Dear Louvre Thieves: How fast do you think you could get the Epstein Files?

We just got the White House East Wing job. Maybe we should ask for the money up front, T.

The East Wing, originally built in 1942 to protect the underground bunker from Nazi aerial bombings & attacks. Nazis literally deleting a structure built to protect our executive branch from Nazis is peak 1984. Fuck this regime & fuck the fascists.

@jheil.bsky.social Real LA natives call ourselves ANGELENOS. We never ever say "Los Angelenos." Please update your choice of words. From a proud Angelena, as a fellow Angeleno called me the other day. NOT all Valley Girls are rich and conservative. We are also strong liberals without a lotta money.

Prime example of white privilege in plain sight. Black kids get called adults to justify blame, while white adults get called “kids” to excuse their hate. They’re not boys and girls, they’re grown-ass men and women, and the receipts are in writing.

OK, so our "Secretary of War" currently has two big priorities: (1) murdering innocent fishermen in the Caribbean, and (2) endangering the lives of commuters in Southern California. Perhaps, we are seeing one of the downsides to having a drunk TV talk show chatterbox running our military.

The fact that there were no counterprotests shows that Trumpism and MAGA barely exist outside of social media. This movement has gradually collapsed completely within the population. — It’s difficult to fill the real world with Trump government troll bots.

Not a KISS fan, but easily managed a photo pass, August 28, 1977, at LA's Forum. They recorded "Alive II" during that tour. Time to rock n roll every night and party every day, which I did during punk, esp 1977!! www.loudersound.com/bands-artist...

#Amazon hates its customers. Clicking on "Reviews." Page forwards to Amazon Home Page. Repeatedly. Wanted to report it. Live Chat is BADLY Programmed. Phone help took info. Email said to respond using a link that has NO contact info! OR use Live Chat! AGAIN. OMG. AMAZON HATES ITS CUSTOMERS.

"These mofos* are crazy" should be the DNC slogan against the Rs for now + forever. TY brilliantly witty + honest @kamalaharris.com . Historical evening at the Getty in West LA. I missed that info in their emails. So proud she said that in my birth city. Rhymes with "Other Suckers" re @huffpost.com

Pam Blondi didn't use a laptop when testifying in front of Congress. WHY? Aren't laptops allowed? SO much easier to find data rather than leaf thru that big thing. Her expressions are horrifying! ENTITLED! Snarling smirks. Her eyes lethal, Mouth spit venom. I study + photograph FACES. She is scary!

I live in Portland and I don’t feel unsafe, there is no war zone here, life is as normal. Protests all exist within a single city block that doesn’t affect me at all. Protestors are all in plainclothes or dumb cosplay, peaceful and unobstructive to anyone other than ICE

Phil Ochs wrote this deceptively cheerful yet seriously angry response to the brutal murder + apathetic, non-existent help from many who heard Kitty Genovese's screams. “After all, I'm sure it wouldn't interest outside of a small circle of friends.”

Today is also the feast of Bruno of Cologne, founder of the Carthusian Order. Here is a graphic novel version of the founding of the order from a copy of Guigo's Consuetudines cartusienses printed in Basel in 1510. #medievalsky #earlyprinting #bookhistory 🧵

Breaking: Comey charged, as part of Trump's Hitleresque retribution plot America is now a failed democracy. We live in a dictatorship headed by a broken-brained imbecile www.politico.com/news/2025/09...

He talks about moving a World Cup game out of Chicago because it has high crime, which is interesting because there is no game slated for Chicago. But Dallas has a World Cup game, and Dallas has a higher violent crime rate than Chicago, and Dallas has a Republican mayor … oh, OK, I see it now.

Here's the ABC story that was the first to confirm Jim Comey's indictment. Please make sure to cite it, especially given ... everything. abcnews.go.com/US/former-fb...

After Comey got indicted on Trump's orders, can we start using the D word now, media?

Better "a rich white guy" is indicted first but ALSO the FORMER FBI Director!! He knows where bodies are buried. Will Comey use what HE knows? I sure hope so! He's always been so quiet, gentlemanly, wearing white kid gloves. Take off the gloves + put on the brass knuckles cos it's time! Whatta mess!

Good initial framing by NYT. Now I want them to say what it means, and what we should call it. I call it abuse of power. Tyranny. Authoritarianism. Political repression. Fascism.

The Onion, calling every failing theater nationwide: "Hi, would you like us to print you some money? We'd like to bring our movie to your screens."

Is this a spoof trailer of a real movie or a real trailer of a spoof movie or a spoof trailer of a spoof movie or a real trailer of a real movie? Questions smart people are asking, perfectly stated by ‪tyoder.bsky.social‬, @tyoder.bsky.social

Trump is absolutely cratering in new Quinnipiac poll: Overall approval: 38-54 Approval on economy: 39-56 Approval on trade: 39-54 On National Guard into cities: 42-55 On immigration, his "best" issue: 41-55 Trump is weak, unpopular, and failing. Treat him that way:

Another FABulous post from Andy Adams of @flakphoto.news . You can count on Andy to lift your spirits by sharing his enthusiasm for photographers. It's so hard to find joy at times. We photographers remind people to stop and look around, or trip down memory lane or expand one's vision. Enjoy! 📷

So when will Faux News fire Jesse and the US Marshals arrest him for making terrorist threats?

If you think that adults taking Tylenol hurt kids, just wait until you read what the adults in the Epstein Files were doing to them.

Congressional candidate Kat Abughazaleh was slammed to the ground by ICE agents on camera. If that’s public behavior, what happens in the dark?

He'll stop at nothing.

USA is a huge embarrassment not only to Europeana, but Americans. Following Bessent's logic, USA NEVER should have fought in Europe and WON TWO WORLD WARS. Obviously, Bessent is brilliant at making money (wanna guess how?). But a TOTAL FAILURE when it comes to US HISTORY and OUR AGREEMENT w/NATO. 🤬

Never mind your effing Ten Commandments, post the @jimmykimmel.com monologue in every classroom in America

Seems bad for our society when you can’t make racist terrorists the villains

"I steal the words from other the people in eight—no, nine—no, thirty—language. All equal good."

A law professor at the U.S. Military Academy at West Point claims in a lawsuit filed this week that the military college is banning opinions by professors in the classroom and some books and courses in a crackdown that violates the First Amendment.

I suspect we are, probably for our own mental health, underestimating the degree to which the Trump administration is dominated by the worst swingers imaginable

Tried to get my real ID. I had my license, my SS card and my birth certificate. I was not allowed to get my real ID because my birth name is different than my married name. Now I have to go dig up a marriage certificate. You know who wouldn’t have to do this? A man. Never change your last name.
