"The best we can" is reflected by his hiring "Only the best people" and his track record with COVID.

To be brave, gather the river in your bones, call it by its name, do not ask it to be ocean, only heart, only current, only true— you know what you know, darling, even if you cannot yet name it, even if you cannot yet speak, even if only you know what begins, what lies ahead in the deep. #TinyPoem

Best News of the Week!

Your vote is worth enough for those bastards to rig the shit out of the system

The 1st tariff refunds will cost US taxpayers $182 Billion. Today we are on the hook for more. Do we get a refund? Heck no. All stolen by Trump. No Wisconsin Republican complained. Screw them #Wisconsin #wipolitics #wisdems #wisgop #WI01 #WI02 #WI03 #WI04 #WI05 #WI06 #WI07 #WI08 #WIGov

Vampires are on the spectrum.

My mom told me about a new sewing shop opening near my parents. Might need to go check it out this weekend. www.tockcustom.com

If this is oozing out of the CIA means someone in there is *really fuckin' mad* with Tulsi and the halfwits over at DoD/WH.

There is no way this can possibly go wrong

They are wiping Black politicians off of the map and erasing Black voters. Y'all have no idea how bad this is for you.

Exactly.

Fuck Republicans.

Yeah, I know the rules. But truth is, I'd have shared it anyway. I've seen this clip twenty times. Still makes me smile.

The cruelty and pettiness of the Trump administration is beyond belief. They don't want to help the poor and needy, they want to punish them, to make their situation worse. The cruelty is the point.

RIP, Mert Lawwill. One of the most important motorcyclists ever. And one of the few that you just don't hear anything bad about.

Ok, heading to bed. Fingers crossed people don't play around with the building wide fire alarm pull stations tonight like they did twice last night so I can get uninterrupted sleep.

People are already peddling ivermectin for Hantavirus. The same people had never heard of Hantavirus 3 days ago. We live in the dumbest possible timeline.

when the right changes the constitutional order it's apolitical law; when the left does it it's activist partisan bench politics

At this point, I think he is just trolling us.

John Roberts is, at best, ill-informed. The court has been a political actor for as long as it has been appointed by politicians.

The definition of politics, right here.

Found another one to block folks.

"We're making petty, annoying changes that will make your work flow worse, but won't actually improve anything"

Remind me again about the Hispanic vote in the last General Election...

Yup - 😂

I would imagine having a working State Department and a working Secretary of State would stave off the problem of allies being surprised when you start using bases in their territory to re-hot a war. Ah well, I'm sure Steve Witkoff is a totally fine replacement. www.nbcnews.com/politics/whi...

I mean, given the considerable Venn diagram overlap between child abuse, MAGA, and evangelical/fundamentalist Christianity... this is a good point. See also: the popular narrative of GOP as a cruel dad who can't be reasoned with - and Dems as an ineffective mom who should protect, but doesn't.

I can't imagine why women tend not to report this kind of abuse. Just no idea why they might be reluctant.

The question is always "Why doesn't she stop him?" and never "Why won't he stop?" Mom gets the criticism + fury; Dad gets to keep being an asshole. Perception: he's a relentless, immutable force of nature. Reality: he's a big whiny baby with a fist, and no one expects any better from him.

He wants people in debt to their eyeballs so they’ll take shit sandwich jobs to never catch up on the debt. No different from a loan shark who keeps upping the vig.

The writer and ex-convict Lord Jeffrey Archer once wrote that gifts of alcohol at a wedding had 2 benefits: when you went to dinner you were assured of having good booze; and if the couple divorced, they wouldn't have your gift to fight over. This is not a post about Archer, weddings, nor divorce.

Outstanding

No navy, real or imagined, can control a strait like that without controlling the shore. This why corps of marines were invented. But is committing it worth it in this case? No. And even this benighted admin realizes that.
