Happy 80th, Neil.

the republican party is engaged in a cover up to keep the american people from learning whether president trump is president pedo

re-upping this hilarious story for the evening crowd:

I think the gaudiness is distracting us from him making a "walk of fame" that's literally all just the presidents. It is true that he is one of the 45 most famous people ever to be president.

Here’s video of federal agents doing a drive by pepper spraying that hit a father and his one-year old on Saturday when the Feds were hitting Little Village and Cicero

no amount of state propaganda will ever convince me this man is my enemy

Doorman Stories "At the start of every giving season I’m reminded of Noel. Not only has he been a beloved doorman for decades, but on Wednesday evenings, rain or shine, he organizes a food drive for New York City’s unhoused population." He created The Ellen Macguire Foundation

The way Cindy Lee plays awesome guitar without a strap and just sets it down on the stool is so fucken boss.

actual communism

The pun timer was activated and you only had six minutes to get in

These evil men must encounter justice

Under late Biden a clip like this would have been a five alarm fire (rightfully!)

Flying Squirrel Loves It Every Time

Grateful to spend two days on the Klamath watching chinook, liberated by dam removal, return to streams from which they’d been precluded since the Titanic sank. Fish are everywhere, in numbers that stagger the mind & locations that biologists figured would take years to repopulate. Too beautiful.

This absolutely sucks, Robyn is the best. Hire Robyn.

Holy shit

Like many Americans, Scott Adams had insurance problems. But unlike most people he has powerful friends on social media, and when he asked President Trump for help, he got the cancer drug he needed. n.pr/47yYhti

Quite the messaging by the administration two days before the elections!

How do you even come up with this idea as a Halloween costume? Maybe geniuses do walk among us

We have progressed from data collection to data analysis.

Even winning this year’s Halloween costume prize couldn’t ease Carol’s existential ennui. “Another October, another ghost, another shiny prize. Maybe a pig’s ear would cheer me. Ah nuts, who am I kidding.”

Your periodic tip sheet on how to tell downy and hairy woodpeckers apart. The downy (on the left) is smaller, but without a hairy nearby to compare, notice that it’s beak is about 1/2 as long as its head front to back. The beak of the hairy on the right is as long as its head.

The FBI director is flying his girlfriend around on private government planes while FBI agents go without paychecks and families prepare to go hungry as SNAP benefits are being suspended

"According to his running club, the man, who is a U.S. citizen, was returning from a team run when agents pulled him out of his vehicle, tackled him to the ground and kneeled on top of him, allegedly breaking six ribs and causing internal bleeding"

The cats are doing spells. I'm sure it's fine.

A stat we don't talk about enough: Newspapers have lost 77% of their jobs over the last 20 year, more than any of the 532 other industries tracked by the Bureau of Labor Statistics.

Guillermo del Toro on wealth: "a wealthy man is a man who has enough, not a man that needs more. If you have enough to invite someone for a beer? You're rich. If you have a yacht, planes, islands, and you still need more? You're not rich."

My little Chicagoan heart is swelling with pride at the barefoot guy in Blackhawks pajama pants who clearly just ran directly out of his house to call ICE agents Nazis to their faces and scare them back into their cars

“It’s very meaningful to me, to capture an event that I’ve wanted to capture for a very long period of time.” Three photographers in New Zealand captured an atmospheric phenomenon that has rarely been photographed: red sprites, when lightning flashes above thunderstorms. Take a look.

my company that manufactures things that don't make you want to kill yourself has just been acquired by the kill yourself conglomerate

Went to a prayer service tonight at St. Mary of the Lake, where they have cardboard cutouts throughout the church representing parishioners afraid to come to Mass because of ICE.

Grateful Shred’s first set in Chicago tonight featured Franklin’s Tower, with the line “if you plant ice, you’re gonna harvest wind.” Damn, great choice.

BLM plans to auction oil & gas leases in the path of Wyoming's iconic wildlife migration corridors, like these 32 parcels totaling >38,000 acres that intersect a 165-mile corridor linking mule deer winter and summer ranges. Public comment open through November 17: eplanning.blm.gov/eplanning-ui...

Me at a Me at Montrose baseball game Beach 🤝 I’d like to see more bunting

Fittingly for this morning’s wintry weather, I saw a snow bunting at Montrose Beach.

What is the Times doing calling this extrajudicial murder spree “cartel strikes”? On what evidence do they ape the killers’ propaganda? www.nytimes.com/2025/10/23/u...

he's knocking down the literal white house and illegally murdering people by dropping bombs on international boats and the government has been shut down for weeks and it's just like....yep

“It was daytime, or maybe nighttime, one of the big two.” Really funny and fascinating piece.

Mike Johnson doesn't know sh*t

trump is demolishing our national symbols and selling the country for scrap to his corrupt donors

It’s hard to convey just how much Chicagoans are mobilizing against ICE. Don’t want to downplay the harm, or make it seem like a fair fight. But in neighborhoods across this city, ICE is getting chased by people blowing whistles and shouting. People are running TOWARD ICE to protect their neighbors.

christ almighty what is this guy doing www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...

Sunday President diarrheas on the country, Monday President bulldozes White House, Tuesday President steals $230 million, Wednesday President... fucks a horse? Let's see if he fucks a horse.
