One would generally not expect following the literal dictionary to be so entertaining. You're killing it @merriam-webster.com !

Every word.

Vaccinate your kids, people.

I really, really, REALLY wanted this to be a joke. www.wired.com/story/whites...

JFC.

Lol... Whoopsie! Pro tip - you should hard launch before engaging in PDA.

Wow. I never thought I'd see the day when I could confidently say I know more about Constitutional law than the Supreme Court, but yet, here we are.

"Some have raised questions about whether cuts to the National Weather Service and other federal emergency management agencies impacted the ability to provide accurate weather warnings." Look, I don't proclaim myself to be a smart man, but I'm pretty sure we don't need Sherlock Holmes for this one.

For the first time in my life, I didn't celebrate the 4th. My wife and I stayed home and watched 'The Bear' (great show, BTW. Good job @fxnetworks.com). Why didn't I celebrate? Here's an excellent piece from @theverge.com that sums it up very nicely. www.theverge.com/policy/69730...

Spot on. It’s happening right now…this is how it starts.

Call your senators, people. youtu.be/vjFL-cBcjKc?...

Just noting, this answer from @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social is... about as perfect as you can get regarding a gotcha question about policing speech. He sidesteps the gotcha, expresses support for actual free speech, not policing speech, while speaking clearly to the *actual* concerns at issue.

just saw a group of masked men stuffing masked ICE agents into an unmarked car, who were saying "we're ICE we're ICE!" but the abductors shouted to the crowd "no we're ICE!" no one knew who was ICE, so no one in the crowd said anything.

Orientation - ✔️ My daughter is officially a @setonhall.bsky.social pirate. I'll be weeping in the corner.

Sen Mike Lee & the silence from Republicans made it clear: decency is in the rearview mirror. After he mocked a political assassination, Ed Shelleby, a senior staffer to Sen Tina Smith, wrote to Lee’s top staffers. @lawrenceodonnell.msnbc.com read it on-air, and honestly everyone should hear it.

Just in case anyone needs some carpet or upholstery cleaning in the MA or NH area, here's a business you probably don't want to use - www.reddit.com/r/Portsmouth...

Lol... You may be on to something there!

Look, I'm not trying to harsh anyone's vibe, but here's the deal - if there is 'ample evidence', then show it. Five fucking years of stolen election bullshit is quite enough for me, so either put up or shut up. No vague-skeeting please.

Huh. Got this odd craving for tacos tonight. Strange for a Wednesday, eh?

Andor nails it — Many of Nazism's earliest supporters ended up in the camps. The man who wrote 'First They Came For' was an anti-communist Minister who cheered the incarceration of socialists. The poem is a warning about the dangers of supporting authoritarianism that you think works for you.

In related news: the speaker of the house is a liar

One of the benefits of being a dance Dad - exposure to music I would never hear otherwise since it's not on the playlist I've been listening to since college.

It’s not that they don’t know what the constitution says. They know what it says. Just like they knew what it said when they asked Pence to ignore it. They just don’t care. They believe it can be rewritten by bending it to their will, if enough of them decide to do it.

If you haven't watched the video, you should. I encourage you to wait until the end. Worth it.

Science for the win!!

A reminder not to store red sauce in Tupperware.

Yep.

More of this please. www.techdirt.com/2025/05/05/j...

Mike Waltz has left the chat.

History does not repeat itself, but it often rhymes.

I know it's like a broken record, but I'm honestly shocked that each passing day provides a new level of stupidity. Like, is there even a bottom??

Here's a sereritonin booster. Meet Fenway (big) and Charlee (small).

“Voters didn’t turn out for Democrats last November - not because they don’t want us to fight for our values, but because they think we don’t want to fight for our values. We need to knock off the rust of poll-tested language, decades of stale decorum. It’s obscured our better instincts.” - Pritzker

Everyone should listen to @lastweektonight.com take down the mutherfucker that is RFK Jr. Spoiler alert - RFK Jr. is full of shit.

And now, a note on Bill Owens who, until this past week, was the executive producer of 60 Minutes. We’ll be back next week with another edition of 60 Minutes.

TIL: There's a list of self-identified MAGA businesses.

JFC... These people make my head hurt.
