Get in losers, we’re grieving

no, i didn't mean to tell you that. there's shrimp in the rice. don't be stupid. you're being stupid.

Charlie's legacy is repression, and perhaps, now that his loudest acolytes are screaming it on live TV, some of the abject fools who posted so much nauseating fanfic last week might rethink their role in abetting it

* Angrily shakes fist at all the people who said we shouldn't call them "weird" *

What the picture doesn't show is Lee Greenwood singing "Proud to be an american" in the background as the pyro goes off. This is the tackiness singularity

Bearing a cross on wheels is a great metaphor for Christian oppression

I don’t know how we are ever going to be able to repent for this as a nation — but we owe it to ourselves to think creatively now about what re-engaging the world in a way they will believe actually looks like

Ladies and gentlemen, the meritocracy

Tom Homan took a bag of cash from an undercover FBI agent the right way. by Ezra Klein

In response to California passing a law limiting law enforcement officers' ability to conceal their identities, the president of the Peace Officers Research Association of California contends that police are not subject to democratic control. www.nytimes.com/2025/09/20/u...

Horst Wessel's funeral was a big production number, too.

It strikes me that quite a lot of people knew for the last year that the guy running our horrific deportation squads took a bag with $50k in cash from undercover FBI agents investigating corruption, and it didn’t get out until now.

All the data we have suggests this is indeed the case, that this president thinks there's one definition of "asylum" and every time someone says "asylum-seekers" his pudding-brain flashes pictures of cartoon villains and threats to Gotham

NEW: Air Force jets are doing ICE flights to Africa with transponders turned off, making them nearly un-trackable. This includes the third-country removal to Ghana and another secret flight. We figured out where it landed. From me for @rollingstone.com: www.rollingstone.com/politics/pol...

love to open the Bad News and Bad Feelings App 30 times a day by reflex

If you're looking for state races where your donation can do some real work, I humbly suggest this one. Sarah Trone Garriott is a real one, and that district is absolutely winnable

More than that. "The FBI ***recorded*** Tom Homan taking the money "after indicating he could help the agents — who were posing as business executives — win government contracts in a second Trump administration."

AND THEN THEY LOST. THEY ALL FUCKING LOST TO REPUBLICANS. IT WAS FIFTEEN YEARS AGO AND THEY NEVER GOT ELECTED AGAIN BECAUSE PEOPLE JUST VOTED FOR THE REPUBLICAN. DO ACTUALLY NOT FUCKING COMPREHEND WHY THAT HAPPENED

There is no world in which it is normal for the president to publicly call upon his attorney general to hurry up and prosecute his political foes. It’s like the Watergate tapes but posted on social media. Let’s get a grip on what’s happening here.

Post now deleted, more or less confirming it was a DM. Great opsec!

it was literally in a bag www.nytimes.com/2025/09/20/u...

Don’t correct me when I confuse fallon and kimmel I do not want to know more about American talk shows than I already have to

At the grocery store, getting rickrolled in the dairy aisle

I’ve had 30/30* seasons for the past decade. *30 outstanding ungraded assignments and 30 existential panic attacks

JOSE RAMÍREZ 30-30 SEASON FUCK YEAH

No the fuck it isn’t. Mastodon is a goddamned garbage fire snd I am sick to death of people extolling its virtues like Black folks haven’t long since pointed out the enduring structural racism of the platform.

They’re putting in place a patronage network. Instead of open, accountable structures, public goods will be allocated to courtiers.

An idiotic claim like this should make people question everything else Ezra says

I deactivated my Facebook when it gave me an actual notification inviting me to join their Dating service, enticing me (GenX) with pictures of three young women adjacent to my network. One of them was my buddy's nineteen year old daughter I was present for the birth of. PedoCon theory abides.

Minorities are always the bellwether. It is a straight line from kicking little girls off soccer teams to firing Black Admirals to firing white TV hosts. This is why the only way we can defeat fascism is to defeat it. We can't go back to having a little bit of fascism just for minorities.

Lemme spell it out. Trump's only leverage over Jimmy Kimmel and ABC came from FCC regulation. His direct power over H1-B visas gives him similar leverage over tech, higher ed, and others.

Superb @rygraham.bsky.social column on Robert Redford. "He oozed masculinity buffed with charm and kindness instead of insecurity disguised as brutishness." www.bostonglobe.com/2025/09/20/o...

we're going to win

This is so pathetic. we need to stop being afraid of this clown.

All dogs live in hope, Yoshi more so than most.

This reminds me of the pride I took in my Roy Rogers Buckaroo Card. I seemed to age out of it when I hit double digits. No such luck w/ Trump.

Once again, on top of the serious illegality and authoritarian tendencies, it's all So. Fucking. Tacky. It's like a cross between George Lincoln Rockwell and Ron Popeil

The bigger the hate and judgment, the bigger the repression. X

the fact that a sitting US president is talking about antifascism being terrorism should tell you a lot about what he thinks his own government represents

Too many cis people i've never heard of are lecturing an experienced trans journalist tonight.
