Everyone keeps doing this, "well, once fill-in-the-blank comes out, we'll really have 'em." No, we won't. We have plenty now, and yet he is still there, desecrating the Presidency. How does any more information change that? /3

lol at Bari not knowing about the distribution process for foreign markets and not asking and no one volunteering the information.

Anyone who sends people to concentration camps to be tortured should be tried and, if found guilty, hanged like the Nazis they are.

News stories about the concentration camps we run in foreign countries have to be smuggled to a third country in order to be seen.

Now that these "freedom of speech" conservatives are in power, firing people for refusing to kiss Charlie Kirk's dead ass or asserting that Palestinians may be human, they're feeling especially oppressed when institutions fail to suppress speech critical of theirs. share.google/XFhNsE4Ipzs6...

This Yglesias piece in the NYT is horrifically bad. Almost every "fact" it cites is provably false. At best it is cocktail party banter from a pundit who knows nothing of energy. At worst, it was cut/paste from oil industry talking points. So, a rebuttal: www.nytimes.com/2025/12/18/o...

I have concerns about the redaction methodology the DOJ used in the Epstein files

You could be a climate and/or political refugee tomorrow. No matter how safe you feel right now. That’s how fast the world is changing. Act with that in mind—toward yourself, and towards others.

Easy to forget about these abusive men. There are just so many, it seems.

“Do you support ICE?” “Not really.” “Hell f*ckin’ nah.” These two dudes drink for free on us if we ever run into them in Minnesota 🍻

Saw a reading list including a Neil Gaiman title at the library today. Thinking of the bravery of @monicabyrne13.bsky.social, who stood up to Gaiman's abuse at great personal risk, I spoke to the librarian. She pulled the list. Bought a copy of The Actual Star to donate as a suggested alternative.

Muting a Black woman to claim the vote was unanimous is so incredibly on the nose

The US should simply do what all other industrialized countries do in order to not suffer thousands of mass shootings every year: saturate public spaces with surveillance tech. When we Canadians bring our assault rifles to schools, we know we're on camera. www.cnn.com/2025/12/18/u...

I'm a one issue voter. Anybody who shits on the less powerful is ruled out. If you want to trample on the homeless, or trans kids (hi Gavin Newsom), if you stay silent about what ICE is doing, if you are ok with Palestinians or Jews being singled out, please just fuck off and go away.

Zohran: "I mean, think about when you fly.  We have made it such a difficult experience to go through TSA that there's now a financial incentive to sign up for a separate program that can move you through it quicker. We have monetized the dysfunction."

I know why they don’t care but it is always funny to me how when trumpists and others bitch endlessly about other nations “sending” lethal drugs our way, they never seem to reckon with how we are sending all these other countries our demand for it, hence fueling violence, crime, and corruption in…

Amazing how many articles are just “I’m a white guy who didn’t get the promotion I wanted and the only answer to this problem that concerns every single one of us is to re-segregate the workplace”

They had six guys plus a whole team of scouts - many of whom were pulled off teams going after terrorists - to arrest one guy with three misdemeanors. No wonder they can't catch the Brown University shooter.

The older I get, the more my politics mature from childish, naïve beliefs like "the world is complicated and leaders have to make hard decisions" to more serious, adult principles like "hurting people is bad and helping people is good."

Still in a state of shock trying to process the tragic loss of one of the most gifted men in the entertainment industry & his wife when the Embarrassment-in-Chief disgraces common human decency with this repulsive, deranged statement. #NoWords 🤮

"What did the janitor say when he jumped out of the closet?" "Supplies!" No regrets.

I have very little time for Rand Paul, but he's not wrong to point out that depriving people of a democratic means to express opposition to their government leaves them in want of other alternatives, rather obviously including violence. share.google/1QsEBiyTVN1K...

I can imagine Netanyahu is not happy with Australia's efforts to combat antisemitism. After all, as this article points out, Australia has banned the Nazi salute, a gesture employed by many of Mr. Netanyahu's closest allies in the US, and defended by the ADL. www.theguardian.com/australia-ne...

