Screen door, ass

ICE detain father shopping on Christmas Eve—then steal his family's groceries. Then 3 agents divvy up his paid for food—taking what they want for themselves. "Can I just get the wife's number to call and let her know?" woman asks. "No, guess he should've complied," agent says. Yakima, Washington

I was at a bar on a business trip. A drunk businessman at another table told the waitress, "Wow! I'd love to get into your pants." Without blinking an eye, she said, "No thanks. I already have one asshole in there."

This 20 years ago: My then (and now) producer Mike Danforth and I were talking about “The Golden Compass,” and I wondered what my daemon would be. He said, “A small hairless dog that wishes it was Ira Glass’ daemon.”

The real news in this article is what Cruise CEO said to @jeffreytumlin.bsky.social which is insane.

“Help!” cried Toad. “My best friend is trying to kill me!” “I’m only getting you ready for winter,” said Frog.

I think the ICE agents work hard and deserve a nice little Kavanaugh Snack, as a treat

12YO girl signed up to do “stand up comedy” at the talent show. 13YO boy decided to heckle her. Teacher started to tell the boy to leave her alone, but the 12YO comedian said “no, no, let him go, this is the closest he’s ever going to get to having a conversation with a girl.”

I want to stress, also, how when we approached the Trump White House with a lengthy comment request on our findings, the only things they disputed - among the batch of lawless, titanically rancid shit - were a) Stephen miller was NOT regularly made fun of by his former GOP Hill colleagues…

Here’s the U.S. government being officially religious in a country with no official religion.

A grandmother will spend Christmas with her family after ICE held her for nearly five months. She’s had a green card for 30+ years and lived in the U.S. since childhood. Her detention ended only after public and congressional pressure. www.star-telegram.com/news/nation-...

Nöel Coward called his style of work ‘touch and Gauguin,’ and although this sounds pretentious, it was his way of describing the colours he used. The majority of his paintings are of Jamaica; he first visited the island with Ian Fleming, in 1948.

On the Christmas Eve, celebrating the birth of someone whose family fled persecution and who preached tolerance, I’d like to share this very personal essay I wrote back in 2018, about opening our hearts a homes and getting so much more in return. www.motherjones.com/politics/201...

Elon found a way to make his Nazi cesspool worse. Amazing.

When we did this profile, the White House refused to make Stephen Miller available for an interview and took days to give us their response. It turns out they were collecting testimonials from people willing to say they like him

This encapsulates what has driven me crazy about since she was trying to get professors fired when we were college classmates — this air of condescension, like she’s working for the common good and just trying to get you to do the same. Obviously it’s grift but the TONE of it just kills me.

Holy shit it’s been truly great to have a bunch of fucking men I’ve never heard of in my life start DMing me their profound thoughts and explaining copyright law to me, even though they’ve never once had to weigh suing the federal government and I have!
