“I’m resigning from my position as Democratic leader and retiring from the Senate.”

Enjoying a cup on National Coffee Day! #coffee

Me, Ryan, and our moms the day they took us to the go-kart track.

Hmmm. I wonder what happened recently that prompted the UN decision to tackle the problem of dementia?

As Netanyahu addresses the United Nations in New York City this morning, the world recoils in horror at the ongoing genocide in Gaza.

My new five favorite NFL teams.

Wow. From an article in The Guardian.

In London, hate will never win.

The amount of shit I got for this segment at the time was astronomical, and it was all from people who now stalk CVS employees to get them fired for insufficient online sadness. Cheering on political violence is both evil and not new, an outgrowth of an internet intentionally dismantled years ago.

This guy? This guy is your hero? The guy who dropped out of Harper Community College after one semester? This genius? www.instagram.com/reel/DOcVk5y...

Practicing politics the right way? Flags at half staff for this man?

Just thinking about how the right made up an entirely fictional left wing character that resulted in so many bomb threats and the like and nobody will face consequences. But people on the left who accurately clocked the victim’s life work lost jobs.

Je Suis Charlie

Way to go, K(C)ash Patel and the notorious FBI, for apprehending the shooter who *checks notes* turned himself in. (Don't forget to say "See you in Valhalla.")

"I'll see you in Valhalla." Good. Lord. Cosplay bad-ass.

Go woke or go stroke

Jules, this is Brian. Listen, I'm on an airplane that's been hijacked. If things don't go well, and it's not looking good, I just want you to know I absolutely love you. I want you to do good, go have good times. Same to my parents and everybody, and I just totally love you, and I'll see you when ..

Charlie Kirk and his organization helped fund and send rioters to the Capitol on January 6 to overturn a national election and overthrow the government. That’s who Charlie Kirk was.

A second coming that doesn't try to fix the darkness, but shows a way through it. Filled with sex & guilt & strings & grandeur & Texas & Scotland & rebuilding & singing that opens up spaces. A rather wonderful new album from @emmaswiftsings.bsky.social. www.bernardzuel.net/post/emma-sw...

🧵 An open letter to the US Open and USTA: Trump will attend the #USOpen as a guest of ROLEX. Yesterday, Trump declared 'WAR' on Chicago. The USTA has called for media censorship of dissent against Trump today. I played NCAA tennis many years ago and still play. Today I resign my #USTA membership.

#HandsOffChicago (#DCStatehood NOW)

Chicago forever

The President of the United States just essentially declared a war on Chicago because — wait for it! — Black and Brown people live here. This is not normal. This is not okay. And we are going to fucking fight back.

Yea for me! Special delivery direct from the Soft Boys themselves! #UnderwaterMoonlight #SoftBoys

One of the many sad fruits of aging (count ‘em 🤣) is the slow yet sudden realization that not just your tastes or your reference points are out of date: your very attitude is obsolete, and belongs in a museum, or, failing that, a podcast…

Illinois Gov. Pritzker ahead of Trump National Guard deployment: "To Chicagoans... Look out for your communities and your neighbours. Know your rights. Film things that you see happening... Authoritarians thrive on your silence. Be loud for America."

Take a look at some of my 2025 tomato harvest none of which were found in the Epstein Files.

My favorite evergreen Molly Ivins quote: "I prefer someone who burns the flag and then wraps themselves up in the Constitution over someone who burns the Constitution and then wraps themselves up in the flag."

Got this letter today from Bandcamp. Are we great again yet or what? #trumptariff

International Dog Day. Here’s Coco.

The dog sleeping position laboratory continues to innovate in ways we could never imagine.

Now this is a journalist who deserves respect.

World War II ended with Russian troops using tanks and rifles to negotiate their way into Berlin, a bullet negotiating its way into Hitler's skull, and an atomic bomb negotiating its way onto Hiroshima. But it did not end with Churchill and FDR negotiating to give Hitler big chunks of Poland.

@secrubio.govpeeps.us I guess you stopped, huh?

Patricia Neal night on TCM. Didn’t realize until tonight how in love with her I was.

They’ve tried to erase us for centuries. Didn’t work then, won’t work now. Black history IS American history.

New— Nazis with giant swastika flags marched in downtown Indianapolis on Saturday with two police escorts. They shouted “white power” and said to the woman who took this video (reshared here with her permission) “fuck you, n***** bitch.” Police did not intervene. I cannot find local news coverage.

Daily smile for today... 😊 #bluesky

Clapping for your boss when he walks into your performance review.

He's clapping for Vladimir Putin. As a Cold War kid, I never imagined I would see the day when the sitting President of the United States (regardless of party) would be so completely owned by the leader of Russia.

Rescuing Pringles that got wedged in the can like they're Baby Jessica.

It has arrived! Yaysville! (Located next door to Yeasville.) Thanks @emmaswiftsings.bsky.social and tiny ghost records! Happy release day for “The Resurrection Game”. Order your copy today.

It’s a good year for sun sugar tomatoes in our garden this year. Some of today’s bounty. #sunsugar

Did you ever think you'd be thinking, "It's time to boycott The Smithsonian Museum."?

Fuck it. I’m releasing these. The police seized all of my lasers during this operation. I have a court date in my future. #FreeLordLaser #FreeLadyLaser I will tell the whole story later. But it was all worth it to release these images on this day. “Good men must not obey the law too well.”

Me: buys light bulbs at the hardware store. The hardware store: DON’T FORGET TO REVIEW YOUR PURCHASE OF LIGHT BULBS!!
