Did I really need to finish upholstering this old bamboo cabinet? Not at all. I have a million other urgent things to do. Am I happy I did? Oh, yes. Ecstatic.

I cannot…

Gallego: "The president is an idiot. He doesn't actually understand how the military works."

Imagine getting owned this hard by Hakeem Jeffries

Deeply deeply relieved and grateful the generals didn’t applaud that travesty of a speech.

I work with Veterans. If I told them that they "killed people and broke things for a living" they would (rightfully) tell me to go to hell. Those that have had to kill someone in the line of duty most often view it with sadness, regret, and one of the worst experiences of their lives.

Last night, I suggested to my 17yo that we watch either Reversal of Fortune or The Ice Storm, and he replied, “I’ve never heard of either of them so they can’t be that good.” Oh. My. God.

That is 100% the right note to strike. I am getting very Van Hollen pilled.

www.thedailybeast.com/pentagon-pet... I guess he's just an asshole.

Nobody but an angry, dry-drunk (or still drunk), terrified-of-his-own-shadow and deeply in-the-closet guy like Pete Hegseth would care so much about “masculinity.”

So many things going through my mind about Kaleb right now. A complicated guy but a singular talent. One of his very revered people, Norm MacDonald, recognized it. But I wish those in charge who actually pay for fine writing, did. He deserved to be appreciated more than he was. Rest In Peace.

RIP Kaleb Horton. A singular talent

Kaleb Horton RIP.

Stephen Miller, emo as a tween. (Also: he’s a Nazi.) youtu.be/SaM1F1HLNNE?...

On a completely different note, I’m proud of myself for figuring out on my own how to do my little home project. I think it’s going to look great when it’s done.

He fucks bulls and then kills them with a sword?

Oklahoma Attorney General Gentner Drummond — who has regularly pushed back on Walters’s actions in office — already has out a statement. (Drummond is running for governor in 2026; Gov. Kevin Stitt is term-limited.)

The richest man on earth owns X. The second richest man on earth is about to be a major owner of TikTok. The third richest man owns Facebook, Instagram, and WhatsApp. The fourth richest man owns The Washington Post. See the problem here?

Usually I get bad secondhand embarrassment for people in these situations. But with Zuckerberg, I’m rooting for the WiFi demons 💯 Friends, are these the kind of guys we want running the world? 😂

I’d like to see a handwriting sample from Krazy-Eyed Kash, please.

With both of my pregnancies, I had truly horrible colds. And the only thing I could take was Tylenol. I took quite a bit while sick. Both my kids are perfectly healthy and I would have been absolutely desperate without it. Give me a fucking break, guy hooked on heroin for 17 years.

In 2016, JD Vance mused that Trump might be "America's Hitler"

You guys do yourself a favor and look at what Eric Adams wore to Rosh Hashanah services at the Sephardic Lebanese Congregation

NBC News projects: Democrat Adelita Grijalva wins the special election for Arizona House District 7. Grijalva will bring the important 218th signature to the chamber's Epstein files discharge petition — forcing Mike Johnson to handle a fight that has divided his conference.

Nicely done.

We are being ruled by people traumatized by their diseased families.

You have to think of the practicalities before The Rapture

I guess Trump and his fräu aren’t getting Raptured

Donald Trump and Melania get on an escalator at the UN and it immediately stops working 🤣

Good acting isn’t as easy as it seems

Now that’s what I call a pivot

I found the absolute best card for my mood board.

Just got a great set of emails from the FBI.

My kids have begged me to take a little social media break because they think the news affecting me at home, which proves they are much smarter than I am. So I think I’ll follow their advice. I’m sure when I come back I’ll have plenty of opportunity to be grief stricken.

Report Says Colorado School Shooting Suspect Was Fascinated with Mass Shootings, White Supremacy and Neo-Nazi Views | Since December, Desmond Holly, 16, had been active on an online forum where users watch videos of killings and violence, mixed in with content on white supremacism and antisemitism.

Those pundits who were holding up Gov. Spencer Cox as a fount of morality and moderation the last couple of days really need to get their hearing checked, at the very least.

losing my mind at this dispatch from the college roommates group chat

If you’re trying to avoid being outraged, may I suggest you not listen to this week’s This American Life, whose theme is about the censorship going on at American universities. I am muttering and shaking in my car.

next Dem president should give every one of these guys a million bucks, just for starters. and hold a festival in Seoul where they get to take turns pelting Stephen Miller with rotten fruit for a week

Their marinara sauce is so delicious, but their regular clientele is so atrocious.

I’m watching Instagram videos muted while exercising at my gym so I don’t bother other people, and the computer-generated subtitles called “groypers” “gropers,” and that’s probably an accurate mistake.

And the FBI didn’t catch the shooter, his father turned him in, Krazy-Eyes.

For those who heard the strikeout whistle when Donald Trump was shown on the video screen at Yankee stadium last night, I’m told it was played accidentally. I was told the technician meant to click on “Hail To The Chief” but pressed the whistle by mistake.

it really is astonishing how quickly it goes from “civil war” and “blood in the streets” to “wow guys it’s just a sad tragedy” when it becomes inconvenient

I’m relieved my constituent Rami Othmane, a Tunisian green-card applicant battling a brain tumor, has finally been released, but we cannot ignore his wrongful detention and the inhumane conditions he experienced.

CVS is very ”come at me bro” about encouraging vaccinations which I really appreciate.

a bunch of pundits singing "candle in the wind" for a guy that would have happily have them executed is a very strange exercise

My commentary on current events:

Moments like this are when we really need a functioning Doonesbury www.cnn.com/2025/09/09/p...
