people have probably already gotten phds trying and failing to come up with a better political theory for trumpism than this

Just don't fucking take us down with you, Don.

Entering our Too Lazy to Manufacture Consent era

I don't even know what to say about what's going on with the US exacting regime change against Venezuela, other than Jesus fucking Christ.

all I’ve got is that the idea that you can commit any act of violence and say you were just executing a warrant is chilling and also common to US police

Did something extremely healthy for my mental wellness just now: I unfollowed r/transtimelines.

Here's what has entered the US public domain today: ALL QUIET ON THE WESTERN FRONT but not the 2022 version BETTY BOOP but not the human one AS I LAY DYING but not the band

Today Ella McCay gets added to the Public Domain

"You're a lot like the guy in that short story we read... ...Lenny."

I am so unhappy for one of my favorite movies to be right today..

lol people were The Poseidon Adventure posting just now. Fucking love that movie.

now that certain things are public domain, i'd like to announce my new webcomic: Mister Boop (dog version)

White supremacy is having a white man named "Paul Whiteman" dubbed "The King of Jazz".

NOW DO T4T PUPPY PLAY, AMERICAN BROADCASTING COMPANY!!!!!

Take THAT, the media of 1930!!!!!

Get ready to learn TTUN, Fielding.

About to celebrate the only US anniversary year that matters: 1976 (The hot dogs start flying out of the horn of plenty at around 2:08.) www.youtube.com/watch?v=LxAE...

what even was rednote

Isiah Whitlock Jr, best known for his role as Clay Davis on “The Wire,” has died. He was 71

lol my therapist just recommended to keep using men's private spaces (bathrooms) until I present more en femme, for my safety and that of other women. I'm four fucking years into transition, Christ.

FUCK ICE GO BIRDS FREE PALESTINE

Eagles fans tonight 🤝 leftists 13-12

WIP is going to be fucking toxic this week, win or lose.

Finally got myself one last holiday present: a signed photo of my favorite actor: the late, great M. Emmet Walsh

No one told me Grant Wood had two pairs of cheeks.

Can't wait to see the ASSPHRENOLOGIST license plates out on our highways.

Laughing my ass off on Christmas morning while watching Ronald Reagan getting his legs chopped off out of spite in KINGS ROW. Disability is a motherfucker, and Reagan was at least four motherfuckers.

For Christmas Eve, enjoy a supercut of my favorite tradition — Darlene Love on Letterman

Susan's Greetings from @skeiser.bsky.social!!!!!

Just a reminder the Ellisons launched the hostile takeover bid of WBD because they also want to control CNN in the way they’ve fucked with CBS News

Been having a really shitty week but was able to have two great sets tonight, including one where the audience was able to insult the comics anonymously, so I got the degrading comments I usually hear but at least this time I also got a chance to even the playing field, which was cathartic.

As long as the bastard's still alive, so am I.

I doubt Donald Trump is going anytime soon, but let's just say I'm playing Wye Oak on repeat.

Is there a reddit filter where you can block trans timelines from showing up on your feed? Asking for an extremely dysphoric and internalized transphobic friend.

"you're a man" ad hominem "you were born a boy" sunk cost fallacy "you're amab" false dichotomy "you have xy chromosomes" false equivalence "trans people are mentally ill" non sequitur "changing your sex isn't possible" skill issue

Hell, is there still even a Trans Lifeline?

Is there a text-based component of Trans Lifeline? It's helped me in the past, but the last time I used it I was sobbing and blathering so much the operator had to hang up several times.

I desperately need to go back inpatient, but doing so before Christmas would make me miss the few things I'll be able to look forward to for quite a while, and will be the fifth fucked up Christmas in six years (the sixth was immediately after I was hospitalized for over a month).

The extreme attack on transgender youth we are witnessing from a governmental stage was enabled by The Atlantic and The New York Times.

They're not going to fucking kill us. They're going to try. They won't.

Happy Holidays from the Dorley basement!

Thank you for all your support. I'm thinking of entering an inpatient center after the holidays but am working to get through 2025 without doing so, if only out of spite.

It sucks to keep having to do this. It sucks to have asked for thousands over the years and still be living in poverty. It sucks to feel sorry for myself, and not to go one holiday without feeling pitied by family and friends, only to use the money just to survive. I'm sorry, and I thank you.
