Apparently they have detected the presence of "transgender books" and are quarantining them as if they were a dangerous plague. The latest from S. Baum. Subscribe to support our journalism.

Admiral Fagan, the first woman to lead the U.S. Coast Guard, and Admiral Franchetti, the first woman to command the Navy. Both dedicated decades to serving their country with distinction until Trump axed them. Because Trump and Republicans hate women. Veterans Day

Some of the Restaurants in two counties that border each other in the area of Missouri where I live...are now offering FREE meals to children under 12 years of age...in order to help out families who are struggling. This warms me from the inside.

The guy who literally survived a stroke because of accessible healthcare now parrots GOP talking points that healthcare is extreme. Fuck off, Fetterman.

They’ve laid off so many people that the government is now getting its economic data from DoorDash.

for some reason, i don’t believe them

The sheer number of people Trump pardoned — 1,500+ — and the magnitude of violence many (most?) of them committed means it is statistically likely that a fair number will be revidivists, potentially for more egregious crimes. The pardons should be a top story EVERY DAY

Clark: So what are we doing here today? You have already voted to dismantle medicaid, the largest health care program in America. A program that covers 40% of all births in this country. 40% of children in this country. 40% of disabled people in this country.

81 years ago, FDR proposed a second Bill of Rights to guarantee every American the right to employment, healthcare, education, housing, and a living income. His words are as relevant now as they were then. Watch.

They have no healthcare plan. They only have a plan to take away what exists.

It's impossible to build any more housing in America, but luckily we have the politically easy and physically effortless alternative of just removing a third of the population. This clown is the GOP chair in Tarrant County, Texas, the third largest county in the state.

the harris campaign said the “they/them” ad didn’t sway the election. one of the trump campaign’s top strategists this week said trans rights isn’t in the top five issues for swing voters. when will the press stop talking about us like we’re a liability and start looking itself in the mirror

I'm old enough to remember people saying they voted for Trump because "he fights" wapo.st/4oTia5k

No one could accuse Donald of being woke.

If anyone is still wondering what dump and vought are doing right now, and if anyone still thinks the Bible is about emancipation, they should read the story of Joseph They should read Revelation The ‘prince of peace’ throwing his critics in a lake of fire because they don’t want to be his slaves

Child rapist Donald Trump is doing everything to keep accomplice Ghislaine Maxwell happy, until he pardons her, so she doesn't talk.

I haven’t been this excited for a bubble to burst since I was a toddler.

If you are (or work for) a politician and have questions about how to use YouTube well, please ask.

Evergreen.

So CBS settled Trump’s lawsuit where he frivolously sued because they edited Kamala Harris’s interview so it would fit into their air time. Then CBS does a 73 minute interview of Trump where they made big edits from the version that was broadcast. They aired 28 of 73 minutes.

I see that CBS chose not to air this part. It probably explains much of what they did decide to air.

The Mob Boss sends a message to the Supreme Court ahead of oral arguments in the tariff case that oddly never mentions the constitution.

With the president’s blessing, Skydance merged with Paramount, gaining control of CBS News. Now the giant might eat up Warner Bros. Discovery, which includes CNN Trump is surely hoping to accomplish what Orbán’s regime has done, controlling some 80% of Hungary’s media market trib.al/DQtQpsA
