This is so astoundingly wrong and illogically argued that it's almost funny. But only almost.

I can’t believe they’re doing this to the only person on earth who’s won the FIFA peace prize.

My favorite couple enjoying Christmas ❤️🎁❤️

A favorite photo from December 2020, taken on the Ida Street bridge in Mt Adams.

Here we go... getting Christmassy! Hope your day is what you need it to be.

"I hope you have a really A really, really, Willie nice Christmas And may we all stay higher than the angel on top of the tree" youtu.be/lwCHXJojyys?...

Vile trash.

I tried watching Goodbye June. Sorry, nope. I don't need to watch selfish people fight over their mom's death. Is my family abnormal? Because we don't fight over the really serious stuff like that. We fight over which football team to cheer for or which route to take to the store.

"I have also felt as if one warm breath might drop me, but here I am still standing."

Last winter, I started rewatching ER, but when I got "Love's Labor Lost," I couldn't go on. Finally got back to it recently. Season 3, episode 1...Omar Epps as Dr Gant shows up, and now I know there's another impossible to rewatch episode coming up before too long. That pager...it haunts me.

"I have also felt as if one warm breath might drop me, but here I am still standing."

!! Here’s a link to full video of the 60 Minutes segment that Bari Weiss killed last minute, via @jasonparis.bsky.social: is.gd/paU8Ko (It was uploaded to the Global TV app in Canada, seemingly by accident, and has now been taken down)

i have a firestick (i know) and the home page has been telling me i can "watch antiques roadshow for free." bitch antiques roadshow has always been free!! that's public television! preserve over the air audio and video broadcast, esp independent/public ones

Most surprising thing about Bari Weiss is how she’s doing exactly what everyone said she would.

I heard this song today and immediately thought of this scene. It's a song that's been in a lot of movies and shows, but this is a perfect use of it if you ask me.😎 youtu.be/voHQofHyKnA?...

YES!

I hope the ghost of Edward R. Murrow haunts Bari (and all the losers who refuse to tell her to fuck off) until she's curled up in a corner mumbling, "I had a column once."

"Midwinter" by Nadia Colburn from I Say the Sky, University Press of Kentucky, 2024.

Mandy and Kathryn are national treasures!

This poem.🖤 Sweet dreams.

I had to move a small table to the corner by my bed for my CPAP machine. Switched it with my little childhood rocker with my ~60-year-old Winnie the Pooh. Now it's in my reading corner, so it looks like it's also a convo with Pooh corner. I like it.

The fact that anyone would want this guy, who parrots the current criminal in chief, to run in 2028 is stunning to me. I want someone who actually works for the American people and doesn't waste time (their own or their staff's) on this kind of bizarre behavior.

The thread reveals a willingness to literally destroy the lives of young people in order to win favor with bigots. If I believed in hell, I'd be certain Sulzberger et al are headed there.

You mean after a mass shooting you can do more than just send “thoughts and prayers”? www.washingtonpost.com/world/2025/1...

Q for @nytimes.com : WTF kind of column would Brooks be writing that needs to be informed by a registered sex offender/pedophile?

David Brooks? On "a tonic for a society in moral and spiritual crisis"? Good lord, Atlantic, you've fucked up a lot lately, but this is monumental.

Everyone who is having a pleasant holiday season because they aren't in the Epstein files, step forward. Not so fast, David Brooks.

The casting department is working over time on choosing faces to illustrate the banality of evil.

Oh good lord. Talk about not reading the room. Fuck all the way off.

Yikes! That's awful , and not what I'd expect from @propublica.org It means they do not care about being trustworthy.

Felt the need for some holiday cheer, so I'm listening to my favorite version of my favorite Christmas song. youtu.be/BUuevx3AvYY?...

This quote from the WaPo rocks. Artists with integrity are such badasses.

I showed these to my husband last night and he made me laugh with this one: "He looks like he's in a lover's spat with the lamp and the lamp is winning." bsky.app/profile/astr...

Well, that will solidify my recent non-watching choice.

"I don't mean to be horribly offensive..." [proceeds to be horribly offensive]

The Reagan age, during which a neoliberal rhetorical style associated with Reagan shaped both GOP & Dems, ran from 1980-2016, clearing the way for the even more dishonest Trumpocene. Newsom can’t decide whether he wants to rhetorically be like Trump or Reagan. Neither choice supports democracy.

Once again, I heartily say, fuck Gavin Newsom.

My personal social media rule: if you have no idea what people are talking about, you're not obligated to talk about it. In fact, it'd be best not to talk about it. And you definitely don't need to post a thread about how you don't know what people are talking about & thus have no opinion about it.😎

I started watching A Murder at the End of the World, and am not sure I can continue. As a person w/ an uncommon name, it's odd to watch a TV show w/ a main character who has that name. Any other time I hear my name, I know it's me being spoken to/of. Weird to keep hearing it not in reference to me!

Some Dems have told themselves only ~1% of the population is trans so they can dip their toe in the anti-trans filth and come out clean. I don't have any trans family members—but it still makes me irate. I see it as a huge red flag, a sign you are unprincipled and untrustworthy. And I'm not alone.

The other problem is it's whiny bullshit written by a guy who's a pathetic little dick.

It's always the most obsessed anti trans people who get caught with CSAM.

Hilarious (and only slightly modified from reality) thread.🤣

It's been so long since I watched This is Spinal Tap that I'd forgotten a lot. Watching now, and I don't know how in the world they kept straight faces through lines like, "You can't really dust for vomit." I laughed so hard, I'm sure I scared the neighbors.
