Here's my package from the No Kings Day 3 auxiliary protest that occurred outside the MDC after the main march wrapped up. TW for folks: this video features federal and local police violence, but also a heavy dose of "fuck you" attitude from Angelenos of all stripes

I’m about to start crowdfunding for a film I would like to make that’s an improvised comedy à la Christopher Guest/ Mike Leigh. I’m gonna be mildly annoying about it but only because I’m extremely excited about it and unfortunately Hollywood is dead seedandspark.com/fund/treasur...

People in this country go about our daily lives as our government commits atrocity after atrocity. I don’t have words for it.

Me seeing a dog in a store: "A doggy!! Hello! I love you! Ok bye!" /r/orangecounty seeing a dog in a store: "I wish it were legal to murder that dog and their owner."

OH MY FUCKING GOD THIS IS REAL

Take it from me, a man who has become probably the #1 Bill Maher expert on Earth: it's impossible to make a coherent argument that Bill Maher and Hasan Piker are in any way similar aside from "they both talk about politics" and that's still only sort of true of Bill Maher

Big liberal rally happens? Good excuse to punch left. Streamer is popular? Time to punch left. Antisemitism on the rise on the right? Country completely run by rightwing fascists? You better know what it is baby.

me too!

Mad Men rewatch pod continues, with episode 408, The Summer Man, and guest @oldmanweldon.bsky.social www.patreon.com/posts/mad-yo... @mattlieb.bsky.social

NEW MOST DISTURBING BILL MAHER JUST DROPPED! He says his guests look like "Blue Aryan" an "aryan pop group" who he describes as being "kind of hot". I'm pretty sure he means "Prussian Blue", a neo-nazi pop duo that was only active while its twin girl members were between the ages of 11 and 14.

I should hate Mark Carney for running the Liberal Party as the new Progressive Conservatives, but his ongoing and unending humiliation of greasy little weasel Poilievre means I must begrudgingly give it up for him

i usually like to say something along the lines of "this was so fun!" when i go on a good podcast. but this one required me to watch one full hour of Bill Maher

Anyway, new episode of I Hate Bill Maher is out. @jeremykaplowitz.com joined the show to talk about Real Time season 24 episode 8, which was like wall to wall Trump ass kissing. And now we know why! pod.link/1746469734

Congratulations to the first Mark Twain Prize winner who has done soft AIDS denial, defended adult teachers raping their child students, and does not believe in germ theory but DOES believe in humorism!

NOOOOOOO

How do you even look at a Harry Potter adaptation where they made Snape black and think "I bet this will be good, they have a great handle on the material"

no innocents in jenin, no innocents in gaza, no innocents anywhere in iran, no innocents in southern lebanon. none too in yemen. none in syria. vanishingly few innocents in qatar. a worrying shortage of innocents in greek, maltese, and tunisian territorial waters

the girl guides in the UK just kicked out all their trans members specifically bc they were threatened with a lawsuit from a rowling-funded group

My parents are in town and I just hope my three month old baby doesn't say anything political that starts a fight

Sad that Sora, the main character from the "Kingdom Hearts" series of video games, has been shut down. Who will fly the Gummi ship now?

once again: this is not what she wants this may serve the broader political project of the ellisons but it is also not what they want (they want to set the agenda like the murdochs) but bari, particularly? she wants to be seen as a news savant and now she’s a laughingstock she hates it

Long live The Onion.

Eat shit, lol, and long live The Onion.

i could take him

Alan Richson confirmed to be most innocent man in America

It's never mentioned in Western media, but Iran has types of people other than "bearded mullah" and "media-friendly feminist activist" like there's also regular municipal workers, and it's a crime to murder them too. Idk what their politics are, but they don't deserve to be murdered by anyone.

Here’s my interview with Shishir Mehotra, the CEO behind Grammarly’s “expert review” feature which attributed writing advice to people - including me lol - without permission. Or, as you will hear us talk about a lot, compensation. www.theverge.com/podcast/8987...

There was ONE ATC in the tower at LGA during last night's crash. ONE ATC, at LGA!, dealing w ALL air and ground traffic, including a plane filling w a strange smell and no gate to return to. The Pentagon wants $200B for a vanity war, but our ATC towers are empty. Budgets are moral documents.

look at this baby beaver and feel better briefly (@ wildheartrescue on TT)

“There’s no ceasefire,” says Hamdouna’s father. “It’s all talk, for the media. In reality, there’s no ceasefire.”

It's also pretty clear that the Republican-appointed justices do not understand a great deal about how elections are actually administered. Their questions (and especially hypotheticals) are built on weird, paranoid fantasies that do not align with reality. bsky.app/profile/wing...

Hello my Monday friends. Here’s my chat with @jacobsilverman.com about Palantir, Alex Karp, and the Silicon Valley pivot to defense. slate.com/podcasts/wha...

I hate Bronn. Top five all time worst television character.

Hooting and hollering at the Mueller She Wrote lady name searching for people making jokes about her and then QTing them and adding "they're threatening to unalive me".

Wait what the fuck?!

I want fully staffed public pools, and libraries that are cathedrals to public goods and a society where walling yourself off with money is viewed as sociopathic.

Wanted to know who this absolute fucking cretin interviewing him is and her name is "Zanny Minton Beddoes".

Mueller’s FBI persecuted Muslims nationwide. He was responsible for one of the most egregious, systemic violations of civil rights in the history of the FBI, which is saying a whole lot. This was Mueller’s FBI:

I briefly thought one (or both!) of the Krassensteins died and was gearing up for one of the funniest days online ever

I think our horrible president is correct about one thing: Robert Mueller was a bad guy and it's good that he's dead.

After our story was published, the White House called the Kennedy Center and made clear that Maher would not receive the prize. Updated article: www.theatlantic.com/culture/2026...

Also @oldmanweldon.bsky.social I am thinking of you during this difficult time

I honestly cannot accept that this is happening

Chuck Norris doesn't die, death che- ...ah. I see.

Big news —>

You aren't gonna be able to reform this shit, folks. It's over.

Making everyone nervous by saying "check this shit out" while holding my baby

Every time I see a headline that says "John Fetterman explains his (blank)" I just hear in my head Bret Hart calling Sid Vicious a "big stupid dummy"
