Why do I always want to sing both parts????? 😭😭 (I miss performing a teeny, tiny bit. Maybe. I don’t miss the time suck.)

I have the most insane joke about Pelops, but it’s in bad taste.

a literal car dealer trying to sanction another country for wildfire smoke really gets at the essence of climate politics

Fit for The Odyssey tonight. I think it’s thematic.

So now the Eighth Amendment no longer exists (at least in Florida). Cool cool. The Constitution is rapidly disintegrating as we continue to blink helplessly wondering what the fuck is going on.

In just one day, Trump engaged in massive corruption by selling early access to his Truth Social posts, rehashed patently false conspiracy theories & threatened to revoke tv licenses for not broadcasting his propaganda. He’s a disgrace. He’s a criminal. He needs to be removed from office & jailed.

Have y'all ever been in close proximity to a wildfire? I have. The smoke was so intense they sent us home from work. You could literally move it around in the air in front of you. We need to take harsh action against climate change now. Not tomorrow. Not next week. Not next year. NOW.

People have become jaded to it, but a President who threatens to outlaw media in a free society should be immediately removed from office. Trump's words are completely antithetical to the core American commitments of free speech and free press.

“Who was president from 2017-2021?” is somehow the defining question of our time. Because everyone from the big orange bloated man himself to his most craven, obsequious supporter could not answer this question if their lives depended on it. And all our lives do. Fuck. This. Shit.

So NOW Senate Republicans ditch comity? Will @democrats.senate.gov FINALLY fucking give it a rest and realize that none of these ghouls are your friends, none of them have an ounce of respect for you, and it’s BEYOND time to wake up and realize it’s up to you and you alone to work for the People.

Trvmpism, all the way down, is making us spiritually and physically sick.

When Democrats fought to extend the Florida recount in 2000, Republicans blanketed the airwaves with this stuff, even printing up Sore/Loserman signs that mimicked the Gore/Lieberman campaign. It was very effective! Trump *is* a sore loser and he *is* throwing a sad tantrum. Call it out like that!

We should bear this in mind when Trvmp says whatever the fuck he’s going to say tonight. Don’t listen to their bluster; take a good, hard look at their actions. Judge them based on what they do, not just what they say, because with these men in particular, they’re always fucking lying.

Who is actually to blame for these wildfires:

I guess it's something the judge called it out, but fake citations routinely get lawyers sanctioned and that should have happened here. The standard of conduct for DOJ lawyers should be *higher* than for private attorneys, not lower.

Everything is just so fucking bleak, man

I’m in danger

Lol at the job I’ve been applying for for years being open *again* after making it through several rounds of interviews time and again, and honestly I’m just over it. They can get fucked.

So what are the chances that this agreement a client gave me that's full of random capitalization and double spaces between words is just AI-generated slop? I love 2026.

I would just like to highlight here that even bags of meth (or any other drug) do not create justification for the use of deadly force. Even if the subject is fleeing.

Oh FFS

Are we great yet? In more seriousness, though, this is indicative of the “running America like a business” mindset that the conservative movement has endeavored to implement for decades now. Sheer shortsighted ruthlessness. And it is a fucking disaster for health, for diplomacy, for our future.

So literally everywhere is on fire at some point these days, and we still have people saying that this is fine and normal and that green energy would somehow be worse. I struggle to contain my rage at the people who are actively killing us.

Camera

Not a single reference to the Fourth Amendment… what the fuck are we doing?

Keep seeing government contracts jobs for contractors. And it’s soooooo infuriating that we laid off so many civil servants only to outsource the work for more money. It’s the worst of the private sector imposed upon government. And it’s spectacularly inefficient. But I’m sure someone’s raking in $.

Maybe the insistence about the ICC was specifically because the American government is planning to commit war crimes in Iran. All the more reason to be a full member to the Rome Statute and to send Trvmp, Vance, Rubio, and Hegseth (at a minimum) to The Hague.

I’m not an expert, but using Biden-era HHS info, the same $5 billion RFK wants to piss away on fraud could fund development of perhaps 5-8 new vaccines. (Maybe more, given the cost-saving insights that came out of COVID vaccine development.)

We’re out here spending half a billion to build an ordnance factory in fucking Mesquite which hasn’t produced a single shell, so don’t fucking tell me about “waste, fraud, and abuse” by government programs that ensure people can eat food.

Our government was defunded and systematically dismantled which means it cannot currently provide essential services like … telling you what products are causing you to have explosive diarrhea. This is government run by conservative ideologues & crony capitalists. They don’t care about you at all.

What the fuck is Reece James doing? He keeps jumping back, always playing the Argentina wingers onside….

wait okay so I’m like five minutes into “Project Hail Mary” and there’s a robot named Mary and a guy whose last name is Grace????

Whatever update macOS just did just fucked my mouse. Yay.

just worth emphasizing here that there's no way to deport 30 million people without committing genocide. ethnic cleansing on this scale always, always leads to mass death, and is intended to.

The natural history collections at the University of Texas, holding maybe 5 million specimens, is partly closed down because our buildings are falling apart and UT is doing the bare minimum of life support. We could fix it for 1/5th the price of a vanity purchase of a single dinosaur specimen.

Marco Rubio oversaw the closure of USAID with no input from Congress, and this is how they are using taxpayer money

ESPN losing another league? What are they doing that they lost the Bundesliga to FANDANGO, which has never offered live sports before and is primarily a website where you buy tickets to the cinema? The streaming wars have become a bit ridiculous if I’m honest. Who benefits here?

I've been there for a while on public land use. Haaland played nice with these fuckers on grazing rights and such. The management plans were gentle. But it's never enough. So, when we get the chance... super-sized national monuments in Utah, and kick the welfare ranchers off our land.

We are witnessing the rape and pillaging of America.

All he knows is grift. Corruption is mother’s milk to him.

My god. The Heritage Foundation, which mercilessly attacked transgender kids in order to protect the "integrity of women's sports," is now attacking the legal basis for women's sports. The transgender student decision is barely 2 weeks old.

People are sleeping on El Niño btw

Every single fucking “journalist” at the fucking White House better ask him, “If foreign election interference occurred under your watch, why didn’t you stop it?”

every single one of these is an impeachable offense

Client: I know I just called you, but can I call you again, but this time on video? Me: *screams*

corporate donors bought themselves tickets to a corrupt buying spree ahead of simmering public sentiment in favor of anti-trust boiling over and they got exactly what they paid for

Not Sam Neill 😭😭😭😭😭 Why him before *HIM*?!?

Miss Lemon is such an icon
