For no particular reason….posting former U.S. Attorney General John Mitchell’s mugshot before he went to Federal prison for committing numerous crimes on behalf and or/at the direction of President Nixon including obstruction of justice and conspiracy.

You know you dont have to call him The Secretary of War, right? It's not a title. It's not a real thing!

Rare true statement from FDA Commissioner Marty Makary

The modern conservative panic is fueled by juvenile tantrums, of people clinging to hierarchies until their fingernails are bloody because they're too contemptuous towards undesirables and offal acquiring even a shred of humanity and dignity. But it's inevitable, and the clock will not turn back.

"Today, on How Its Made..." *sounds of furious hammering*

RE starbucks picket line--the relevant detail is "picket line, do not cross." Pass that along. Proclaiming that you are in no danger of doing so because you are too aesthetically pure to let Starbucks coffee pass your lips is...unhelpful and does not give the impression you perhaps imagine it does.

As of this morning, Starbucks workers across the country are officially ON STRIKE. And we're prepared for this to become the biggest and longest ULP strike in Starbucks history. Say #NoContractNoCoffee with us: DON'T BUY STARBUCKS for the duration of our open-ended ULP strike! $SBUX

It's not just you and honestly I don't know how the military will function if they succeed in doing this, there's a reason ibuprofen is jokingly known as "Ranger candy"

The Epstein files released today did not come from the DOJ's Epstein Files. They came from Epstein's estate. Pam Bondi is still protecting Trump at all costs. Today's release by Democrats was aimed at undermining her efforts. And to make it harder for Donald to pardon Ghislaine Maxwell.

"Oh, what if I get in trouble for leaking it!" Okay, congratulations, that was a really basic moral test and you instantly failed it.

Tapping the XKCD sign again to explain that no, I won't be seeing an aurora tonight. Or at least I really hope not. That would be bad. :)

I cannot help but notice that we still live rent-free in his head. He thinks more about trans women than I do.

The International Olympic Committee is set to ban trans and intersex women from competition. This is despite the fact that for 20 years, the IOC has allowed trans athletes to compete and only 1 has ever competed and none have ever won a medal. www.the-independent.com/sport/olympi...

Happy There Is A Circulatory System Walking Through The Kitchen Day to all who celebrate.

Casual reminder that the myth of “pulling yourself up by your bootstraps” is a cruel hoax designed to convince poor people from all walks of life that the injustices they face are a result of their own actions, rather than an oppressive system rigged against them.

I seem to remember a time when he was *really really concerned* about enforcing compliance. Weird.

"One of the things Trump realized by the end of his first term is that he did not have generals with him when it came to backing his claims of a stolen election or firing on Americans. I think he probably feels like he might have been able to hold onto power if he had a more subservient military."

A Sharon Begley byline, almost 5 years after her death. Upon hearing the news James Watson had died, a STAT reporter said in our Slack, "I wish I could read what Sharon would have written." Incredible news: Sharon in fact did pre-write a Watson obit. And it is masterful and excoriating. 🧪🧬🧫

I know this is pedantic, but Kim Davis was not "jailed for refusing to issue same-sex marriage licenses." She was jailed for contempt of court because she refused to follow a court order (she had stopped issuing all marriage licenses). NYT makes it sound like the Woke Police broke down her door.

There is so much wrong her (the uncanny face, for one) but what gets me is the vibe of 'this impossible thing, having a woman say she'll love you forever and mean it,' - a thing very many, if not most straight men achieve in ceremonies performed in front of all of their friends and family.

BREAKING NEWS: Reports indicate that the Department of War is changing its name to the Department of Slaughter. Pete Hegseth will make the official announcement later today while clubbing a baby seal on live television.

The laws of war are not mere niceties. They are lessons from centuries of blood agreed upon to keep the world more stable. Violating them isn’t hero cop who cuts through red tape to get things done, it’s psycho cop who crosses lines in ways even the rule benders find appalling and must be stopped.

The purges of the trans folks were just the first round. The military failed its ethics test the day it decided we were worth sacrificing.

Real talk: the Military Ethics people are gonna need a Come to (Insert Divinity) soon. I'm deeply unhappy at how we have conducted ourselves. And I take responsibility here. MTF.

BREAKING: Starbucks workers have just authorized a massive strike. Union Starbucks baristas voted to authorize the strike by 92%. Now baristas in over 25 cities could launch an unfair labor practice strike on Thursday, November 13th.

I don’t know how many times I’ve watched this video. I don’t know how we’ve gotten to the point where men in full balaclavas can abduct daycare teachers while they’re watching children. But I do know that this isn’t sustainable. Abolish ICE. There is no way to reform this.

Honestly, one of the great American poems. Arguably the great American poem.

this is correct

Dick Cheney was proud to have normalized state-sponsored torture. That, and the dead of Iraq in an unjust war, constitute his entire legacy. “That’s not funny” is a meme-y cliche but I don’t care about the friend he shot or our jokes about it. Cheney is Kissinger level. He made the world worse.

Teen Vogue eliminated all their Black and trans staff today. It's resegregation in real time.
