I think the word you’re looking for is “kept”

Just occurred to me that the odds of us all dying penniless have gone way up

How hilarious would it be if Harmeet Dhillon ends up costing Republicans control of the House?

I mean, there's something to be said for terrible people all sleeping with each other so they're not inflicting their terribleness on anyone who's halfway decent

Wait what?

FB status 10 years ago today. (I think the context was the Two Minute Hate directed at Syrian refugees.)

Oh hey, I found the war on christmas

2nd richest person in the world mocking someone for not having a car and living in a tiny rented apartment is a really good look for the Post, keep up the good work

Yesterday I returned a recalled product to Costco that had cost $9.99, and the woman at the refund counter asked me if I had a penny. I was so excited to be able to *use* a penny, possibly for the last time.

I read an excerpt from that book and

What perfect album came out the year you turned 16?

My top five movie genres: - Val Lewton - Filmed in Almeria - Barbara Stanwyck is three steps ahead of everyone else - Jean-Pierre Melville - Gloomy

Don’t want no commies in my car. No Christians either.

The only thing cheaper under Trump is human life.

If you need me, tap me on the shoulder. I’ll be happily working all day listening to this on a loop.

A favorite of mine since I was a kid

This is NOT what Depeche Mode had in mind

The pyramids look very different from what I imagined

They had a choice back in 2016 (and, really, every point since): either reject Trump and get better, or go along with him and get worse. And keep getting worse as he does.

Good morning to everyone who wasn’t email buddies with Jeffrey Epstein

This is a thread of all of my photo threads on Bluesky Eastern Sierra fall color, October 2024: bsky.app/profile/tvhi...

Bridge on the River Kwai (1957)

What? So bummed that they're not renewing for S3, even if I didn't love S2 as much as the first season. But Peter Dinklage...I'm intrigued.

Chunky Sidney Sweeney

What's from Chicago, hates Illinois Nazis, and is holy as fuck? It's the Pope in 1982.

Iron Chef back in the '90s when they were showing it on a foreign-language-programming station here and nobody I knew had heard of it.

Exactly. More Democrats means, ultimately, better Democrats.

Is someone keeping track of the TPRC (Trump Pardon Recidivism Count)? Because it seems like that would be a good idea.

All I'll say about the cave is this: there was never a good outcome possible. It was never going to achieve the stated objective. There's legit criticism of the timing, and of how the optics were handled. There's cause for a leadership challenge down the line. But this was never going to go well.

Happy Marriage Is Marriage Day to all who celebrate

Fuck all that stupid politics shit. Here are some photos.

Grok: "Joyce Carol Oates is entirely correct. Elon Musk is the most joyless person not named Donald Trump."

The chicken is tofu, the noodles are rice, there’s no broth, and they don’t have it anyway

Vertigo, where we’re supposed to buy the ridiculous premise that Barbara Bel Geddes isn’t orders of magnitude hotter than Kim Novak

OK

Still working out the kinks in those AI-generated ads

You see? Trump's cronies are just regular working folks like the rest of us. /s

That she's a scab is only the second most on-brand Bari Weiss thing ever. The most on-brand thing, also discussed in this piece, is using the Tree of Life massacre to argue that opposition to Israel is anti-semitism.

Always good! (I'm sure she isn't, since she was appointed by Trump. But in this case, she's really good.)

To be fair, only the DOJ is working hard. Congressional Republicans aren't doing shit.

Happy Friday to all who celebrate

To be clear if I collapse in a public setting I too would appreciate it if our current HHS secretary ran in the opposite direction

BURN IT DOWN

When it comes to Den states, Gol>>>>Gar

This strawman version of "feminism" is so old it could have great-great grandchildren. Not exaggerating here--you can see this shit in movies from the 1930s.
