She would be great. Great. She's the strongest leader and most effective voice in the Democratic Party at the moment. She is what the future of American politics looks like and that is a good thing for the country.

A Modest Proposal: The Purge, but you can only snuff tweakers.

Marco Rubio just straight up looks like a sad divorced man at a Motel 6.

The Washington State Republican Party's final four:

"There has never been a civilized yokel." --H.L. Mencken

Early Sunday morning, a driver struck and killed a 38-year-old named Allie who was biking across Beacon Ave S. The driver fled the scene. As a lifelong cyclist who’s had my share of close calls, my heart goes out to Allie’s family and friends.

turning a big dial that says “attacking the navy pilot astronaut senator with the mass shooting survivor former congresswoman wife” and constantly looking back and forth at the approval ratings like a contestant on the price is right

He knows exactly what he did. Down to the numbers. Don't Let this disappear. EVER 🤬

This is because Nate Silver has 300K subscribers on Substack and Heather Cox Richardson has 2.7M. Mediocre men CAN'T STAND successful women, and even blame them for their own failures. Pathetic.

By never falling asleep in public, Joe Biden spread effete elitist expectations about the workplace. Donald Trump is showing real men how it’s done. by Marc Thiessen

David Mamet looked at what Kristi Noem did to her face and said “Do that to my brain”

In just a few hours Dick Van Dyke will be 100 years old. Dick Van Dyke! 100! Here he is chatting with Sid James (filming Carry On Up The Khyber) on the Chitty Bang Bang backlot.

Old Hoss Radbourn, baseball Hall of Famer and first known person to be photographed giving the finger, was born on this date in 1854.

Once more, with feeling: disappointment requires expectations.

This would be a wonderful gift! 🎁 Thank you, Santa! #Pinks #ProudBlue #Christmas #Impeach

Bari Weiss is a MAGA propagandist. She wrote glowingly about the “Dark Web.” She’s literally a monster. #RIPRealNews

The climate crisis is causing warm rain to fall in December, generating floods while setting up serious summer drought due to the lack of a mountain snowpack

The fact that we have super wealthy and extremely stupid people trying to set themselves up as new nobles has made historical nobility, which I only know from books, far more real to me. These people were not smart, they did not rule well, and rigid hierarchies of domination are very bad.

It’s been two weeks since ICE took Yuanxin Zheng from his father. He is six years old. He’s still not home. This has to end.

70 years ago Barry Goldwater knew what would happen if "these 'preachers' got control of the Republican party". We're seeing the results daily with this cult. They ought to scare you more today than Goldwater was back then. In their crazed minds, no evil is too evil, if done in the name of Jesus.

I lost my job, there are no toys on the shelves, and the only hospital within 100 miles of my house just closed. But at least I know that now there won't be any non-binary characters on Paw Patrol.

Interesting article explaining why the author believes Trump has Frontotemporal dementia, rather than just Alzheimer's. It fits the symptoms.

I’m sure everyone hurt by Trump’s policies would like a government bailout, but apparently those only go to farmers who can’t sell their products to other countries.

That's called a Dictatorship.

It appears the Epstein survivors are going to be a major factor in the salvation of America from the likes of Trump and his buddies, including Epstein.

Even Roger, as brilliant as anyone who wrote about film in the late 20th C, wasn't exempt from having the occasional Pauline Kael moment. (His reviews of just about anything by David Lynch are another sad reminder of this.)

The garbage emanating from Nextdoor and your local subreddit are both the result of the worst transplants joining forces with the worst townies.

One of the more pernicious effects of Trumpism is that it's almost impossible to set boundaries with unedjumacated white lumpenproles...for those of us (i.e., me) unfortunate enough to have to keep the company of these dolts, it's a miserable situation right out of some James Dickey fever dream.

Good fucking riddance

Now that Vanity Fair dropped Nuzzi can we have Teen Vogue back?

J.D. Vance is Nixon in drag.

The great social problem of our time is knuckle-dragging white people with absolute dogfood for brains.

This aged well (ConorF)

They’re killing people as a twitter joke. It’s depraved. Can’t let yourself lose the capacity to be appalled and disgusted and outraged by this.

What he said: 💯 🎯

The great irony of Trump's push for AI is that his supporters (1) have the most to lose under its implementation and (2) are the biggest argument for its increased use.

It’s gotten difficult to link to sources in 2025 because so many of them are paywalled - and still failing because normies can’t afford subs to every news site. The free sites are overwhelmingly right wing propaganda sites, funded by billionaires with very deep pockets. Seems like a problem.

Being landlocked makes people stupid, ignorant and intolerant.

Rachel Campos-Duffy misrepresented a video that was made by Democratic lawmakers who reminded active duty service members that they were not obliged to follow ILLEGAL orders. Campos-Duffy dropped the word "illegal" from her description of the video. It's repeated throughout.

Russia failed to conquer Ukraine. So Trump is handing Putin what he couldn’t win on the battlefield. Territory. Limits on Ukraine’s military. And $300B in assets. Shameful. Dangerous. Unacceptable. open.substack.com/pub/adamkinz...

Mounting evidence casts doubt that those killed—who now number over 80—were even trafficking drugs to the United States. And now, Trump is pardoning the Honduran ex-president convicted of crimes relating to flooding the U.S. with cocaine. What’s the case for these bombings? trib.al/xNUvxwZ

Pretty noteworthy. A Red State education miracle turns mirage. In short: MS used to pass 3rd graders who couldn't read into the 4th grade. So when all 4th graders took reading tests, as a group, they didn't read good. When the state stopped promoting poor readers, 4th grade scores soared! Oops.
