I'm going to ease up on the incessant reminders, but if you want your book, you need to take the final steps! And I want you to have your book!

I called them both! New Yorkers, so should you (To reach your state's senators, you can always go through the Capitol switchboard at 202-224-3121)

if dems take this deal, they take ownership of the shutdown pain. fucking champions of own goals..

I'm hearing the same thing. Dems are nearing a surrender. I'm shocked. Largest protest in history + best election night in years + polling showing we're kicking their ass in public opinion. And now Dems may cave. It ain't over til it's over, so please do call if you've got a Dem senator.

Call the United States Capitol switchboard at (202) 224-3121 and they will connect you with your senator's office. If you're represented by one of the squishier centrists, be sure to make a call. Now.

Sounds like the squishes in the senate caucus are ready to pull the plug with no ACA changes. This is real. If you want to register your opinion you shld call yr senator in the next hour. They not only want to reopen w/nothing. They want cover from their colleagues who still want to hold out.

ugh. after a stunning week of victories, Democrats are apparently accepting the offer R's have already made. a promise of a vote, which will assuredly land on a "no." Hope you like high premiums!

bad satire might as well be a.i. slop these days it's not helping

omfg "a promised vote"? if this is legit ... they're taking the republican offer.

A short thread about why the Kickstarter process is annoying at the end.

reposting for the afternoon shift. Backers, I really want you to get your books! Search your inbox/spam for a recent email from Kickstarter with the backer survey link. If nothing shows up, then do this 👇

hey mailchimp newsletter subscribers, I tried sending out a second email with corrected link for Kickstarter campaign pledge manager and it got garbled again -- the mailchimp interface must be fucking it up somehow. Anyway this is the link: www.kickstarter.com/projects/tom...

lol she got his ass and he knows it

would absolutely watch, though

Oh wow happy 8th anniversary of the worst day of my life to all who celebrate Only thought of this bc thinking about insurance, and how it was easier for me when married. Happy to say it doesn't haunt me quite like it once did.

motherfucker if it weren't for obamacare I would have had no insurance at all for the past eight years

Yes. I've seen people be dismissive of the efforts to make them unmask, but this is genuinely important.

I just got this week's This Modern World in my inbox and the third panel made me laugh out loud. If you're not on Sparky's List, it's worth it, just Doug Piranha levels of sarcasm every weekend right on your digital doorstep. Pretty sure there's a link to sign up on @tomtomorrow.bsky.social's page

Grateful for this Delta flight attendant for providing some clarity on the upcoming changes to flights during the holidays. Listen in ⬇️

Hey Kickstarter backers, there are still a bunch of you who have not filled out the final survey/paid for sale tax & shipping. I want you to get your books! so you need to do this asap. If you can't find the email, then here's what you need to do:

sincerely hope we don't get to this point, but lindsey graham is always one step away from finding out that his "allies" are ready to throw people like him in the camps

I got in a certain mood and rewatched John Wick last night and tonight I may continue to revisit the Wickverse, where every other person in Manhattan is a secret assassin

also, in case this is helpful to anyone:

I want you all to get your books! It's why I put myself through all of this for the past couple months -- more than that, if you count all the prep work I did on files over the summer!

no info = no book, I know it's a clunky system but I did not design it, it's just what we've got to work with.

lots of people popping up to say they've never heard of the plum poem when I literally just reposted it in the immediately previous post (somebody did one with the Zohran generator)

I was staying at a friend's house once and I was the last one up and I drank the last beer in the fridge and left a plum poem note about it and the next morning I found out my friend, an erudite person, had never heard of the plum poem. I have never been so disappointed.

What is happening?!?

about those kickstarter surveys:

Kickstarter backers, I love each and every one of you. But you do have to fill out the final survey you should have received by now if you want a book. Emailing us your address or leaving it in comments doesn't get you in the system! I know it's a bit clunky but it's what we've got to work with.

no one has been a more consistent critic of the american health care system than me, but oh my god, he's going to bulldoze health care next

idle thought, looking at my bookshelf: it's fitting that my big 25 year compilation ends just as Trump as getting started, given that my career basically has a dividing line: pre-trump and trump. Some day I'll kickstart a third oversized compilation to match those two volumes, but not soon.

it is darkly humorous that after all these years, the Republican health insurance plan ends up being to end health insurance

the richest man in the world, making videos of imaginary partners

Republicans: Nice country you got here, be a shame if it collapsed

sure sex is great but have you ever finally had time to give the kitchen a thorough cleaning after a really busy week

Nailed it.

OKAY KICKSTARTER BACKERS we're having a friday night party, by which I mean you should be getting a notice to give us your address and pay sales tax and the sooner you do that, the sooner we get books out the door. No address = no book.

this drunken cosplaying tv host is SO thirsty for shit to go sideways

🤡🤡🤡

HAPPY FOUR SEASONS TOTAL LANDSCAPING DAY TO ALL WHO CELEBRATE

I'm unreasonably proud of the artwork choice on this post.

Coming off a week of winning didn't sit right with a loser like Chuck.

they're trying to turn their chickenshit mask-wearing into a dark edgy cool batman vibe, and, nope. Just nope.

yeah the dissonance in that video is, all those guys it shows would be guys that Batman would be taking down

oh fuck this nonsense straight into the sun
