It’s been a tough animal week. My little girl is sundowning, and we’re trying a new medication today that hopefully will allow all of us to sleep through the night.

Donald Trump just blamed the left for hate speech, while delivering a hate speech at the memorial for a man who said there was no such thing as hate speech.

Until today I had never even considered the possibility of pyro at a memorial service. Honestly, this changes everything.

An update on the cat mass rescue I'm involved in here in NY: of a house of 35, we have 13 remaining. We need help, and we need places for animals to go. Please read the story and help if you can.

watching even a few seconds of the kirk funeral makes it clear a large quantity of this country is ready for full on nazi authoritarianism and we have to really grapple with how much we need to put a stop to this as quickly as possible

Has a real “don’t count the covid deaths” vibe.

He was so right.

FDR won 42 states in 1932, it wasn't by pandering to Hoover voters. Then Republicans called him a socialist for 4 years. Then he ran for reelection and won 46 states

Sometimes I demand that texting scammers pay me to talk to them.

DO YOU MEAN TO TELL ME that when you cultivate the support of conspiracy nuts that sometimes those leopards get hungry for faces?!? It can’t be!

Cue tape of Paul Pelosi reactions! Not from the rank and file, let’s see the leaders and media personalities!

An old joke I enjoy: Donald Trump calls Sen. Schumer’s office and asks to speak to him. “I’m sorry, Senator Schumer is not in today. It’s Rosh Hashanah.” “Well Rosh, can you take a message?”

It’s true that you’re probably not going to convert someone by roundly humiliating them for being a moron - but you’ll convert a lot of people who may have silently agreed in a totally permissive environment, but do not want to end up similarly labeled a moron.

Religious freedom for me not thee.

NEW: Air Force jets are doing ICE flights to Africa with transponders turned off, making them nearly un-trackable. This includes the third-country removal to Ghana and another secret flight. We figured out where it landed. From me for @rollingstone.com: www.rollingstone.com/politics/pol...

“limiting face coverings and opening officers up to prosecution would most likely hurt recruitment and drive officers from the state” So nobody will want to be a police officer if they’re not allowed to commit crimes with impunity?

GWAR crossed a major line at riot fest

counterpoint: every Trump voter can suck my asshole

I see just as many Cybertrucks broken down as I do driving. I don’t think the product is aging well.

why didn't it prevent the bullet from entering

If you're a cable host interviewing Tom Homan, at the very least you need to ask him about accepting bribes to influence government contracts. Or -- hear me out -- you could wordlessly pull a thick envelope from your coat pocket and slide it to him across the table with a stage wink.

Charlie Kirk Sept 27 2024: "Just so we're clear, the Haitians that are in Huntsville that are raping your women and hunting you down at night - it's only gonna get worse - unless Donald Trump wins There will be hundreds of thousands of Haitians brought into Alabama and they will become your masters"

I’m not voting for any of these out of touch dinosaurs any more. They won’t even address actual issues or put up a fight in any meaningful way.

I had a Citizen notice this morning that a friend had joined. He’s been dead about a decade, so that was a surprise.

Today, Canada recognises the State of Palestine.   My statement: www.pm.gc.ca/en/news/stat...

This beer tastes like I’m gonna sing “I Remember You” into his Ring camera

currently at record-high search interest for canceling disney plus. pulling kimmel is a bigger deal to the company's bottom line than any of the "woke" scandals of the past 5 years. i think news & entertainment corp execs need put more work into understanding their audience, & get off twitter

This clear declaration that Trump views the DOJ to be an entity designed to impose his political retribution - alongside the clear evidence that it is already being used in this way - is impeachable.

Critical part of the President's new $100,000 charge for H1-B visas: The Administration can also offer a $100,000 discount to any person, company, or industry that it wants. Replacing rules with arbitrary discretion. Want visas? You know who to call and who to flatter.

Cambodia and Armenia woke up not knowing they’ve been fighting each other According to the president, Armenia has also been fighting Albania and Aberbaijan - not to confuse with Azerbaijan

Why can’t we have column shifters any more? I can’t smack the shift handle from reverse to drive and peel out of the 7-11 parking lot in a Prius.

When you post things on X, you may get thousands of retweets and millions of views But any metrics from outside the site itself indicate orders of magnitude less engagement- few clicks, basically no sales or donations The simplest explanation is that X is now a site full of bots talking to bots

Antifa vows to designate the Trump administration a ‘major terrorist organization’

What’s more astonishing: 1) that the president clearly believes, and repeatedly suggests, that asylum seekers are people from mental asylums, or 2) that no journalist has ever challenged him on this and no mainstream media outlets have done any deep dives on this story?

Border Czar Tom Homan was caught by the FBI accepting bribes - on camera - to deliver government contracts in exchange for $50,000 in cash. Pam Bondi knew. Kash Patel knew. Emil Bove knew. And they made the investigation go away. A corrupt attempt to conceal brazen graft.

The reaction Disney fans are having makes think maybe the Harry Potter fans are just bigots who don’t care after all.

I mean. When the opposition is @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social and @schumer.senate.gov - expect Trump and his maga clan to remain in power. It’s that simple.

I’m rolling out this morning on an animal mass rescue. I feel like I have to take some of the organizational skills and focus on a larger political picture. Not quite sure how to start but I’ll figure it out. Today’s rescue linked below. Remember when blogs were a thing? Sigh.

There is something bothering me in particular about my town having a vigil for a Nazi. A recent No Kings protest was on the same site. A few local police there to keep an eye on things. The vigil had a huge police presence from multiple surrounding agencies. Doesn’t seem great.

I can’t believe my town held a vigil for a Nazi.

More thug government: “If you don’t falsely prosecute my political opponents, I will fire you.” Talk about weaponizing law enforcement.

It certainly is.
