My whole life, advocating war has been fed to me as “the adult position,” akin to drinking your coffee black or reading the business section of the newspaper. Let’s be very clear — war is the childish nonsense of impulsive destructive idiots playing baby-brained video games with real human lives.

Marco Rubio is reportedly saying Maduro will stand trial in US courts. Which means it’s now the US administration’s position that US courts can hold foreign presidents, but not the US president, accountable for crimes.

I will never deadname a trans person but I will absolutely deadname a bridge

WE MADE IT GUYS

My Christmas inflatables fighting the wind like marooned Japanese soldiers not knowing the war was already over.

I've got my hair cut 3 days ago and already it's in Eraserhead mode

i had to drop what i was doing to make this

In the first draft Marley told Scrooge “You will be haunted by three spirits, and a giant dancing octopus from another dimension." Maybe Dickens’ editors were right that the interdimensional octopus felt out of place. But I still feel something very beautiful was lost.

@drewmagary.bsky.social The Lovers Guide to the Williams-Sonoma Catalog?

It’s the “season of love and giving”…but this year, doesn’t it seem more like a “season of fear and taking”? Like many of you, I’ve been saddened by the human impact of draconian government budget cuts and how angry many housed Americans are at unhoused Americans. 🧵 1 of 9

Wow, gold, frankincense, AND myrrh. This is so great. My wife’s boyfriend’s baby is going to love it. Thank you so much.

The name "Popular Science" doesn't mean we shift our coverage depending on public opinion. It means we cover relevant subjects that are rigorously researched, reliable, and grounded in reality. And trans lives are grounded in reality. We see y'all. No matter what. www.popsci.com/science/tran...

Bank of America first started offering credit cards to women in 1974

and tiny tim, who was NOT in the epstein files,

if tumblr dies I need this video to make it's seasonal rotation here instead just in case, Happy holidays 🎄

Nancy Pelosi moved heaven and earth to get Henry Cuellar installed and keep Jessica Cisneros out. He was one of the three (D) defectors here. Everyone who ever stuck up for either of them is a dog's dick with a separate, smaller dog's dick for a brain

PUBLIC SERVICE ANNOUNCEMENT: there are way too many skinny Santa lawn inflatables around. He is a jolly, FAT man. If applicable to you, please correct this as soon as possible. Thank you.

Sorry Balatro. I loved you but it's hard to compete with a game that has 100 frickin endings.

Oh sure. The masses are yearning for their shitty auto insurer that spends way too much on advertising to be their shitty health care provider.

Pro-wrestling legend Mick Foley announced this morning that he's parting ways with WWE over the organization's "close relationship with Donald Trump," saying the president's "incredibly cruel comments in the wake of Rob Reiner’s death is the final straw for me."

We are parents of a trans kid and our family takes this very, very personally. If you intentionally make life harder for our beloved daughter, it’s EXTREMELY hard to think of you as an ally, to say the least. @amyklobuchar.com - you still send us requests for money, while hurting our kid. Disgusted.

We were able to ID the corpsicle: says he goes by Kringle. Is about 12 feet tall, 4-500 years old. Hell of a way to go.

HAPPY ANNIVERSARY TO THE BEST WIFE ON THIS PLANET OR ANY OTHER! Here's to six years and 600 more!

And I put up a giant inflatable Santa today. Just because you turn 40 doesn't mean you can't be a physical marvel.

Watching lots of Spongebob has also given me the insight that too many people on Bluesky post like they're Squidward. Before you reply to me ask yourself "would Squidward say this?"

behold, the platonic ideal of social media

America the Incredibly Off-putting

WHAT THE HELL THIS IS 100 PERCENT TRUE. I have no choice but to have a lobotomy now.

I have work I need to do, so here are some first run films I saw this year as MST3K screencaps: 🧵

Tubi is such a crazy streaming service. It’s like if the Criterion Closet was in a gas station

Trump Appears To Doze During Stroke

Our current government's stance is that if we die, regardless of cause, it's our own fault. Probably not enough french fries cooked in beef tallow.

Will Arnett was on Conan and told a story about how Conan dealt with the death of his parents by accusing Jason Bateman of killing them. It’s so funny.

My sister says she put up a "fence" to protect the Christmas tree from her cat, and I feel like a webcam to stream this epic battle is needed.

Who has made this 🤣

An absolutely brutal read. I got to go home without issue after my ablation but Dr. Parker did not. Support ProPublica's great work if you can.

Bovino and his ICE goons were not welcome and were locked out of the gas station.
