Sabrina Carpenter if you’re reading this I would treat you so much better than the potato chip guy.

Strange what some folks understand as political. This was absolutely an explicitly political performance.

Someone let her know

I get the idea here but it's weird to act like people said things when they didn't say them

Not only should we not rename Dulles, we should take away Reagan for even suggesting it

Once again, it turns out “fully autonomous” means “a guy in the Philippines.”

Bluesky is that special place where someone will take time out from serialposting about how ICE can never defeat one mid sized midwesern city to post about how ICE is going to commandeer every voting booth in the US and all is lost

do you all have a moment to discuss the Good News of seitan

First trip on the new/old yellow line to/from Greenbelt

Not bad given that I mostly ride my own bike and metroed for awhile after the car hit me

Nobody's going to watch the Turning Point Halftime Show because complaining about the real halftime show is an important part of right wing culture.

This is who runs this account

"new tone" was a totally imaginary story that the media invented to try to staunch the bleeding Trump was suffering this weekend and help move past what turned out to be a completely disastrous story for the administration

I still can't believe we lost every one of them that day

body cams on senators, on the other hand—

Many don't realize that this is the inside of a lunchbox

this is a fake problem. no one is saying this to regular, offline people who are coming around. they’re saying it to people who are engaged in professional political analysis who committed professional malpractice by scolding people who saw what was coming. no, those people shouldn’t get a break.

Turns out all those years of grumbling about purple haired SJWs was indicative of an erotic fixation

the president wont see your posts making fun of how he's looking these days but your friends whose skin seems to be sloughing off in wet discolored chunks as the psychic weight of their craven wretchedness becomes manifest will

Ahahahahaha

This is just the perverse version of the "turning the racism dial" dril tweet

Democrats waiting for polling to tell them whether having a gestapo is good or bad, wonder why everyone hates them
