I can accept the Muppets being in commercials because they’re showbiz people. I cannot accept the Sesame Street Muppets being in commercials because they’re educators.

John Connor ass kid; everyone responsible for putting the kid into this situation should hang in the hague.

goddamn, dude.

What else could you possibly need?

Feeling overwhelmed with all of this. LISTEN. Another Louisiana resident (Marshawn is the only name we have) testifies against the state’s racial gerrymander, speaking truth to power up and down the hearing room and predicts how this story will end. Speak your truth, fight and believe.

bluesky — i am talking to you, all of you — need to internalize this and you need to tell everyone you know this. shampoo more expensive? republicans. burgers more expensive? republicans. beer more expensive? republicans.

Complain all the time in public! I bitch about prices in casual conversation with strangers in my red area. It's tremendously satisfying to bring down morale.

there are a lot of trump voters we aren’t ever going to convert and what we need to do is make them feel like the suckers they are and withdraw from electoral politics entirely

At least so far in practice, juries have de facto established it:

“Juror 96, let me buy you a steak, and let’s talk …”

Does anybody else not like it when stop motion is this smooth? Is it just me? Its too pretty-- you dont have to move the armatures a nanometer--move them a bit further between each frame! it would look more impressive to me

Adoration as a twin tf trigger, saying "you're so pretty..." Over and over as i gradually turn into you

I’m not a meme guy but I like this one

I myself have posted this image at least 100 times. I should do my part

in 2016 I made a comic titled “Mr. Gotcha” that would become most viewed and circulated image I’d create. Now it is the subject of a book by @glennf.com examining its history in online discourse. That One Matt Bors comic is live on Kickstarter—back it here: www.kickstarter.com/projects/gle...

In honor of 'Easy A's ruining education,' here is, in its entirety, JFK's successful admission essay for Harvard.

up late on may 1st? Have some reverse mermaids

Dems will take all 3 chambers and pass a subsidy for rural residents to get low interest business loans if they meet thenright criteria. SCOTUS will rule it unconstitutional. Dems give up and Republicans will take over again and continue the concentration camps that the Dems never closed. Just watch

Harris/Walz would’ve won if those fucking establishment consultant hacks had just gotten out of the way and let them say “These freaks are weird!” every day for three months and you’ll never convince me otherwise

This is true for all culture. For instance, millenials grew up watching cartoons made by boomers, and now gen Z is growing up watching cartoons made by millenials

Spring has sprung

Alright, now to properly start with Mermay

A bit of yearning for Mermay

Still going with mermay

Sen's Happy Fun Castle 🙂

this graduation speech moment is notable, and her amazed shock at having failed to read the room feels instructive. when you're inside the bubble, you think everybody else is. but everybody isn't.

US highway and road maintenance is funded by the gas tax. In 2022, Congress had to bail it out with $118 billion, it's about to go negative again. if we cancel the gas tax, well, what is that saying: "We knew the Roman Empire collapsed when the road broke and no one fixed it"

Happy Mother's Day

My favorite mother’s day cartoon from the stupendous @rosemarymosco.com

Performance check failed

A New Zealander was killed in an American concentration camp

It is wrong and criminal for government agents to kidnap someone, send them to die in a concentration camp, and disappear them, regardless of immigration status. But it's still worth noting she has a green card. The government doesn't even pretend this is about deporting undocumented people.

Some snails have eyes at the bottom of their tentacles like Leptopoma nitidum, the blushing snail 🐌 they still use their eyeless tentacles for sensing humidity, smells, and temperature. I hope this snail Sunday fact finds you well.

They’re like “You don’t care if yr partner watches porn? Surely you’ve just been brainwashed by the abusive patriarchy” Nah, babe…. That’s you! You are the one walking around with the painful feeling that yr partner’s sexual exclusivity to you is yr only value because that’s what you’ve been told!

Retractions never get proportional attention. This one should.
