Ya' know, if you live in a state where weed is totally illegal, like Wisconsin, smoking it in your car is an invitation to have your car searched EACH AND EVERY time you're pulled over for a traffic stop. Smelling it is all they need for PC. Why give them that leverage? DON'T SMOKE IN YOUR CAR!

The main difference between the two parties is this: - Democrats want to govern - Republicans want to win Nice system we’ve got here

QOTD: "The true measure of a man is how he treats someone who can do him absolutely no good" ―Samuel Johnson

Yet another proof for the long-standing IT theorem: "Anything that can be done FOR you can be done TO you!" DNS... it's always DNS... Personally, I blame @paulvixie.bsky.social!!! 😜

So true... <<When you encounter the young men of the new right — their faces all too often twisted in rage — “rational” is often not the first word that comes to mind.>> (free link)

I wish my brain were this clever... 🤣

Really? REALLY? Are there NO BETTER CANDIDATES IN MAINE WHO MIGHT NOT BE FUCKING NAZIS???? JFC, who vetted this fucking FASCIST???? Well, at least he's OUR fascist!?!? "Graham Platner, an upstart Democratic candidate... acknowledged that his skull-and-crossbones tattoo is a Nazi military symbol."

Let me say, the phrase "It's DNS. It's ALWAYS DNS" has never sounded more true than it does this week.

Well done, MAGA! Well done!

Remember, kids! The cruelty is the point!

This year's Nobel Peace Prize seems... misplaced. <<Machado has been an opposition leader in Venezuela for a very long time, and when I say opposition leader, I am speaking of someone whose notion of opposition extends to active participation in and support for US-supported coups...>> 🤔

I find it hard to muster up much more than a lukewarm indifference to Lord Dampnut's wrecking balls busting up the White House. Seriously, it's just a building, not a shrine. It's not like it's never been wrecked before. Between '48 - '52 Truman gutted the whole place. It's really not a big deal.

I need to keep reminding myself that there is a whole world out there that is NOT AMERICA... And that world is still relatively sane, the conservative prion disease has not yet taken hold. America is, it appears, run it's course as a republic.

Really, a big chef's kiss 😘 for this headline! www.theguardian.com/world/2025/o...

Jesus Fucking Christ... US courts that are more like CHINA'S? Let your Nazi flag fly, you pathetic tiny-fisted Visigoth...

My hat's off to BattleBeast for this wonderful, wonderful track! "Once upon a time, there was a puppet playing king Destroyed his whole kingdom like a Trojan from within An isolated and divided nation lives in fear The sky is bleak in silence, painted with tears" Who could this be? ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

"Arizona law enforcement agencies are largely rejecting a fast-growing ICE program ... citing the experience of the state’s largest sheriff’s office, which was booted from the program in 2009 after a federal judge found deputies racially profiled and violated the constitutional rights of Latinos."

This is the absolutely the coolest thing I’ve seen in a long time! Plasma inside the ST40 fusion reactor, filmed in color for the first time. 🤯 #Science #Plasma #Fusion #Unbelievable #CoolAF

Wow, Amazon is hosed... by their own IT infrastructure. Huge and ongoing outage. All the shipping is stalled, nothing Prime will deliver before Saturday.

I’m quaking in fear 🧐

Let's play "Spot the AI Image Fail!" 🌍

This is deeply satisfying...

I has a sad this morning. I was making a batch of baguettes but when the dough wasn't rising, I realized I'd forgotten to add the yeast. 🤦🏼 And I'm out of flour so I can't start another batch. I think I'll go back to bed.

Is anyone else seeing this from Amazon more and more? WTF am I paying for with Prime when every other order is late?

Mr. Franklin would be proud.

Mr. Jefferson would be proud.

Not unexpected, but still sleazy...

As American's question why we're being asked to hand Argentina $20 billion, the answer, as usual, lies in yet another bailout for America's stupidest wingnut billionaires.

QOTD: “One of the most wrong-headed and destructive myths in American life is that businessmen know what they are doing.”

The hate is real, palpable and totally understandable... <<Contrary to many analyses that have blamed Democrats for holding extreme positions on social and cultural issues that alienated swing voters, the dominant theme we observed was voters’ anger at the Democratic Party for failing to deliver.>>

Happy 10th Anniversary to an absolute BANGER!!! 🎉🥳🎊

Boy, if MAGAts could read, they'd be angry about this.

YouTube is down and people are losing their minds...

NEW @motherjones.com: Nobody in that GOP group chat praising Hitler or making racist comments was a “kid,” as JD Vance claimed today I tracked down their ages. (Weirdly, it seems nobody else did.) Eight of the 11 in the group chat range from 24 to 35. Ages of others are unclear. But… no “kids”!

Did anyone have "military coup in Madagascar" on their 2025 "World of Shit" bingo card?

Frightful Patch Tuesday gives admins a scare with 175+ Microsoft CVEs, 3 under attack!

Be afraid. Be very, very afraid.

I'm shocked, SHOCKED! Well, maybe not THAT shocked...

Too bad, so sad... 🤣

PASSIVE AGGRESSION TRANSLATED

Professional news in the United States is irretrievably broken.

"Anxiety is the dizziness of freedom." --Søren Kierkegaard

Oh eldritch horror, you are no match for the epitome of evil already stalking us! (www.wonkette.com/p/i-shub-nig...)

People were losing their fucking minds!!! "The [shipment] was short in one product that in Wisconsin almost certainly would get noticed if concession stands ran out early: There weren't enough brats....the kind of precooked, natural-casing product Wisconsin sold for years was being discontinued."

As I think more about where we are as Americans I find that the Democratic party offers nothing, only a counterweight to the GOP. It's not enough to just oppose GOP, you need to give us something to vote FOR, not just vote AGAINST. How about listening to Bernie?

AmeriKKKa the Beautiful...

HOLY FUCK!!!
