Before and After

Someone got a massive haircut

This is perfect. The DOJ's embarrassing snafu with disappearing redactions was the fault of Elon Musk. Musk cancelled government subscriptions to Adobe programs that would have made the redactions permanent. What a pack of fools.

Merry Christmas

The DOJ identified at least 10 co-conspirators who worked with Epstein and Maxwell. It’s obvious to anyone with two eyes that Epstein and Maxwell were engaged in organized crime, yet NO ONE ELSE involved in Epstein’s sex trafficking ring has faced criminal charges. Why?

I hate bringing this up, but that letter perfectly echoes Trump’s Access Hollywood tape. I don’t know if younger people know the slang for “snatch” anymore, but it is wild that a returned letter written by Epstein in the prison cell where he died directly states that Trump groped girls.

The NY Times headline reads “Vance Refuses to Take Sides in G.O.P. Fight Over Bigotry." This is false. He took a side: that of neo-Nazis and other assorted bigots and nuts. I think he thinks it's strategic. An analysis. www.salon.com/2025/12/23/j...

They just fucking say these things out loud

We left the house

It was raining again and he was feeling that cabin fever so we went to Home Depot to walk around

Now seems like a swell time to point out that Frontline just released this excellent 11-minute mini-documentary about what happened inside CECOT.

What if we kissed in the assassination tent 🥹👉👈

Nom nom nom

Yes, actually, I am mad

Eww

Tapper: This is one of the documents the DOJ released. It’s 100 pages. It’s all black. That’s the transparency we’re getting.

Instead of addressing the real problems facing families, Republicans are inserting themselves between families and their doctors as they make the most personal and private decisions. I will never back down from fighting this sick and calculated attempt to erase trans Americans.

Limping ahead toward a little vacation

Jesus Christ, RFK Jr. finding a new way to kill children

Sounds like I need to check out waterfox, really fucking annoying because Mozilla had great ties here in Eugene and I was involved in some civic arts projects with them. You’d think Mozilla would be smart enough to know why people picked them over Google in the first place.

I’m sorry, but these people are categorically evil

Just trying to get through the year

AOC: I want to remind you where the real crime is. It's in the oligarchs taking $170 billion of our money from health care and food assistance and public programs and taking that and funneling it into a secret police program.

Is this the new Divinity game?

My theory is that he had an unhealthy obsession with a young woman who he felt slighted by

The University of Oregon demolished the dorms I lived in, had the Caspian and now Espresso Roma demolished, the Glenwood was leveled… doesn’t much feel like it used to around here, and I don’t like it a bit.

We all know that Ken Starr only meant for Democrats

Fuckin thanks

Just for me

Waiting, thought he heard something

MAGAZINER: How many veterans have you deported? NOEM: We haven't deported veterans MAGAZINER: We are now joined on Zoom by a combat veteran you deported to Korea

This is just bizarre theft

Yesterday, I testified on anti-feminist ideology before a House of Commons committee. The internet handled it…about as well as you’d expect. The part that I didn’t necessarily expect, however, was the unhinged nature of some of the questions I’d be asked. Come with me behind the scenes:

When I lived in Russia, my Russian boss would make me meet him at his flat and walk to work. On the way there he’s stop at playgrounds and try to do pull-ups, almost exactly as ineffectively. Eventually, he bought a pull-up bar for the office and forced his workers to do competitions.

Oh I see

Finished strong on my Drives at the end of this Overwatch season.

I’m considering whether to ever do business with AVID again. They auto-renewed my Pro Tools license for $199 when the auto-renew was shut off and my license had been renewed for a year less than a week earlier. They didn’t immediately give me a refund, and I’m waiting for my money back.

Trump is cooked

‘Pantsed’ means to have pants removed, so what do you call having pants put on? Enpantsed? Certainly not unpantsed or depantsed.

Remember that Bush started this with Jeff Gannon. Actually, Matt Gaetz is very much in the mood of Jeff Gannon.

Mr. Know-Nothing Man’s schtick has worn thin.

Slow inflation to infinity is great for long term economic health, but it hasn’t been slow. We can’t keep pace with inflation if wage inflation don’t match price inflation. Republicans, wanting feudalism, have been pushing wage deflation and price inflation my whole life.

Weird how isolationist Republicans are also expansionist imperialists at the same time. Their ideology is a complete mess because it is only rooted in greed.

Don’t wanna go back to work tomorrow
