It’s not taking things too far to say he was “groomed”

I’m worried it can still get stupider

I used to credit him simply for being the stupidest person on Fox, which (a) he is, and (b) is quite an accomplishment, but (c) this is really kicking it up a notch.

Sorry, folks. Sounds like the civil war has been postponed due to white shooter

I imagine that it gave Charlie Kirk great pleasure to die as a martyr to the god of death he worshipped. I wish instead he could have died another way: of old age, peacefully, in a country where all his work had come to nothing, and he himself completely forgotten.

This is a Melissa Hortman appreciation account for the next 24 hours.

Wife: I'll buy a subscription to any publication that writes one honest story about the "masculinity crisis" that just says "Men want to be able to treat women like shit and still get laid" and just be done with it. There's no more depth to the discussion. There is no nuance.

Nihilistic, but if you say so

Women are lagging behind on going bankrupt on DraftKings, drinking themselves to death, and fist-fighting anyone who looks at them funny on the subway but they can catch up.

The Supreme Court is making an all-powerful president. But the one we have isn't all that interested in the job.

After federal troops forced a fugitive slave named Anthony Burns back into slavery in the 1850s, one Bostonian wrote, “we went to bed one night old-fashioned, conservative, Compromise Union Whigs and waked up stark mad Abolitionists.” The abuse of power radicalizes people. We are seeing that now.

#SalemMA has been my home since 1985 (excepting a few gap years). Here’s my list for visitors: Historical—the House of the Seven Gables Fun—Real Pirates Salem (haven’t been, but other locals say so) Dignified chill place—Ropes Mansion Garden Trashy stuff—The Magic Parlor 1/5 or so

Had the honour of taking part in the most extraordinary, ancient acts & celebrations, re-affirming commoners rights this week. Hungerford is (likely) the last place Hocktide is still observed in England. It means we kept & keep our commons, & a certain independence. Buckle up, it’s a wild ride… 1/14

People tend to dismiss VP Pence’s actions on J6: he was just doing his job, why should he get any credit for simply sticking to the letter of the law? But if it was so easy to do, why was he one of the very few in his party to do it? apnews.com/article/penc...

(carefully pouring a drop of wine back into the glass) I am announcing a 90 day pause on the FROGS, but the LOCUSTS will remain in place

Words can’t express how much Blondie meant to me back when (and now!). They were my gateway drug to punk rock and a whole amazing world of music. I didn’t know whether to link this post, or the song Dreaming with Clem’s exuberant drumming…so sad.

My Congressman @repsuhas.bsky.social is a true leader. He showed up today in Warrenton, Virginia for the #HandsOff protest. We need more leaders like him to hear the people and their cries for help
