so far the message i’m getting from TASK is that crime pays and is also a great way to bond with your male friends.

I spent my childhood trying to hide my Delco accent, and to think I could have been making the big bucks as an accent consultant.

Implication to me is Ruffalo is Midwestern who came there for work

some of the delco accents in TASK are better than others, but some of them are indeed spot-on

This sums up my thinking almost to the letter.

This is correct.

Yes. This. Thank you.

so about last night…

i paid for the coke with scrooge money ☹️

you libs can prattle all you like about gdp this and unemployment that and civil rights this and worlds strongest military that. it doesn’t matter. it doesn’t suffice. because no matter what you say, let me tell you: cheryl is NOT walking through my front door. not a chance. no way. not happening.

Here is the requested take: publiccomment.blog/p/mamdani-th...

this country is self-evidently experiencing an utter collapse in morals, order, and indeed sanity: my wife left me.

Character is a big issue in this country

this is incredible content

your "there will never be a diddy kong racing 2. grow up and get over it" skeet was controversial but calling you a "joyless husk" is really excessive

like judas of old / you lie and deceive / AGI can be ours! / you want me to believe

to disprove those who say i am a joyless husk in the shape of a human being with no soul or capacity to understand - much less actually feel - love and generosity, i am going to spend the entire day railing against someone who said i am a joyless husk in the shape of a human being without a soul

It sounds like Piker's contributions here were helpful, mature, responsible and productive — as always

this is senator for: i’m not only not mad but actually i am laughing

OSCAR ISAAC, on whether he'd return to "Star Wars": ".. Yeah. I mean, I’d be open to it, although right now I’m not so open to working with Disney. But if they can kinda figure it out and, you know, not succumb to fascism, that would be great." @variety.com $DIS variety.com/2025/film/ne...

everyone knows what real cool kids do is spend 19 years per day in a casino

there was an incredibly stark change at my job between 2023 and 2025. just absolutely day and night.

it's amusing that Jonathan Lethem's review of ONE BATTLE AFTER ANOTHER attacks it for not bombing a walmart

well that settles it. I guess i'll have to read while driving, hopefully nothing goes wrong

i retain information better when it’s communicated to me aurally. you cannot govern me.

a fair question to ask these folks - and there are reasonable answers, but they should obligated to provide them - is why they value a government run by donald trump more than they value a government not run by donald trump? the answer, i suspect, will reflect a view of trump as "aberrantly normal"

Oh no, New Hampshire wins the "Shittiest State" contest by a mile now: BOTH our Senators caved, despite having the "out" of retirement. It is the shanda-est shanda.

are you having trouble keeping up with all the developments in the redistricting wars? no worries @christianpaz.bsky.social has got you covered

his comms team:

i think it should be abundantly clear by now that the voters of maine are not sending us their best.

the fact that multiple reports have suggested a fear that republicans would follow trump’s demands and abolish the filibuster motivated Ds to fold is incredibly damning and is a reminder that the senate itself is a major problem for those who want to save & revive american democracy.

idk which possibility is more damning for Schumer either A) he helped orchestrate the fold OR B) he genuinely opposed the fold but was so incompetent that he was unable to stop the splinter group from folding
