Happy #caturday

The NY Times interviewed over 30 of Epstein’s former employees, victims, & associates. The result is one of the most revealing looks into Trump’s sex crimes and friendship with Epstein seen in years. We’ve condensed the massive story into a TIMELINE of some sex crimes related to Trump . . .

The House Across the Street from the Girl in the Window is so good (2022, Netflix)! It’s deadpan, black comedy and has the tropes and bizarre circumstances that make me laugh out loud. Part of my thrill was figuring out that it was a comedy without realizing what my wife was watching. So well done!

#funwithfraudsters I’m going to start posting my fun little interactions with pig butchering fraudsters. Here’s the one from this morning.

The Nobel Prize committee should announce the World Cup winner tomorrow

The problem with scammers and loneliness these days is that everything is digital, so the scammer never gets the chance to fall in love with a plucky local librarian and change his wicked ways. And forget about the implications of not even having to buy a bunch of marching band instruments.

I love it when they complain "but immigrants will change the culture" and I get to respond "yes, they will, which is why you enjoy green beer every St. Patrick's Day even though you have no Irish ancestry. You're welcome."

Don’t forget.

The Rick and Morty Vat of Acid episode (S4E8) is the best 30 minutes of television ever broadcast. Prove me wrong.

Justice Breyer 2021 book 'The authority of the court and the peril of politics:' "Having no influence over the sword or the purse, the Court earns its authority by making decisions that increase the public’s trust." Our trust is their legitimacy, & they're losing it. www.amazon.com/Authority-Co...

Guys, every person you see on Fox News in a mask is just Robert O'Neill, retired Navy Seal and occasional Fox News contributor. He's the former Antifa, former Gazan, former gang member. His eyes are very unique.

Dr. Jane Goodall filmed an interview with Netflix in March 2025 that she understood would only be released after her death.

They dismembered a journalist. I think Chapelle thinks free speech means people have to laugh at unfunny jokes.

Here's the thing that these "debates" miss: If you use a gun to fight what you perceive as a tyrannical government then you've been influenced by decades of right-wing rhetoric--the "insurrectionist theory of the 2nd Amendment"--regardless of what specific policy or policies you see as tyrannical.

What’s all this talk about The Raptor? Who even knows what they mean? An F-150, a bird, a rocket, a dinosaur? And why do evangelicals want any of those things?

@pftompkins.bsky.social @janiehaddad.bsky.social you guys have seen the goes wrong show, right? As someone who has no involvement in your professions, it blows my mind how good they are at intentionally writing in mistakes (they’re not all 10/10, but I still love them).

@alisonrosen.bsky.social @gregproops.bsky.social This one’s for you

Watching the full Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt series and Ellie Kemper is amazing, even if the series isn’t perfect (yes, I’m about 7 years behind schedule).

Opposing political violence requires that we condemn Charlie Kirk’s death. Opposing political violence also requires that we condemn Charlie Kirk’s life. Charlie Kirk spent his life encouraging his allies on the far-right to think violence was legitimate and concerns about it were fake.

When you publish a website that posts the names and photos of scholars who have written or said things you disagree with and encourage people to surveil and harass them, you are not, in fact, a “free speech” organization.

A short explanation of p-hacking and why it absolutely makes sense to ask HHS to release the study methods of their autism report in advance.

This just came up on my feed. It’s just so good. youtu.be/2CIgWX1J_s8?...

The guy that ordered 8 fighter jets to perform a low altitude fly-over in an effort to drown out Epstein survivors is the same guy who wants you to believe he's innocent.

"Ashli Babbitt was a grown ass adult who made a series of conscious, ill-advised decisions to engage in treasonous behavior, and she got exactly what she deserved. She was a traitor. She was a threat to national security. There is no nuance needed here."

@pftompkins.bsky.social I may have had a dream about you last night where you agreed to watch the below video that I find hysterically funny (I have no other affiliation with it). youtu.be/RXJKdh1KZ0w?...

Six months ago. I meant it. Do it now if you haven’t.

Here it is👇🏼Katie Johnson vs. Trump 👇🏼

Reading an article about how big pharma's drugs cause more harm than good. It also claims that vaccines are poison that have killed far more people than they helped. The key to health is good eating habits! The year is 1961, and the magazine is The Good News, put out by the Church of God.

On left: ABC: Ghislaine Maxwell told "Blanche that Trump had never done anything in her presence that would have caused concern." On right: Maxwell said same about Epstein, under oath. DOJ 2022: "Simply put, the defendant lies when it suits her." Whatever is the truth, she's no source for it.

@alisonrosen.bsky.social Your laughing at the notion of genocide with Greg Proops several months ago is why I stopped listening.

#rockfordfiles rewatch update: season 4 ends with a two-parter where they catch a corporation building a secret data center to house private information about all Americans. Impressive that they imagined this in 1978, depressing that no one stopped it in real life with so much warning.

Palette cleanser: wife spotted this doe bedding down for the night in our front yard. #deer #wildlife

Corporations aren’t people, money isn’t free speech, and we need to End Citizens United. Repost if you agree.

A little math about that prison camp in Florida. $450 million per year for 3,000 people is $150,000/person per year. The cost for one person receiving SNAP for one year is $2256, yet they're telling us that's too expensive.

#rockfordfiles Starting rewatch of the classic series. S1E1 has a very young James Woods having to manually develop Jim’s film in his personal dark room, in his mansion.

Dear Corient Wealth Management, do you really think people who have to watch YouTube with ads need wealth management?

View from Nemo trail, Kent Island, MD.

A restaurant called “Don’t fill up on that” where all we serve are the free bread courses from other restaurants. Cheddar Bay biscuits, chips and salsa, brown bread from Outback, breadsticks from the Olive Garden, and the servers are always all “now don’t fill up on this” and we all laugh and laugh

this internet was a mistake, but sometimes it’s the best thing ever created

Just incredible

I thinks it’s ironic how these fucking ignoramuses are trying to burn down a system that has made and kept them super rich. Like, they don’t see how they’re the ultimate beneficiaries of our status quo and they want to destroy it😐😆