Let’s be absolutely clear about this. Criticising Israeli foreign policy is not antisemitism.

The cultural impact of Rob Reiner cannot be understated. Legend isn't big enough a word. It goes to 11. You can't handle the truth. As you wish. I'll have what she's having. I'm your number one fan. You guys wanna see a dead body? The very idea of a bucket list. The West Wing. All from his movies.

Congresswoman Ilhan Omar's son was pulled over by ICE and forced to prove he is an American. Two options: 1) ICE deliberately targeted him. 2) ICE is stopping all non-White people without any probable cause and forcing them to prove they are citizens. Hard to say which option is scarier.

Why wouldn't Latino US citizens continue to support Trump? All they have to do is carry proof of citizenship at all times, and when they're brutally kidnapped off the streets by masked thugs, it's usually resolved before they're deported to Salvadoran torture centers! www.cnn.com/2025/12/14/p...

Why isn't the GOP taking the insanely self-defeating gift offered by Dems: temporarily stave off the pain of healthcare costs long enough for MAGA to carry the midterms? I suppose it comes down to the GOP not intending to hold power via free and fair elections. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

the world has changed

We all know Clarke's "sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic" Well we have corollary:

HERITAGE FOUNDATION: "Nice state ya got there. Pity if anything happened to it." INDIANA: "Oh, *do* fuck off."

Meta is targeting abortion providers and gay rights sites for takedown www.theguardian.com/global-devel...

And also hilariously international, coming to think of it 😄 A french guillotine from a swedish shop to act out a french coup to safe the people of America and Europe. I suggest we have some pasta and paella during lunch breaks, the south should have their stakes in it too 😎

If more than half the names put forward were Nazis and/or fascists can this fairly be called a memorial to the victims of communism? It sure seems like a memorial to Nazis and Fascists. The whole thing should be removed. ottawacitizen.com/public-servi...

No.

Good!

This is actually a good example of why the customer model is wrong. I wouldn't have chosen poetry writing, but UNC made me take a class. And it absolutely made me become a much better writer, with an eye to concision and an ear now trained to the rhythm of words. I'm a better historian as a result.

41 minutes of watching two shipwrecked men trying to flip a boat and signaling for surrender/help before firing on them again reminds me of the 9.5 minutes Derek Chauvin knelt on George Floyd’s neck, in that it’s an agonizingly long time to be killing helpless people who clearly posed no threat.

This is what it's liked when a whole nation falls for "the lesser evil" vote. Or maybe most didn't fall for it and got exactly what they wanted

If there is any policy that I absolutely cannot understand why people support, it is Canada's tariffs on Chinese EVs. "Impose a huge tax to prevent me from buying an inexpensive, good-quality, less environmentally damaging vehicle." Who do they think is benefiting from this? Canadian car companies?

Me talking about writing and my career and how book censoring and white supremacy both suck a lot and also how I got my side gig as the DJ to the nerds

This is a profoundly anti-Black country. Not just racist but ANTI-BLACK. It is foundational and everpresent.

Trump Appears To Doze During Stroke

Trump on camera appearing to be literally sleeping through cabinet meetings. Here's why that's bad news for Joe Biden. (with apologies to @nytpitchbot.bsky.social) www.nytimes.com/2025/12/02/u...

“In the end we have Pierre Poilievre disguised as a Liberal Banker.” - Chantal Hébert on @cbcradiocanada.bsky.social

At the risk of starting a Whole Thing: the reason vegans/vegetarians eat fake meat stuff is because meat tastes good and something that gives you a relatively similar experience without causing harm to animals is nice. It’s not that deep and it’s always weird to me when people use it as a gotcha.

Also most people are not raised plant-based, they may have a lot of memories or associations with certain cultural or family dishes. If they can make their grandma’s poutine but vegan or whatever and that makes them feel good, your job is to shut up and eat your own food.
